Abstract

One of the major goals of geophysical inversion is to find earth models that explain the geophysical observations. Thus the branch of mathematics known as optimization has found significant use in many geophysical applications. Both local and global optimization methods are used in the estimation of material properties from geophysical data. As the title of the book suggests, the aim of this book is to describe the application of several recently developed global optimization methods to geophysical problems. The well known linear and gradient based optimization methods have been summari

Abstract

This volume presents the fundamentals of nonlinear and mixed-integer optimisation, and their applications in the important area of process synthesis in chemical engineering. Topics that are unique include the theory and methods for mixed-integer nonlinear optimisation, introduction to modelling issues in process synthesis, and optimisation-based approaches in the synthesis of heat recovery systems, distillation-based systems, and reactor-based systems.
