Annotation -
The aim is to give a survey of classic and current optimization methods and to apply them to solving practical and real-world engineering problems. Students will learn to formulate optimization problems, state the requirements and constraints put on solution, transform optimization problem to a correct mathematical form, use adequate numerical algorithms in suitable computational environment (Matlab: Symbolic Math Toolbox, Optimization Toolbox, Microsoft Excel: Solver, etc.) and verify and critically evaluate obtained results.
