ON OPTIMUM DESIGN OF FRAME STRUCTURES

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2020
Optimization of frame structures is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem, which is currently solved to local optimality. In this contribution, we investigate four optimization approaches: (i) general non-linear optimization, (ii) optimality ...

Barrier Algorithms for constrained Non-Convex Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we theoretically show that interior-point methods based on self-concordant barriers possess favorable global complexity beyond their standard application area of convex optimization. To do that we propose first- and second-order methods for

Direct Data-Driven Portfolio Optimization with Guaranteed Shortfall Probability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper proposes a novel methodology for optimal allocation of a portfolio of risky financial assets. Most existing methods that aim at compromising between portfolio performance (e.g., expected return) and its risk (e.g., volatility or shortfall ...

A Multifunctional Ionograsper Enabling Ion‐Redistribution Proximity Sensing and Structural‐Reconfiguration‐Driven Bidirectional Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A solid‐state ionic actuator integrates sensing, actuation, and memory within one material. A brief UV pulse induces long‐lasting deformation via coupled network rearrangement, dehydration, and rehydration, while ionic redistribution enables self‐powered sensing, supporting multifunctional, energy‐efficient soft robotic functions without continuous ...

The Effect of Transformations on the Approximation of Univariate (Convex) Functions with Applications to Pareto Curves [PDF]

open access: yes
In the literature, methods for the construction of piecewise linear upper and lower bounds for the approximation of univariate convex functions have been proposed.We study the effect of the use of increasing convex or increasing concave transformations ...
