Design of neuro-computing paradigms for nonlinear nanofluidic systems of MHD Jeffery–Hamel flow

© 2018 Taiwan Institute of Chemical Engineers In this paper, a neuro-heuristic technique by incorporating artificial neural network models (NNMs) optimized with sequential quadratic programming (SQP) is proposed to solve the dynamics of nanofluidics system based on magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) Jeffery–Hamel (JHF) problem involving nano-meterials. Original partial differential equations associated with MHD–JHF are transformed into third order ordinary differential equations based model. Furthermore, the transformed system has been implemented by the differential equation NNMs (DE-NNMs) which are constructed by a defined error function using log-sigmoid, radial basis and tan-sigmoid windowing kernels. The parameters of DE-NNM of nanofluidics system are optimized with SQP algorithm. To illustrate the performance of the proposed system, MHD–JHF models with base-fluid water mixed with alumina, silver and copper nanoparticles for different Hartman numbers, Reynolds numbers, angles of the channel and volume fractions with three different proposed DE-NNMs are designed to evaluate. For comparison purpose, the proposed results with reference numerical solutions of Adams solver illustrate their worth. Statistical inferences through different performance indices are given to demostrate the accuracy, stability and robustness of the stochastic solvers

Generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature and applications

A simple numerical method for constructing the optimal generalized averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas will be presented. These formulas exist in many cases in which real positive GaussKronrod formulas do not exist, and can be used as an adequate alternative in order to estimate the error of a Gaussian rule. We also investigate the conditions under which the optimal averaged Gaussian quadrature formulas and their truncated variants are internal

Hybrid Advanced Optimization Methods with Evolutionary Computation Techniques in Energy Forecasting

More accurate and precise energy demand forecasts are required when energy decisions are made in a competitive environment. Particularly in the Big Data era, forecasting models are always based on a complex function combination, and energy data are always complicated. Examples include seasonality, cyclicity, fluctuation, dynamic nonlinearity, and so on. These forecasting models have resulted in an over-reliance on the use of informal judgment and higher expenses when lacking the ability to determine data characteristics and patterns. The hybridization of optimization methods and superior evolutionary algorithms can provide important improvements via good parameter determinations in the optimization process, which is of great assistance to actions taken by energy decision-makers. This book aimed to attract researchers with an interest in the research areas described above. Specifically, it sought contributions to the development of any hybrid optimization methods (e.g., quadratic programming techniques, chaotic mapping, fuzzy inference theory, quantum computing, etc.) with advanced algorithms (e.g., genetic algorithms, ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization algorithm, etc.) that have superior capabilities over the traditional optimization approaches to overcome some embedded drawbacks, and the application of these advanced hybrid approaches to significantly improve forecasting accuracy
