The multi-objective design optimization of cooling turbine blade is studied using Kriging model. The optimization model is created, with the diameter of pin fin at the trailing edge of cooling turbine blade and the location, width, height of rib as design variable, the blade body temperature, flow resistance loss and aerodynamic efficiency as optimization object. The sample points are selected using Latin hypercube sampling technique, and the approximate model is created using Kriging method, the set of Pareto-optimal solutions of optimization objects is obtained by the multi-object optimization model using elitist non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-Ⅱ) based on the approximate model. The result shows that the conflict among all optimization objects is solved effectively and the feasibility of the optimization method is improved.

In the robust design, correlations of uncertain parameters exist widely and have an influence on the results in most cases. It is essential to develop a robust design optimization method considering parametric correlation to future improve the analysis accuracy and engineering applicability. In this paper, a robust design optimization method based on multidimensional parallelepiped convex model is presented. Considering the effects of the interval uncertainties and their correlations, a robust design optimization model considering correlated intervals is established. In the established model, the average performance and robustness of the system response of concern are taken as the design optimization objectives, and the correlations among interval parameters are quantified by integrating the multidimensional parallelepiped convex model. And then, through an independence transforming procedure it can be converted into an independent interval model, which is ultimately converted into a deterministic multi-objective optimization model by using the interval possibility degree to cope with the uncertain constraints. Finally, the deterministic multi-objective optimization model is treated by coupling an efficient micro multi-objective genetic algorithm with the first order Taylor expansion. The feasibility and practicability of the proposed method are demonstrated by the numerical and engineering examples.

The kriging optimization method that can only obtain one sampling point per cycle has encountered a bottleneck in practical engineering applications. How to find a suitable optimization method to generate multiple sampling points at a time while improving the accuracy of convergence and reducing the number of expensive evaluations has been a wide concern. For this reason, a kriging-assisted multi-objective constrained global optimization (KMCGO) method has been proposed. The sample data obtained from the expensive function evaluation is first used to construct or update the kriging model in each cycle. Then, kriging-based estimated target, RMSE (root mean square error), and feasibility probability are used to form three objectives, which are optimized to generate the Pareto frontier set through multi-objective optimization. Finally, the sample data from the Pareto frontier set is further screened to obtain more promising and valuable sampling points. The test results of five benchmark functions, four design problems, and a fuel economy simulation optimization prove the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Based on the study of SAE J1980-2008 and FMVSS 208, MADYMO7.1 is used to establish a Multi-body and FE model for two OOP children, and the statistic test is implemented to verify the accuracy of the model. The airbag parameters impacting OOP children greatly and their ranges are selected to determine the objective function. With the Latin Hypercube Sampling method, the Kring approximate model is constructed, and multi-island genetic algorithm is used in subsequently parameters optimization. The results show that the proposed optimization method can provide effective protection for 6-year-old OOP children.

The working parameters of the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuator were optimized to gain an understanding of the flow control mechanism. Experiments were conducted at a Reynolds number of 63,000 using a NACA 0015 airfoil which was fixed to the stall angle of 12 degrees. The two objective functions are: 1) power consumption (P) and 2) lift coefficient (Cl). The goal of the optimization is to decrease P while maximizing Cl. The design variables consist of input power parameters. The algorithm was run for 10 generations with a total population of 260 solutions. Although the number of generations and population size was limited due to experimental constraints, the algorithm was able to converge and the approximate Pareto-front was obtained. From the objective function space, we observe a relatively linear trend where Cl increases with P and after a certain threshold, the value of Cl seems to saturate. We discuss the results obtained in the objective space in addition to scatter plot matrix and color maps. This article, with its experiment-based approach, demonstrates the robustness of a Multi-Objective Design Optimization method and its feasibility for wind tunnel experiments.

Vehicle delay and stops at intersections are considered targets for optimizing signal timing for an isolated intersection to overcome the limitations of the linear combination and single objective optimization method. A multi-objective optimization model of a fixed-time signal control parameter of unsaturated intersections is proposed under the constraint of the saturation level of approach and signal time range. The signal cycle and green time length of each phase were considered decision variables, and a non-dominated sorting artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm was used to solve the multi-objective optimization model. A typical intersection in Lanzhou City was used for the case study. Experimental results showed that a single-objective optimization method degrades other objectives when the optimized objective reaches an optimal value. Moreover, a reasonable balance of vehicle delay and stops must be achieved to flexibly adjust the signal cycle in a reasonable range. The convergence is better in the non-dominated sorting ABC algorithm than in non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II, Webster timing, and weighted combination methods. The proposed algorithm can solve the Pareto front of a multi-objective problem, thereby improving the vehicle delay and stops simultaneously.

Disassembly is an indispensable part in remanufacturing process. Disassembly line balancing and disassembly mode have direct effects on the disassembly efficiency and resource utilization. Recent researches about disassembly line balancing problem (DLBP) either considered the highest productivity, lowest disassembly cost or some other performance measures. No one has considered these metrics comprehensively. In practical production, ignoring the ratio of resource input and value output within remanufacturing oriented disassembly can result in inefficient or pointless remanufacturing operations. To address the problem, a novel multi-efficiency DLBP optimization method is proposed. Different from the conventional DLBP, destructive disassembly mode is considered not only on un-detachable parts, but also on detachable parts with low value, high energy consumption, and long task time. The time efficiency, energy efficiency, and value efficiency are newly defined as the ultimate optimization objectives. For the characteristics of the multi-objective optimization model, a dual-population discrete artificial bee colony algorithm is proposed. The proposed model and algorithm are validated by different scales examples and applied to an automotive engine disassembly line. The results show that the proposed model is more efficient, and the algorithm is well suited to the multi-objective optimization model.

A preliminary design optimization approach of axial flow compressors is developed. Loss correlations associated with airfoil geometry are introduced to relax the stringent requirement for the designer to prescribe the stage efficiency. In face of the preliminary design complexity resulted from the large number of design variables together with their stringent variation ranges and multiple design goals, the multi-objective optimization algorithm is incorporated. With such a developed preliminary design optimization method, the design space can be then explored extensively and the optimum designs of both high level overall efficiency and wide stall margin can be readily achieved. The preliminary design optimization method is validated in two steps. Firstly, an existing 5-stage compressor is redesigned without optimization. The obtained geometries and flow parameters are compared to the existing data and a good consistency is achieved. Then, the redesigned compressor is used as initial design and optimized by the developed multi-objective preliminary design optimization method, and significant performance gains are obtained, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the developed optimization methods.
