This book, and its supplementary online files, presents basic optimization techniques that can be used to compute the sensitivity of a given design to local change, or to improve its performance by local optimization of these data. The relevance and scope of these techniques have improved dramatically in recent years because of progress in discretization strategies, optimization algorithms, automatic differentiation, software availability, and the power of personal computers. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNumerical Methods in Sensitivity Analysis and Shape Optimization\u003c\/b\u003e will be of interest to graduate students involved in mathematical modeling and simulation, as well as engineers and researchers in applied mathematics looking for an up-to-date introduction to optimization techniques, sensitivity analysis, and optimal design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Birkhäuser\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2002-12-13\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780817643225\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4612-0069-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 194\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Birkhäuser Boston","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45382388449420,"sku":"9780817643225","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780817643225.jpg?v=1775739450","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780817643225","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
