Computational Optimization : Chapman & Hall/CRC : 9781032229478 : 1032229470 : 17 Feb 2023 : 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
