OPTIMA addresses industry’s urgent need for decision-making tools for global competitiveness: reducing lead times, and financial and environmental costs, while improving efficiency, quality, and agility. Despite strong expertise in academia, industry is yet to fully benefit from optimisation technology due to its high barrier to entry. Connecting industry partners with world-leading interdisciplinary researchers and talented students, OPTIMA will advance an industry-ready optimisation toolkit, while training a new generation of industry practitioners and over 120 young researchers, vanguarding a highly skilled workforce of change agents for transformation of the advanced manufacturing, energy resources, and critical infrastructure sectors.Read moreRead less
Stability of Generalised Equations and Variational Systems. This project seeks to advance a new mathematical theory of variational analysis which may lead to applications in optimisation. The emphasis will be on extensions of regularity concepts appropriate for studying stability (the ‘radius of good behaviour’) of solutions to optimisation problems, particularly those of semi-infinite optimisation and programs with equilibrium constraints, when standard assumptions are not satisfied. The expect ....Stability of Generalised Equations and Variational Systems. This project seeks to advance a new mathematical theory of variational analysis which may lead to applications in optimisation. The emphasis will be on extensions of regularity concepts appropriate for studying stability (the ‘radius of good behaviour’) of solutions to optimisation problems, particularly those of semi-infinite optimisation and programs with equilibrium constraints, when standard assumptions are not satisfied. The expected outcomes may have an impact in enhancing the convergence of numerical methods and facilitating the post-optimal analysis of solutions. It may also generate new tools for increasing efficiencies and cost reductions in engineering, logistics, economics, financial systems, and environmental science.Read moreRead less
