Comparison of Genetic Parameters in PIGBLUP with UNE17P Parameters

چکیده

Genetic improvement is based on selecting genetically superior animals. From the phenotypic performance of an animal it is not known whether an animal is genetically superior or whether good performance is caused by favourable management or environmental effects. Genetic principles are applied in genetic evaluation programs like PIGBLUP to determine genetically superior animals which is expressed in their breeding values. Unfortunately it is not possible to determine the true breeding value of an animal and therefore breeding values have to be estimated. In a single trait model Estimated Breeding Values (EBV’s) are obtained for an animal based on its own performance and/or performance of relatives and knowledge of the heritability of a trait.

An Investigation on the Effects of Optimum Forming Parameters in Hydromechanical Deep Drawing Process Using the Genetic Algorithm

The present research work is concerned with the effects of optimum process variables in elevated temperature hydro-mechanical deep drawing of 5052 aluminum alloy. Punch-workpiece and die-workpiece friction coefficients together with the initial gap between the blank holder and matrix were considered as the process variables which, in optimization terminology, are called design parameters. Since...

Application of the Genetic Algorithm to Calculate the Interaction Parameters for Multiphase and Multicomponent Systems

A method based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) was developed to study the phase behavior of multicomponent and multiphase systems. Upon application of the GA to the thermodynamic models which are commonly used to study the VLE, VLLE and LLE phase equilibria, the physically meaningful values for the Binary Interaction Parameters (BIP) of the models were obtained. Using the method proposed in t...
