This textbook offers a guided tutorial that reviews the theoretical fundamentals while going through the practical examples used for constructing the computational frame, applied to various real-life models.
Computational Optimization: Success in Practice will lead the readers through the entire process. They will start with the simple calculus examples of fitting data and basics of optimal control methods and end up constructing a multi-component framework for running PDE-constrained optimization. This framework will be assembled piece by piece; the readers may apply this process at the levels of complexity matching their current projects or research needs.
By connecting examples with the theory and discussing the proper "communication" between them, the readers will learn the process of creating a "big house." Moreover, they can use the framework exemplified in the book as the template for their research or course problems - they will know how to change the single "bricks" or add extra "floors" on top of that.
This book is for students, faculty, and researchers.
Features
The main optimization framework builds through the course exercises and centers on MATLAB® All other scripts to implement computations for solving optimization problems with various models use only open-source software, e.g., FreeFEM All computational steps are platform-independent; readers may freely use Windows, macOS, or Linux systems All scripts illustrating every step in building the optimization framework will be available to the readers online Each chapter contains problems based on the examples provided in the text and associated scripts. The readers will not need to create the scripts from scratch, but rather modify the codes provided as a supplement to the bookThis book will prove valuable to graduate students of math, computer science, engineering, and all who explore optimization techniques at different levels for educational or research purposes. It will benefit many professionals in academic and industry-related research: professors, researchers, postdoctoral fellows, and the personnel of R&D departments.
About the Author: Dr. Vladislav Bukshtynov holds a Ph.D. degree in Computational Engineering & Science from McMaster University. He is an Assistant Professor at the Dept. of Mathematical Sciences of Florida Institute of Technology. He completed a 3-year postdoctoral term at the Dept. of Energy Resources Engineering of Stanford University. He actively teaches and advises students from various fields: applied and computational math, operations research, different engineering majors. His teaching experience includes Multivariable Calculus, Honors ODE/PDE courses for undergrad students; Applied Discrete Math, Linear/Nonlinear Optimization for senior undergrads and graduates. As a researcher, Dr. Bukshtynov leads his research group with several dynamic scientific directions and ongoing collaborations for various cross-institutional and interdisciplinary projects. His current interests lie in but are not limited to the areas of applied and computational mathematics focusing on combining theoretical and numerical methods for various problems in computational/numerical optimization, control theory, and inverse problems.

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):
UK Delivery
Orders for delivery in the UK are normally despatched by Royal Mail, using the RM 48 Tracked Service with most orders delivered to you within a few days of placing your order with us. For larger parcels, Courier and Signed For delivery services may be used. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.
The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.
First Item @ £3.75 (sometimes a shipping supplement may be added for particularly heavy books or specific postcodes*)
2 Items & over @ £5.00 in total
Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Large multiple book orders and books over 2kg are often shipped via APC Overnight or similar, regardless of Postcode.
Overseas Delivery
Shipments to EU countries:
First Item @ £15.00 (sometimes a shipping supplement will be added for particularly heavy books)
2 Items & over @ £30.00 in total
A really, really important Brexit bit: From 1st January 2021 shipments to EU addresses may incur additional costs which could be requested by Fed Ex at the time of delivery. These costs may vary from country to country and are not within our control and will be in addition to the costs paid to us for your delivery.
