Iterative Methods Sample Clauses

The Iterative Methods clause defines the process by which parties will repeatedly refine or improve a product, service, or deliverable through a series of cycles or stages. Typically, this involves regular feedback, testing, and adjustments at each stage, allowing for incremental progress and continuous improvement. For example, in software development, this might mean delivering working versions at set intervals and incorporating user feedback before moving to the next phase. The core function of this clause is to ensure flexibility and adaptability in project execution, reducing the risk of major errors and aligning the final outcome more closely with the parties' evolving needs.
Iterative Methods. ‌ When an efficient decomposition of the convolution matrix is not available, for example when zero boundary conditions are used, we have to resort to iterative methods. We have implemented the following iterative methods in PYRET: CGLS, LSQR, MR2, MRNSD and their preconditioned versions. Conjugate gradient least squares (CGLS) [6] treats (3.2) as a least squares problem, and is mathematically equivalent to applying the conjugate gradi- ent method to the normal equations. LSQR is another popular method for solving least squares problems. Its use of Lanczos bidiagonalization makes it more stable for ill-conditioned matrices. For details of LSQR, see [56]. MR2 [34] is a modification of the the classical minimum residual method of Paige and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ [55] that is more appropriate for ill-posed inverse prob- lems when the matrix is symmetric, and possibly indefinite. MRNSD [46] is a modification of the standard residual norm steepest descent method [61] that enforces a nonnegativity constraint on the solution. Some good references for iterative methods are [12, 20, 61].

Iterative Methods. ‌ Most iterative methods can be viewed as a proper decomposition of A, then solve an important and treat the rest as a perturbation term. In ▇▇▇▇▇▇ method, wer decompose A = D + B where D is the diagonal part and B is the off diagonal part. Since A is diagonally dominant, we may approximate x by the sequence xn, where xn is defined by the following iteration scheme: Dxn+1 + Bxn = b. Let the error en := xn+1 − xn. Then Or Let us define the maximum norm Den = −Ben−1 en = −D−1Ben−1. ǁ := max |e | ǁe

  • Construction Methods 3.1 The Contractor shall provide all tools, equipment, materials, labor and work for the excavation and removal of the unsuitable subgrade soils and their subsequent replacement with the specified backfill soils as directed by the Owner’s representative. All work under this item shall be performed in a safe and workmanlike manner. 3.2 All work shall be performed in accordance with DelDOT Standard Specifications Section 821. 3.3 Following the removal of existing pavements, the Owner’s representative will review the exposed subgrade and provide recommendations for the undercutting of unsuitable subgrade materials as required. The depth and extent of undercut excavation, if required, will be determined by the Owner’s representative at the time of excavation. 3.4 All excavated materials shall become the property of the Contractor and be removed from the site at the completion of the project at no additional expense to the Owner. 3.5 Undercut excavations should be backfilled with graded aggregate. Backfill shall be placed in loose lifts not exceeding 8 inches thick. Each lift should be compacted with at least 3 passes of a minimum 5-ton, walk-behind or self-propelled vibratory roller when the size of the area permits, or with a vibrating plate mechanical compactor for smaller areas. Lift thickness shall be reduced to 6 inch loose lift when using a vibratory plate compactor. 3.6 The Contractor shall take precautions as necessary to minimize the potential for disturbance or softening of the pavement subgrade materials from inclement weather or construction traffic. As a minimum, this shall include the placement of backfill on the same day as the excavation. Any soft areas which develop shall be undercut and replaced with graded aggregate at no additional cost to the Owner. 3.7 Where undercutting is performed, the geotextile fabric shall be installed. The fabric should be pulled tight and lapped a minimum of 12 inches.

  • Particular Methods of Procurement of Goods and Works International Competitive Bidding. Goods and works shall be procured under contracts awarded on the basis of International Competitive Bidding.

  • Other Methods of Procurement of Goods and Works The following table specifies the methods of procurement, other than International Competitive Bidding, which may be used for goods and works. The Procurement Plan shall specify the circumstances under which such methods may be used: (a) National Competitive Bidding (b) Shopping (c) Direct Contracting

  • Alternate Work Schedule An alternate work schedule is any work schedule where an employee is regularly scheduled to work five (5) days per week, but the employee’s regularly scheduled two (2) days off are NOT Saturday and Sunday.

  • Alternative Work Schedule An alternate forty (40) hour work schedule (other than five (5) uniform and consecutive eight (8) hour days in a seven (7) day period), or for hospital personnel an eighty (80) hour workweek in a fourteen (14) day period and other mutually agreed upon schedules that comply with applicable federal and state law. Employee work schedules normally include two (2) consecutive days off.
