摘要

In designing complex systems, the quest for optimality often leads to frustration and inefficiency. The use of the optimization construct using the gradient-based solution algorithms result in single-point optimal solution that meet rigorous Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions. However, these algorithms need to be revised when faced with the complexities of engineering design problems: nonlinear, nonconvex objectives, constraints and objectives with different units, and mathematical models that are abstractions of reality.
