Optimization of Fabric Layout by Using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

In textile industry, marker planning is one of the main operations in the cutting fabric stage. Marker packing is usually used to maximize cloth exploitation and minimize its waste. In this research, a method is used based on new found meta-heuristic imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) and Bottom-Left-Fill Algorithm (BLF) to achieve optimal marker packing. Function of the proposed method was compared with other evolutionary algorithm based marker packing methods. The results indicate that the performance of presented method is 6.5% higher than other evolutionary marker packing methods.

Using Imperialist competitive algorithm optimization in multi-response nonlinear programming

The quality of manufactured products is characterized by many controllable quality factors. These factors should be optimized to reach high quality products. In this paper we try to find the controllable factors levels with minimum deviation from the target and with a least variation. To solve the problem a simple aggregation function is used to aggregate the multiple responses functions then a...

OPTIMIZATION TO IDENTIFY MUSKINGUM MODEL PARAMETERS USING IMPERIALIST COMPETITIVE ALGORITHM

In engineering, flood routing is an important technique necessary for the solution of a floodcontrol problem and for the satisfactory operation of a flood-prediction service. A simple conceptual model like the Muskingum model is very effective for the flood routing process. One challenge in application of the Muskingum model is that its parameters cannot be measured physically. In this article ...
