Purpose: of this paper is to present the recent possibility of evolutionary optimization method application to predicting the proper welding parameters in the weld process. The objective of the welding simulation is to study the temperature generated during the welding process and to investigate residual stresses in the component after the welding. Such results give the possibility to determine...

| With the development of increasingly complex microelectroouidic devices and systems, system-level performance analysis is becoming an important aspect of design. System-level performance analysis is challenging because coupled-energy dynamics link system-level performance with component-level operation, thus necessitating a hierarchical approach to modeling and simulation. This paper presents...

In the present work, the exergy analysis and economic study of 3 different samples of threecomponent mixtures have been investigated (ESI>1, ESI≈1, and ESI<1). The feed mixture has been tested under three different compositions (low, equal, and high contents of the intermediate component). A quantitative comparison between simple and complex configurations, considering thermally coupled, thermo...

In this paper we present a simulation model coupled with a search algorithm to find the optimal initial setting of the process mean and the optimal production run (cycle length). The simulation package SIMAN/ARENA is used to simulate the considered process. One of the features of SIMAN/ARENA is that it supports Microsoft Visual Basic for Application (VBA) which is used to code the search algori...

In the context of civil air navigation, and following the proposed paradigm shift for Air Traffic Management (ATM), it has become necessary to be able to improve accuracy of Trajectory Predictors (TP). This is particularly relevant for analysis and design of Terminal Manoeuvring Areas procedures, which consist of a mixture of conventional, Continuous Climb Departures (CCD) and Continuous Descen...

This paper uses a hierarchical decomposition of decision-making, coupled to a predictive simulation model that estimat...

this paper addresses synchronizing two coupled chaotic fitzhugh–nagumo (fhn) neurons with weakly gap junction under external electrical stimulation (ees). to transmit information among coupled neurons, by generalization of the integer-order fhn equations of the coupled system into the fractional-order in frequency domain using crone approach, the behavior of each coupled neuron relies on its pa...
