BIG BANG – BIG CRUNCH ALGORITHM FOR LEAST-COST DESIGN OF WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS
The Big Bang-Big Crunch (BB–BC) method is a relatively new meta-heuristic algorithm which inspired by one of the theories of the evolution of universe. In the BB–BC optimization algorithm, firstly random points are produced in the Big Bang phase then these points are shrunk to a single representative point via a center of mass or minimal cost approach in the Big Crunch phase. In this paper, the...
متن کاملThe Least Cost Design of Water Distribution Networks Using Water Quality Constraints
Water quality is a very important issue related to people health, but it is not usually considered in water distribution networks (WDNs) design. In this paper, new constraints such as free residual chlorine and the quality performance index are incorporated into the least cost design of water distribution networks. EPANET2 was applied for the hydraulic and quality analysis of water distributio...
متن کاملTheory and Practice of Metro Network Design
Most transit networks are designed empirically. For bus networks this process 1s often satisfactory because bus routes and networks are very dependent on local conditions, and they can be easily modified, allowing easy corrections of problems which line design may cause in operations. However, with transit systems which have extensive infrastructure, most typically metro lines and networks, cor...
متن کاملStochastic survivable network design problems: Theory and practice
We study survivable network design problems with edge-connectivity requirements under a two-stage stochastic model with recourse and finitely many scenarios. For the formulation in the natural space of edge variables we show that facet defining inequalities of the underlying polytope can be derived from the deterministic counterparts. Moreover, by using graph orientation properties we introduce...
متن کاملDesign theory and practice
The method of conducting research significantly influences its progress and quality. This study advocates for subscribing to the scientific method of performing research, namely, generating theories, conducting experiments to support or refute them, and refining the theories. The arguments in favor of this method are discussed in the two parts of the paper. Part I critically reviews General Des...
