In this paper, a new version of multi-objective differential evolution with dynamically adaptable mutation factor is used for Pareto optimization of a 5-degree of freedom vehicle vibration model excited by non-stationary random road profile. In this way, non-dominated sorting algorithm and crowding distance criterion have been combined to differential evolution with fuzzified mutation in order ...

We study a variant of the two-phase method for general bi-objective combinatorial optimization problems. First, we analyze a basic enumerative procedure, often used in literature to solve specific bi-objective combinatorial optimization problems, making it suitable to solve general problems. We show that the procedure generates the exact set E of efficient points by solving exactly 2|E| − 1 sin...

This paper presents a way to obtain parameters of a direct-axis equivalent circuit of a synchronous generator from frequency response data using bi-objective genetic algorithms. The genetic algorithms is capable of finding a global minimum within a given search interval. The sum square error of magnitude and phase of the d-axis equivalent circuit transfer function to formulate a bi-objective op...

The optimal design of a plate-fin recuperator of a 200-kW microturbine was studied in this paper. The exergy efficiency, pressure drop and total cost were selected as the three important objective functions of the recuperator. Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II) were respectively employed for single-objective and multi-objective optimizations. By opt...
