This paper presents the application of the Partial Element Equivalent Circuit (PEEC) approach, which is a full wave electromagnetic modelling technique for conductors embedded in arbitrary dielectrics based on equivalent circuits, to the optimal design of antennas with non-uniform spacing between the array elements. The design optimization problem is solved by means of the new nature-inspired Cheetah metaheuristic. The main aim of this paper is to introduce the Cheetah optimizationalgorithm to the electromagnetics and antenna community. The results are compared to two well-known optimizationalgorithms and to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm on a realistic benchmark problem.

Techniques for soil property estimation can be categorized into two main groups, in-situ and laboratory methods. Previous investigations indicated that strong ground motions record provides a very useful tool to estimating the in-situ characteristics of soil. The main objective of the present work is to utilize the particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSOA) integrated with linear site response method to obtain the equivalent soil profile characteristics from the available surface and bedrock earthquake motion records. To demonstrate the numerical efficiency and the validity of this approach, the procedure is validated against an available case. Then this procedure is utilized to identify the soil properties profiles of the site by using strong ground motions data recorded during the Bam earthquake of December 26, 2003. The magnitude and PGA of Bam earthquake were MW 6.6 and 0.8 g respectively.

particle swarm optimization algorithm is presented for the layout of "Integrate Circuit (IC)" design. particleswarmoptimization based on swarm intelligence is a new evolutionary computational tool and is successfully applied in function optimization, neural network design, classification, pattern recognition, signal processing and robot technology and so on. A modified algorithm is presented and applied to the layout of IC design. For a given layout plane, first of all, this algorithm generates the corresponding grid group by barriers and nets' ports with the thought ofgridless net routing, establishes initialization fuzzy matrix, then utilizes the global optimization character to find out the best layout route only if it exits. The results of model simulation indicate that PSO algorithm is feasible and efficient in IC layout design.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are extensively used in numerous applications from sensing and tracking to atmospheric quantity measurement. Sensor nodes used in the network are mostly battery powered and due to odd terrain of deployment it is not always easy to replace them. For managing this battery resource of the WSNs various schemes have been proposed and implemented. In this paper we have used Moth Flame optimizationalgorithm in the clustering and routing for enhancing the lifetime of the sensor network. Outcome through this algorithm are compared with the previously used various algorithms like particleswarmoptimization, Genetic algorithm and Least Distance Clustering algorithm.

In recent years, kernel machine learning algorithm (e.g. least square support vector machine, LSSVM) is a commonly method for time series prediction, as the main unit, the type of kernel function is very crucial. In this paper, a hybrid model of variational mode decomposition (VMD), particleswarmoptimization (PSO) and LSSVM is proposed to forecast the downburst wind speed series. Linear kernel function, polynomial kernel function, radial basis function, Morlet wavelet kernel function, Mexican Hat wavelet kernel function and their combinations are selected to demonstrate the influence of different kernel functions on prediction results. The results indicate that the Morlet+RBF combined kernel function is considerably effective in enhancing the forecasting accuracy of the VMD-PSO-LSSVM model.

The paper presents a new concept of establishing the varying function parameters in order to reduce the duration of the transition processes. The optimization was conducted using particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO). The main object of the research was 1st order element with two outputs: a low-pass and a high-pass. By selecting the right values of the parameters a better operation and considerably shorter settling times were achieved. After applying multiobjective optimizationalgorithm the system could adapt to more requirements at once.

The prediction(1) of hospital operation indicators is of great significance and can provide an important basis for hospital operation and management, so as to assist managers to make decisions such as resource allocation and task planning. In order to solve this problem, a novel Holt-Winters model based on particleswarmoptimization (PSO) is proposed, aiming at the accurate prediction of hospital operating indicators. In the process of model construction, according to the characteristics of time series data of hospital operation indicators, a time decay mean square error function is constructed as an optimization function of particle swarm optimization algorithm, which enables particle swarm optimization algorithm to better fit recent historical data and grasp the characteristics of recent time series, so as to improve the prediction accuracy. An example is given to analyze the hospital operation index data of a third-class hospital from 2014 to 2017. By initializing the parameters of the model and optimizing the parameters, the improved PSO-Holt-Winters model of TDMSE-1 is established, which can accurately predict the outpatient, inpatient, emergency, discharged and surgical cases.

A lot of progress has been made in the research of point-to-point and complete coverage path planning of mobile robots, while the multi-destinations path planning is seldom reported in the literatures. Based on particleswarmoptimization and vortex search algorithms, this paper proposes a multi-destinations path planning approach, which is suited to plan a feasible, safe and optimal path between multi-destinations in complex home environment for mobile robot. Firstly, the sequence of the destinations is quickly optimized by using the particle swarm optimization algorithm. Then, the collision-free path between destinations is obtained via vortex search algorithm with its advantages of high efficiency and small computation. Finally, simulation results show that the proposed multi-destinations path planning approach has the good explorative and exploitation ability, while the path planned by proposed approach is smooth, short.

This paper studies the grap problems of two-state, in which the subsystem allows components to be mixed(i.e. the subsystem selects components from several types of heterogeneous components, and the number of selected components types >=1). Each component has a fixed reliability, weight and price, and determines the number of selected components, so that the system has the greatest reliability under the given cost and weight constraints. The coding method of the solution is that the number of elements of each type of subsystem is a variable, and the whole system is arranged in the order of subsystems to form row vectors. An iterative particle swarm optimization algorithm with fixed compression coefficient and dynamic inertia weight is constructed to solve the problem. Typical improved fyffe problems are tested, and the optimal solutions are obtained, which are consistent with the results given by the substitution constraint method. The pso algorithm presented in this paper can effectively solve the grap problem which is allowed to mix components in subsystems.

The piezoelectric ceramics is a kind of novel intelligent materials and possesses advantages of ultrafine resolution, high stiffness and fast frequency response. It is an excellent choice as an actuator to be applied widely to micro-nano positioning system. However, one of the drawbacks of the piezoelectric actuator is the obvious hysteresis nonlinearity to limit the accuracy of positioning. The present study focuses on describing the hysteresis nonlinearity between input voltage and output displacement of piezoelectric ceramics. In order to investigate the hysteresis nonlinearity of piezoelectric ceramics, a series of models are presented, such as BoucWen model, Preisach model, Krasnosel’skii-Pokrovskii model and so on. However, the main difficulty is how to select an effective method to identify the unknown parameters of these hysteresis nonlinearity models. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid optimizationalgorithm of particleswarm and bat-inspired to identify the density function of Krasnosel’skii-Pokrovskii model. The proposed hybrid optimizationalgorithm has the fast convergence of bat-inspired and the global search ability of particleswarm. During operation of the optimizationalgorithm, we divided the swarm into two different parts randomly as the initial value. One set of data is optimized by particleswarmalgorithm and find the optimal value i.e. best1, the other set of data is optimized by bat-inspired algorithm and the optimal value is best2. Then we select the bigger one between best1 and best2 i.e. Gbest as the global optimal value of the two algorithms for the next iteration *** taking advantage of the optimizationalgorithm, an objective function is defined firstly. Then the density function of Krasnosel’skii-Pokrovskii model is identified by using bat-inspired algorithm and hybrid optimizationalgorithm of particleswarm and bat-inspired respectively. The simulations show that the displacement error of identification of Kras
