Melting efficiency which indicates how much of the heat deposited by the welding operation is used to produce melting is one of the most important parameters considered in Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding when assessing the performance of welds. In the field of welding, a good melting efficiency results in the development of a dense weld pool. This study is conducted to optimize and predict the melting efficiency of mild steel weldment, using Genetic Algorithm. Genetic Algorithm (GA), which is an optimization method that mimics the evolution process and operates on the basis of the theory of natural selection and evolution was used to analyse the results. The result shows that a combination of current 239.03A, voltage 29.87V, welding speed 56.59mm/s, welding time 79.15 sec, feed rate 130mm/s, will produce optimal melting efficiency of 44.72. Keywords: Melting Efficiency, Mild Steel Weldment, Genetic Algorithm, Optimization and Prediction.

Main objective of this study is to develop hybrid optimization method for reducing investment portfolio risk. The methods selected in this study are the combination of Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT) and genetic algorithm optimization approach. Three stocks from Malaysian Stock Exchange are selected in developing the investment portfolio namely Malayan Banking Berhad, Hap Seng Consolidated Berhad and Top Glove Corporation Berhad. Result indicates the modern portfolio theory can give optimal portfolio weightage with maximum return for tolerate level of investment risk. In addition, genetic algorithm enhanced the optimal searching method to find global minimum of investment risk. Result shows the minimum portfolio risk in objective function is 2.122118 with implementation genetic algorithm optimization. The optimal combination of portfolio investment is 32.24 % in asset A (Malayan Banking Berhad), 52.37 % in asset B (Hap Seng Consolidated Berhad), and 15.30 % in asset C (Top Gove Corporation Berhad). The important of this study is it will assist investor in making better decision to optimize their return for given level of investment risk. Furthermore, this hybrid method provides a better accuracy of prediction for return of investment and portfolio risk.

Truss optimization has the goal of achieving savings in costs and material while maintaining structural characteristics. In this research a 10 bar truss was structurally optimized in Rhino 6 using genetic algorithm optimization method. Results from previous research where sizing optimization was limited to using only three different cross-sections were compared to a sizing and shape optimization model which uses only those three cross-sections. Significant savings in mass have been found when using this approach. An analysis was conducted of the necessary bill of materials for these solutions. This research indicates practical effects which optimization can achieve in truss design.

In steelmaking plant, the process times of machines change frequently and randomly for the reason of metallurgical principle. When those change happen, the plant scheduling and caster operation must respond to keep the optimal performance profile of plant. Therefore, the integration of plant scheduling and caster operation is a crucial task. This paper presents a mixed-integer programming model and a hybrid optimized algorithm for caster operation and plant scheduling, which combine the genetic algorithm optimization and CDFM process status verification. Data experiments illustrate the efficiency of our model and algorithm.

In order to optimize the dimension of a manipulator, the optimization requirements are analyzed. Then the mathematical model and optimization objectives are established. Next, the lengths of the manipulator are optimized by Matlab genetic algorithm optimization toolbox. The structural strength and bearing installation space are considered at the same time. The trajectory and transmission angle are compared. Finally, the lengths which meet the use requirements are obtained. This optimization method provides a reference for similar mechanism.

 Acute Myeloid Leukimia (AML) is a type of cancer which attacks white blood cells from myeloid. AML subtypes M1, M2, and M3 are affected by the same type of cells called myeloblasts, so it needs more detailed analysis to classify.Momentum Backpropagation  is used to classified. In its application, optimal selection of architecture, learning rate, and momentum is still done by random trial. This is one of the disadvantage of Momentum Backpropagation. This study uses a genetic algorithm (GA) as an optimization method to get the best architecture, learning rate, and momentum of artificial neural network. Genetic algorithms are one of the optimization techniques that emulate the process of biological evolution.The dataset used in this study is numerical feature data resulting from the segmentation of white blood cell images taken from previous studies which has been done by Nurcahya Pradana Taufik Prakisya. Based on these data, an evaluation of the Momentum Backpropagation process was conducted the selection parameter in a random trial with the genetic algorithm. Furthermore, the comparison of accuracy values was carried out as an alternative to the ANN learning method that was able to provide more accurate values with the data used in this study.The results showed that training and testing with genetic algorithm optimization of ANN parameters resulted in an average memorization accuracy of 83.38% and validation accuracy of 94.3%. Whereas in other ways, training and testing with momentum backpropagation random trial resulted in an average memorization accuracy of 76.09% and validation accuracy of 88.22%.

This paper considers optimal synthesis of a special type of four-bar linkages. Combination of this optimal four-bar linkage with on of it's cognates and elimination of two redundant cognates will result in a Watt's six-bar mechanism, which generates straight and parallel motion. This mechanism can be utilized for legged machines. The advantage of this mechanism is that the leg remains straight during it's contact period and because of it's parallel motion, the legs can be as wide as desired to increase contact area and decrease the number of legs required to keep body's stability statically and dynamically. “Genetic algorithm” optimization method is used to find optimal lengths. It is especially useful for problems like the coupler curve equation which are completely nonlinear or extremely difficult to solve.
