...CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Background Of the Study In mathematics, optimization problem is a problem where it consists of maximizing or minimizing a real function by systematically choose an input values within an allowed set and compute the value of the function. An additional, it also means solve the problem so that we can the goal as quickly as possible without wasting a lot of resources. Optimization also can be deviating from a target by the smallest possible margin. Generally, a large area of applied mathematics is comprised by the optimization theory and techniques to other formulations. In the simple case, optimization is like finding a good value or a best available value of some problems given a defined domain, including a many of different types of objectives functions and different types of domains. In vector calculus, the gradient of a scalar field is a vector field that points in the direction of the scalar field, and whose the magnitude is that rate of increase. The variation in space of any quantity can be represented by a slope in simple terms. The gradient is like represents the steepness and the direction of the slope. The gradient or gradient of a scalar function f〖:R〗^n→R^1 is denoted by ∇f or ∇ ⃗f where ∇ denotes the vector of the differential operator. Hessian matrix was developed in the 19th century by the German mathematician Ludwig Otto Hesse and this matrix is later named after him. Hessian matrix is the matrix of second derivatives...

...Zhang† Abstract. We propose, analyze, and test an alternating minimization algorithm for recovering images from blurry and noisy observations with total variation (TV) regularization. This algorithm arises from a new half-quadratic model applicable to not only the anisotropic but also the isotropic forms of TV discretizations. The per-iteration computational complexity of the algorithm is three fast Fourier transforms. We establish strong convergence properties for the algorithm including finite convergence for some variables and relatively fast exponential (or q-linear in optimization terminology) convergence for the others. Furthermore, we propose a continuation scheme to accelerate the practical convergence of the algorithm. Extensive numerical results show that our algorithm performs favorably in comparison to several state-of-the-art algorithms. In particular, it runs orders of magnitude faster than the lagged diffusivity algorithm for TV-based deblurring. Some extensions of our algorithm are also discussed.

In this paper, we propose a fast algorithm for reconstructing images from blurry and noisy observations. For simplicity, we assume that the underlying images have square domains, but all discussions can be equally applied to rectangle domains. Let 2 2 2 u0 ∈ Rn be an original...

...industries are dependent. The precision in class of the machine tools themselves, their control frameworks and the association encompassing them to a great extent focus the profitability and intensity of designing commercial enterpries.(Marcuse, 2002) The machine tool industry faces two noteworthy difficulties today. One is that about innovation in machine tools has changed its own technology improvements. Over a century of transformative advancement, predominantly including phenomenal technology upgradations and enhanced control of large scale manufacturing, the primary advancement in machine tool industry over two decades has included computerization and automation of small and medium scale enterprises regarding the current scenario of numerical control and different parts of the microelectronic setup. This adjustment in the overall structure of the machines and innovative change is constraining significant changes both inside(internal) of the business and in its association with clients(external). The other issue is that the focused circumstance on the planet where business is evolving quickly, bringing about serious modification issues for most machine tool makers. Despite the fact that this is an industry in which remote exchange has dependably been critical, the rise of new competitors (especially Japan in numerically controlled machine instruments and recently industrialized nations in ordinary machine tools) with new systems and new sorts of specialization has rolled out...

...contributes to the development of FD methods. One powerful tool – FE analysis − is applied to optimization of plasmon-enhanced AFM tips in apertureless near-field optical microscopy. Another tool is a new FD calculus of “Flexible Local Approximation MEthods” (FLAME). In this calculus, any desirable local approximations (e.g. scalar and vector spherical harmonics, Bessel functions, plane waves, etc.) are seamlessly incorporated into FD schemes. The notorious ‘staircase’ effect for slanted and curved boundaries on a Cartesian grid is in many cases eliminated – not because the boundary is approximated geometrically on a fine grid but because the solution is approximated algebraically by suitable basis functions. Illustrative examples include problems with plasmon nanoparticles and a photonic crystal with a waveguide bend; FLAME achieves orders of magnitude higher accuracy than the standard FD methods, and even than FEM. Keywords: wave propagation, computational methods, flexible approximation, photonic crystals, plasmon particles, apertureless near-field microscopy, AFM tips, field enhancement, optimization....

...of Ford Motor Company's plants will yield a $2.5 billion savings. By the year 2010, Ford will have converted 80 percent of its plants to flexible manufacturing.” (www.ford-motorcompany.com) Looking at local FMS systems, we have Nissan in Sunderland and Greggs in Longbenton. Both these companies have fantastic FMS systems, with virtually no human input, loading- manufacture-unloading is all completed by FMS, this removes the need for human input, which greatly improves quality and output. There are more benefits to FMS, using humans for repetitive work can be dangerous for the body, fatigue is a large part in human operation and if done for long periods of time (i.e. a 10-20 years of work) the human body begins to shut down, creating problems such as arthritis and repetitive strain injury. Industrial Robots and Engineering systems Task 2 One Japanese manufacturer, by installing a flexible manufacturing system, has reduced the number of machines in one facility from 68 to 18, the number of employees from 215 to 12, space requirements from 103000 square feet to 30000 and processing time from 35 days to a 1.5 days. “Ford has poured $4,400,000 into overhauling its Torrence Avenue plant in Chicago, giving it flexible manufacturing capability. This will allow...

...to process a high variety of products in low volumes and with short delivery times. In lieu of these, manufacturing process should have the efficiency of a line flow and flexibility of a job shop. One way to cope with these kind of needs are through the automated manufacturing environments. These consist of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines. CNC Machines have the capability of processing several manufacturing operations and provide the required flexibility in an efficient manner. It is usually use in the metal – working industry. It is equipped with a limited – capacity tool magazine and can automatically change tools between operations in slight time. However, during the changing of tool in the magazine, it must be loaded carefully to best utilize the machine’s flexibility. Set – up time of loading tool magazine is considered long and accounting for a lot of percentage in production time. Because of this, there is a need to reduce the number of tool – magazine setups in order also to reduce the machine processing times. This need is an important and vital problem in automated manufacturing. The paper addresses the said problem. It described the problem as follows. Consider a set of parts that have immediate production requirements on one group of identical machines. Processing each part requires a set of cutting tools and different parts may have a subset...
