optimization of structures for minimum weight has become important in the recent designs. in this study, a genetic optimization algorithm for weight minimization of steel frames has been used. the genetic algorithm is an optimization and search technique based on the principles of genetics and natural selection. constraints regarding material strength and serviceability are taken from “aisc cod...

plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (phev) technology shows great interest in the recent scientificliteratures. vehicle-to-grid (v2g) is a interconnection of energy storage of phevs and grid. byimplementation of v2g dependencies of the power system on small expensive conventional units canbe reduced, resulting in reduced operational cost. this paper represents an intelligent unitcommitment (uc) wi...

This paper gives an overview of how to predict the intensity of the shot peening process using currently available technology. Methodology, tools, and software are also discussed. Real life examples are presented in the areas of optimization, troubleshooting, and process modeling.

How should we design experiments to maximize performance of a complexsystem, taking into account uncontrollable environmental conditions? Howshould we select relevant documents (ads) to display, given information about theuser? These tasks can be formalized as contextual bandit problems, where at eachround, we receive context (about the experimental conditions, the query), and<l...

arguably, the natural gas transmission pipeline infrastructure in iran represents one of the largest andmost complex mechanical systems in the world. the optimization of large gas trunk lines known asigat results in reduced fuel consumption or higher capability and improves pipeline operation. in thecurrent study, a single-objective optimization was conducted for khormoj compressor station on t...

superconducting materials are capable of trapping extremely high magnetic fields. this property and meissner effect of superconductors causes a levitation force between bulk superconductors and a permanent magnet (pm). this levitation force has possible industrial applications such as permanent magnet guideways (pmg). because of the high price of permanent magnets, the optimization of pmg desig...

efforts to improve the quality of bakery products are increasing every day. several techniques were developed for this purpose. in this study the possibility of betterment and optimization of quality properties of dough and barbari bread with emphasis on process variables using rotatable response surface methodology were investigated. the independent process variables for baking process were do...
