abstract

in this paper, a method based on binary-coded genetic algorithm is proposed to explore an optimization method, for obtaining an optimal elliptical tank. this optimization method enhances the rollover threshold of a tank vehicle, especially under partial filling conditions. minimizing the overturning moment imposed on the vehicle due to c.g. height of the liquid load, lateral acceleration and cargo load shift are properly applied. in the process, the width and height of tanker are assumed as constant parameters. additionally, considering the constant cross-sectional area, an optimum elliptical tanker of each filling condition is presented to provide more roll stability. moreover, the magnitudes of lateral and vertical translation of the cargo within the proposed optimal cross section under a constant lateral acceleration field are compared with those of conventional elliptical tank to demonstrate the performance potentials of the optimal shapes. comparing the vehicle rollover threshold of proposed optimal tank with that of currently used elliptical and circular tank reveals that the optimal tank is improved approximately 18% higher than conventional one.

Using Fuzzy Cognitive Maps for Prediction of Knowledge Worker Productivity Based on Real Coded Genetic Algorithm

  Improving knowledge worker productivity has been one of the most important tasks of the century. However, we have few measures or management interventions to make such improvement possible, and it is difficult to identify patterns that should be followed by knowledge workers because systems and processes in an organization are often regarded as a death blow to creativity. In this paper, we se...

An Algorithm: Seismic Travel Time Tomographic Inversion using Real Coded and Binary Coded Genetic Algorithm

Seismic imaging, popularly known as tomography, borrowing the term from medical sciences, produces the raster image of the internal structure by combining information from a set of projections obtained at different viewing angles. To engineer high resolution and accurate solutions to mining problems, seismic traveltime tomography can yield a high resolution image of the subsurface to provide in...

A Local Genetic Algorithm for Binary-Coded Problems

Local Genetic Algorithms are search procedures designed in order to provide an effective local search. Several Genetic Algorithm models have recently been presented with this aim. In this paper we present a new Binary-coded Local Genetic Algorithm based on a Steady-State Genetic Algorithm with a crowding replacement method. We have compared a Multi-Start Local Search based on the Binary-Coded L...
