Control and Optimization of Interfacial Flows Using Adjoint-Based Techniques
The applicability of adjoint-based gradient computation is investigated in the context of interfacial flows. Emphasis is set on the approximation of the transport of a characteristic function in a potential flow by means of an algebraic volume-of-fluid ...

On one condition of absolutely continuous spectrum for self-adjoint operators and its applications [PDF]
In this work the method of analyzing of the absolutely continuous spectrum for self-adjoint operators is considered. For the analysis it is used an approximation of a self-adjoint operator \(A\) by a sequence of operators \(A_n\) with absolutely ...

Comparison of Direct and Adjoint k and α-Eigenfunctions
Modal expansions based on k-eigenvalues and α-eigenvalues are commonly used in order to investigate the reactor behaviour, each with a distinct point of view: the former is related to fission generations, whereas the latter is related to time. Well-known

Shooting continuous Runge–Kutta method for delay optimal control problems [PDF]
In this paper, we present an efficient method to solve linear time-delay optimal control problems with a quadratic cost function. In this regard, first, by employing the Pontryagin maximum principle to time-delay systems, the original problem is converted

Geometry of Continuous Adjoint Newton's Method for Bivariate Quadratics
Newton's method is a classical iterative approach for computing solutions to nonlinear equations. To overcome some of its drawbacks, one often considers a continuous adjoint form of Newton's method. This paper investigates the geometric structure of the trajectories produced by the continuous adjoint Newton's method for bivariate quadratics, a system ...

Leaveraging The Continuous Adjoint Method For Industrial Scale Application
One of the fastest growing fields in CFD research is adjoint optimization. Adjoint methods are widely used by people in industry to optimize their products. Drag force minimization of a car, lift force maximization of aeroplanes and minimization of power losses in ducts are some of these optimization problems.
