Ranking Dairy Sires by a Linear Programming Dairy Farm Model
Dairy sires were ranked for overall merit by an average daughter's contribution to farm net profit. Biological characteristics of sires and economic factors of a dairy farm were linked by linear programming. Availability and constraints of resources were in the model. Average daughter's returns over variable costs attributable to sire proofs for several traits was the measure of sire's net meri...
متن کاملFertilization rate and embryonic survival in dairy cows in relation to transferrin and J antigen groupings of sires and dams.
Biochemical polymorphism has been widely discussed in connection with the function of many body systems (for review see Ogden, 1961). One expression of biochemical polymorphism which has been related to reproductive efficiency in cattle is the variation in serum transferrin type. Ashton (1959) considered that embryos differing in /?-globulin (transferrin) type from their dams were less compatib...
متن کاملOptimum Design Program for Shape of Arch Dams
This paper presents an applicable and practical computer program(ODPSAD) and suggests a new algorithm for geometry of concrete arch dams. In this program shape optimization of arch dams for static and dynamic loads and enhancement of its seismic behaviour is carried out. abutment excavation and dam body volumes have been considered as the objective function and in order to increase the consiste...
متن کاملOptimum Design of Arch Dams for Frequency Limitations
An efficient methodology is proposed to find optimal shape of arch dams on the basis of constrained natural frequencies. The optimization is carried out by virtual sub population (VSP) evolutionary algorithm employing real values of design variables. In order to reduce the computational cost of the optimization process, the arch dam natural frequencies are predicted by properly trained back pro...
متن کاملFinding and Proving the Optimum: Cooperative Stochastic and Deterministic Search
In this article, we introduce a global cooperative approach between an Interval Branch and Bound Algorithm and an Evolutionary Algorithm, that takes advantage of both methods to optimize a function for which an inclusion function can be expressed. The Branch and Bound algorithm deletes whole blocks of the search space whereas the Evolutionary Algorithm looks for the optimum in the remaining spa...
