13h40–14h00 — Salle du conseil (L2S) EXTREMA: Enabling Autonomous Interplanetary Spacecraft Andrea Carlo Morelli (Politecnico di Milano) Abstract. Space missions are extremely expensive, especially deep-space exploration ones. In recent years, the advent of CubeSats (i.e., miniaturized spacecraft) in Low Earth Orbit has drastically decreased spacecraft integration and development costs. However, the costs required to operate […]
The fifty-fifth UQSay seminar on UQ, DACE and related topics will take place online on Thursday afternoon, February 16, 2023. 2–3 PM — Oindrila Kanjilal (T.U. Munich) — [slides] Reliability assessment of structural dynamic systems by importance sampling Engineering structures are sometimes exposed to disastrous dynamic loading, such as strong wind and seismic motions. Structural […]
13h40–14h00 — Salle du conseil (L2S) Aggregative nonconvex optimization: two dual-based methods Thibault Moquet (L2S) Abstract. Problems depending only on a cost function and an aggregate term have several industrial applications. In this talk, I will briefly formalize a framework for such aggregative minimization problems, as well as develop two methods in order to find […]
