Evolutionary Optimization in MPS: A Brief Review
Abstract: Master production scheduling (MPS) is a combinatorial optimization problem that arises frequently in real-life applications. Because of the complexity and the vast search space, conventional optimization methods such as mathematical programming, dynamic programming and branch-and-bound technique are computationally infeasible. Evolutionary approach-based meta-heuristics have gained prominence in recent years for solving multi-objective optimization problems (MOP). Multi-objective evolutionary approaches (MOEAs) have substantial success across a variety of real-world engineering applications. The present …

Mechanism of Intensive Gas and Fluid Mixture in the Process of Vibroturbulization and Its Technological Applications
Abstract: Previously conducted experimental studies have established that in a certain narrow frequency range and upon reaching a certain value of the amplitude of water oscillations in a sealed vessel with above-water air shell, subjected to vertical vibration, a resonant phenomenon occurs, called “vibroturbulization”, leading to intensive mixing of media of different density. The studies carried out were purely experimental in nature and could not reveal the physicochemical mechanism of occurrence, …

Dynamic Approach to Evaluate Costing through Software with Integration of CAD/CAM
Abstract: This paper provides the approach to evaluate costing of a model through the use of CAD/CAM integration with establishing rules and scripting. Costing includes the direct and indirect cost of the product. The earlier process of cost estimation was laborious for engineers and it takes long time to evaluate the cost of a finished product. This methodology provides the knowledge to integrate software technology with production knowledge by establishing the …
