This book presents the latest algorithmic developments in the
cell-mapping method for the global analysis of nonlinear dynamic
systems, global solutions for multi-objective optimization problems, and
global solutions for zeros of complex algebraic equations. It also
discusses related engineering and scientific applications, including the
nonlinear design of structures for better vibration resistance and
reliability; multi-objective, structural-acoustic design for sound
abatement; optimal multi-objective design of airfoils for better lift;
and optimal multi-objective design of linear and nonlinear controls with
or without time delay.
The first book on the subject to include extensive Matlab and C++ codes,
it presents various implementation algorithms of the cell-mapping
method, enabling readers to understand how the method works and its
programming aspects. A link to the codes on the Springer website will be
provided to the readers.
