Optimal algorithm to multimodal solution space formed by CFD simulator

چکیده
For die-casting, various approaches to finding the optimal control settings and optimal mold by using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulator have recently been studied and applied. However, the optimal value obtained by using a conventional CFD simulator does not consistently agree with experiment, owing to computational error. Accordingly, we analyze the problem of optimization with a CFD simulator in order to develop an optimization method that can consistently produce suitable results. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed method, it was applied to the optimization of plunger speed in die-casting.

Providing an algorithm for solving general optimization problems based on Domino theory
Optimization is a very important process in engineering. Engineers can create better production only if they make use of optimization tools in reduction of its costs including consumption time. Many of the engineering real-word problems are of course non-solvable mathematically (by mathematical programming solvers). Therefore, meta-heuristic optimization algorithms are needed to solve these pro...

This paper proposes a GA-based reduced search space technique (GA-RSS) for the optimal design of steel moment frames. It tries to reduce the computation time by focusing the search around the boundaries of the constraints, using a ranking-based constraint handling to enhance the efficiency of the algorithm. This attempt to reduce the search space is due to the fact that in most optimization pro...
