This paper presents the study of the optimized bi-dimensional wood structures, truss type, applying the method of genetic algorithms. Assessment is performed by means of a computer program called OPS (Optimization of Plane Structures). The purpose is to meet the optimum geometric configuration taking into account the volume reduction. Different strategies are considered for the positioning of d...

‎This paper proposes a multi-supplier multi-product inventory model in which the suppliers have unlimited production capacity, allow delayed payment, and offer either an all-unit or incremental discount. The retailer can delay payment until after they have sold all the units of the purchased product. The retailer’s warehouse is limited, but the surplus can be stored in a rented warehouse at a...

Due to the complex structural issues and increasing number of design variables, a rather fast optimization algorithm to lead to a global swift convergence history without multiple attempts may be of major concern. Genetic Algorithm (GA) includes random numerical technique that is inspired by nature and is used to solve optimization problems. In this study, a novel GA method based on self-a...

This study aimed to explore the directional stability issues of a previously studied light box-wing aircraft model with pusher propeller engine in fuselage aft section. Earlier configurations have included use together lifting system consisting two wings joined at their wingtips vertical stabilizers. However, these side surfaces failed provide sufficient stability, thus prompting quest this for...

Ducted-fan tail-sitter unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) provide versatility and unique benefits, attracting significant attention in various applications. This study focuses on developing a safe reinforcement learning method for back-transition control between level flight mode hover ducted-fan UAVs. Our enables transition with minimal altitude change time while adhering to the velocity constrai...

The speech enhancement techniques are often employed to improve the quality and intelligibility of the noisy speech signals. This paper discusses a novel technique for speech enhancement which is based on Singular Value Decomposition. This implementation utilizes a Genetic Algorithm based optimization method for reducing the effects of environmental noises from the singular vectors as well as t...

ant colony optimisation (aco) algorithm and adaptive refinement mechanism are used in this paper for solution of optimization problems. many of the real engineering problems are، however، of continuous nature and finding their solution by discrete ant based algorithms requires discretisation of the decision variables in which affected the convergence and performance of the algorithm. in this pa...

This work proposes a subwavelength porous meta-liner with broadband sound absorption from 900 to 1,200 Hz. The consists of four subunits, which are made up material and hollow coiling slit embedded in it. Each subunit is designed by adjusting the length its achieve resonance target frequency examined finite element method (FEM). These subunits arranged an axial direction uniformly radial period...

this paper presents a biogeography-based optimization (bbo) algorithm to solve the economic loaddispatch (eld) problem with generator constraints in thermal plants. the applied method can solvethe eld problem with constraints like transmission losses, ramp rate limits, and prohibited operatingzones. biogeography is the science of the geographical distribution of biological species. the modelsof...

INTRODUCTION There have been increasing reports of annoyance, fatigue, and even neck and back pain during prolonged operation of military propeller aircraft, where persistent multi-axis vibration occurs at higher frequencies beyond human whole-body resonance. This paper characterizes and assesses the higher frequency vibration transmitted to the occupants onboard these aircraft. METHODS Multi...
