A Primal-Dual Quasi-Newton Method for Constrained Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
One of the most important developments in nonlinear constrained optimization in recent years has been the recursive quadratic programming (RQP) method suggested by Wilson, Han, Powell and many other researchers. It is clear that the role of the auxiliary

Bending Analysis of Thickness‐ and Shear‐Deformable Materially Imperfect Composite Shells With von Kármán‐Type Geometric Nonlinearities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geometrically nonlinear static analysis of materially imperfect composite doubly curved shells is investigated via the generalised differential quadrature method. The effects of both shear and thickness deformation are considered through a thickness‐ and shear‐deformable third‐order theory formulated in curvilinear coordinates, while the ...

Dynamic Modeling and Simulation of Morphing Wing Aircraft Considering Rigid‐Elastic Coupling Effects

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the morphing process, the dynamic modeling of the morphing wing aircraft presents the characteristics of rigid‐elastic coupling effects, moving boundaries, and low computational efficiency. Meanwhile, parameters such as aerodynamic forces/moments, center of pressure, center of mass, and moment of inertia would also change significantly,

Some diagonal preconditioners for limited memory quasi-Newton method for large Scale optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
One of the well-known methods in solving large scale unconstrained optimization is limited memory quasi-Newton (LMQN) method. This method is derived from a subproblem in low dimension so that the storage requirement as well as the computation cost can be

A pilot variational coupled reanalysis based on the CESAM climate model

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Variational data assimilation of in‐situ and satellite ocean data and reanalysis atmospheric data into an intermediate complexity Earth system model is possible by adjusting the surface fluxes and internal model parameters. This pilot application requires nearly complete information on the atmospheric state for synchronization.

A New Sparse Quasi-Newton Update Method

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science [SQUJS], 2012
Based on the idea of maximum determinant positive definite matrix completion, Yamashita proposed a sparse quasi-Newton update, called MCQN, for unconstrained optimization problems with sparse Hessian structures. Such an MCQN update keeps the sparsity structure of the Hessian while relaxing the secant condition.

Sonified Signals From a Compact FT‐ICR Instrument: A Feasibility Study. I—Data Mapping to an Equal‐Tempered Chromatic Scale

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Ions trapped within a Penning cell (ICR) travel periodic orbits whose frequencies are dependent on their mass‐to‐charge ratio and the value of the magnetic field passing through the trap. Fourier transformation (FT‐ICR) decomposes the signal induced in the detection circuit by the rotation of the ions in the cell after the ...

Quasi-Newton Based Preconditioning and Damped Quasi-Newton Schemes for Nonlinear Conjugate Gradient Methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, we deal with matrix-free preconditioners for nonlinear conjugate gradient (NCG) methods. In particular, we review proposals based on quasi-Newton updates, and either satisfying the secant equation or a secant-like equation at some of the previous iterates.

Positive-definite memoryless symmetric rank one method for large-scale unconstrained optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Memoryless quasi-Newton method is exactly the quasi-Newton method for which the approximation to the inverse of Hessian, at each step, is updated from a positive multiple of identity matrix. Hence, its search direction can be computed without the storage
