Pareto optimization combines independent objectives by computing the Pareto front of its search space, defined as the set of all candidates for which no other candidate scores better under both objectives. This gives, in a precise sense, better information than an artificial amalgamation of different scores into a single objective, but is more costly to compute. We define a general Pareto produ...

Recently, a couple of approaches have been developed that combine multiobjective optimization with direct discretization methods to approximate trajectories of optimal control problems, resulting in restricted optimization problems of high dimension. The solution set of a multiobjective optimization problem is called the Pareto set which consists of optimal compromise solutions. A common way to...

We introduce an unconstrained multicriteria optimization problem and discuss its relation to various well-known scalar robust optimization problems with a finite uncertainty set. Specifically, we show that a unique solution of a robust optimization problem is Pareto optimal for the unconstrained optimization problem. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the set of weakly Pareto optimal solution...

Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) problems can have a unique objective or be multi-objective. In this paper, we are interested in MDO problems having at least two conflicting objectives. This characteristic ensures the existence of a set of compromise solutions called Pareto front. We treat those MDO problems like Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO) problems. Actual MOO methods suffer ...

In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to solve multi-objective optimization problems (MOOPs) through applying the trust-region (TR) method based on local search (LS) techniques; where the MOOP converting to a single objective optimization problem (SOOP) by using reference point method. In the proposed algorithm, some of the points in the search space are generated. For each point the TR al...

This paper aims to find the efficient state of hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) by simultaneous optimization of the control strategy and the power train. The power transmission employed in this vehicle is a power-split continuously variable transmission (CVT) which uses several fixed ratio mechanisms. After describing this transmission, the rules of electric assist control strategy are introduced....

In this paper, we presented a Multi-Objective Random Drift Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (MORDPSO-CD) based on RDPSO and crowding distance sorting to improve the convergence and distribution with less computation cost. MORDPSO-CD makes the most of RDPSO to approach the true Pareto optimal solutions fast. We adopt the crowding distance sorting technique to update and maintain the archive...

This study concerns numerical simulation, modeling and optimization of aerodynamic stall control using a synthetic jet actuator. Thenumerical simulation was carried out by a large-eddy simulation that employs a RNG-based model as the subgrid-scale model. The flow around a NACA0015 airfoil, including a synthetic jet located at 10 % of the chord, is studied under Reynolds number Re = 12.7 × 106 a...

Many water resources systems are characterized by multiple objectives. For multiobjective optimization, typically there can be no single optimal solution which can simultaneously satisfy all the goals, but rather a set of technologically efficient noninferior or Pareto optimal solutions exists. Generating those Pareto optimal solutions is a challenging task and often difficulties arise in using...
