This paper presents the integration between a co-operative co-evolutionary genetic algorithm (CCGA) and four evolutionary multiobjective optimisation algorithms (EMOAs): a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA), a niched Pareto genetic algorithm (NPGA), a nondominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) and a controlled elitist nondominated sorting genetic algorithm (CNSGA). The resulting algori...

Evolutionary optimization algorithms have been used to solve multiple objective problems. However, most of these methods have focused on search a sufficient Pareto front, and no efforts are made to explore the diverse Pareto optimal solutions corresponding to a Pareto front. Note that in semi-obnoxious facility location problems, diversifying Pareto optimal solutions is important. The paper the...

Multi-objective optimization (MO) is a highly demanding research topic because many realworld optimization problems consist of contradictory criteria or objectives. Considering these competing objectives concurrently, a multi-objective optimization problem (MOP) can be formulated as finding the best possible solutions that satisfy these objectives under different tradeoff situations. A family o...

A Multi-objective optimization procedure has been developed to determine some kinetic parameters of free radical polymerization of vinyl acetate based on genetic algorithm. For this purpose, mathematical modeling of free radical polymerization of vinyl acetate is carried out first and then selected kinetic parameters are optimized by minimizing objective functions defined from comparing exp...

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...

Evolutionary Algorithms are a standard tool for multi-objective optimization that are able to approximate the Pareto front in a single optimization run. However, for some selection operators, the algorithm stagnates at a certain distance from the Pareto front without convergence for further iterations. We analyze this observation for different multi-objective selection operators. We derive a si...

The performance of horizontal axis tidal current turbines (HATCT) strongly depends on their geometry. According to this fact, the optimum performance will be achieved by optimized geometry. In this research study, the multi objective optimization of the HATCT is carried out by using four different multi objective optimization algorithms and their performance is evaluated in combination with bla...
