Estimation Using Differential Evolution for Optimal Crop Plan

چکیده
This paper presents an application of Differential Evolution (DE) to determine optimal crop plan for command area of Pamba-Achankovil-Vaippar (PAV) link project, so as to maximize the net irrigation benefit. The mathematical model of the problem is linear in nature subject to various constraints due to availability of total land area, water, fertilizers, seeds and manure, etc. Numerical results show that DE gives a better performance in comparison to the usual software tools used for solving such problems.

متن کاملPareto Optimal Multi-Objective Dynamical Balancing of a Slider-Crank Mechanism Using Differential Evolution Algorithm
The present paper aims to improve the dynamical balancing of a slider-crank mechanism. This mechanism has been widely used in internal combustion engines, especially vehicle engines; hence, its dynamical balancing is important significantly. To have a full balance mechanism, the shaking forces and shaking moment of foundations should be eliminated completely. However, this elimination is usuall...
