The paper deals with a structural optimization of composite materials with periodic microstructures invoking an elasto-plasticity model with the von Mises yield criterion. Closest...
We compare inexact Newton and coordinate descent methods for optimizing the quality of a mesh by repositioning the vertices, where quality is measured by the harmonic mean of the ...

—We describe and evaluate a suite of distributed and computationally efficient algorithms for solving a class of convex optimization problems in wireless sensor networks. The pr...
We are interested by contributing to stochastic problems of which the main distinction is that some tasks may create other tasks. In particular, we present a first approach which...
In this article, a hybrid optimization method has been proposed consisting of modified ant colony systems (ACSs) and constrained nonlinear programming (NLP) to solve the problems ...
