    In 2015, K. Lenin et. al. [44] in their study “Modified Monkey Optimization Algorithm for Solving Optimal Reactive Power Dispatch Problem” expressed that to reduce the real power loss, modifications were required in local and global leader phase and a Modified Spider Monkey Algorithm (MMO) was introduced. Paper also upheld that MMO is more favorable for dealing with non-linear constraints. The algorithm was examined on the IEEE 30-bus system to minimize the active power loss. H. Sharma, et al.

    The Rockwell Collins Satellite Transportable Terminal (STT) is an important satellite for the signal branch that is used to make communications virtually anywhere. A suspension system needs to be put into the STT so that it will not be damaged while being loaded and transported. There are three shock systems available with different spring constants and damping coefficients. The three shock systems are called Air Coasters, Cloud Riders, and Extreme Shocks. A HMMWV was being tested when it began

    Hey Theodore, I am glad that my help has landed you an internship. I can see where you would be stuck on figuring out how to start the problem. Let’s take it one piece at a time. The first part I would like to focus on is the lim┬(r→R^- )⁡v where v=-c(r/R)^2*ln⁡(r/R). This may look a little daunting at first, but if you assign R and c a random number then you can get a simpler problem to solve first. I assigned R the value of 5 and c the value of 2 since R and c are constants for the function that

    3.5.3. Optimization of medium components for pectinase production by strain name using Plackett-Burman experimental design: The Plackett-Burman experimental design, a fractional factorial design, was used in this part of work to demonstrate the relative importance of medium components on pectinase production and growth of strain name. Seven independent variables as shown in (table 11) in eight combinations were organized according to the Plackett-Burman design matrix as in (table 12). For each variable

    Task 1 The mathematical formulation Description: To establish the model, firstly we should decide the objective function. Analyzing the problem at hand, we are supposed to balance the goals of maximizing the delivery to tumor area and minimizing the delivery to the critical area. Since we have two objectives, we should choose one as objective function, and another to be satisfied by relative constraint. Considering the real life situation, the ultimate goal is improving the health of the patient

    3 Methodology The developed optimisation routine makes use of adaptive response surface regression to use a limited initial amount of FE models to feed an optimisation routine which is specifically designed for general thermal problems where parameters linked to the general heat equation can be optimised or estimated using experimental input data. The algorithm uses a pan and zoom function to move through the design space and delivers faster predictions with fewer iterations than standard updating

    From the sources of income, it can be seen that expenses eat up 70% of total earning with savings trailing at 30%. Since expenses are tracked by budget, mechanical and unplanned purchases are eliminated. This means other than on the predetermined expenditure; no money is left for unplanned events. A particular concern is however focused on the composition of items that form the expenses. High-level prioritizing is Key in achieving spending rationality that will result in financial

    .3- K-Means Clustering Algorithm The K-means algorithm is an unsupervised clustering algorithm which partitions a set of data, usually termed dataset into a certain number of clusters. Minimization of a performance index is the primary basis of K-means Algorithm, which is defined as the sum of the squared distances from all points in a cluster domain in the cluster center. Initially K random cluster centers are chosen. Then, each sample in the sample space is assigned to a cluster based on the minimum
