Abstract

The performance of a laboratory-scale salt-gradient solar pond is described in this paper. Di erent

methods of saline injection to the bottom layer and corresponding temperature and concentration

pro®les as a function...

In this paper, we obtain the gradient of objective function using the

concept of directionally derivative. Then the gradient decent method is

presented to solve the nonlinear optimal control problem with free final

state....

This paper presents experimental data of flow developing in adverse pressure gradient condition of

open circuit suction-type wind tunnel by particle image velocimetry (PIV). The objective of the study

is to gain a perception...

Conjugate gradient (CG) algorithms have played special roles in solving large scale nonlinear optimization problems

with smooth objective functions f : Rn ! R. Search directions in the CG algorithms are generated by the sequence
