Several optimization schemes have been known for convex optimization problems. However,
numerical algorithms for solving nonconvex optimization problems are still underdeveloped. A progress to
go beyond convexity was made by considering the class of functions representable as differences of convex

We propose a splitting algorithm for solving a system of composite monotone inclusions
formulated in the form of the extended set of solutions in real Hilbert spaces. The resluting
algorithm is an extension of the algorithm in 4. The weak convergence of the algorithm
proposed is proved. Applications[r]

Summarysaturated with CO2 proved to be a good medium for esterification of fatty acids and polarcompounds.Finally, glycerol as another type of polar compound was selected to demonstrate theadvantages of esterification in such a CO2-acetone sytem. Response surface method was selectedas[r]

A feedback control system usually implements active and semiactive control of seismically excited structures.
The objective of the control system is described by a performance index, including weighting matrix norms. The
choice of weighting matrices is usually based on engineering experience. A new[r]

In this paper, a robust PI controller in combination with a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) is proposed to control a two-wheeled inverted pendulum robot (TWIPR) such that it is kept balanced while moving. The proposed TWIPR control system consists of two control loops. The inner loop has two PI con[r]

In this paper we propose an iteration hybrid method for approximating a
point in the intersection of the solutionsets of pseudomonotone equilibrium and variational
inequality problems and the fixed points of a semigroupnonexpensive mappings in Hilbert

The purpose of this paper is to find out an efficient decision support method for
nontraditional machine selection. It seeks to analyze potential nontraditional
machine selection attributes with a relatively new MCDM approach of MOORA and
MOOSRA method. The use of MOORA and MOOSRA method has been ad[r]

In this paper, we study secondorder necessary optimality conditions for a discrete
optimal control problem with nonconvex cost functions and statecontrol constraints.
By establishing an abstract result on secondorder necessary optimality conditions for
a mathematical programming problem, we derive s[r]

INTRODUCTION:
For some time the brewing, food and ingredient industries have
identified the need to develop an accurate, convenient and reliable
method for assaying mixedlinkage βglucan in barley, malt, wort
and beer. The Megazyme method meets all of these requirements.
It is simple to use and[r]
