Optimum Design of Power Screw Efficiency by Fuzzy Simplex Search Algorithm

퍼지 simplex search 알고리듬을 이용한 동력 스크류 효율의 최적설계

The Nelder-Mead simplex algorithm has been one of the most widely used methods for the nonlinear unconstrained optimization, since 1965. Recently, the new algorithm, (so-called the Fuzzy Simplex Algorithm), with fuzzy logic controllers for the expansion, reflection and contraction process of this algorithm has been proposed. In this paper, this new algorithm is developed. And, the formulation for the optimum design of the power screw's efficiency is made. And then, the developed fuzzy simplex algorithm as well as the original one is applied to this optimum design problem. The Fuzzy simplex algorithm results in a faster convergence in this problem, as reported in other study, too.
