The FD= and FDHESSIAN= options specify the use of finite difference approximations of the derivatives. The FD= option specifies that all derivatives are approximated using function evaluations, and ...
Mathematics of Operations Research, Vol. 42, No. 4 (November 2017), pp. 945-978 (34 pages) Calculating optimal policies is known to be computationally difficult for Markov decision processes (MDPs) ...
The stress-displacement-pressure formulation of the elasticity problem may suffer from two types of numerical instabilities related to the finite element interpolation of the unknowns. The first is ...
