Multipolar robust optimization

open access: yesEURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2018
We consider linear programs involving uncertain parameters and propose a new tractable robust counterpart which contains and generalizes several other models including the existing Affinely Adjustable Robust Counterpart and the Fully Adjustable Robust ...

Optimal Design of Electrically Fed Hybrid Mars Ascent Vehicle

open access: yesAerospace, 2021
The optimal design of the propulsion system for a potential Mars Ascent Vehicle is analyzed, in the context of the Mars Sample Return Mission. The Mars Ascent Vehicle has to perform an initial ascent phase from the surface and then circularize into a 170

Shortfall-Based Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Optimization

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
In this paper, we study a distributionally robust optimization (DRO) problem with affine decision rules. In particular, we construct an ambiguity set based on a new family of Wasserstein metrics, shortfall–Wasserstein metrics, which apply normalized ...

Robust Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy: Optimal Design of Magnetic Devices Considering Material Variation

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
Uncertainties caused by material variation can significantly impair the characteristics of devices. Therefore, it is important to design devices whose performance is not significantly damaged even when material variations occur. Robust optimization seeks

Robust optimization through neuroevolution.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
We propose a method for evolving neural network controllers robust with respect to variations of the environmental conditions (i.e. that can operate effectively in new conditions immediately, without the need to adapt to variations). The method specifies

Robust Topology Optimization for Compliant Mechanisms Considering Uncertainty of Applied Loads

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2008
In this study, a robust topology optimization method is proposed for compliant mechanisms, where the effect that variation of the input load direction has on the output displacement is considered.
