In this paper, a non-dominated sorting based multi objective EA (MOEA), called Elitist non dominated sorting genetic algorithm (Elitist NSGA) has been presented for solving the fault section estimation problem in automated distribution systems, which alleviates the difficulties associated with conventional techniques of fault section estimation. Due to the presence of various conflicting object...

In this study, two parameters of surface roughness and volumetric material removal rate are optimized based on computational intelligence method. Wire electrical discharge machine is used for machining of cold-work steel 2601. The relation between Input parameters including electrical current, pulse-off time, open-circuit voltage and gap voltage and output parameters is studied via Experimental...

In this paper, a procedure has been introduced to the multi-objective optimal design of semi-active tuned mass dampers (SATMDs) with variable stiffness for nonlinear structures considering soil-structure interaction under multiple earthquakes. Three bi-objective optimization problems have been defined by considering the mean of maximum inter-story drift as safety criterion of structural compone...

Over the past two decades, maritime transportation and container traffic worldwide has experienced rapid and continuous growth. With the increase in maritime transportation volume, the issue of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission has become one of the new concerns for port managers. Port managers and government agencies for sustainable development of maritime transportation considered "green ports" t...

The interbasin water transfer is a remedy to mitigate the negative issues of water shortage in arid and semi-arid regions. In  a water transfer project  the receiving basin always  benefits while, the sending basin may suffer. In this study, the project of interbasin water transfer from Dez water resources system in south-west of Iran to the central part of the contrary is  investigated during...

In this paper an accurate method is presented for determining of the device sizes in a RF circuit based on genetic algorithm (GA). HSPICE RF simulation is used for evaluating of the fitness of the circuit specifications per every iteration of the GA. Also an example for a LNA is presented for evaluating of non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) as a method of multi objective genetic ...
