this study proposes a combination of a fuzzy sliding mode controller (fsmc) with integral-proportion-derivative switching surface based superconducting magnetic energy storage (smes) and pid tuned by a multi-objective optimization algorithm to solve the load frequency control in power systems. the goal of design is to improve the dynamic response of power systems after load demand changes. in t...

This paper presents the Parallel Single Front Genetic Algorithm (PSFGA), a parallel Pareto-based algorithm for multiobjective optimization problems based on an evolutionary procedure. In this procedure, a population of solutions is sorted with respect to the values of the objective functions and partitioned into subpopulations which are distributed among the processors. Each processor applies a...

To find solutions as close to the Pareto front as possible, and to make them as diverse as possible in the obtained non-dominated front is a challenging task for any multiobjective optimization algorithm.2-dominance is a concept which can make genetic algorithm obtain a good distribution of Pareto-optimal solutions and has low computational time complexity,and the orthogonal design method can g...

In some real applications of Statistical Process Control it is necessary to design a control chart to not detect small process shifts, but keeping a good performance to detect moderate and large shifts in the quality. In this work we develop a new quality control chart, the synthetic T control chart, which can be designed to cope with this objective. A multi-objective optimization is carried ou...

This study explored the application of a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) and Pareto ordering in the multiple-objective automatic calibration of the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT). SWAT was calibrated in the Calapooia watershed, Oregon, USA, with two different pairs of objective functions in a cluster of 24 parallel computers. The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSG...

this paper uses integrated data envelopment analysis (dea) models to rank all extreme and non-extreme efficient decision making units (dmus) and then applies integrated dea ranking method as a criterion to modify genetic algorithm (ga) for finding pareto optimal solutions of a multi objective programming (mop) problem. the researchers have used ranking method as a shortcut way to modify ga to d...

One of the most important applications of multi-objective optimization is adjusting parameters ofpractical engineering problems in order to produce a more desirable outcome. In this paper, the decoupled sliding mode control technique (DSMC) is employed to stabilize an inverted pendulum which is a classic example of inherently unstable systems. Furthermore, a new Multi-Objective Particle Swarm O...

Nadir objective vector is constructed with the worst Pareto-optimal objective values in a multi-objective optimization problem and is an important entity to compute because of its importance in estimating the range of objective values in the Pareto-optimal front and also in using many interactive multi-objective optimization techniques. It is needed, for example, for normalizing purposes. The t...

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 ...
