What will I learn?
This course offers a practical guide to mastering derivatives for optimisation in engineering design. Learners will convert physical needs into objective functions and constraints, utilise partial derivatives, gradients, Hessians, and KKT conditions, and confirm solutions through sensitivity analysis, clear reports, and practical engineering factors in an efficient format.
