In recent years, soft computing methods have generated a large research interest. The synthesis of the fuzzy logic and the evolutionary algorithms is one of these methods. A particular evolutionary algorithm (EA) is differential evolution (DE). As for any EA, DE algorithm also requires parameters tuning to achieve desirable performance. In this paper tuning the perturbation factor vector of DE ...

a significant portion of gross domestic production (gdp) in any country belongs to the transportation system. transportation equipment, in the other hand, is supposed to be great consumer of oil products. many attempts have been assigned to the vehicles to cut down greenhouse gas (ghg). in this paper a novel heuristic algorithm based on clark and wright algorithm called green clark and wright (...

For any agency dealing with the design of the water distribution network, an economic design will be an objective. In this research, Central Force Optimization (CFO) and Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm were used to optimize Ismail Abad water Distribution network. Optimization of the network has been evaluated by developing an optimization model based on CFO and DE algorithm in MATLAB and ...

This paper proposes an effective multi-objective differential evolution algorithm (MDES) to solve a permutation flow shop scheduling problem (PFSSP) with modified Dejong's learning effect. The proposed algorithm combines the basic differential evolution (DE) with local search and borrows the selection operator from NSGA-II to improve the general performance.  First the problem is encoded with a...

1. Introduction Let P(x,y) denote the number of integers specified in the title. A number of estimates and asymptotic formulae for this function have been given (cf. [1] and the literature mentioned there). Recently DE BRUIJN ([2]) proved an asymptotic formula for log f(x,y) which holds uniformly for 2 < y < x. Part of the proof consisted of showing that P(x y) > C 71(y) + u\ where u = [(log x)...

This paper describes the impact of the distance and the size of the corona ring, on the magnitude anddistribution of electrical potential across the polymer insulators. The procedure is based on finiteelement method numerical analysis and stochastic optimization algorithm of differential evolution(DE). The optimal selection of corona ring has a significant impact on the control of potential and...
