It is well known that the stochastic optimization problem can be regarded as one of most hard problems since, in cases, values f and its gradient are often not easily to solved, or F(∙, ξ) normally given clearly (or) distribution function P equivocal. Then an effective algorithm successfully designed used solve this interesting work. This paper designs bigger subspace algorithms for solving non...

In this paper, 2D seismic data and petrophysical logs of the Pabdeh Formation from four wells of the Mansuri oil field are utilized. ΔLog R method was used to generate a continuous TOC log from petrophysical data. The calculated TOC values by ΔLog R method, used for a multi-attribute seismic analysis. In this study, seismic inversion was performed based on neural networks algorithm and the resu...

 Numerous problems in engineering and science can be converted into optimization problems. Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is a newly developed stochastic optimization algorithm and has been widely used in many areas. However, due to the stochastic characteristics of its solution search equation, the traditional ABC algorithm often suffers from poor exploitation. Aiming at this weakness o...

this paper presents a new formulation for warehouse inventory management in a stochastic situation. the primary source of this formulation is derived from fp model, which has been proposed by fletcher and ponnambalam for reservoir management. the new proposed mathematical model is based on the first and the second moments of storage as a stochastic variable. using this model, the expected value...

Many methods have been developed for structural size and configuration optimization in which cross-sectional areas are usually assumed to be continuous. In most practical structural engineering design problems, however, the design variables are discrete. This paper proposes two efficient structural optimization methods based on the harmony search (HS) heuristic algorithm that treat both discret...
