Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

In this paper,a SQP method,in which the merit function is nondifferentiable exact penalty function,is presented to solve inequality constraint.The penalty is adjusted automatically.The arc search and the second order correction,which is obtained by solving an auxiliary linear equation system,are used to obtain a feasible descent algorithm.Under some suitable assumptions,it is proved that the convergence of the algorithm is global as well as superlinear.
