Wt. Zhong et al., Applying analytical derivative and sparse matrix techniques to large-scaleprocess optimization problems, CHIN J CH E, 8(3), 2000, pp. 212-217
The performance of analytical derivative and sparse matrix techniques appli
ed to a traditional dense sequential quadratic programming (SQP) is studied
, and the strategy utilizing those techniques is also presented. Computatio
nal. results on two typical chemical optimization problems demonstrate sign
ificant enhancement in efficiency, which shows this strategy is promising a
nd suitable for large-scale process optimization problems.
