In this paper, five variants of Differential Evolution (DE) algorithms are proposed to solve the multi-echelon supply chain network optimization problem. Supply chain network composed of different stages which involves products, services and information flow between suppliers and customers, is a value-added chain that provides customers products with the quickest delivery and the most competitive price. Hence, there is a need to optimize the supply chain by finding the optimum configuration of the network in order to get a good compromise between several objectives. The supply chain problem utilized in this study is taken from literature which incorporates demand, capacity, raw-material availability, and sequencing constraints in order to maximize total profitability. The performance of DE variants has been investigated by solving three stage multi-echelon supply chain network optimization problems for twenty demand scenarios with each supply chain settings. The objective is to find the optimal alignment of procurement, production, and distribution while aiming towards maximizing profit. The results show that the proposed DE algorithm is able to achieve better performance on a set of supply chain problem with different scenarios those obtained by well-known classical GA and PSO.

In this paper, a double bypass variable cycle engine with FLADE (Fan on Blade) is considered. The FLADE VCE is one of the research hotspots for future military and civil aircraft power device, which shows outstanding performance advantages. Compared to the mixed-flow turbofan, FLADE VCE is more complex than conventional aero-engine for its multi-components and multi-variable parts, which make it difficult to modeling and optimization. For getting the performance of FLADE VCE, the model for engine performance simulation is researched. The method for FLADE performance simulation and the steady-state performance simulation model for FLADE VCE are developed. And a component-based engine performance simulation system is established based on object-oriented modeling method. For obtaining the optimal integrated performance of FLADE VCE, suitable optimization method is required. Unfortunately, the optimization of FLADE VCE is a non-linear non-differentiable problem, which makes it difficult to solve by conventional deterministic optimization method. In order to solve this problem, the differential evolution (DE) algorithm is considered. To overcome the limitations of original DE algorithm, an improved DE algorithm with modifying mutation operator is proposed by this paper. The FLADE VCE optimization problem is solved by employing the improved DE algorithm.

To assess the inverse kinematics (IK) of multiple degree-of-freedom (DOF) serial manipulators, this article proposes a method for solving the IK of manipulators using an improved self-adaptive mutation differential evolution (DE) algorithm. First, based on the self-adaptive DE algorithm, a new adaptive mutation operator and adaptive scaling factor are proposed to change the control parameters and differential strategy of the DE algorithm. Then, an error-related weight coefficient of the objective function is proposed to balance the weight of the position error and orientation error in the objective function. Finally, the proposed method is verified by the benchmark function, the 6-DOF and 7-DOF serial manipulator model. Experimental results show that the improvement of the algorithm and improved objective function can significantly improve the accuracy of the IK. For the specified points and random points in the feasible region, the proportion of accuracy meeting the specified requirements is increased by 22.5% and 28.7%, respectively.

When analyzing a metabolic pathway in a mathematical model, it is important that the essential parameters are estimated correctly. However, this process often faces few problems like when the number of unknown parameters increase, trapping of data in the local minima, repeated exposure to bad results during the search process and occurrence of noisy data. Thus, this paper intends to present an improved bee memory differential evolution (IBMDE) algorithm to solve the mentioned problems. This is a hybrid algorithm that combines the differential evolution (DE) algorithm, the Kalman filter, artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, and a memory feature. The aspartate and threonine biosynthesis pathway, and cell cycle pathway are the metabolic pathways used in this paper. For three production simulation pathways, the IBMDE managed to robustly produce the estimated optimal kinetic parameter values with significantly reduced errors. Besides, it also demonstrated faster convergence time compared to the Nelder–Mead (NM), simulated annealing (SA), the genetic algorithm (GA) and DE, respectively. Most importantly, the kinetic parameters that were generated by the IBMDE have improved the production rates of desired metabolites better than other estimation algorithms. Meanwhile, the results proved that the IBMDE is a reliable estimation algorithm.

We propose a new optimization algorithm inspired by the formation and change of the cloud in nature, referred to as Cloud Particles Differential Evolution (CPDE) algorithm. The cloud is assumed to have three states in the proposed algorithm. Gaseous state represents the global exploration. Liquid state represents the intermediate process from the global exploration to the local exploitation. Solid state represents the local exploitation. The best solution found so far acts as a nucleus. In gaseous state, the nucleus leads the population to explore by condensation operation. In liquid state, cloud particles carry out macrolocal exploitation by liquefaction operation. A new mutation strategy called cloud differential mutation is introduced in order to solve a problem that the misleading effect of a nucleus may cause the premature convergence. In solid state, cloud particles carry out microlocal exploitation by solidification operation. The effectiveness of the algorithm is validated upon different benchmark problems. The results have been compared with eight well-known optimization algorithms. The statistical analysis on performance evaluation of the different algorithms on 10 benchmark functions and CEC2013 problems indicates that CPDE attains good performance.

A large amount of inventory in the company makes high inventory cost, while low inventory will risk the occurrence of shortage of inventory. The research was conducted at Barjaz Company, to find out how the raw material inventory system applied by the company, and whether the system is efficient or not. Methods of data collection is done by conducting interviews to parties related to inventory and observation on the object under study. Data analysis techniques used are; EOQ analysis, determining safety stock, determining reorder point, determining maximum inventory, calculating inventory turnover and calculating total inventory cost. The results show that the inventory system applied today is still not effective. Companies should conduct inventory control system using EOQ method. With the implementation of EOQ, the company's inventory turnover value increased and the company issued a total inventory cost of Rp 1,099,982, lower than the company's inventory control system at Rp 1,671,100.
