for any agency dealing with the design of the water distribution network, an economic design will be an objective. in this research, central force optimization (cfo) and differential evolution (de) algorithm were used to optimize ismail abad water distribution network. optimization of the network has been evaluated by developing an optimization model based on cfo and de algorithm in matlab and ...

this paper presents a model for constrained multiobjective optimization of mixed-cropping planning. the decision challenges that are normally faced by farmers include what to plant, when to plant, where to plant and how much to plant in order to yield maximum output. consequently, the central objective of this work is to concurrently maximize net profit, maximize crop production and minimize pl...

a modified f-expansion method to find the exact traveling wave solutions of  two-component nonlinear partial differential equations (nlpdes) is discussed. we use this method to construct many new solutions to the nonlinear whitham-broer-kaup system (1+1)-dimensional. the solutions obtained include jacobi elliptic periodic wave solutions which exactly degenerate to the soliton solutions, triangu...

A physical-mathematical approach to anomalous diffusion is based on a generalized diffusion equation containing derivatives of fractional order. In this paper, an anomalous sub-diffusion equation (ASub-DE) is considered. A new implicit numerical method (INM) and two solution techniques for improving the order of convergence of the INM for solving the ASub-DE are proposed. The stability and conv...

The radiative transfer phenomenon is modeled by an integro-differential equation known as Boltzmann equation. This equation describes mathematically the interaction of the radiation with the participating medium, i.e., a medium that may absorb, scatter and emit radiation. In this sense, this work presents a study regarding the estimation of radiative properties in a one-dimensional participatin...

This paper present a hybrid method of Newton method, Differential Evolution Algorithm (DE) and Cooperative Coevolution Algorithm (CCA). The proposed method is used to solve the optimisation problem in optimise the production of biochemical systems. The problems are maximising the biochemical systems production and simultaneously minimising the total amount of chemical reaction concentration inv...

Determining the optimal location of wells with the aid of an automated search algorithm is a significant and difficult step in the reservoir development process. It is a computationally intensive task due to the large number of simulation runs required. Therefore,the key issue to such automatic optimization is development of algorithms that can find acceptable solutions with a minimum numbe...

The self-developed finite element program on return mapping algorithm is used for the simulation of true tunnel with C++ language, while the finite element program is embedded into differential evolution algorithm to incorporate rock mechanics parameters. Applying to Line 1 of Dalian Metro, inversion parameters and true parameters are found to be close, which indicates the superiority and good ...

Up till now, the high penetration of intermittent distributed generation (DG) has posed great challenges to the planning and operation of the grid. To achieve the best balance between economic cost and acceptable capacity of DG, this paper proposes a new integrated planning method of the active distribution network while considering voltage control cost. Firstly, characteristics of decentralize...
