Pseudo-Component Viscoelastic Modeling of Soft Tissues
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)
Understanding the response of human tissues to externally imposed stress and strain is critical to improving quality of life. This work explored regression approaches and modeling that aid discovery and describe mechanisms ...
Accelerating convergence of leapfrogging optimization - Applications to nonlinear process modeling and nonlinear model predictive control
(2014-07)
Conventionally used optimization methods in chemical engineering applications such as linear programming (LP), Levenberg-Marquardt and sequential quadratic programming (SQP) handle nonlinear objective function (OF) surfaces ...
Leapfrogging with improved initialization and its applications: Demonstration of leapfrogging on horizon predictive control of a heat exchanger
(2014-07)
Leapfrogging (LF) is a recently developed optimization technique that initially places players in random spots in the feasible decision variable space [1]. The approach to reach the global optimum is by "Leaping" the player ...
