In order to determine the parameters of a stress relaxation model based on Altenbach-Gorash-Naumenko creep equations, an efficient parameter identification scheme is discussed. The differential evolution (DE) algorithm is used in the identification procedure with a modified forward-Euler scheme. The model parameters of 1Cr-0.5Mo-0.25V stainless steel bolting material at 500°C have been determined, and the creep and stress relaxation behaviors have been calculated. Comparing with a step-by-step model parameter determination technology and the genetic algorithm (GA), it shows that the DE algorithm has better convergence property and suitability for parallelization, and no need of initial guesses close to the solution. Results indicate that the optimum solutions can be obtained more easily by DE algorithm than others.

A robust and efficient parameter identification method of the stress relaxation model based on Altenbach-Gorash-Naumenko creep equations is discussed. The differential evolution (DE) algorithm with a modified forward-Euler scheme is used in the identification procedure. Besides its good convergence properties and suitability for parallelization, initial guesses close to the solutions are not required for the DE algorithm. The parameter determination problem of the stress relaxation model is based on a very broad range specified for each parameter. The performance of the proposed DE algorithm is compared with a step-by-step model parameter determination technology and the genetic algorithm (GA). The model parameters of 12Cr-1Mo-1W-1/4V stainless steel bolting material at 550°C have been determined, and the creep and stress relaxation behaviors have been calculated. Results indicate that the optimum solutions can be obtained more easily by DE algorithm than others.

Sensitivity analysis is the first step in elucidating how the uncertainties in model parameters affect the uncertainty in model outputs. Calibration of dynamic models is another issue of considerable interest, which is usually carried out by optimizing an objective function. The first aim of this research was to perform a global sensitivity analysis (GSA) with Sobol’s method for the 16 parameters of the new HORTSYST nonlinear model that simulates photo–thermal time (PTI), daily dry matter production DMP, nitrogen uptake (Nup), leaf area index (LAI), and crop transpiration (ETc). The second objective was to carry out the calibration of the HORTSYST model by applying a differential evolution (DE) algorithm as the global optimization method. Two tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) crops were established during the autumn–winter and spring–summer seasons under greenhouse and soilless culture conditions. Plants were distributed with a density of 3.5 plants m−2. Air temperature and relative humidity were measured with an S-THB-M008 model sensor. Global solar radiation was measured with an S-LIB-M003 sensor connected to a U-30-NRC datalogger. In the sensitivity analysis run in the two growth stages, it was observed that a greater number of parameters were more important at the beginning of fructification than at the end of crop growth for 10% and 20% of the variation of the parameters. The sensitivity analysis came up with nine parameters (RUE, a, b, c1 , c2, A, Bd, Bn, and PTIini) as the most important of the HORTSYST model, which were included in the calibration process with the DE algorithm. The best fit, according to RMSE, was for LAI, followed by Nup, DMP, and ETc for both crop seasons; the RMSE was close to zero, indicating a good prediction of the model’s performance.

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.

In order to improve the accuracy of rice transplanter model parameters, an online parameter identification algorithm for the rice transplanter model based on improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) algorithm and extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm was proposed. The dynamic model of the rice transplanter was established to determine the model parameters of the rice transplanter. Aiming at the problem that the noise matrices in EKF algorithm were difficult to select and affected the best filtering effect, the proposed algorithm used the IPSO algorithm to optimize the noise matrices of the EKF algorithm in offline state. According to the actual vehicle tests, the IPSO-EKF was used to identify the cornering stiffness of the front and rear tires online, and the identified cornering stiffness value was substituted into the model to calculate the output data and was compared with the measured data. The simulation results showed that the accuracy of parameter identification for the rice transplanter model based on the IPSO-EKF algorithm was improved, and established an accurate rice transplanter model.
