optimization of cutting conditions is a non-linear optimization with constraint and it is very important to the increase of productivity and the reduction of costs. in recent years, several evolutionary and meta-heuristic optimization algorithms were introduced. the cuckoo optimization algorithm (coa) is one of several recent and powerful meta-heuristics which is inspired by the cuckoos and the...

Response surface methodology is a common tool in optimizing processes. It mainly concerns situations when there is only one response of interest. However, many designed experiments often involve simultaneous optimization of several quality characteristics. This is called a Multiresponse Surface Optimization problem. A common approach in dealing with these problems is to apply desirability funct...

In this approach, the Left ventricular assist pump for patients with left ventricular failure isused. The failure of the left ventricle is the most common heart disease during these days. Inthis article, a State feedback controller method is used to optimize the efficiency of a samplingpump current. Particle Swarm Algorithm, which is a set of rules to update the position andvelocity, is applied...

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...

microgrids are small-scale, low voltage (lv) power networks which employ renewable distribution energy resources (ders) with power electronic interfaces (peis). microgrids as single controlled units and active distribution networks require flexible control systems to ensure reliable and secure operation in different modes. these various operations of microgrid cause variations in voltage and fr...

objective(s): the structure- activity relationship of a series of 36 molecules, showing l-type calcium channel blocking was studied using a qsar (quantitative structure–activity relationship) method. materials and methods: structures were optimized by the semi-empirical am1 quantum-chemical method which was also used to find structure-calcium channel blocking activity trends. several types of d...
