A Green Competitive Vehicle Routing Problem under Uncertainty Solved by an Improved Differential Evolution Algorithm

Regarding the development of distribution systems in the recent decades, fuel consumption of trucks has increased noticeably, which has a huge impact on greenhouse gas emissions. For this reason, the reduction of fuel consumption has been one of the most important research areas in the last decades. The aim of this paper is to propose a robust mathematical model for a variant of a vehicle routi...

Well Placement Optimization Using Differential Evolution Algorithm

Determining the optimal location of wells with the aid of an automated search algorithm is a significant and difficult step in the reservoir development process. It is a computationally intensive task due to the large number of simulation runs required. Therefore,the key issue to such automatic optimization is development of algorithms that can find acceptable solutions with a minimum numbe...

Existence Results of Nondensely Defined Fractional Evolution Differential Inclusions

Local nonsmooth Lyapunov pairs for first-order evolution differential inclusions

The general theory of Lyapunov’s stability of first-order differential inclusions in Hilbert spaces has been studied by the authors in a previous work [2]. This new contribution focuses on the natural case when the maximally monotone operator governing the given inclusion has a domain with nonempty interior. This setting permits to have nonincreasing Lyapunov functions on the whole trajectory o...

A Hybrid Fire Fly and Differential Evolution Algorithm for Optimization of a Mixed Repairable and Non-Repairable System Reliability Problem

In this paper, a hybrid meta-heuristic approach is proposed to optimize the mathematical model of a system with mixed repairable and non-repairable components. In this system, repairable and non-repairable components are connected in series. Redundant components and preventive maintenance strategies are applied for non-repairable and repairable components, respectively. The problem is formulate...
