For solving non-linear programming problems containing discrete and continuous variables, this article suggests two modified algorithms based on differentialevolution (DE). The two proposed algorithms incorporate a novel random search strategy into DE/best/1 and DE/cur-to-best/1 respectively. Inspired by the artificial bee colony algorithm, the random search strategy overcomes the searching unbalance of DE/best/1 and DE/cur-to-best/1 by enhancing the global exploration capability of promising individuals. Two numerical experiments are given to test the two modified algorithms. Experiment 1 is conducted on the benchmark function set of CEC2005 in order to verify the effectiveness of the improved strategy. Experiment 2 is designed to optimize two mixed discrete-continuous problems to illustrate the competitiveness and the practicality of the proposed algorithms. In particular, the modified DE/cur-to-best/1 finds the new optima of two engineering optimization problems.

The parameter establishment of differential evolution algorithm (DE) is generally determined by the experience selection method, whose shortcomings include the massive operational parameters, the difficulty in obtaining the best parameter combination, and further obstacle to improve the optimization ability of the algorithm to a great extent. The article introduces the uniform design method of differential evolution algorithm in parameter establishment. The optimal parameters combination which can be applied to different types of standard test functions is discovered by means of the uniform design test for three different types of standard test function: the unimodal function, multimodal function, and morbid function. Finally the differentialevolutionary algorithm for parameter establishment can be specified. The result is as follows. When the two groups of optimal parameter combination obtained by the uniform design experiment are applied to the differentialevolution, the average global optimal solution is 3.3597 and the average standard deviation is 6.1243. It follows that the method of uniform experimental design is feasible and effective to set the parameters of the differential evolution algorithm and the method offers good stability.

Considering that the model of the p-Xylene (PX) oxidation reaction process is a hybrid and highly nonlinear model, a differential evolution algorithm with self-adaptive mutation strategy and control parameters (SSCPDE) was proposed to optimize the operating conditions. In SSCPDE, each individual has its own control parameters and mutation strategies that can be self-adaptively adjusted to different evolution phases and various optimization problems. SSCPDE was compared with 6 state-of-the-art DE variants by 38 different types of benchmark functions. Simulation results show that the average performance of SSCPDE is better than the six famous self-adaptive DE algorithms. Finally, the SSCPDE algorithm was used to optimize the five main operating conditions of the PX oxidation reaction process. Optimization results indicate that the production cost, loss of acetic acid and PX combustion of the PX oxidation reaction process are greatly reduced and that SSCPDE performs better than JADE, EPSDE, SaDE, and the optimizer of Aspen Plus and similar to jDE and CoDE.

The function of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) is to regulate the output power of the corresponding generator in response to changes in system frequency or tie line loading or in both cases within a prescribed limit. In this paper differentialevolution (DE) based Proportional-Integral (PI) controller is designed and simulated to observe its performance for a two area Hydro-Thermal power system. The purpose of the DE is to find out the optimal parameter values of the PI controller (K-p and K-i). The Optimal set of values is chosen based on eigenvalue of system matrix and objective function. The performance was evaluated based on the transient response (Settling time and peak overshoot) of the system while different step load changes were applied on both or either of the areas. The proposed controller has been found functioning properly for not only smaller (1%) but also larger (5%) load disturbances. All the simulations are done using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.

The problem of requirements change in product configuring design is discussed, and the concept of generalized requirements change is put forward. The influence factors of module partition are mapped by analyzing the generalized requirements change. The method of "two times aggregation" is proposed to partition the product, and the product is divided into sub-function mechanisms according to the connection relationships between components. Correlation matrix is established based on the generalized requirements change, and the change degree of the components is proposed, representing the frequencies of the change. Multi-objective optimization model is established to solve the problem of module partition. Multi-objective differential evolution algorithm is used to solve the model, and it is improved by introducing the life span of candidate solutions and the strategy of multi-population. In the end, application example of KUKA robot products' module partition is given. Compared to other optimization algorithms, this method showed some superiority.

In this paper, non-uniformly spaced planar antenna arrays (NUSPAA) of different geometry with uniform excitation is considered for minimization of maximum side lobe level (SLL). Configuring different planar array geometries only by switching off some elements from the basic rectangular array, the inter-element positions of the remaining elements are optimized using differentialevolution (DE) algorithm. The proposed method can effectively reduce the number of antenna elements with reduction in SLL using the simple feed network of uniformly excited antenna array (UEAA). The MATLABTM simulated result of optimized SLL considering different geometries of a 17 x 17 array is presented and compared to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

This article proposes a differential evolution algorithm (DE) for solving type 1 simple assembly line balancing problem (SALBP-1). The proposed heuristic composes of four main steps: (1) initialization, (2) mutation, (3) recombination, and (4) selection process. A new decoding scheme is proposed along with new recombination formulas besides those found in literatures. The computational results based on many tests using set of standard instances show that the proposed DE algorithm is very competitive for solving SALPB-1.

For solving numerical integral problems, a composite Simpson method based on differential evolution algorithm (SDE) is proposed. The proposed method can be viewed as a piecewise integration method. It firstly uses the differential evolution algorithm (DE) to find the optimal segmentation points on the integral interval of an integrand. The approximate integral value of the integrand is then calculated by a composite Simpson method. The comparative analyses of numerical experiment results show the advantages of S-DE on a class of integral problems.
