Abstract:

Yarn tenacity is one of the most important properties in yarn production. This paper addresses modeling of yarn tenacity as well as optimally determining the amounts of the effective inputs to produce yarn with desired tenacity. The artificial neural network is used as a suitable structure for tenacity modeling of cotton yarn with 30 Ne. As the first step for modeling, the empirical data is collected for cotton yarns. Then, the structure of the neural network is determined and its parameters are adjusted by back propagation method. The efficiency and accuracy of the neural model is measured based on percentage of error as well as coefficient determination. The obtained experimental results show that the neural model could predicate the tenacity with less than 3.5% error. Afterwards, utilizing genetic algorithms, a new method is proposed for optimal determination of input values in yarn production to reach the desired tenacity. We conducted several experiments for different ranges with various production cost functions. The proposed approach could find the best input values to reach the desired tenacity considering the production costs.

Development of a decision support system based on neural networks and a genetic algorithm

Given ever increasing information volume and complexity of engineering, social and economic systems, it has become more difficult to assess incoming data and manage such systems properly. Currently developed innovative decision support systems (DSS) aim to achieve optimum results while minimizing the risks of serious losses. The purpose of the DSS is to help the decision-maker facing the proble...

Modeling environmental indicators for land leveling, using Artificial Neural Networks and Adaptive Neuron-Fuzzy Inference System

Land leveling is one of the most important steps in soil preparation and cultivation. Although land leveling with machines requires considerable amount of energy, it delivers a suitable surface slope with minimal soil deterioration as well as damage to plants and other organisms in the soil. Notwithstanding, in recent years researchers have tried to reduce fossil fuel consumption and its delete...
