In 2012, Rivaie et al. introduced RMIL conjugate gradient (CG) method which is globally convergent under the exact line search. Later, Dai (2016) pointed out abnormality in the convergence result and thus, imposed certain restricted RMIL CG parameter as a remedy.

In this numerical investigation, completely developed laminar convective heat transfer characteristics of a Williamson hybrid ferronanofluid over a cylindrical surface are reported. This new model in 2D is engaged to examine the effects of the magnetic field, thermal radiation factor, volume fraction of ultrafine particles, and Weissenberg number with the help of the Keller box method. The numerical calculations are implemented at a magnetic parameter range of 0.

The three-term conjugate gradient (CG) algorithms are among the efficient variants of CG algorithms for solving optimization models. This is due to their simplicity and low memory requirements. On the other hand, the regression model is one of the statistical relationship models whose solution is obtained using one of the least square methods including the CG-like method.

The study of efficient iterative algorithms for addressing nonlinear least-squares (NLS) problems is of great importance. The NLS problems, which belong to a special class of unconstrained optimization problems, are of particular interest because of the special structure of their gradients and Hessians. In this paper, based on the spectral parameters of Barzillai and Borwein (1998), we propose three structured spectral gradient algorithms for solving NLS problems.
