Optimality conditions for nonconvex semidefinite programming

open access: yes, 2000
This paper concerns nonlinear semidefinite programming problems for which no convexity assumptions can be made. We derive first- and second-order optimality conditions analogous to those for nonlinear programming.

Prestress Design of Tensegrity Structures Using Semidefinite Programming

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2019
Finding appropriate prestresses which can stabilize the system is a key step in the design of tensegrity structures. A semidefinite programming- (SDP-) based approach is developed in this paper to determine appropriate prestresses for tensegrity ...

MOEA/D‐based multi‐row facility layout optimisation method with discontinuity perceiving of the Pareto front

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract In a multi‐row facility layout problem (MRFLP), facilities are arranged in more than one row under the limited layout area. Considering different layout factors, various extensions of MRFLP have been modelled. However, the orientation of input/output (I/O) point in a facility, as a key factor that plays a direct impact on flow cost, is seldom ...

On semidefinite programming relaxations of maximum k-section

open access: yes, 2012
We derive a new semidefinite programming bound for the maximum k-section problem. For k=2 (i.e. for maximum bisection), the new bound is at least as strong as a well-known bound by Poljak and Rendl (SIAM J Optim 5(3):467-487, 1995). For k≥3 the new bound

When wine walked into grocery stores: Examining the (un)intended economic consequences of wine Sale reform in Tennessee

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Alcohol policy liberalization is a contentious issue in the United States, including debates over whether grocery stores should be allowed to sell wine. This issue reflects a dilemma between accommodating consumer convenience, promoting wine industry growth, and generating tax revenue, versus concerns about potential harm to liquor stores ...

A Semidefinite Programming Approach for Harmonic Balance Method

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
The harmonic balance method is broadly employed for analyzing and predicting the periodic steady-state solution. Most of the traditional methods in the literature do not guarantee global optimality. Due to its nonconvexity, it is a complex task to find a

Computing frequency response of non‐parametric uncertainty model of MIMO systems using υ‐gap metric optimization

open access: yesIET Control Theory & Applications, 2021
This paper presents the computation of the non‐parametric uncertainty model for multi input multi output (MIMO) systems, which is described by normalized coprime factors (NCF) using the frequency response data of the system.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.
