Constrained Multi-Objective Optimization Problems in Mechanical Engineering Design Using Bees Algorithm

Many real-world search and optimization problems involve inequality and/or equality constraints and are thus posed as constrained optimization problems. In trying to solve constrained optimization problems using classical optimization methods, this paper presents a Multi-Objective Bees Algorithm (MOBA) for solving the multi-objective optimal of mechanical engineering problems design. In the pre...

Effect of Tool Shoulder and Pin Cone Angles in Friction Stir Welding using Non-circular Tool Pin

In friction stir welding frictional heat is generated by the rotating tool, sliding over the stationary plate along the weld centre. Tool being the only source of heat producing member, its geometrical design influences the heat generation rate. In this present work, effects of variation in tool shoulder and tool pin taper angles on thermal history during joining are analysed. Tools with triang...

Design and Manufacture of a Smart Orthopedic Pin Cutter for Use in the Operating Room and Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgery

Background and Aim: Since pin cutter is used in surgical operations involving screw and orthopedic plating and this is one of the most sensitive surgeries, saving time is very important along with reducing infection rate. The purpose of design the Mini-Pin Cutter is to replace a smaller, lighter, more efficient device than conventional and traditional cutters, which ultimately results in a comf...

Design of a Model Based Compensator for MIMO Systems with Time Delays and Constrained Inputs

Constrained Controller Design for Real-time Delay Recovery in Metro Systems

This study is concerned with the real-time delay recovery problem in metro loop lines. Metro is the backbone of public transportation system in large cities. A discrete event model for traffic system of metro loop lines is derived and presented. Two effective automatic controllers, linear quadratic regulator (LQR) and model predictive controller (MPC), are used to recover train delays. A newly-...
