Description
This book focuses on systems architecture optimization. The first two parts are a concise presentation for classical optimization methods. Part three presents recent advances in systems architecture optimization. Part four outlines detailed engineering applications.
"The title of this book perfectly sums up the topic and scope of the text: optimization algorithms. A specialist in aerospace engineering, Abdelkhalik (Iowa State Univ.) provides a solid background review of the application domains and traditional approaches to optimization techniques. This textbook is a suitable reference for graduate students, post-docs, faculty, and engineers working on optimization algorithms to solve similar problems in the space and renewable energy sectors."
