  • This paper studies a heuristic method for the Maximum Origin-Destination Flow Path (MODFP) in an acyclic transportation network. We construct a mathematical formulation for finding the MODFP. Then by applying Benders' partitioning method, we generate two subproblems which should be solved in turn so that they may give an optimal solution. We solve one subproblem by an optimal seeking algorithm and the other by a hueristic method. so that, we finally obtain a good solution. The computational complexity of calculating the optimal solution of the first subproblem is 0(mn) and that of calculating the heuristic solution of the other subproblem is $0(n^2).$ From the computational experiments, we estimated the performance of the heuristic method as being 99.3% and the computing time relative to optimal algorithm as being 28.76%.

  • This paper is presented to determine the optimal parameters of squeeze film damper using an enhanced genetic algorithm (EGA). The damper design parameters are the radius, length and radial clearance of the damper. The objective function is minimization of a transmitted load between bearing and foundation at the operating and critical speeds of a flexible rotor. The present algorithm was the synthesis of a genetic algorithm with simplex method for a local concentrate search. This hybrid algorithm is not only faster than the standard genetic algorithm, but also gives a more accurate solution and can find both the global and local optimum solution. The numerical example is presented that illustrated the effectiveness of enhanced genetic algorithm for the optimal design of the squeeze film damper for reducing transmitted load.

  • In this paper, we consider an optimal control problem of a nonlinear stochastic system. Dynamic programming approach is employed for the formulation of a stochastic optimal control problem. As an optimality condition, dynamic programming equation so called the Bellman equation is obtained, which seldom yields an analytical solution, even very difficult to solve numerically. We obtain the numerical solution of the Bellman equation using an algorithm based on the finite difference approximation and the contraction mapping method. Optimal controls are constructed through the solution process of the Bellman equation. We also construct a test case in order to investigate the actual performance of the algorithm.

  • In this paper, a new smoothing approximation to the l1 exact penalty function for constrained optimization problems (COP) is presented. It is shown that an optimal solution to the smoothing penalty optimization problem is an approximate optimal solution to the original optimization problem. Based on the smoothing penalty function, an algorithm is presented to solve COP, with its convergence under some conditions proved. Numerical examples illustrate that this algorithm is efficient in solving COP.

  • In this paper, a method for optimal measurement placement in the problem of static harmonic state estimation in power systems is proposed. At first, for achieving to a suitable method by considering the precision factor of the estimation, a procedure based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) for optimal placement is suggested. Optimal placement by regarding the precision factor has an evident solution, and the proposed method is successful in achieving the mentioned solution. But, the previous applied method, which is called the Sequential Elimination (SE) algorithm, can not achieve to the evident solution of the mentioned problem. Finally, considering both precision and economic factors together in solving the optimal placement problem, a practical method based on GA is proposed. The simulation results are shown an improvement in the precision of the estimation by using the proposed method.

  • The degree-constrained minimum spanning tree (d-MST) problem is considered NP-complete for no exact solution-yielding polynomial algorithm has been proposed to. One thus has to resort to an heuristic approximate algorithm to obtain an optimal solution to this problem. This paper therefore presents a polynomial time algorithm which obtains an intial solution to the d-MST with the help of Kruskal's algorithm and performs k-opt on the initial solution obtained so as to derive the final optimal solution. When tested on 4 graphs, the algorithm has successfully obtained the optimal solutions.

  • In this study, a hybrid method is used to search the pseudo-optimal solution for the I-dimentional nesting problem. This method is composed of the genetic algorithm for the global search and a simple heuristic one for the local search near the pseudo optimal solution. Several simulation results show that the hybrid method gives very satisfactory results.

  • The lot sizing problem(LSP) is a hard problem that classified as non-deterministic(NP)-complete because of the polynomial-time optimal solution algorithm is unknown yet. The well-known W-W algorithm can be obtain the solution within polynomial-time, but this algorithm is a very complex, therefore the heuristic approximated S-M algorithm is suggested. This paper suggests O(n) linear-time complexity algorithm that can be find not the approximated but optimal solution. This algorithm determines the lot size Xt∗ in period t to the sum of the demands of interval [t,t+k], the period t+k is determined by the holding cost will not exceed setup cost of t+k period. As a result of various experimental data, this algorithm finds the optimal solution about whole data.

  • A multi-level optimal power flow(OPF) algorithm has been evolved from a simple two stage optimal Power flow algorithm for constrained power economic dispatch control. In the proposed algorithm, we consider various constraints such as ower balance, generation capacity, transmission line capacity, transmission losses, security equality, and security inequality constraints. The proposed algorithm consists of four stages. At the first stage, we solve the aggregated problem that is the crude classical economic dispatch problem without considering transmission losses. An initial solution is obtained by the aggregation concept in which the solution satisfies the power balance equations and generation capacity constraints. Then, after load flow analysis, the transmission losses of an initial generation setting are matched by the slack bus generator that produces power with the cheapest cost. At the second stage we consider transmission losses. Formulation of the second stage becomes classical economic dispatch problem involving the transmission losses, which are distributed to all generators. Once a feasible solution is obtained from the second stage, transmission capacity and other violations are checked and corrected locally and quickly at the third stage. The fourth stage fine tunes the solution of the third stage to reach a real minimum. The proposed approach speeds up the two stage optimization method to an average gain of 2.99 for IEEE 30, 57, and 118 bus systems and EPRI Scenario systems A through D testings.
