Multi-objective ant colony optimization for the twin-screw configuration problem

Description : The Twin-Screw Configuration Problem (TSCP) consists in identifying the best location of a set of available screw elements along a screw shaft. Due to its combinatorial nature, it can be seen as a sequencing problem. In addition, different conflicting objectives may have to be considered when defini...

Aesthetic design using multi-objective evolutionary algorithms

Description : The use of computational methodologies for the optimization of aesthetic parameters is not frequent mainly due to the fact that these parameters are not quantifiable and are subjective. In this work an interactive methodology based on the use of multi-objective optimization algorithms is proposed. T...

Optimization of Co-rotating twin-screw extruders using pareto local search

Description : A Pareto Local Search (PLS) algorithm was developed and applied to the screw configuration of co-rotating twin-screw extruders. This problem can be seen as a sequencing problem where a set of different screw elements are to be sequentially positioned along the screw in order to maximize the extruder...

Using multi-objective evolutionary algorithms for optimization of the cooling system in polymer injection moulding

Description : The cooling process in polymer injection moulding is of great importance as it has a direct impact on both productivity and product quality. In this paper a Multi-objective Optimization Genetic Algorithm, denoted as Reduced Pareto Set Genetic Algorithm with Elitism (RPSGAe), was applied to optimize ...
