abstract land surface hydrological models has importance in the determination of soil moisture and temperature, the rate of evapotranspiration, stream flow by emphasis on the land surface physical and dynamic process descriptions. in this research, vic land surface hydrological model has been used for the land surface temperature and stream flow determination. the vic runoff simulation in each ...

Simulation optimization studies the problem of optimizing simulation-based objectives. Simulation optimization is a new and hot topic in the field of system simulation and operational research. To improve the search efficiency, this paper presents a hybrid approach which combined genetic algorithm and local optimization technique for simulation optimization problems. Through the combination of ...

General modeling and optimization of syngas production via noncatalytic autothermal partial oxidation of methane are carried out using our developed scientific software which was based on the minimization of total Gibbs energy. In this work, a novel application of the direct search and Newton-Raphson methods was introduced to apply to optimization of a complex chemical reaction. Sensitivity ana...

THIS THESIS FOCUSES on how to improve design and development of complex engineering systems by employing simulation and optimization techniques. Within the thesis, methods are developed and applied to systems that combine mechanical, hydraulical and electrical subsystems, so-called multi-domain systems. Studied systems include a landing gear system for a civil aircraft, electro-hydrostatic actu...

injection molding is the most widely used process for producing plastic parts.in this process, an important issue is to predict and optimize the warpage before manufacturing. in this paper, a simulation with moldflow software is proposed to optimize the injection molding process. the optimization process aims at minimizing the warpage of the critical injection molding part in which process para...
