This book is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students in applied mathematics or computer science, as a tool for solving real-world design problems. The present work covers fundamentals in multi-objective optimization and applications in mathematical and engineering system design using a new optimization strategy, namely the Self-Adaptive Multi-objective Optimization Differential Evolution (SA-MODE) algorithm. This strategy is proposed in order to reduce the number of evaluations of the objective function through dynamic update of canonical Differential Evolution parameters (population size, crossover probability and perturbation rate). The methodology is applied to solve mathematical functions considering test cases from the literature and various engineering systems design, such as cantilevered beam design, biochemical reactor, crystallization process, machine tool spindle design, rotary dryer design, among others.

He received his Chemical Engineering degree, his MSc in Chemical Engineering and his PhD degree in Mechanical Engineering, all from the Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil, in 2001, 2004 and 2008, respectively. During the year of 2009 he worked in the Federal University of São João Del Rei, Brazil. Since 2010, he has been Assistant Professor at the School of Chemical Engineering of the Federal University of Uberlândia. His current research interests include bio-inspired optimization algorithms, optimal control theory, reliability and robust optimization, and inverse problems.
Valder Steffen Jr. was born in Rio Claro, Brazil, in 1952. He received his degree on Mechanical Engineering from University of Campinas - Unicamp, Brazil, in 1976. Then, his doctorate and his Habilitation (H.D.R) were both obtained from the Franche-Comté University (Besançon, France) in 1979 and 1991, respectively. His current position is Professor of Mechanical Engineering, School of Mechanical Engineering at the Federal University of Uberlândia, Brazil. His research interests include dynamics of mechanical systems, optimization algorithms, smart structures and materials, and inverse problems in engineering sciences. Prof. Steffen is member of the following professional societies: ABCM, SEM, ABMEC and SBMAC.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
