Algorithms for three-dimensional free-form object matching
… block of an optimization scheme based on the golden section search which recovers iteratively an optimum scaling factor. Since the golden section search only requires an initial interval for the scaling factor, the solution process is simplified compared to iterative optimization algorithms, …

Alternative estimation methods for survival models
… estimates of the parameters by using the golden section search procedure for computer minimization.

Rhapsody for Piano and Small Orchestra
… various hidden compositional devices such as the golden section principle and a palindrome structure. These devices are applied not only to the structure of the work, but also to the pitch related and rhythm-related matters. Also, certain melodic and rhythmic cells are employed for each section in …

Intelligent distribution fault location using voltage magnitude measurements
… locations are intelligently selected using the Golden section search technique. The best match is determined using the L1-norm. The algorithm is successfully demonstrated using a PowerWorld case study.

A RHYTHMIC ANALYSIS OF MICHAEL TORKE: THREE COLORS AND PRIMARY, SECONDARY, TERTIARY: AN ORIGINAL WORK FOR SYMPHONIC BAND
… motives and their variations, rhythmic canon, sectioning as the basis of form, and stratification. This thesis also provides an analytical notational device when defining a Rhythmic Canon Sequence or a Rhythmic Entrance Series. Through this analysis I demonstrate that all three pieces share …

Solving The Prandtl Boundary Layer Equation in Fluid Dynamics Via Non-Linear Numerical Optimization
… Function) and a gradient vector, as well as a Golden Section Search or Equality Algorithm, are specified in the thin boundary layer. The flow around profiles with sharp corners is mainly considered and applying conformal mappings. These sharp corners are opened for the calculation of a good …

Optimizing replenishment order quantities in uncoordinated supply chains
… of the step points or any intermediate point. A golden section based search heuristic for efficiently deriving the optimal Q was developed. Third, the robustness of Q to demand shifts was studied. A demand shift occurs wherever the mean demand jumps to a higher or lower level, similar to a moving …
