ABOUT HILL-CLIMBING PROBLEMS IN STRUCTURAL MECHANICS

Abstract

The distinctive paper is devoted to some topical issues related to hill-climbing problems (minimum search, maximum search in structural mechanics. Theoretical foundations for computing of the minimum and maximum of functions and functionals (these problem normally turn up within variational methods) including several simplest samples and the corresponding mixed case of finding the minimum (maximum) of the integral, when both the variables and the functions vary
