Simultaneous Optimization of Design Layout and Material Properties in Reinforced Concrete Structures
ABSTRACT The sustainable transformation of the building sector requires the design of mechanically efficient civil engineering structures, the consideration of material properties in the design layout plays an important role in this context. Steel‐reinforced concrete is an anisotropic bi‐material composite, which represents one of the most popular ...

Global Graph Surrogates and Neural Graph Elements for Computational Mechanics
ABSTRACT Machine learning surrogates are increasingly used to accelerate physics‐based simulations by predicting full‐field responses at a fraction of the computational cost. In this contribution, we present two complementary graph‐based approaches for surrogate modelling in computational mechanics.

Fully non-linear elliptic equations on compact hyperkähler manifolds [PDF]
We consider a general class of elliptic equations on hypercomplex manifolds which includes the quaternionic Monge-Ampère equation, the quaternionic Hessian equation and the Monge-Ampère equation for quaternionic $(n-1)$-plurisubharmonic functions.

LPV Updates for Sequentially Linearized Moving Horizon Estimation of Nonlinear Systems
ABSTRACT Moving horizon estimation (MHE) provides high‐precision state estimation for nonlinear systems, but it is often limited by the substantial computational demands of solving a nonlinear optimization problem at every sampling step. To address this issue, we develop an efficient MHE scheme based on linear parameter‐varying (LPV) formulation, where

The Eigenvalue Problem for the Complex Hessian Operator on $m$-Pseudoconvex Manifolds
We establish $C^{1,1}$-regularity and uniqueness of the first eigenfunction of the complex Hessian operator on strongly $m$-pseudoconvex manifolds, along with a variational formula for the first eigenvalue.

ABSTRACT We consider optimal control of the heat equation where the control variable appears linearly as a boundary control. We establish switching times optimization for bang–bang controls with multiple switching times. Particularly, representations of variational derivatives of the state and the cost w.r.t. switching times are given.

A Machine Learning Framework for Flood Risk Assessment With Imbalanced Data
ABSTRACT This study presents a machine‐learning framework for identifying areas of elevated flood risk using imbalanced, high‐dimensional geospatial datasets. Using the Mandra River Basin in Greece as a case study, an extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) classifier was trained on 11 flood‐related features including hydrological, meteorological, soil and

ABSTRACT This paper focuses on optimal design problems in the context of the Kirchhoff‐Love model for pure bending of a thin, solid, symmetric plate under a transverse load. The objective is to simultaneously determine the optimal outer shape of the domain and the distribution of two isotropic materials within the domain in order to minimize compliance.

ABSTRACT Purpose To jointly reconstruct high‐resolution diffusion‐weighted volumes and eliminate slab‐boundary artifacts while preserving fine anatomical detail from undersampled 3D multi‐slab k‐space acquisitions. Methods A bilinear forward model was formulated to describe the 3D multi‐slab acquisition, treating the image volume and slab excitation ...

Computational governor is shown which simultaneously adjusts the reference and adjusts the constraints. ABSTRACT The paper considers a computational governor strategy to facilitate the implementation of Model Predictive Control (MPC) based on inexact optimization when the time available to compute the solution may be insufficient.
