This second volume is devoted to discrete optimization (problems with integer variables) and functional optimization (problems where the unknown is a function). The topics covered are: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- mixed linear programming: cutting methods and tree methods;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- combinatorial optimization based on graphs: path, flow, assignment problems ...;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- the computation of variations based on Euler-Lagrange conditions and their extensions;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- optimal control based on the Pontryaguin maximum principle and its extensions;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- numerical methods: differential equations, direct and indirect methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe emphasis is on understanding the principles rather than on mathematical rigor. Each concept or algorithm is accompanied by a detailed example to help you grasp the main ideas. This book is the result of 30 years of experience and is intended for students, researchers and engineers wishing to acquire a general knowledge in the field of optimization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Max Cerf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 2759831639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9782759831630\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e EDP Sciences\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/12\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 478\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.96d","brand":"Max Cerf","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113789042943,"sku":"9782759831630","price":172.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_02384145-4f25-48bb-bbe9-52cd5982ab57.jpg?v=1769617321","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/optimization-techniques-tome-ii-max-cerf-9782759831630","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
