  1. 1. Ride Comfort Optimization of Buses

    Author : Peter Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; structural vibrations; FEM; global optimization; ride comfort; roll control system; MBS; optimization; bus; road irregularities; sensitivity analysis;

    Abstract : As the design of buses is constantly improving, passengers are becoming more fastidious and the demand for a more comfortable travelling environment is constantly increasing. The main objective of this thesis is to contribute to the understanding of how the design of buses affects the ride comfort characteristics. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fast local optimization in decision analytic software

    Author : Xiasong Ding; Love Ekenberg; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bilinear programming; decision analysis; optimization; linear progamming; decision support systems; iterative method; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : In decision analysis, significant recognition has been given to the fact that requiring numerically precise information seems unrealistic for real-life decision situations, Despite the emergence of many modern apporaches, which attempt to handle imprecise estimates, concentration has focused more on representation and less on evaluation. Methods such as the DELTA method  challenged this issue by its evaluation framework that can accommodate both precision an imprecision, and thus pushes forward the disign of advanced dicision analysis systems.

  3. 3. A bilevel approach to parameter tuning of optimization algorithms using evolutionary computing : Understanding optimization algorithms through optimization

    Author : Martin Andersson; Amos Ng; Sunith Bandaru; Kalyanmoy Deb; Juergen Branke; Högskolan i Skövde; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Production and Automation Engineering; Produktion och automatiseringsteknik;

    Abstract : Most optimization problems found in the real world cannot be solved using analytical methods. For these types of difficult optimization problems, an alternative approach is needed. READ MORE

  4. 4. Decentralized Constrained Optimization: a Novel Convergence Analysis

    Author : Firooz Shahriari Mehr; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Constrained optimization; Decentralized optimal transport; Distributed optimization; Multi-agent systems; Convergence analysis; Convex optimization;

    Abstract : One reason for the spectacular success of machine learning models is the appearance of large datasets. These datasets are often generated by different computational units or agents and cannot be processed on a single machine due to memory and computing limitations. READ MORE

  5. 5. Approximation of topology optimization problems using sizing optimization problems

    Author : Anton Evgrafov; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; structural optimization; bilevel programming; approximation; topology optimization; control in coefficients; optimal design; fictitious domain; control in coefficients;

    Abstract : The present work is devoted to approximation techniques for singular extremal problems arising from optimal design problems in structural and fluid mechanics. The thesis consists of an introductory part and four independent papers, which however are united by the common idea of approximation and the related application areas. READ MORE
