Opis

This textbook presents key concepts and algorithms available for solving design optimization problems, with simple examples to demonstrate.

Recenzje

'Principles of Optimal Design, third edition, offers an excellent combination of depth and breadth of fundamentals of mathematical modeling of systems design. Students and practitioners will find the textbook a great starting point to learn about the systems design methods and optimization theories from the fundamentals to the advanced numerical methods. The recent addition of the decomposition-based optimization method and analytical target cascading is a nice expansion to the traditional optimization methods. I use this textbook to teach graduate and advanced undergraduate students who have basic understanding of numerical analysis. Students appreciate the spectrum of contents and they become ready to apply what they learn from the textbook to complex systems design cases. I highly recommend the textbook.'
