Our technology is designed for multidimensional (up to 100 and more
variables) optimization of practical problems with continuous, breaking
nondifferentiative and stochastic goal functions.
At the moment the raise of complex technical systems effectiveness (such
as gas-turbine engines, flying vehicles etc.) is reached by introduction of the
new manufacturing technologies, by application of the new conceptual solutions
etc. However, for majority of engineering systems it is possible to achieve an
essential raise of their effectiveness at the expense of multiparameter (50 and
more variables) and multicriteria optimization.
For
this purpose the unique technology for optimization investigations has been
developed. The technology is oriented to researches, analysis, search of ways
to increase the efficiency and development forecasting of complex technical
systems by means of:
during their designing, operational development and modernization. The
technology is based on a new method of indirect optimization on the basis of
self-organizing - IOSO, which has been developed by Proff. I.N.Egorov (Moscow,
Russia).
The
distinctive features of the technology are:
- multicriteria
optimization for the problems in stochastic statement (up to 100
variables), with a complex topology of the goal functions and with a
plenty of the constraints (the analogues of the decision of similar problems
are unknown);A distinctive feature of the given technology is its high effectiveness
in search for an optimum solution when investigating into technical systems,
modeled at high levels of complexity and hierarchy including the last
achievements in mathematical modeling (2-D and 3-D problems). Now, the
technology is being successfully implemented for the following problems
