In this study an efficient meta-heuristic is proposed for layout optimization of truss structures by combining cellular automata (CA) and firefly algorithm (FA). In the proposed meta-heuristic, called here as cellular automata firefly algorithm (CAFA), a new equation is presented for position updating of fireflies based on the concept of CA. Two benchmark examples of truss structures are presen...

The Cellular Automata method has been used to simulate the pattern formation of the Schlögl model as a bistable Reaction-Diffusion System. Both microscopic and macroscopic Cellular Automata approaches have been considered and two different methods for obtaining the probabilities in the microscopic approach have been mentioned. The results show the tendency of the system towards the more sta...

The increasing prominence of computers has led to a new way of viewing nature as a form of computation. The Modern generation is more enthusiastic to know about the dynamical behavior of non-linear system. It is an in-depth study which is speculative and thought provoking. This paper highlights the importance of cellular Automata in short application of non-linear dynamics. Cellular Automata ha...

Objective. Development of a method for organizing the process forming flows register structure, patented by author at Department DSTU, which is cellular automaton binary sequences with controlled structure "cellular" automata in homogeneous environments. Method. To solve set system problem, model was built order to determine factors that allow changing sequence flow elements. Result. When study...

The increasing use of linear hybrid cellular automata (LHCA) in VLSI design and test and other applications for such purposes as pseudo random pattern generation has made it important for users to understand their design, use and properties. In this tutorial paper, the background for cellular automata is explained, and a recent synthesis algorithm with low complexity, which solves the problem o...

In this paper we study mixing properties of one-dimensional linear cellular automata over the ring Zm, a particular class of dynamical systems, determined by right (left) permutative local rule F with respect to the uniform Markov measure induced by doubly stochastic matrix P = p(i,j) and the probability vector π. We prove that one-dimensional linear cellular automata associated to right (resp....
