Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational complexity is a serious bottleneck for the design process in virtually any engineering area. While migration from prototyping and experimental-based design validation to verification using computer simulation models is inevitable and has a number of advantages, high computational costs of accurate, high-fidelity simulations can be a major issue that slows down the development of computer-aided design methodologies, particularly those exploiting automated design improvement procedures, e.g., numerical optimization. The continuous increase of available computational resources does not always translate into shortening of the design cycle because of the growing demand for higher accuracy and necessity to simulate larger and more complex systems. Accurate simulation of a single design of a given system may be as long as several hours, days or even weeks, which often makes design automation using conventional methods impractical or even prohibitive. Additional problems include numerical noise often present in the simulation data, possible presence of multiple locally optimum designs, as well as multiple conflicting objectives. In this edited book, various techniques that can alleviate solving computationally expensive engineering design problems are presented. One of the most promising approaches is the use of fast replacement models, so-called surrogates, that reliably represent the expensive, simulation-based model of the system/device of interest but they are much cheaper and analytically tractable. Here, a group of international experts summarize recent developments in the area and demonstrate applications in various disciplines of engineering and science. The main purpose of the work is to provide the basic concepts and formulations of the surrogate-based modeling and optimization paradigm, as well as discuss relevant modeling techniques, optimization algorithms and design procedures. Therefore, this book should be useful to researchers and engineers from any discipline where computationally heavy simulations are used on daily basis in the design process.

Download or read book Surrogate-Based Modeling and Optimization written by Slawomir Koziel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-06 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary engineering design is heavily based on computer simulations. Accurate, high-fidelity simulations are used not only for design verification but, even more importantly, to adjust parameters of the system to have it meet given performance requirements. Unfortunately, accurate simulations are often computationally very expensive with evaluation times as long as hours or even days per design, making design automation using conventional methods impractical. These and other problems can be alleviated by the development and employment of so-called surrogates that reliably represent the expensive, simulation-based model of the system or device of interest but they are much more reasonable and analytically tractable. This volume features surrogate-based modeling and optimization techniques, and their applications for solving difficult and computationally expensive engineering design problems. It begins by presenting the basic concepts and formulations of the surrogate-based modeling and optimization paradigm and then discusses relevant modeling techniques, optimization algorithms and design procedures, as well as state-of-the-art developments. The chapters are self-contained with basic concepts and formulations along with applications and examples. The book will be useful to researchers in engineering and mathematics, in particular those who employ computationally heavy simulations in their design work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book mainly focuses on the major area: Computational Mechanics. Computational mechanics is widely used in nanomechanics and micromechanics, continuum mechanics, and many other mechanical systems. The main focus throughout this book will be to address methods concerning the field of continuum mechanics. Continuum mechanics studies bodies at the macroscopic level by developing continuum models with a homogenized microstructure. The two traditional areas of application are solid and thermal-fluid mechanics.Over the past century, energy and variational principles have become popular methods when obtaining approximate solutions to practical problems in applied mechanics. In addition, these methods enable engineers to carry out more effective simulations. In fact, most simulation and computation software are based upon concepts from energy and variational approaches.This book combines the essential ideas and methods behind current energy applications and variational theory in theoretical, applied mechanics. The emphasis is on understanding physical and computational applications of variational methodology rather than on rigorous mathematical formalism.Although there are some excellent books for engineering analysis using variational techniques to solve engineering problems, in this manuscript, we intend to guide the reader through the classical topics of energy and variational principles through the fundamental concepts to the extent of a first-year graduate student. What makes this book distinct from all others is that students usually grasp abstract and complex formulations through problem-solving, which is the major strength of this book.This book is intended to provide a theoretical and practical foundation for approximations to differential equations, including the finite element method. The target audience is first-year graduate students who have had little exposure to energy and variational principles. Practicing engineers will also benefit from the approach of this manuscript as they will be able to learn the theoretical aspects of typical approximation methods such as the finite element methods, basically, by their own. Thus, we can assure that this book will fill up a void in the personal library of many engineers who are trying to, or planning, to these methods in their next analysis.

This book was released on 2010-03-10 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In modern science and engineering, laboratory experiments are replaced by high fidelity and computationally expensive simulations. Using such simulations reduces costs and shortens development times but introduces new challenges to design optimization process. Examples of such challenges include limited computational resource for simulation runs, complicated response surface of the simulation inputs-outputs, and etc. Under such difficulties, classical optimization and analysis methods may perform poorly. This motivates the application of computational intelligence methods such as evolutionary algorithms, neural networks and fuzzy logic, which often perform well in such settings. This is the first book to introduce the emerging field of computational intelligence in expensive optimization problems. Topics covered include: dedicated implementations of evolutionary algorithms, neural networks and fuzzy logic. reduction of expensive evaluations (modelling, variable-fidelity, fitness inheritance), frameworks for optimization (model management, complexity control, model selection), parallelization of algorithms (implementation issues on clusters, grids, parallel machines), incorporation of expert systems and human-system interface, single and multiobjective algorithms, data mining and statistical analysis, analysis of real-world cases (such as multidisciplinary design optimization). The edited book provides both theoretical treatments and real-world insights gained by experience, all contributed by leading researchers in the respective fields. As such, it is a comprehensive reference for researchers, practitioners, and advanced-level students interested in both the theory and practice of using computational intelligence for expensive optimization problems.
