in this study, a hybrid intelligent model has been designed to predict groundwater inflow to a mine pit during its advance. novel hybrid method coupling artificial neural network (ann) with genetic algorithm (ga) called ann-ga, was utilised. ratios of pit depth to aquifer thickness, pit bottom radius to its top radius, inverse of pit advance time and the hydraulic head (hh) in the observation w...

In this paper the Phase-Matching bandwidth, effective nonlinear coefficient and the walk-off angle within the effective bandwidth of the LiGa(SexS1-x)2 biaxial nonlinear crystals are calculated using the Genetic algorithm (GA). This calculation is held for all tree principle XY, YZ and XZ planes individually. The results are shown the accuracy of the applied algorithm is quite qualified.

This paper presents an optimal portfolio selection approach based on value at risk (VaR), conditional value at risk (CVaR), worst-case value at risk (WVaR) and partitioned value at risk (PVaR) measures as well as calculating these risk measures. Mathematical solution methods for solving these optimization problems are inadequate and very complex for a portfolio with high number of assets. For t...

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is one of the most important combinational optimization problems that have nowadays received much attention because of its practical applications in industrial and service problems. In this paper, a hybrid two-phase meta-heuristic algorithm called MACSGA used for solving the TSP is presented. At the first stage, the TSP is solved by the modified ant colony s...

permanent magnet synchronous generators (pmsgs) are novel generators which can be used in high-performance wind farms. high efficiency and flexibility in producing electricity from variable rotation make them good candidate for wind power applications. furthermore, because these kinds of generators have no excitation winding, there is no copper loss on rotor; hence, they can operate at high pow...

Aiming at the PVC production process is complex, the large critical devices polymerizer running need to constantly monitor the characteristics, performance monitoring and fault diagnosis polymerizer for the large PVC batch production process. First of all, for the lack of standard LMBP algorithm, the LMBP neural network algorithm is improved; Secondly, based on the genetic algorithm (GA) and im...

labyrinth spillway is an appropriate option to pass pmf discharge. the most advantages of this type of spillway are higher discharge capacity, easy aeration as well as low fluctuations of flow surface. it is essential to find the optimum geometry considering the maximum passing discharge under specific hydraulic conditions with minimum construction cost. in this study, fuzzy inference system (f...

Many significant engineering and scientific problems involve optimization of some criteria over a combinatorial configuration space. The two methods most often used to solve these problems effectively—simulated annealing (SA) and genetic algorithms (GA)—do not easily lend themselves to massive parallel implementations. Simulated annealing is a naturally serial algorithm, while GA involves a sel...
