Using an Improved Differential Evolution for Scheduling Optimization of Dual-Gantry Multi-Head Surface-Mount Placement Machine

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...

A Variable Neighbourhood Monte Carlo Search For Multi-Head Surface Mount Device Placement Machine

MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION OF ARCH DAMS USING DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTION METHODS

For optimization of real-world arch dams, it is unavoidable to consider two or more conflicting objectives. This paper employs two multi-objective differential evolution algorithms (MoDE) in combination of a parallel working MATLAB-APDL code to obtain a set of Pareto solutions for optimal shape of arch dams. Full dam-reservoir interaction subjected to seismic loading is considered. A benchmark ...

An Improved Optimization Model for Scheduling of a Multi-Product Tree-Like Pipeline

In the petroleum supply chain, oil refined products are often delivered to distribution centers by pipelines since they provide the most reliable and economical mode of transportation over large distances. This paper addresses the optimal scheduling of a complex pipeline network with multiple branching lines. The main challenge is to find the optimal sequence and time of product injections/deli...
