This contribution deals with an optimal design of a brushless DC motor, using optimization algorithms, based on collective intelligence. For this purpose, the case study motor is perfectly explained and its significant specifications are obtained as functions of the motor geometric parameters. In fact, the geometric parameters of the motor are considered as optimization variables. Then, the obj...

Linear flux switching motors with simple passive segmented secondary, referred as Segmented Secondary Linear Flux Switching Motors (SSLFSMs), have low cost secondary and therefore are applicable to transportation systems like Maglev. However, it is shown that the SSLFSMs suffer from high thrust ripples. In this paper, minimizing SSLFSM thrust ripples besides maximizing its developed thrust are ...

because the underlying physiology of pathological tremor in a parkinson's patient is not well understood, the existing physical and drug therapies have not been successful in tremor treatment. different mathematical modeling of such vibration has been introduced to investigate the problem and reduce the existing vibration. most of the models have represented the induced vibration as a sinusoida...

In November 2003, the City of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada equipped five solid waste collection trucks with Trimble Telvisant CrossCheck® GPRS 1900 Mobile data recorders. Three of the trucks are garbage packers, the fourth truck is a side-loading recycling truck, and the fifth vehicle is a 60/40-split co-collection truck equipped with a cart lifter. These trucks operated in a variety of situations...

Design of blast resistant structures is an important subject in structural engineering, attracting the attention of governments, researchers, and engineers. Thus, given the benefits of optimization in engineering, development and assessment of optimization methods for optimum design of structures against blast is of great importance. In this research, multi-objective optimization of steel momen...

in this paper, a consistent pattern with the optimal coordinated design of pss and sssc controller to improve the damping of low frequency oscillations is shown. in this design, sensing and signal transmission time delays are considered as effectiveness parameters. the design problem has been considered an optimization problem and biogeography-based optimization (bbo) algorithm is used for sear...

A new method of optimization on linear parabolic solar collectors using exergy analysis is presented. A comprehensive mathematical modeling of thermal and optical performance is simulated and geometrical and thermodynamic parameters were assumed as optimization variables. By applying a derived expression for exergy efficiency, exergy losses were generated and the optimum design and operating co...
