Optimization of the main parts of hydroelectric sets using hybrid genetic algorithm

چکیده
This paper presents hybrid genetic algorithms to optimize the structure of the main parts of hydroelectric sets based on the ®nite element method. Firstly, the optimal model of the main parts of hydroelectric sets is established including an objective function and some constraint conditions. Afterwards, the stochastic direction method (SDM) and a genetic algorithm (GA) method are applied to solve the optimal model. Comparing the computational results of the two methods, some features of the methods are pointed out. In order to overcome the disadvantages of the above two methods, a new method, a hybrid genetic algorithm (HGA), is presented, and is used to optimize the structure of the main parts of hydroelectric sets. The computational results show the new method can obtain a global solution with a high search speed compared to the other two methods. # 2000 Published by Elsevier Science S.A.

Optimizing the database queries is one of hard research problems. Exhaustive search techniques like dynamic programming is suitable for queries with a few relations, but by increasing the number of relations in query, much use of memory and processing is needed, and the use of these methods is not suitable, so we have to use random and evolutionary methods. The use of evolutionary methods, beca...
