Issues in Evaluation of Complex Fire Models

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Paul A. Reneke, Glenn P. Forney, M. M. Kostreva
Several methods of evaluation of the predictive capability have been applied to fire models, but with limited utility. These range from explicit evaluation of the equations used in simple models such as ASET to pointwise evaluation of complex models from

Learning to Set Up Numerical Optimizations of Engineering Designs

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
Mark Schwabacher, T Ellman, H Hirsh
Gradient-based numerical optimization of complex engineering designs offers the promise of rapidly producing better designs. However, such methods generally assume that the objective function and constraint functions are continuous, smooth, and defined
