چکیده

We provide an eeective and eecient implementation of a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm for the general large scale nonlinear programming problem. In this algorithm the quadratic programming subproblems are solved by an interior point method that can be prematurely halted by a trust region constraint. Numerous computational enhancements to improve the numerical performance are presented. These include a dynamic procedure for adjusting the merit function parameter and procedures for adjusting the trust region radius. Numerical results and comparisons are presented.

RESOLUTION OF NONLINEAR OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS SUBJECT TO BIPOLAR MAX-MIN FUZZY RELATION EQUATION CONSTRAINTS USING GENETIC ALGORITHM

This paper studies the nonlinear optimization problems subject to bipolar max-min fuzzy relation equation constraints. The feasible solution set of the problems is non-convex, in a general case. Therefore, conventional nonlinear optimization methods cannot be ideal for resolution of such problems. Hence, a Genetic Algorithm (GA) is proposed to find their optimal solution. This algorithm uses th...
