Optimal Load Distribution

The classic multi-objective optimization method of sub goals multiplication and division theory is applied to solve optimal load distribution problem in thermal power plants. A multi-objective optimization model is built which comprehensively reflects the economy, environmental protection and speediness. The proposed model effectively avoids the target normalization and weights determination existing in the process of changing the multi-objective optimization problem into a single objective optimization problem. Since genetic algorithm (GA) has the drawback of falling into local optimum, adaptive immune vaccines algorithm (AIVA) is applied to optimize the constructed model and the results are compared with that optimized by genetic algorithm. Simulation shows this method can complete multi-objective optimal load distribution quickly and efficiently.

An improved multi-objective genetic algorithm is proposed to solve constrained optimization problems. The constrained optimization problem is converted into a multi-objective optimization problem. In the evolution process, our algorithm is based on multi-objective technique, where the population is divided into dominated and non-dominated subpopulation. Arithmetic crossover operator is utilized for the randomly selected individuals from dominated and non-dominated subpopulation, respectively. The crossover operator can lead gradually the individuals to the extreme point and improve the local searching ability. Diversity mutation operator is introduced for non-dominated subpopulation. Through testing the performance of the proposed algorithm on 3 benchmark functions and 1 engineering optimization problems, and comparing with other meta-heuristics, the result of simulation shows that the proposed algorithm has great ability of global search.

The performance optimization of cognitive radio is a multi-objective optimization problem. Existing genetic algorithms are difficult to assign the weight of each objective when the linear weighting method is used to simplify the multi-objective optimization problem into a single objective optimization problem. In this paper, we propose a new cognitive decision engine algorithm using multi-objective genetic algorithm with population adaptation. A multicarrier system is used for simulation analysis, and experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is effective and meets the real-time requirement.

The Mathematical Model

The weight minimum and drive efficiency maxima1 of screw conveyor were considered as double optimizing objects in this paper. The mathematical model of the screw conveyor has been established based on the theory of the machine design, and the genetic algorithm was adopted to solving the multi-objective optimization problem. The results show that the mass of spiral shaft reduces 13.6 percent, and the drive efficiency increases 6.4 percent because of the optimal design based on genetic algorithm. The genetic algorithm application on the screw conveyor optimized design can provided the basis for designing the screw conveyor.

The Cost

The paper investigates the possibility of applying the genetic algorithm NSGA-II to optimize a reinforced concrete retaining wall embedded in saturated silty sand. Multi-objective constrained optimization was performed to minimize the cost, while maximizing the overdesign factors (ODF) against sliding, overturning, and soil bearing resistance. For a given change in ground elevation of 5.0 m, the width of the foundation and the embedment depth were optimized. Comparing the algorithm's performance in the cases of two-objective and three objective optimizations showed that the number of objectives significantly affects its convergence rate. It was also found that the verification of the wall against the sliding yields a lower ODF value than verifications against overturning and soil bearing capacity. Because of that, it is possible to exclude them from the definition of optimization problem. The application of the NSGA-II algorithm has been demonstrated to be an effective tool for determining the set of optimal retaining wall designs.

The primary objective in designing appropriate particle reinforced polyurethane composite which will be used as a mould material in soft tooling process is to minimize the cycle time of soft tooling process by providing faster cooling rate during solidification of wax/plastic component. This chapter exemplifies an effective approach to design particle reinforced mould materials by solving the inherent multi-objective optimization problem associated with soft tooling process using evolutionary algorithms. In this chapter, first a brief introduction of multi-objective optimization problem with the key issues is presented. Then, after a short overview on the working procedure of genetic algorithm, a well- established multi-objective evolutionary algorithm, namely NSGA-II along with various performance metrics are described. The inherent multi-objective problem in soft tooling process is demonstrated and subsequently solved using an elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm, NSGA-II. Multi-objective optimization results obtained using NSGA-II are analyzed statistically and validated with real industrial application. Finally the fundamental results of this approach are summarized and various perspectives to the industries along with scopes for future research work are pointed out.

The Cost

The cost of a new ship design heavily depends on the principal dimensions of the ship; however, dimensions minimization often conflicts with the minimum oil outflow (in the event of an accidental spill). This study demonstrates one rational methodology for selecting the optimal dimensions and coefficients of form of tankers via the use of a genetic algorithm. Therein, a multi-objective optimization problem was formulated by using two objective attributes in the evaluation of each design, specifically, total cost and mean oil outflow. In addition, a procedure that can be used to balance the designs in terms of weight and useful space is proposed. A genetic algorithm was implemented to search for optimal design parameters and to identify the nondominated Pareto frontier. At the end of this study, three real ships are used as case studies.
