Response Surface Approximations for Engineering Optimization
In these lecture notes attention is focused on the use of Response Surface Models as approximation models in engineering optimization. Common strategies are discussed for efficient model construction, based on principles from statistical experimental desi

ACADEMIC YEAR 2000 The Oswatitsch Session in Memory of Univ.-Prof. em. Dr. phil. Dr.-Ing. E.H. mult. Klaus Oswatitsch, Vienna, and his Work Klaus Oswatitsch was born in Marburg/Drau, in 1910. He attended the University of Graz, where he also graduated as Doctor of Philosophy. Between 1938 ad 1946 he worked as a scientific assistant of Ludwig Prandtl in Goettingen at the former Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institute for Flow Research (now Max-Planck-Institute). In I 943 he received his venia /egendi from the University of Goettingen. Oswatitsch's fundamental research in the field of fluid dynamics, which brought him worldwide reputation and fame, was stimulated by Ludwig Prandtl. For the first time ever, Oswatitsch calculated the condensation processes in moist air in Laval jets. His ideas on implementing nucleus formation and the subsequent growth of drops into the fundamental equations of fluid dynamics are still, after more than 50 years, the starting point for any investigation into this highly topical field of research. Furthermore, he discovered the principle of the collision diffuser, and proved it both experimentally and theoretically. In the diffuser, a supersonic flow can by generated without substantial loss by a sequence of diagonal collisions with a final weak perpendicular collision. A further important work is his formulation of the fundamental law of air resistance as an integral of the entropy flo
