Solving the Flood Propagation Problem with Newton Algorithm on Parallel Systems

Chefi Triki · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2012 · 10.24200/squjs.vol17iss1pp147-156

… d propagation method Flo2DH. The model is built on a finite element spatial approximation combined with a Newton algorithm that uses a direct LU linear solver. The parallel implementation has been developed by using the standard MPI protocol and has been tested on a set of real world problems.

Improved Diagonal Hessian Approximations for Large-Scale Unconstrained Optimization

Ahmed Al-Siyabi · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2022 · 10.53539/squjs.vol26iss2pp126-140

We consider some diagonal quasi-Newton methods for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. A simple and effective approach for diagonal quasi-Newton algorithms is presented by proposing new updates of diagonal entries of the Hessian. Moreover, we suggest employing an extra BFGS update of the diagonal u …

Numerical Experience with Damped Quasi-Newton Optimization Methods when the Objective Function is Quadratic

Mehiddin Al‐Baali, Anton Purnama · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2012 · 10.24200/squjs.vol17iss1pp1-11

A class of damped quasi-Newton methods for nonlinear optimization has recently been proposed by extending the damped-technique of Powell for the BFGS method to the Broyden family of quasi-Newton methods. It has been shown that this damped class has the global and superlinear convergence property that a restricted class …

A Superlinearly Convergent Penalty Method with Nonsmooth Line Search for Constrained Nonlinear Least Squares

Nezam Mahdavi‐Amiri, Mohammad Reza Ansari · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2012 · 10.24200/squjs.vol17iss1pp103-124

Recently, we have presented a projected structured algorithm for solving constrained nonlinear least squares problems, and established its local two-step Q-superlinear convergence. The approach is based on an adaptive structured scheme due to Mahdavi-Amiri and Bartels of the exact penalty method. The structured adaptat …
