چکیده

1 Abstract Pareto optimal designs are the best designs that can be produced for a given problem formulation for a given set of criteria when the criteria are not combined in any way. If the goal is to improve the performance in those criteria then it is possible to manipulate the problem formulation to achieve an improvement. The approach adopted is to encode the formulation in a genetic algorithm and to allow the formulation to evolve in the direction of improving Pareto optimal designs. A set of rules (in the form of a shape grammar), the execution of which produces a design, is encoded as the genes in a genetic algorithm. However, the rule set is allowed to evolve, not just the order of execution of rules. We present an example demonstrating both the approach and its utility in improving Pareto optimal designs.

Modeling and Multi-Objective Optimization of Stall Control on NACA0015 Airfoil with a Synthetic Jet using GMDH Type Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms

This study concerns numerical simulation, modeling and optimization of aerodynamic stall control using a synthetic jet actuator. Thenumerical simulation was carried out by a large-eddy simulation that employs a RNG-based model as the subgrid-scale model. The flow around a NACA0015 airfoil, including a synthetic jet located at 10 % of the chord, is studied under Reynolds number Re = 12.7 × 106 a...

Multi-objective Optimization of Semi-active Control of Seismically Exited Buildings Using Variable Damper and Genetic Algorithms

Semi-active fluid viscous dampers as a subset of control systems have shown their ability to reduce seismic responses of tall buildings. In this paper, multi-objective optimization of the performance of this group of dampers in reducing the seismic responses of buildings is studied using multi-objective genetic algorithms. For numerical example, two 7 and 18 stories buildings are chosen and mod...
