Constraint handling strategies in Genetic Algorithms application to optimal batch plant design
Optimal batch plant design is a recurrent issue in Process Engineering, which can be formulated as a Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming MINLP) optimisation problem involving specific constraints, which can be, typically, the respect of a time horizon for the synthesis of various roducts. Genetic Algorithms constitute a common option for the solution of these problems, but their basic operatin...
متن کاملStrategies for multiobjective genetic algorithm development: Application to optimal batch plant design in process systems engineering
This work deals with multiobjective optimization problems using Genetic Algorithms (GA). A MultiObjective GA (MOGA) is proposed to solve multiobjective problems combining both continuous and discrete variables. This kind of problem is commonly found in chemical engineering since process design and operability involve structural and decisional choices as well as the determination of operating co...
متن کاملOptimal design of batch plants under economic and ecological considerations: Application to a biochemical batch plant
This work deals with the multicriteria cost-environment design of multiproduct batch plants, where the design variables are the equipment item sizes as well as the operating conditions. The case study is a multiproduct batch plant for the production of four recombinant proteins. Given the important combinatorial aspect of the problem, the approach used consists in coupling a stochastic algorith...
متن کاملOptimal design of plant lighting system by genetic algorithms
A genetic algorithm technique is developed for the optimal design of a supplemental lighting system for greenhouse crop production. The approach uses the evolutionary parallel search capabilities of genetic algorithms to design the pattern layout of the lamps (luminaires), their mounting heights and their wattages. The total number and the exact positions of luminaires are not predefined (even ...
متن کاملConstraint Handling in Genetic Algorithms: The Set Partitioning Problem
In this paper we present a genetic algorithm-based heuristic for solving the set partitioning problem (SPP). The SPP is an important combinatorial optimisation problem used by many airlines as a mathematical model for flight crew scheduling. A key feature of the SPP is that it is a highly constrained problem, all constraints being equalities. New genetic algorithm (GA) components: separate fitn...
