Optimal Operating Conditions for Overhead Crane Maneuvering Using Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
While operating a crane for maximum productivity, the time of operation and the required energy are two important conflicting factors faced by a crane operator. In such a case, trying to reach the destination too quickly demands a large energy supply, while a small powered motion requires longer time. In this paper, we consider such a problem for two different pairs of objectives and employ a multi-objective genetic algorithm for the task. Besides finding a set of trade-off optimized solutions (operating conditions), an analysis of these solutions reveals salient operating principles, which would be difficult to achieve by other means. The methodology demonstrated in this paper can be used for other similar engineering design and application problems.

Approximate Pareto Optimal Solutions of Multi objective Optimal Control Problems by Evolutionary Algorithms
In this paper an approach based on evolutionary algorithms to find Pareto optimal pair of state and control for multi-objective optimal control problems (MOOCP)'s is introduced. In this approach, first a discretized form of the time-control space is considered and then, a piecewise linear control and a piecewise linear trajectory are obtained from the discretized time-control space using ...
