OPTIMIZATION TECHNIQUES IN ENGINEERING The book describes the basic components of an optimization problem along with the formulation of design problems as mathematical programming problems using an objective function that expresses the main aim of the model, and how it is to be either minimized or maximized; subsequently, the concept of optimization and its relevance towards an optimal solution in engineering applications, is explained. This book aims to present some of the recent developments in the area of optimization theory, methods, and applications in engineering. It focuses on the metaphor of the inspired system and how to configure and apply the various algorithms. The book comprises 30 chapters and is organized into two parts: Part I — Soft Computing and Evolutionary-Based Optimization; and Part II — Decision Science and Simulation-Based Optimization, which contains application-based chapters. Readers and users will find in the book: An overview and brief background of optimization methods which are used very popularly in almost all applications of science, engineering, technology, and mathematics;An in-depth treatment of contributions to optimal learning and optimizing engineering systems;Maps out the relations between optimization and other mathematical topics and disciplines;A problem-solving approach and a large number of illustrative examples, leading to a step-by-step formulation and solving of optimization problems.Audience Researchers, industry professionals, academicians, and doctoral scholars in major domains of engineering, production, thermal, electrical, industrial, materials, design, computer engineering, and natural sciences. The book is also suitable for researchers and postgraduate students in mathematics, applied mathematics, and industrial mathematics.

This state-of-the-art book offers cutting-edge optimization techniques and practical decision-making frameworks essential for enhancing the efficiency and reliability of sustainable energy systems, making it an invaluable resource for researchers, policymakers, and energy professionals. Optimization in Sustainable Energy: Methods and Applications brings together valuable knowledge, methods, and practical examples to help scholars, researchers, professionals, and policymakers address the growing challenges of optimizing sustainable energy. This volume covers a range of topics, including mathematical models, heuristic algorithms, renewable resource management, and energy storage optimization. Each chapter explores a different aspect of sustainable energy, providing both theoretical understanding and practical guidance. The volume explores challenges and opportunities surrounding the integration of multi-criteria decision-making techniques in energy planning, highlighting insights on environmental, economic, and social factors influencing the strategic allocation of resources. The use of evolutionary algorithms, machine learning, and metaheuristics to optimize energy storage, distribution, and optimization are also discussed. The transition towards sustainable energy is at the forefront of global priorities, driven by the urgent need to mitigate climate change, reduce carbon emissions, and enhance energy security. As countries and industries increasingly prioritize renewable sources like wind, solar, and hydroelectric power, the complexity of optimizing these systems becomes a critical challenge. Optimization in Sustainable Energy: Methods and Applications, is a comprehensive exploration of cutting-edge methodologies used to enhance the efficiency, reliability, and performance of sustainable energy systems. Audience Research scholars, academics, students, policymakers, and industry experts in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and energy science.
