ENM 520 - Theory and Computation for ODE/PED-constrained optimization

Institution:

University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisite(s): Basic theory of ordinary and partial differential equations. This course introduces the basic theory and algorithms for nonlinear optimization for continuum systems. Emphasis will be given in numerical algorithms that are applicable to problems in which the constraints are ordinary or partial differential equations. Such problems have numerous applications in science and engineering. Lectures and homeworks will examine examples related to control, design, and inverse problems in vision, robotics, computer graphics, bioengineering, fluid and solid mechanics, molecular dynamics, and geophysics.
