The optimal solutions of these functions and the stress distribution on the structure are calculated and compared through an example,and their characteristics are analyzed.Finally we put forward two new objective functions,curvature and deformation energy for pipe system optimization.The calculations show that using the curvature as the objective function can reflect the case of minimal stress,and the optimization results using the deformation energy represent lesser and more uni- form stress distribution.The calculation results and process showed that the genetic algorithms can effectively implement damping design of engine pipelines and satisfy the efficient engineering design requirement.展开更多

Combined, the GA's the capability of the whole searching is, but not limited by selection of the initial parameter, with the gradient algorithm's advantage of fast searching. The proposed method requires a smaller sized initial population and lower computational complexity. Therefore, it is flexible to implement this method in the real-time systems. By using the proposed algorithm, the designer can efficiently control both main-lobe shaping and side-lobe level. Simulation results based on the spot survey data show that the algorithm proposed is efficient and feasible.展开更多

This approach avoids coding/decoding and directly works with complex numbers to simplify computing program and to speed up computation. This approach uses two crossover operators that can over-come premature convergence and the dependence of convergence on initial population. Simulation results show that this method is capable of synthesizing complex pattern shapes of planar arrays with arbitrary ge-ometry and can realize good sidelobe suppression at the same time.展开更多
