چکیده

We present and apply a new simulation/optimization approach for singleand multiple-planning period problems in groundwater remediation. Instead of the traditional control locations for contaminant concentrations, \Ve use an LC>O norm as a global measure of aquifer contamination (CMAX). We use response-surface constraints to represent CMAX within the optimization model. We compare the performance of formal mixed integer nonlinear programming and a genetic algorithm for several optimization scenarios.

Cell forming and cell balancing of virtual cellular manufacturing systems with alternative processing routes using genetic algorithm

Cellular manufacturing (CM) is one of the most important subfields in the design of manufacturing systems and as a recently emerged field of study and practice, virtual cellular manufacturing (VCM) inherits the importance from CM. One type of VCM problems is VCM with alternative processing routes from which the route for processing each part should be selected. In this research, a bi-objective ...

Groundwater Remediation Strategy Using Global Optimization Algorithms

The remediation of groundwater contamination by pumping and injection is generally a long-term and costly strategy. Aquifer cleanup time is a highly nonlinear and nonconvex function of pumping rates. The cleanup objective often involves minimizing or constraining the cleanup time or cleanup cost. Linear programming and nonlinear optimization cannot guarantee the global solution. In this study, ...
