Entropy and Civil Engineering Optimization

Templeman, Andrew B.

Abstract Recent research is surveyed which has demonstrated the value of the Maximum Entropy Principle in many aspects of civil engineering analysis as a means of logically infering missing data. The numerical optimization process is characterized as one of infering a solution from partial information. New strategies for numerical optimization based upon entropy maximization are introduced.
