The article deals with such an important selection of the elements of electronic scheme of the given configuration, when the certain requirements of technical task are satisfied and at the same time the selected optimality criteria reach the extreme value. The gives task has been solved by the method of one-criterion optimization, in particular, the method of center gravity. To formalize the given scheme we have compiled a mathematical model of optimization, which considers the requirements of technical task. The optimal design task of the presented electronic scheme was brought to the task of multi criteria optimization. The computational experiments have been resulted in the Pareto-optimal solutions, from which there was selected a compromise on that corresponds to the minimum capacity, required by the scheme. According to the optimal values of resistors, we have conducted a computerized analysis of the transient process of the given electronic scheme with the help of a computer program Electronics Workbench.

In the paper, the problem of choosing a single final design solution among a large set of Pareto-optimal solutions is addressed. Two methods, the k-optimality approach and the more general k-ε-optimality method will be introduced. These two methods theoretically justify and mathematically define the designer’s tendency to choose solutions which are “in the middle” of the Pareto-optimal set. These two methods have been applied to the solution of a relatively simple engineering problem, i.e. the selection of the stiffness and damping of a passively suspended vehicle in order to get the best compromise between discomfort, road holding and working space. The final design solution, found by means of the k-ε-optimality approach seems consistent with the solution selected by skilled suspensions specialists. Finally the k-optimality method has proved to be very effective also when applied to complex engineering problems. The optimization of the tyre/suspension system of a sports car has been formulated as a design problem with 18 objective functions. A large set of Pareto-optimal solutions have been computed. Again, the k-optimality approach has proved to be a useful tool for the selection of a fully satisfactory final design solution.

The new type of shrouded wind turbine called “wind-lens turbine” has been developed. The wind-lens turbine has a brimmed diffuser called “wind-lens”, by which the wind concentration on the turbine blade and the significant enhancement of the turbine output can be achieved. A simultaneous optimization method for the aerodynamic design of rotor blade and wind-lens has been developed. The present optimal design method is based on a genetic algorithm (GA) which enables multi objective aerodynamic optimization. In the present study, aerodynamic performances and flow fields of the Pareto optimal solutions of wind-lens turbines designed by the present optimal design method have been investigated by wind-tunnel tests and three-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) analyses. Output power coefficients obtained from the wind-tunnel tests in the optimal wind-lens turbine exceeded the Betz limit, which is the performance limitation for bare wind turbines. The numerical results and the experimental results show that the suppression of flow separations in the diffuser is important to achieve significant improvement in aerodynamic performances. As a result, it is found that the aerodynamic performance of wind-lens turbine is significantly affected by the interrelationship between the internal and external flow fields around the wind-lens.

HyDRAS (Hyper-redundant Discrete Robotic Articulated Serpentine) is a novel serpentine robot comprising a serial chain of actuated universal joints for climbing structures such as poles or scaffoldings. To do so, it wraps its body around the structure in a helical shape, and rotates its body along its own central body axis to roll up the structure. This paper presents a method and considerations for selecting the optimal design parameters for the development of HyDRAS. The geometry equations derived in this paper will allow for a parametric approach that will aid in the selection of the appropriate design parameters such as module length, module diameter, helical pitch, and allowable range of motion for the given task of climbing pole like structures. Several examples are used to illustrate the method. The results obtained will be used in the analysis of the mechanical advantage of the mechanism and future research on the motion planning of HyDRAS.

The search of Pareto-optimal solutions for the optimal design of Low-Mobility Parallel Manipulators with Scho¨nflies motion is the subject of this paper. As a working example, a four-degree-of-freedom symmetric parallel manipulator for Scho¨nflies-motion generation is taken. In previous work, analytically found objective functions for the optimal design were used. As a consequence, some limitations were detected and new functions are required. First, a manipulator description is made, and kinematic and dynamic problems are solved. Next, an operational and dexterous workspace along with its volume is found making use of a discretization. Further, the variation of this volume with dimensional parameters is shown for purpose of optimal design. Similarly, the manipulator’s dexterity based on the Frobenius norm is found and weighted with the measure of dispersion. Then, upon a type of testing trajectory over this workspace, kinematic and dynamic results in the actuators are proposed as objective functions in multiobjective optimization.

Multi-criteria optimization problems are known to give rise to a set of Pareto optimal solutions where one solution cannot be regarded as being superior to another. It is often stated that the selection of a particular solution from this set should be based on additional criteria. In this paper a methodology has been proposed that allows a robust design to be selected from the Pareto optimal set. This methodology has been used to determine a robust geometry for a welded joint. It has been shown that the robust geometry is dependent on the variability of the geometric parameters.

In the paper, the problem of achieving Pareto optimal solutions set with application of the elaborated Multi Objectives Immune Algorithm is presented. The Pareto frontier provides a variety of compromise solutions for contradictive criteria to a decision maker. We propose the application of the selection based on the Pareto optimality to maintain solutions with great diversity in an immune memory. Stimulation and suppression mechanisms are used to control the diversity of generated solutions. Computer simulations are done for a job shop scheduling problem.

In this work, we analyze the functionality transition in the evolution process of NSGA-II and an enhanced NSGA-II with the method of controlling dominance area of solutions (CDAS) from the viewpoint of front distribution. We examine the relationship between the population of the first front consisting of non-dominated solutions and the values of two metrics, NORM and ANGLE, which measure convergence and diversity of Pareto-optimal solutions (POS), respectively. We also suggest potentials to further improve the search performance of the enhanced NSGA-II with CDAS by emphasizing the parameterS, which controls the degree of dominance by contracting or expanding the dominance area of solutions, before and after the boundary generation of functionality transition. Furthermore, we analyze the behavior of the evolution of the enhanced NSGA-II with CDAS using the best parameters combination and compare its performance with two other algorithms that enhance selection of NSGA-II.

The article presents the results of mathematical experiments with the system «Social potential of childhood in the Russian regions». In the structure of system divided into three subsystems – the «Reproduction of children in the region», «Children’s health» and «Education of children», for each defined its target factor (output parameter). The groups of infrastructure factors (education, health, culture and sport, transport), socio-economic, territorial-settlement, demographic and en-vironmental factors are designated as the factors that control the system (input parameters). The aim of the study is to build a model îf «Social potential of childhood in the Russian regions», as well as to conduct experiments to find the optimal ratio of the values of target and control factors. Three waves of experiments were conducted. The first wave is related to the analysis of the dynam-ics of indicators for 6 years. The second – with the selection of optimal values of control factors at fixed ideal values of target factors. The third wave allowed us to calculate the values of the target factors based on the selected optimal values of the control factors of the previous wave.

In this paper we consider the structural and technological process of the combine used in the process of separate harvesting of grain crops, as well as a number of its parameters. Among the main units of the combine, we allocate a conveyor and devices for removing beveled stems from under the wheels of the vehicle. The principle of operation of the conveyor at different phases of the Reaper and especially the removal of cut stems from under the wheels of the vehicle during operation of the Reaper. The results of theoretical studies on the establishment of the optimal design of the parameters of the belt conveyor are presented, the ranges of their optimal values are considered and determined. Studies on the establishment of optimal parameters of the screw divider in the Reaper, which is the main component of the device for removal of beveled stems, are presented. Taking into account the optimal design and mode of operation of the screw divider, the correct work is provided to remove the cut stems from under the wheels of the harvester.
