This paper is concerned with a new linearization strategy for a class of zero-one mixed integer programming problems that contains quadratic cross-product terms between continuous and binary variables ...

For a stochastic programming problem with a nonsmooth objective a recursive stochastic subgradient method is proposed in which successive directions are obtained from quadratic programming subproblems ...

Consider the single-DOF problem of a thin bar pinned to ground with a constant horizontal force F acting at the free end of the bar. This says that for a small perturbation about the equilibrium state ...
