A parallel, filter-based, sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm is implemented and tested for typical general-purpose engineering applications. Constrained engineering test problems, including a finite element simulation, with up to 512 design variables are considered. The accuracy and serial performance of the filter-based algorithm are compared against that of a standard SQP algori...

the main purpose in this paper, to express strong algorithmic optimization in their ability to detect expression target of sar that use in aircraft, plane and satellites to observe the target on the ground. for this purpose,the sar technology and its applications are introduced. previous algorithms used in this field with poor diagnosis and appropriate speed is low, like means and fuzzy and pso...

This paper is concerned with a Superlinearly feasible SQP algorithm algorithm for general constrained optimization. As compared with the existing SQP methods, it is necessary to solve equality constrained quadratic programming sub-problems at each iteration, which shows that the computational effort of the proposed algorithm is reduced further. Furthermore, under some mild assumptions, the algo...

In this paper a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented to design a compact stepped triangle shape antenna in order to obtain the proper UWB bandwidth as defined by FCC. By changing the various cavity dimensions of the antenna, data to develop PSO program in MATLAB is achieved. The results obtained from the PSO algorithm are applied to the antenna design to fine-tune the bandwi...

rainfall-runoff modeling is most important component in the water resource management of river basins. the successful application of a conceptual rainfall-runoff model depends on how well it is calibrated. the degree of difficulty in solving the global optimization method is generally dependent on the dimensionality of the model and certain of the characteristics of object function. the purpose...

Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a metaheuristic optimization algorithm that owes much of its allure to its simplicity and its high effectiveness in solving sophisticated optimization problems. However, since the performance of the standard PSO is prone to being trapped in local extrema, abundant variants of PSO have been proposed by far. For instance, Fuzzy Adaptive PSO (FAPSO) algorithms ...

A sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm generating feasible iterates is described and analyzed. What distinguishes this algorithm from previous feasible SQP algorithms proposed by various authors is a reduction in the amount of computation required to generate a new iterate while the proposed scheme still enjoys the same global and fast local convergence properties. A preliminary imp...
