PDE-constrained optimization within FreeFEM
Description
Alles über E-Books | Antworten auf Fragen rund um E-Books, Kopierschutz und Dateiformate finden Sie in unserem Info- & Hilfebereich.
PDE constrained optimization problems are frequently encountered in many academic or industrial contexts. This book shows how to attack and solve a given PDE constrained optimization problem thanks to the efficient and expert tool FreeFEM.
This book is intended for students and researchers aiming at learning how to efficiently solve, with the software FreeFEM, optimization problems under partial differential equations (PDE) constraints. The readers are expected to have a basic knowledge in the analysis and numerical solving of partial differential equations with finite element methods, in optimization, in algorithmics and numerical implementation.
All the codes are available at FreeFEM's github and can hopefully serve as templates for the users.

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
