Study Notes
Master Program Information
- The program is Engineering Optimization
- The lecture is #1&2
- The university is جامعة المرقب
- The college is كلية الهندسة
- The location is الخمس - ليبيا
Engineering Optimization Lecture
- Topics listed include:
- Engineering, Optimization, Data Analysis (SWOT, GAP)
- Planning, Design, Continuous Improvement, Creation & Innovation
- Feasibility & Probability, Possibility & Likelihood
- Problem/State & Identification
- Constrained & Unconstrained Cost, Tradeoff, Objective Function Cost
- Minimization, Balance, Maximization, Training, Conclusions, Maintenance
- Feasible Region
- Optimization Algorithms (need feasible start point, can relax constraints with slack variable)
- The formal mathematical optimization problem statement is:
- minimize f(x): objective function
- subject to: h(x) = 0, i = 1,…, m₁ (equality constraints)
-
g(x) ≤ 0, j = 1,…, m₂ (inequality constraints) - and x ∈ X ⊂ Rⁿ (design variables)
Introduction to Engineering Design Optimization
- A methodology for finding optimal designs
- Involves stages like: -Defining variables and objectives -Defining constraints -Finding feasible region -Optimization process
Design Versus Modeling
- Design is generating the function or shape idea
- Modeling is bringing the design to life, application of scientific idea to everyday life
- Difference is like the difference between science and engineering
Effectiveness & Efficiency
- Effectiveness: Doing the right things (achieving goals)
- Efficiency: Doing things right (using resources well)
- Tradeoffs exist meaning achieving both at the same time is not always possible
- They are important for businesses and personal goals
Technology in Efficiency and Effectiveness
- Technology can enhance efficiency through automation, reducing time and cost while working more productively.
- Software applications can enhance efficiency and effectiveness by automating manual tasks, thereby freeing up employees to focus on value-added activities.
- Tools like Agile methodology (e.g., Scrum) are crucial for effectiveness in software development (by being more adaptable and responsive to customers).
Importance Questions
- How can technology enhance effectiveness? (answer: automation)
- How can technology enhance efficiency?
- Are effectiveness and efficiency related to optimization?
- Can efficiency and effectiveness relate to human and machine use?
- Can efficiency and effectiveness impact personal leadership and management?
