We walk through an optimization problem step by step, clearly explaining how to identify variables, set up the correct function, apply derivatives, and find maximum or minimum values. Each step is ...
Abstract: The present work proposes a methodology to the problem of short-term economic dispatch of radial and meshed power systems by means of nonlinear programming (NLP). The problem posed will be ...
ABSTRACT: This paper is concerned with the optimal design of an obstacle located in the viscous and incompressible fluid which is driven by the steady-state Oseen equations with thermal effects. The ...
ABSTRACT: In this paper, we propose a new approach for a class of optimal control problems governed by Volterra integral equations which is based on linear combination property of intervals. We ...

Abstract: We propose new dominance relations that can speed up significantly the solution process of nonlinear constrained dynamic optimization problems in discrete time and space. We first show that ...
