In present study, a three-step multi-objective optimization algorithm of cyclone separators is catered for the design objectives. First, the pressure drop (Dp) and collection efficiency (h) in a set of cyclone separators are numerically evaluated. Secondly, two meta models based on the evolved Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) type neural networks are regarded to model the Dp and h as the re...

one of the most important applications of multi-objective optimization is adjusting parameters ofpractical engineering problems in order to produce a more desirable outcome. in this paper, the decoupled sliding mode control technique (dsmc) is employed to stabilize an inverted pendulum which is a classic example of inherently unstable systems. furthermore, a new multi-objective particle swarm o...

this paper proposes a method to solve multi-objective problems using improved particle swarm optimization. we propose leader particles which guide other particles inside the problem domain. two techniques are suggested for selection and deletion of such particles to improve the optimal solutions. the first one is based on the mean of the m optimal particles and the second one is based on appoin...
