Mathematical Programs with Equilibrium Constraints: Theory and Numerical Methods

  • Chapter
Nonsmooth Mechanics of Solids

Part of the book series: CISM International Centre for Mechanical Sciences ((CISM,volume 485))

Abstract

The lecture notes deal with optimization problems, where a generalized equation (modeling an equilibrium) arises among the constraints. The main attention is paid to necessary optimality conditions and methods to the numerical solution of such problems. The applications come from continuum mechanics.
