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...

A multi-objective optimization (MOO) of two-element wing models with morphing flap by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques, artificial neural networks (ANN), and non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms (NSGA II), is performed in this paper. At first, the domain is solved numerically in various two-element wing models with morphing flap using CFD techniques and lift (L) and drag ...

Ever-increasing energy demand has led to geographic expansion of transmission lines and their complexity. In addition, higher reliability is expected in the transmission systemsdue to their vital role in power systems. It is very difficult to realize this goal by conventional monitoring and control methods. Thus, phasor measurement units (PMUs) are used to measure system parameters. Although in...

This study introduces a green location, routing and inventory problem with customer satisfaction, backup distribution centers and risk of routes in the form of a non-linear mixed integer programming model. In this regard, time window is considered to increase the customer satisfaction of the model and transportation risks is taken into account for the reliability of the system. In addition, dif...

In this research, we propose a bi-objective model for the economic-statistical design of the X-bar and S control charts. The model minimizes out-of-control average time to signal as well as minimizing mean hourly loss-cost where it incorporates the Taguchi loss function. Statistical constraint is considered in the model to achieve desired in-control time to signal. A non-dominated sort...

The authors present a novel system designed to evolve sets of rule bases used to optimise the order of lists of data arrays. Based upon induction learning techniques, an ulgorithm is described which is able to learn the rules most appropriate to ordering data in an attempt to promote a particular trait. A classifier system is employed as the main sorting engine, with a genetic ulgorithm in plac...

Given an array with n elements, we want to rearrange them in ascending order. Sorting algorithms such as the Bubble, Insertion and Selection Sort all have a quadratic time complexity that limits their use when the number of elements is very big. In this paper, we introduce Merge Sort, a divide-andconquer algorithm to sort an N element array. We evaluate the O(NlogN) time complexity of merge sor...

To improve customer satisfaction of cold chain logistics fresh agricultural goods enterprises and reduce the comprehensive distribution cost composed fixed cost, transportation cargo damage refrigeration time penalty a multi-objective path optimization model products considering client is constructed. The solved using an enhanced Elitist Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II), differ...

Static Var compensator (SVC) is one of flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) elements mainly used for reactive power and voltage control in power systems. This paper deals with multi-modal electromechanical oscillations damping in the presence of severe disturbances. These oscillations include local modes, interarea modes and inter-plant modes. To enhance the damping of the oscillations, a co...

electric wheelchairs (ew) experience various terrains surfaces and slopesas well asoccupants with diverse weights. this, in turn, imparts a substantial amount of perturbation to the ewdynamics. in this paper we make use of a two-degree-of-freedom control architecture called disturbance observer (dob) which reduces sensitivity to model uncertainties while enhancing rejection of disturbances caus...
