Goals

The students
 

  • know the mathematical basics and the fundamental methods and algorithms to solve constrained and unconstrained nonlinear static optimization problems.
  • can solve constraint and unconstraint dynamic optimization by using the calculus of variations approach and the Dynamic Programming method.
  • are able to transfer dynamic optimization problems to static problems.
  • know the mathematic relations, the pros and cons and the limits of each optimization method.
  • can transfer problems from other fields of their studies in a suitable optimization problem formulation and they are able to select and implement appropriate optimization algorithms for them by using common software tools
Exam

exam  WS23/24 on Friday, 23rd Febuary 2024 from 14:00 - 16:00
