The primary goal of this work is to address the non-linear programming problem of globally minimizing the real valued function x -> d(x, Tx) where T is presumed to be a non-self mapping that is a generalized proximal contraction in the setting of a metric space. Indeed, an iterative algorithm is presented to determine a solution of the preceding non-linear programming problem that focuses on global optimization. As a sequel, one can compute optimal approximate solutions to some fixed point equations and optimal solutions to some unconstrained non-linear programming problems.

In this paper, we present a new approach to solve multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problems considering subjective preferences and non-preferences of the decision maker in the form of triangular fuzzy preference relations and triangular fuzzy non-preference relations, respectively. Some important characteristics of these relations are used to form non-linear programming problems corresponding to lower, middle, and upper limits of the triangular fuzzy numbers. The optimization problems corresponding to lower and upper limits are solved to obtain corresponding limits of basic triangular fuzzy multiplicative preference weights (TFMPWs) and basic triangular fuzzy multiplicative non-preference weights (TFMNPWs). The obtained optimal weight values are used to find the modal values of TFMPWs and TFMNPWs that helps in the ranking of the alternatives. The working of the proposed approach is demonstrated by solving a MADM problem from the literature. Furthermore, to validate the superiority of the proposed approach, a comparative analysis with similar existing approaches has been provided. The obtained results reveal the applicability and usefulness of the proposed approach.

Nagar et al. (Int J Syst Assur Eng Manag (2021). https://***/10.1007/s13198-021-01339-w) proposed a method to solve Pythagorean fuzzy transportation problems (transportation problems in which the unit transportation cost for supplying the product from a source to a destination is represented by a Pythagorean fuzzy number. Whereas, all other parameters are represented by a non-negative real number). Nagar et al. also claimed that their proposed method is more efficient as compared to the existing methods (Complex Intell Syst (2019) 5: 255-263, Adalya J (2020) 9(1): 1301-1308). In this paper, it is pointed out that in all these existing methods, some mathematical incorrect assumptions are considered. Therefore, it is inappropriate to use these existing methods to solve Pythagorean fuzzy transportation problems. To resolve the inappropriateness of these existing methods, a new method (named as Mehar method) is proposed to solve Pythagorean fuzzy transportation problems.

A direct multiple shooting method is considered to solve optimal control problems. The direct multiple shooting method is a numerical method for the solution of boundary value problems. The method divides the interval over which a solution is sought into several smaller intervals, solves an initial value problem in each of the smaller intervals, and imposes additional matching conditions to form a solution on the whole interval. This method transforms an optimal control problem into a non-linear programming problem. To solve this last problem, the zeros of the Jacobian of Lagrangian are computed by using the Newton's method. Then, this method is illustrated by a numerical example and finally, applied to control a quadrotor to minimize energy.

Decision making problems force the decision maker to consider fuzzy decision variables in a fuzzy linearprogrammingproblem. Therefore, the proposed fuzzy linearprogrammingproblem considers a triangular fuzzy decision variable with triangular fuzzy parameters. A defuzzyfication method based on incenter of a triangle, which is formed by joining the vertices of the triangular fuzzy parameters and fuzzy decision variables. The coordinate of the incenter is obtained by using the concept of geometry. In next step, the incenter is considered as a vector quantity. Using the concept of obtaining the magnitude of a vector, the final mathematical model is formulated. The final mathematical programmingproblem is a crisp non-linear programming problem. The resultant crisp mathematical programmingproblem is solved by appropriate mathematical software. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the methodology.

A new gradient-based neural network approach is proposed for solving nonlinearprogrammingproblems (NLPPs) and bi-objective optimization problems (BOOPs). The most prominent feature of the proposed approach is that it can converge rapidly to the equilibrium point (optimal solution), for an arbitrary initial point. The proposed approach is affirmed to be stable in the sense of Lyapunov and it is capable for obtaining the optimal solution in solving both NLPPs and BOOPs tasks. Further, BOOP is converted into an equivalent optimization problem by the mean of the weighted sum method, where the Pareto optimal solutions are obtained by using different weights. Also the decomposition of parametric space for BOOP is analyzed in details based on the stability set of the first kind. The experiments results also affirmed that the proposed approach is a promising approach and has an effective performance.

In many situations, systems are required to perform maintenance actions at the planned down time. Because of the limitation of down time, it is often impossible to perform maintenance action for all components in system. Therefore, the maintenance manager should make a decision to choose part of the components to be maintained in the limited down time. This problem is called selective maintenance. In this paper, we provide a selective maintenance model for modular system. We formulate the selective maintenance model as a non-linear programming problem. The maximum reliability gained by maintaining the modular system is formulated as objective. And we show the effectiveness of the proposed model via a numerical example.

This paper addresses the non-linear programming problem of globally minimizing the real valued function x -> d(x,Sx) where S is a generalized proximal contraction in the setting of a metric space. Eventually, one can obtain optimal approximate solutions to some fixed-point equations in the event that they have no solution.

In this paper, an on-board trajectory planning algorithm is proposed for atmospheric ascent. To deal with the impact of disturbance, the on-board trajectory planning algorithm updates the reference trajectory by solving an optimal control problem on-board. Considering the strong non-linear aerodynamic, the optimal control problem is transformed into non-linear programming problem by trajectory discretisation. The direct optimisation method is implemented for this non-linear programming problem. Due to the small amount of discrete nodes and the initial guess solution which is close to the optimisation solution, the direct optimisation method is fast enough to generate a new reference trajectory in every guidance cycle. With different cases of the aerodynamic coefficient bias, numerical simulation for the generic hypersonic vehicle model and scramjet engine is done. The results show the accuracy and the effectiveness of the on-board trajectory planning algorithm.
