Perpendicularity error has great influence on the quality and performance of the geometrical products, and it is of great importance to guarantee the interchangeability. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is an extraordinarily useful intelligent optimization algorithm with several advantages of fast convergence rate and easy realization for computer in the multidimensional space function optimization and dynamic target optimization. As a result, it is very accurate and is accordant with the requirement of minimum zone method (MZC) using PSO to associate the base plane of perpendicularity error.

Particle swarm optimization algorithms have lots of advantages such as fast convergence speed, good quality of solution and robustness in multidimensional space function optimization and dynamic target optimization. It is suitable for structural optimization design. In this paper, manual transmission gear train of a tractor is taken as research object, the minimum quality and minimum center distance of the gear train is taken as optimization goal, the gear ratio, modulus, helix angle, tooth width and equilibrium conditions of the axial force are taken as the constraints, a multi-objective optimization model of the gear train is established. The optimal structure design programs and Pareto optimal solution are obtained by using particle swarm optimization algorithm.

The aim is to improve the convergence of the algorithm, and increase the population diversity. Adaptively particles of groups fallen into local optimum is adjusted in order to realize global optimal. by judging groups spatial location of concentration and fitness variance. At the same time, the global factors are adjusted dynamically with the action of the current particle fitness. Four typical function optimization problems are drawn into simulation experiment. The results show that the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is convergent, robust and accurate.

Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is the most important and popular algorithm to solving the engineering optimization problem due to its simple updating formulas and excellent searching capacity. This algorithm is one of evolutionary computations and is also a population-based algorithm. Traditionally, to demonstrate the convergence analysis of the PSO algorithm or its related variations, simulation results in a numerical presentation are often given. This way may be unclear or unsuitable for some particular cases. Hence, this paper will adopt the illustration styles instead of numeric simulation results to more clearly clarify the convergence behavior of the algorithm. In addition, it is well known that three parameters used in the algorithm, i.e., the inertia weight w, position constants c1 and c2, sufficiently dominate the whole searching performance. The influence of these parameter settings on the algorithm convergence will be considered and examined via a simple two-dimensional function optimization problem. All simulation results are displayed using a series of illustrations with respect to various iteration numbers. Finally, some simple rules on how to suitably assign these parameters are also suggested

It is realized that the topological structure of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has a great influence on its optimization ability. This paper presents a new dynamic small-world neighborhood PSO (D-SWPSO) algorithm whose neighbourhood structure can be constructed with any irregular initial networks. The choice of the learning exemplar is not only based upon the big clustering coefficient and the average shortest distance for a regular network, but also based upon the eigenvalues of Laplacian matrix for irregular networks. Therefore, the D-SWPSO is a PSO algorithm based on small-world topological neighbourhood with universal significance. The proposed algorithm is tested by some typical benchmark test functions, and the results confirm that there is a significant improvement over the basic PSO algorithm. Finally, the algorithm is applied to a real-world optimization problem, the economic dispatch on the IEEE30 system with wind farms. The results demonstrate that the proposed D-SWPSO is a practically feasible and effective algorithm.
