A Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Mixed-Variable Nonlinear Problems
Many engineering design problems involve a combination of both continuous anddiscrete variables. However, the number of studies scarcely exceeds a few on mixed-variableproblems. In this research Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is employed to solve mixedvariablenonlinear problems. PSO is an efficient method of dealing with nonlinear and non-convexoptimization problems. In this paper,...
متن کاملA computational method for nonlinear mixed Volterra-Fredholm integral equations
In this article the nonlinear mixed Volterra-Fredholm integral equations are investigated by means of the modied three-dimensional block-pulse functions (M3D-BFs). This method converts the nonlinear mixed Volterra-Fredholm integral equations into a nonlinear system of algebraic equations. The illustrative examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability and simplicity of our scheme.
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of Discrete Time Observer Based Backstepping Controller for a 2DOF Servomechanism
The two degrees of freedom servomechanism has many applications, including in gimbaled seekers. These mechanisms require closed-loop control to perform properly. In this paper, an observer-based multi-input-multi-output hybrid controller is designed for a two-degree-of-freedom servomechanism. Since in the model presented in this paper, disturbances on the mechanism are considered, so an extende...
متن کاملSEISMIC DESIGN OPTIMIZATION OF STEEL STRUCTURES BY A SEQUENTIAL ECBO ALGORITHM
The objective of the present paper is to propose a sequential enhanced colliding bodies optimization (SECBO) algorithm for implementation of seismic optimization of steel braced frames in the framework of performance-based design (PBD). In order to achieve this purpose, the ECBO is sequentially employed in a multi-stage scheme where in each stage an initial population is generated based on the ...
متن کاملMonotonicity, Activity and Sequential Linearization in Probabilistic Design Optimization
Design optimization under uncertainty is considered in the context of problems with probabilistic constraints. Probabilistic optimization has been studied for several years; in this dissertation, some theoretical developments in certain classes of deterministic optimization problems are extended to probabilistic ones. Specifically, the optimality conditions of probabilistic optimization and pro...
