This paper presents the design optimization of axial flux surface mounted Permanent Magnet Brushless DC motor based on genetic algorithm for an electrical vehicle application. The rating of the motor calculated form vehicle dynamics is 250 W, 150 rpm. The axial flux surface mounted Permanent Magnet Brushless DC (PMBLDC) motor was designed to fit in the rim of the wheel. There are several design...

the cuckoo search algorithm is a recently developedmeta-heuristic optimization algorithm, which is suitable forsolving optimization problems. to enhance the accuracy andconvergence rate of this algorithm, an improved cuckoo searchalgorithm is proposed in this paper. normally, the parametersof the cuckoo search are kept constant. this may lead todecreasing the efficiency of the algorithm. to cop...

The fixed-charge Capacitated Multi-commodity Network Design (CMND) is a well-known problem of both practical and theoretical significance. Network design models represent a wide variety of planning and operation management issues in transportation telecommunication, logistics, production and distribution. In this paper, Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based neighborhoods are proposed for CMND pro...

The main purpose of this research is portfolio optimization in Tehran securities exchange using the black hole algorithm and the Gravitational Research algorithm. We also propose an algorithm named Hybrid Algorithm which combines the two algorithms above to cover the weaknesses of these two algorithms. Finally we compare the results with the Markowitz model and choose the optimal algorithm.<br ...

This paper introduces the optimization algorithm to improve search rate in urban path routing problems using viral infection and local search in urban environment. This algorithm operates based on two different approaches including wavelet transform and genetic algorithm. The variables proposed by driver such as degree of difficulty and difficulty traffic are of the essence in this technique. W...
