R¨uckmann School of Mathematics, University of Birmingham, Birmingham B15 2TT, United Kingdom [email protected] November 15, 2012 Abstract A numerical study on two challenging MINLP space applications and their optimization with MIDACO, which is a recently developed general purpose optimization software, is pre- sented. The applications are in particular the optimal control of the ascent of a multiple-stage space launch vehicle and the space mission trajectory design from Earth to Jupiter using mul- tiple gravity assists. Additionally an NLP aerospace application, the optimal control of an F8 aircraft manoeuvre, is furthermore discussed and solved. In order to enhance the opti- mization performance of MIDACO a hybridization technique, coupling MIDACO with a SQP algorithm, is presented for two of the three applications. The numerical results show, that the applications can be solved to their best known solution (or even new best solutions) in a reasonable time by the here considered approach. As the concept of MINLP is still a novelty in the field of (aero)space engineering, the here demonstrated capabilities are seen as promising.

    Treball Final de Màster MÀSTER EN ENGINYERIA INFORMÀTICA Escola Politècnica Superior Universitat de Lleida Mòdul d’Optimització per a Recursos del Transport Adrià Vall-llaura Salas Tutors: Antonio Llubes, Josep Lluís Lérida Data: Juny 2017 Pròleg Aquest projecte s’ha desenvolupat per donar solució a un problema de l’ordre del dia d’una empresa de transports. Es basa en el disseny i implementació d’un model matemàtic que ha de permetre optimitzar i automatitzar el sistema de planificació de viatges de l’empresa. Per tal de poder implementar l’algoritme s’han hagut de crear diversos mòduls que extreuen les dades del sistema ERP, les tracten, les envien a un servei web (REST) i aquest retorna un emparellament òptim entre els vehicles de l’empresa i les ordres dels clients. La primera fase del projecte, la teòrica, ha estat llarga en comparació amb les altres. En aquesta fase s’ha estudiat l’estat de l’art en la matèria i s’han repassat molts dels models més importants relacionats amb el transport per comprendre’n les seves particularitats. Amb els conceptes ben estudiats, s’ha procedit a desenvolupar un nou model matemàtic adaptat a les necessitats de la lògica de negoci de l’empresa de transports objecte d’aquest treball. Posteriorment s’ha passat a la fase d’implementació dels mòduls. En aquesta fase m’he trobat amb diferents limitacions tecnològiques degudes a l’antiguitat de l’ERP i a l’ús del sistema operatiu Windows. També han sorgit diferents problemes de rendiment que m’han fet redissenyar l’extracció de dades de l’ERP, el càlcul de distàncies i el mòdul d’optimització.

  • Nonlinear Mixed Integer Based Optimization Technique for Space Applications
    Nonlinear mixed integer based Optimization Technique for Space Applications by Martin Schlueter A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Mathematics The University of Birmingham May 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract In this thesis a new algorithm for mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) is developed and applied to several real world applications with special focus on space ap- plications. The algorithm is based on two main components, which are an extension of the Ant Colony Optimization metaheuristic and the Oracle Penalty Method for con- straint handling. A sophisticated implementation (named MIDACO) of the algorithm is used to numerically demonstrate the usefulness and performance capabilities of the here developed novel approach on MINLP. An extensive amount of numerical results on both, comprehensive sets of benchmark problems (with up to 100 test instances) and several real world applications, are presented and compared to results obtained by concurrent methods. It can be shown, that the here developed approach is not only fully competi- tive with established MINLP algorithms, but is even able to outperform those regarding global optimization capabilities and cpu runtime performance.

  • Optimization of Circuitry Arrangements for Heat Exchangers Using
    Optimization of circuitry arrangements for heat exchangers using derivative-free optimization Nikolaos Ploskas1, Christopher Laughman2, Arvind U. Raghunathan2, and Nikolaos V. Sahinidis1 1Department of Chemical Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA 2Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, Cambridge, MA, USA Abstract Optimization of the refrigerant circuitry can improve a heat exchanger’s performance. Design engineers currently choose the refrigerant circuitry according to their experience and heat exchanger simulations. However, the design of an optimized refrigerant circuitry is difficult. The number of refrigerant circuitry candidates is enormous. Therefore, exhaustive search algorithms cannot be used and intelligent techniques must be developed to explore the solution space efficiently. In this paper, we formulate refrigerant circuitry design as a binary constrained optimization problem. We use CoilDesigner, a simulation and design tool of air to refrigerant heat exchangers, in order to simulate the performance of different refrigerant circuitry designs. We treat CoilDesigner as a black-box system since the exact relationship of the objective function with the decision variables is not explicit. Derivative-free optimization (DFO) algorithms are suitable for solving this black-box model since they do not require explicit functional representations of the objective function and the constraints. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we compare four mixed-integer constrained DFO solvers and one box-bounded DFO solver and evaluate their ability to solve a difficult industrially relevant problem. Second, we demonstrate that the proposed formulation is suitable for optimizing the circuitry configuration of heat exchangers. We apply the DFO solvers to 17 heat exchanger design problems. Results show that TOMLAB/glcDirect and TOMLAB/glcSolve can find optimal or near-optimal refrigerant circuitry designs arXiv:1705.10437v1 [cs.CE] 30 May 2017 after a relatively small number of circuit simulations.

E. Crooks – Field Guide to Probability Distributions Preface: The search for GUD A common problem is that of describing the probability distribution of a single, continuous variable. A few distributions, such as the normal and exponential, were discovered in the 1800’s or earlier. But about a century ago the great statistician, Karl Pearson, realized that the known probabil- ity distributions were not sufficient to handle all of the phenomena then under investigation, and set out to create new distributions with useful properties. During the 20th century this process continued with abandon and a vast menagerie of distinct mathematical forms were discovered and invented, investigated, analyzed, rediscovered and renamed, all for the purpose of de- scribing the probability of some interesting variable. There are hundreds of named distributions and synonyms in current usage. The apparent diver- sity is unending and disorienting. Fortunately, the situation is less confused than it might at first appear. Most common, continuous, univariate, unimodal distributions can be orga- nized into a small number of distinct families, which are all special cases of a single Grand Unified Distribution. This compendium details these hun- dred or so simple distributions, their properties and their interrelations.
