چکیده

This paper presents some ideas about an approach which aims at extending existing methodologies for functional testing. Experience in automotive applications has shown that when selecting parameters for functional testing, many times a tester has equivalence classes in mind. Instead of losing valuable information in the process, support should be given to make them manageable. The proposed approach suggests evolutionary testing strategies to search for critical representatives within equivalence classes.

Determination of Optimal Parameters for Finite Plates with a Quasi-Square Hole

This paper aims at optimizing the parameters involved in stress analysis of perforated plates, in order to achieve the least amount of stress around the square-shaped holes located in a finite isotropic plate using metaheuristic optimization algorithms. Metaheuristics may be classified into three main classes: evolutionary, physics-based, and swarm intelligence algorithms. This research uses Ge...
