RT Journal Article T1 Semideterministic global optimization method: Application to a control problem of the Burgers equation A1 Ivorra, Benjamín Pierre Paul A1 Ramos Del Olmo, Ángel Manuel A1 Mohammadi, B. AB This paper has two objectives. We introduce a new global optimization algorithm reformulating optimization problems in terms of boundary-value problems. Then, we apply this algorithm to a pointwise control problem of the viscous Burgers equation, where the control weight coefficient is progressively decreased. The results are compared with those obtained with a genetic algorithm and an LM-BFGS algorithm in order to check the efficiency of our method and the necessity of using global optimization techniques.
