ABSTRACT- Agricultural extension agents should provide dry land producers with appropriate education to make them more interested in learning about water use optimization. Therefore, it is recommended to accompany education with art. In this regard, a study, using the randomized experimental research design, was carried out among dry land grape producers in Herayjan village, Southwest Iran, usi...

in the current work, different methods for optimization of turbine blade internal cooling are investigated, to achieve higher cyclic efficiency and output power for a typical gas turbine. a simple two-dimensional model of c3x blade is simulated and validated with available experimental data. the optimization process is performed on this model with two different methods. the first method is a po...

the simultaneous optimization of multiple responses is an important problem in the design of industrial processes in order to achieve improved quality. in this paper, we present a new metaheuristic approach including simulated annealing and particle swarm optimization to optimize all responses simultaneously. for the purpose of illustration and comparison, the proposed approach is applied to tw...

this paper focuses upon the development of an efficient method for conceptual design optimization of a satellite. there are many option for a satellite subsystems that could be choice, as acceptable solution to implement of a space system mission. every option should be assessment based on the different criteria such as cost, mass, reliability and technology contraint (complexity). in this rese...
