Abstract We give some versions of Hahn-Banach, sandwich, duality, Moreau--Rockafellar-type theorems, optimality conditions and a formula for the subdifferential of composite functions for order continuous vector lattice-valued operators, invariant or equivariant with respect to a fixed group G of homomorphisms. As applications to optimization problems with both convex and linear constraints, we present some Farkas and Kuhn-Tucker-type results.

Save Energy

This article presents a new methodology to generate optimal trajectories in controlling an automated excavator. By parameterizing all the actuator displacements with B-splines of the same order and with the same number of control points, the coupled actuator limits, associated with the maximum pump flowrate, are described as the finite-dimensional set of linear constraints to the motion optimization problem. Several weighting functions are introduced on the generalized actuator torque so that the solution to each optimization problems contains the physical meaning. Numerical results showing that the generated motions of the excavator are fairly smooth and effectively save energy, which can prevent mechanical wearing and possibly save fuel consumption, are presented. A typical operator's manoeuvre from experiments is referred to bring out the standing features of the optimized motion.

Abstract Mechanism path generation problems which use link deformations to improve the design lead to optimization problems involving a nonlinear sum-of-squares objective function subjected to a set of linear and nonlinear constraints. Inclusion of the deformation analysis causes the objective function evaluation to be computationally expensive. An optimization method is presented which requires relatively few objective function evaluations. The algorithm, based on the Gauss method for unconstrained problems, is developed as an extension of the Gauss constrained technique for linear constraints and revises the Gauss nonlinearly constrained method for quadratic constraints. The derivation of the algorithm, using a Lagrange multiplier approach, is based on the Kuhn-Tucker conditions so that when the iteration process terminates, these conditions are automatically satisfied. Although the technique was developed for mechanism problems, it is applicable to any optimization problem having the form of a sum of squares objective function subjected to nonlinear constraints.

Order Continuous

1. Objective. It is possible to define order convergence on the vector lattice of all continuous functions of compact support on a locally compact topological space. Every measure is a linear form on this vector lattice. The object of this paper is to prove that a measure is such that every set of the first category of Baire has measure zero if and only if the measure is a linear form which is continuous in the order convergence.

Scalar And Vector Optimization

We take into condideration necessary optimality conditions of minimum principle-type, that is for optimization problems having, besides the usual inequality and/or equality constraints, a set constraint. The first part pf the paper is concerned with scalar optimization problems; the second part of the paper deals with vector optimization problems.
