This paper presents a combined model approach of Fuzzy Logic and Genetic Algorithm applied for non-linear behavioral compensation of Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR), for its improved performance (optimal variable output voltage). The optimized parametric compensation of SCR will be done by amalgamated algorithm of Fuzzy Logic Control and Genetic Algorithm. It is a shift from existing practice of Fuzzy Logic based control /compensation, as reported in the literature. In this work, a Fuzzy Logic based optimal control system has been developed for input voltage regulation of SCR, which is further optimized by Genetic Algorithm. The input voltage regulation of SCR is needed to meet the varying load current demand in various industrial applications of the device. The proposed scheme as presented in this paper leads to the optimal regulation of input voltage for SCR. The results have shown a remarkable reduction in the error which was otherwise existing in the device and its application circuit. The accuracy level at the output of the SCR after the implementation of the proposed amalgamated algorithm is ranging between 99.0 to 99.5%. It also suits the nonlinearly varying load current requirement for a given industrial system employing SCR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Since the evaluation of each individual is based on the time-consuming structural analysis, the computational efficiency of truss topology optimization using genetic algorithm is very low. The paper focuses on this challenging problem. It is observed that there are a number of duplicate individuals appearing repetitively in the evolutionary process. Therefore, an individual identification technique is introduced to avoid evaluating the duplicate individuals by the time-consuming structural analysis but by searching the evolutionary history data to save computing time, the computational complexity of this technique is deduced. The results of two truss examples verify that the technique can effectively improve the efficiency of the algorithm. Based on this identification technique, numeric experiments are implemented to study the influence of several factors, i.e., the population size, the max generation, and the scale of problems, on the proportion of duplicate individuals. Results show that the population size has a significant impact on the proportion, and that both the max generation and the scale of problems have little influence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper a new approach to optimize nuclear power plant designs based on global risk reduction are described. In design the focus is on as components quality as redundancy levels. Meanwhile in maintenance and test tasks the focus is on as scheduling tasks as human reliability. The models based on probabilistic risk analysis are used to evaluate several designs and schedules proposed by an hybrid genetic algorithm. The best alternative is chosen to minimize the economical risk of down the production or of have an accident for all reasons considered. This approach has resulted in a new methodology to assure the risk for complex industrial systems too in a global way. So, it is possible considering several aspects such as component qualities, redundancy levels, task schedules for maintenance or tests tasks, and reliability human as a whole. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In order to be successful in multi-agent electronic negotiating environments, intelligent agents should be capable of adapting their negotiation strategies and tactics so that they can achieve an agreement with optimized profit. In this paper, some findings are going to be shown in which negotiating intelligent agents in electronic commerce start negotiating using a simplified standard protocol in conjunction with a combined negotiation. Taking advantage of a new developed evolutionary algorithm, agents configure their negotiation strategies somehow they can get more profit. They can use fuzzy fairness function to behavior with fairness or without fairness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we used genetic algorithms to 1 find the solution of game theory. We proposed new method foe solving game theory and find the optimal strategy for player A or player B. We can benefit from the relationship between game theory and the linear programming to find the fitness function and tested this fitness function at different examples . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
