Abstract:
In many real world optimization problems it is essential or desirable to determine the global minimum of the objective function. The subject of this dissertation is a new class of methods that tackle such problems. In particular, we have in mind problems where function evaluations are expensive and no additional information is available. The methods employ radial basis functions that have been proved to be useful for interpolation problems. Examples include thin plate splines and multiquadrics. Specifically, in each iteration, radial basis function interpolation is used to define a utility fun

Abstract:
This work presents heuristics for searching large sets of molecular structures for low-energy, stable systems. The goal is to find the globally optimal structures in less time or by consuming less computational resources. The strategies intermittently evaluate and rank structures during molecular dynamics optimizations, culling possible weaker solutions from evaluations earlier, leaving better solutions to receive more simulation time. Although some imprecision was introduced from not allowing all structures to fully optimize before ranking, the strategies identify metrics that can be used to

Abstract:
Les défaillances des systèmes mécatroniques sont souvent causées par la rupture par fatigue des joints de brasure de ses composants électroniques. Avec la miniaturisation croissante des boîtiers électroniques, la sollicitation des joints de brasure, qui assurent la liaison entre les sorties du composant et la carte, peut devenir problématique. En effet, les joints de brasures peuvent accepter des taux de déformation importants, mais une accumulation des sollicitations répétées provoquent leur vieillissement prématuré pouvant conduire à la rupture de joints brasés (phénomène de fatigue thermomé

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior<br>Sistemas estruturais em suas variadas aplicações incluindo-se veículos espaciais, automóveis e estruturas de engenharia civil tais como prédios, pontes e plataformas off-shore, acumulam dano durante suas vidas úteis. Em muitas situações, tal dano pode não ser visualmente observado. Do ponto de vista da segurança e da performance da estrutura, é desejável monitorar esta possível ocorrência, localizá-la e quantificá-la. Métodos de identificação de sistemas, que em geral, são classificados numa categoria de Técnicas de Avaliação Não-D

Abstract:
Neste trabalho é apresentada uma ferramenta de otimização para análise de problemas de alocação de água em bacias hidrográficas utilizando técnicas de programação linear e linear por partes, integradas a um modelo de amortecimentos de ondas em canais. A otimização é feita de forma global, com uso de softwares de programação linear baseados nos métodos de pontos interiores. A metodologia de uso do sistema consiste em se obter uma solução ?ótima? para situações de disponibilidade de água insuficiente a todos os usos conflitantes na bacia. A ferramenta está sendo acoplada e incorporada ao AcquaNe

Abstract:
This thesis concerns the use of local searches within global optimization algorithms. In particular, we focus our attention on the strategies to decide whether to start or not a local search from a starting point. More specifically, our aim is to avoid the waste of computational effort due to local searches which lead to already detected local minima or to local minimizers with a poor function value. Our clustering-based strategies can be easily used to solve large scale global optimization problems and to enhance the performance of any memetic algorithm in general.

Abstract:
We propose interval arithmetic and interval constraint algorithms for global optimization. Both of these compute lower and upper bounds of a function over a box, and return a lower and an upper bound for the global minimum. In interval arithmetic methods, the bounds are computed using interval arithmetic evaluations. Interval constraint methods instead use domain reduction operators and consistency algorithms. The usual interval arithmetic algorithms for global optimization suffer from at least one of the following drawbacks: - Mixing the fathoming problem, in which we ask for the global
