Based on course-tested material, this rigorous yet accessible graduate textbook covers both fundamental and advanced optimization theory and algorithms. It covers a wide range of numerical methods and topics, including both gradient-based and gradient-free algorithms, multidisciplinary design optimization, and uncertainty, with instruction on how to determine which algorithm should be used for a given application. It also provides an overview of models and how to prepare them for use with numerical optimization, including derivative computation. Over 400 high-quality visualizations and numerous examples facilitate understanding of the theory, and practical tips address common issues encountered in practical engineering design optimization and how to address them. Numerous end-of-chapter homework problems, progressing in difficulty, help put knowledge into practice. Accompanied online by a solutions manual for instructors and source code for problems, this is ideal for a one- or two-semester graduate course on optimization in aerospace, civil, mechanical, electrical, and chemical engineering departments.
Joaquim R. R. A. Martins is a Professor of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan. He is a fellow of the American Institute for Aeronautics and Astronautics, and the Royal Aeronautical Society. Andrew Ning is an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Brigham Young University, and has previously worked at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) as a Senior Engineer.
