Implementation of a continuation method for nonlinear complementarity problems via normal maps
Ankara : Department of Industrial Engineering and Institute of Engineering and Sciences, Bilkent Univ., 1997.Thesis (Master's) -- Bilkent University, 1997.Includes bibliographical references.In this thesis, a continuation method for nonlinear complementarity
problems via normal maps that is developed by Chen, Harker and Pinar [8]
is implemented. This continuation method uses the smooth function to
approximate the normal map reformulation of nonlinear complementarity
problems. The algorithm is implemented and tested with two different plussmoothing
functions namely interior point plus-smooth function and piecewise
quadratic plus-smoothing function. These two functions are compared. Testing
of the algorithm is made with several known problems.Erkan, AliM.S
MS FT-2-2 7 Orthogonal polynomials and quadrature: Theory, computation, and applications
Quadrature rules find many applications in science and engineering. Their analysis is a classical area of applied mathematics and continues to attract considerable attention. This seminar brings together speakers with expertise in a large variety of quadrature rules. It is the aim of the seminar to provide an overview of recent developments in the analysis of quadrature rules. The computation of error estimates and novel applications also are described
