چکیده

In this paper we introduce a modified penalty function (MPF) method for solving a problem which minimizes a nonlinear programming subject to inequality constraints. Basically, this method is a combination of the modified penalty methods and the Lagrangian methods. It treats inequality constraints with a modified penalty function and avoids the indifferentiability of max {x, 0}. This method alternatively minimizes the MPF and updates the Lagrange multipliers. It converges linearly for a large enough penalty parameter under the standard second-order optimality conditions and superlinear convergence can be attained by increasing the penalty parameter after updating Lagrange multiplier step by step. Numerical experiments show that the proposed method is considerably faster than the method based on classical penalty function.

A Neural Network Method Based on Mittag-Leffler Function for Solving a Class of Fractional Optimal Control Problems

In this paper, a computational intelligence method is used for the solution of fractional optimal control problems (FOCP)'s with equality and inequality constraints. According to the Ponteryagin minimum principle (PMP) for FOCP with fractional derivative in the Riemann- Liouville sense and by constructing a suitable error function, we define an unconstrained minimization problem.

VOLUME MINIMIZATION WITH DISPLACEMENT CONSTRAINTS IN TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF CONTINUUM STRUCTURES

In this paper, a displacement-constrained volume-minimizing topology optimization model is present for two-dimensional continuum problems. The new model is a generalization of the displacement-constrained volume-minimizing model developed by Yi and Sui [1] in which the displacement is constrained in the loading point. In the original model the displacement constraint was formulated as an equali...

Global Competitive Ranking for Constraints Handling with Modified Differential Evolution

Constrained nonlinear programming problems involving a nonlinear objective function with inequality and/or equality constraints introduce the possibility of multiple local optima. The task of global optimization is to find a solution where the objective function obtains its most extreme value while satisfying the constraints. Depending on the nature of the involved functions many solution metho...
