This review presents when and how Genetic Algorithms (GAs) have been used over the last
15 years in the field of heat transfer. GAs are an optimization tool based on Darwinian …

Chemical reactors are employed to produce several materials, which are utilized in
numerous applications. The wide use of these chemical engineering units shows their …

Two test problems on multiobjective optimization (one simple general problem and the
second one on an engineering application of cantilever design problem) are solved using …

Optimization is the process of finding and comparing feasible solutions and adopting the
best one until no better solution can be found. Because solving real-world problems often …

In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed for solving multiobjective optimization problems.
The proposed algorithm, multiobjective differential evolution (MODE), is applied to optimize …

Nature is continuously evolving itself by the different mechanisms so that every aspect of it
becomes optimized for different objectives around it. Evolutionary algorithms are developed …

This paper presents a comparative study of two artificial intelligence based hybrid process
modeling and optimization strategies, namely ANN-GA and SVR-GA, for modeling and …

Abstract The three-dimensional (3D) fluid flow and heat transfer analysis and geometric
optimization of two rows circular and elliptic wavy fin and tube heat exchanger (FTHE) are …

We propose a decision-making framework to compute compromise solutions that balance
conflicting priorities of multiple stakeholders on multiple objectives. In our setting, we shape …

Analysis and evaluation of land use patterns are of prime importance for natural resources
management. Recent studies on land use allocation have been mainly based on linear …
