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 کاملImplicit Extrapolation Methods for Variable Coefficient Problems
SUMMARY Implicit extrapolation methods for the solution of partial diierential equations are based on applying the extrapolation principle indirectly. Multigrid tau-extrapolation is a special case of this idea. In the context of multilevel nite element methods, an algorithm of this type can be used to raise the approximation order, even when the meshes are nonuniform or locally reened. Here pre...

In solving the 1D (flux surface averaged) transport equations for the temperatures, magnetic fields, and densities in the ‘‘evolving equilibrium” description of a tokamak [1], one increasingly encounters highly nonlinear th...
متن کاملConservation Laws of Variable Coefficient Diffusion–Convection Equations
We study local conservation laws of variable coefficient diffusion–convection equations of the form f(x)ut = (g(x)A(u)ux)x + h(x)B(u)ux. The main tool of our investigation is the notion of equivalence of conservation laws with respect to the equivalence groups. That is why, for the class under consideration we first construct the usual equivalence group G∼ and the extended one Ĝ∼ including tran...
متن کاملMultiobjective Optimization of Mixed Variable Design Problems
In this paper, a new multiobjective genetic algorithm is employed to support the design of a hydraulic actuation system. First, the proposed method is tested using benchmarks problems gathered from the literature. The method performs well and it is capable of identifying multiple Pareto frontiers in multimodal function spaces. Secondly, the method is applied to a mixed variable design problem w...
