Free Download Optimizing Solutions for Real-Life Problems
English | 2025 | ISBN: 9819632153 | 471 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 63 MB
This book explores various optimization techniques that can be used to address problems in the real world. These problems can be found in healthcare, engineering, manufacturing, and many other fields. In many real-world situations, from business to science, optimization techniques are similar to problem-solving tools. They help us make the best choices by considering limitations (constraints) and what we are trying to achieve (objectives). These techniques sift through all the possibilities and find the most effective option. Optimization is similar to a toolbox filled with different problem-solving methods, such as linear programming or genetic algorithms. These tools help us make better decisions about allocating resources across many different fields. They do this by finding the most efficient and effective solutions, considering all the limitations and goals involved.

Free Download Optimization via Relaxation and Decomposition: Applications to Large-Scale Engineering Problems
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031874048 | 445 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 16 MB
This book offers an up-to-date description of relaxation/approximation and decomposition techniques, demonstrating how their combined use efficiently solves large-scale optimization problems relevant to engineering, particularly in electrical, and industrial engineering, with a focus on energy. Specifically, it presents linear and nonlinear relaxations and approximations that are relevant to optimization problems, introduces complicating constraints and complicating variables decomposition techniques that can take advantage of relaxations and approximations, and examines their applications in the engineering field.

Free Download Optimization: An Introduction
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031863259 | 354 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 21 MB
This book covers analytic methods to solve one-dimensional and multi-dimensional problems with or without possible constraints, iterative numerical techniques based on the gradient calculation or its estimation, and numerical methods that do not require the knowledge of gradient and use only comparative iterative tests. This book provides the reader with a basic introduction to some traditional parameter optimization techniques. The presented problems and their solution methods represent a core of the parameter optimization reign since the 17th century to the 1970s. Linear and integer programming via the simplex table is also introduced. Two simple selected problems that are solved using dynamic programming principles are also given to the reader. A general approach to constraints via penalty and barrier functions is introduced. A concise introduction to the decision and game theory concludes the book.

Free Download Optimization Algorithms in Machine Learning: A Meta-heuristics Perspective
English | 2025 | ISBN: 9819638488 | 198 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 29 MB
This book explores the development of several new learning algorithms that utilize recent optimization techniques and meta-heuristics. It addresses well-known models such as particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, ant colony optimization, evolutionary strategy, population-based incremental learning, and grey wolf optimizer for training neural networks. Additionally, the book examines the challenges associated with these processes in detail. This volume will serve as a valuable reference for individuals in both academia and industry.

Free Download Operative Techniques in Orthopedic Trauma: A Practical Guide to Fracture Care
English | 2025 | ISBN: 303180824X | 743 Pages | PDF (True) | 188 MB
This current textbook provides residents, fellows, and surgeons with an interest in fracture care with the key aspects of, and considerations for, common orthopedic trauma cases. Divided into thematic sections and arranged anatomically, each procedure is described in detail, focusing on patient positioning and the exact steps required to complete each procedure, including traumatic fracture management, external fixation techniques and periprosthetic fractures. To supplement the written step-by-step descriptions, plentiful radiography and intraoperative photos are included to further explain and demonstrate critical or complex steps. Additionally, practical tips by the Harvard orthopedic faculty, and tricks that they have learned over their lifetimes in this field and by treating large numbers of patients, are highlighted.

Free Download Open Your Heart : Religion and Cultural Poetics of Greater Mexico By David P. Sandell
2015 | 153 Pages | ISBN: 0268041466 | EPUB | 1 MB
In this ethnography of Catholic religious practice in Fresno, California, David P. Sandell unveils ritualized storytelling that Mexican and Mexican American people of faith use to cope with racism and poverty associated with colonial, capitalist, and modern social conditions. Based on in-depth interviews and extensive field research conducted in 2000 and 2001, Sandell's work shows how people use story and religious ritual (including the Matachines dance, the Mass, the rosary, pilgrimage, and processions) to create a space in their lives free from oppression. These people give meaning to the expression "open your heart," the book argues, through ritual and stories, enabling them to engage the mind and body in a movement toward, as one participant said, "the sacred center" of their lives. Sandell argues that the storytelling represents a tradition of poetics that provides an alternative, emancipatory epistemology. Américo Paredes, for example, defined this tradition in his scholarship of border balladry. According to Paredes, storytelling with ritual elements raises a feature of performance characterized as a convivial disposition and shared sense of identity among people who call themselves Mexican not for national identification but for a cultural one, understood as "Greater Mexico." Sandell contributes to this tradition and achieves an understanding of Greater Mexico characterized by people whose stories and rituals help them find common ground, unity, and wholeness through an open heart. "Open Your Heart is a major contribution to those of us working in the areas of ritual and religion, narrative, and individual life experiences. David P. Sandell is an anthropologist, and this is a beautiful, close ethnographic study of a group of people in the United States who are often badly misunderstood. He persuasively shows us how narrative and ritual work together to accomplish certain goals for the individuals who create and perform them for each other." -Beverly J. Stoeltje, Indiana University "In a finely woven narrative tapestry, David Sandell illuminates key religious moments in the lives of his Fresno, California, interlocutors. Sandell examines an array of religious rituals, and in particular ritual dance as a frame for stories-heterogeneous, and uneven in their telling. The combination of ritual and stories pulls people into a constantly evolving community. Drawing from his finely nuanced ethnographic material, historical reconstructions, and a richly textured narrative style, Sandell, with great aplomb and insight, 'opens our hearts' to the contradictions of the human condition experienced by his subjects. In the process, they, and we, move from spectators to co-producers of a life made meaningful by the shuffling back and forth that emerges in the meaning-making dance this book explores." -Richard R. Flores, University of Texas at Austin
