In this paper, two evolutionary algorithmsInvasive Weed Optimization (IWO) based power system stabilizer (PSS) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) based power system stabilizer is designed for multi-machine power system to compare their tuning performances. IWO is a derivative-free real parameter optimization technique that mimics the ecological behavior of colonizing weeds. PSO is also a der...

differential steering of in-wheel electric vehicle provides the functions of both active steering and power assisted steering with the coupling control of force and displacement transfer characteristic of system. a collaborative optimization model of the differential power-assisted steering system of in-wheel electric vehicle is built, with steering economy as the main system optimization goal,...

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This study concerns the optimization of green supply chain network design under demand uncertainty. The issue uncertainty has been addressed using a scenario-based analysis approach. main contribution this research is to investigate cross-dock based formulation and metaheuristic algorithms. problem formulated as two-objective mathematical model with objectives...

Exotic invasive plants present one of the greatest challenges to natural resource management. These weeds can alter entire communities and ecosystems, substantially degrading important ecosystem services such as forage for wild and domestic herbivores, water and soil quality, recreational values, and wildlife habitat. Traditionally, weed management in natural areas has focused on removing the t...

Management of damaging invasive plants is often undertaken by multiple decision makers, each managing only a small part of the invader's population. As weeds can move between properties and re-infest eradicated sites from unmanaged sources, the dynamics of multiple decision makers plays a significant role in weed prevalence and invasion risk at the landscape scale. We used a spatially explicit ...

The direct negative effects of invasive plant species on agriculture and biodiversity are well known, but their indirect effects on human health, and particularly their interactions with disease-transmitting vectors, remains poorly explored. This study sought to investigate the impact of the invasive Neotropical weed Parthenium hysterophorus and its toxins on the survival and energy reserves of...

determining the optimal location of wells with the aid of an automated search algorithm is a significant and difficult step in the reservoir development process. it is a computationally intensive task due to the large number of simulation runs required. therefore,the key issue to such automatic optimization is development of algorithms that can find acceptable solutions with a minimum number of...

Through social media platforms and the internet, world is becoming more connected, producing enormous amounts of data. Also, texts are collected from media, newspapers, user reviews products, company press releases, etc. The correctness classification mainly dependent on kind words utilised in corpus features for classification. Hence, due to increasing growth text data Internet, accurate organ...
