The HVN is defined on the space of (vectorized) fixed cardinality sets of decision space vectors for a given multi-objective optimization problem (MOP) and seeks to maximize the hypervolume indicator adopting the Newton–Raphson method for deterministic numerical optimization. To extend its scope to non-convex optimization problems, the HVN method was hybridized with a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA), which resulted in a competitive solver for continuous unconstrained bi-objective optimization problems. In this paper, we extend the HVN to constrained MOPs with in principle any number of objectives. Similar to the original variant, the first- and second-order derivatives of the involved functions have to be given either analytically or numerically. We demonstrate the applicability of the extended HVN on a set of challenging benchmark problems and show that the new method can be readily applied to solve equality constraints with high precision and to some extent also inequalities. We finally use HVN as a local search engine within an MOEA and show the benefit of this hybrid method on several benchmark problems.","PeriodicalId":53224,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical & Computational Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46681705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This model is represented by a system of nine nonlinear ordinary differential equations that describe the interaction between susceptible individuals, strain-1-vaccinated individuals, strain-1-exposed individuals, strain-2-exposed individuals, strain-3-exposed individuals, strain-1-infected individuals, strain-2-infected individuals, strain-3-infected individuals, and recovered individuals. We start our analysis of this model by establishing the existence, positivity, and boundedness of all the solutions. In order to show global stability, the model has five equilibrium points: The first one stands for the disease-free equilibrium, the second stands for the strain-1 endemic equilibrium, the third one describes the strain-2 equilibrium, the fourth one represents the strain-3 equilibrium point, and the last one is called the total endemic equilibrium. We establish the global stability of each equilibrium point using some suitable Lyapunov function. This stability depends on the strain-1 reproduction number R01, the strain-2 basic reproduction number R02, and the strain-3 reproduction number R03. Numerical simulations are given to confirm our theoretical results. It is shown that in order to eradicate the infection, the basic reproduction numbers of all the strains must be less than unity.","PeriodicalId":53224,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical & Computational Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41543534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

More so, the use of image optical techniques has grown quickly over the past several decades due to the progress in the digital camera, infrared camera, and computational power. This work focuses on thermoelastic stress analysis (TSA), and its main goal was to create a computational model based on the finite element method that simulates this technique, to evaluate and quantify how the changes in material properties, including orthotropic, affect the results of the stresses obtained with TSA. The numeric simulations were performed for two samples, compact and single lap joints. when comparing the numeric model developed with previous laboratory tests, the results showed a good representation of the stress test for both samples. The created model is applicable to various materials, including fiber-reinforced composites. This work also highlights the need to perform laboratory tests using anisotropic materials to better understand the TSA potential and improve the developed models.","PeriodicalId":53224,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical & Computational Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44745148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This metaheuristic is one of the most used to solve combinatorial optimization grouping problems. Its optimization process consists of different components, although the crossover and mutation operators are the most recurrent. This article aims to highlight the impact that a well-designed operator can have on the final performance of a GGA. We present a comparative experimental study of different mutation operators for a GGA designed to solve the Parallel-Machine scheduling problem with unrelated machines and makespan minimization, which comprises scheduling a collection of jobs in a set of machines. The proposed approach is focused on identifying the strategies involved in the mutation operations and adapting them to the characteristics of the studied problem. As a result of this experimental study, knowledge of the problem-domain was gained and used to design a new mutation operator called 2-Items Reinsertion. Experimental results indicate that the state-of-the-art GGA performance considerably improves by replacing the original mutation operator with the new one, achieving better results, with an improvement rate of 52%.","PeriodicalId":53224,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical & Computational Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45157036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a multi-stacked DRA has been proposed. The performance and characteristic features of the DRA have been analyzed by deriving the mathematical formulations for dynamic impedance, input impedance, admittance, bandwidth, and quality factor for fundamental and high-order resonant modes. Specifically, the performance of the projected multi-stacked DRA was analyzed in MATLAB and a high-frequency structure simulator (HFSS). Generally, results indicate that variation in the permittivity of substrates, such as high and low, can potentially increase and decrease the quality factor, respectively. In particular, the impedance, radiation fields and power flow have been demonstrated using the proposed multi-stacked electrical network of R, L, and C components coupled with a suitable transformer. Overall, the proposed multi-stacked DRA network shows an improved quality factor and selectivity, and bandwidth is reduced reasonably. The multi-stacked DRA network would find useful applications in radio frequency wireless communication systems. Additionally, for enhancing the impedance, BW of DRA a multi-stacked DRA is proposed by the use of ground-plane techniques with slots, dual-segment, and stacked DRA. The performance of multi-stacked DRA is improved by a factor of 10% as compared to existing models in terms of better flexibility, moderate gain, compact size, bandwidth, quality factor, resonant frequency, frequency impedance at the resonance frequency, and the radiation pattern with Terahertz frequency range.","PeriodicalId":53224,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical & Computational Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43615834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The perturbation approach and the generalised dispersion model is used to solve the governing equation of momentum and mass transfer. The dispersion coefficient increases with dimensionless time. It aids in grasping the level of nutritional transport to the synovial joint. Low-molecular-weight solutes have a lower concentration distribution at the same depth in articular cartilage than high-molecular-weight solutes. Thus, diffusion dominates nutrition transport for low-molecular-weight solutes, whereas a mechanical pumping action dominates nutrition transport for high-molecular-weight solutes. The report says that the cells in the centre of the cartilage surface receive more nutrients during imbibition and exudation than the cells on the periphery, and the earliest indications of cartilage degradation emerge in the uninflected regions. As a result, cartilage nutrition is considered necessary to joint mobility. It also predicts that, as the viscoelastic parameter increases, the concentration in the articular cartilage diminishes, resulting in the cartilage cells receiving less nutrition, which might lead to harmful effects. The dispersion coefficient and mean concentration for distinct factors, such as the Hartmann number, porous parameter, and viscoelastic parameters of gel formation, have been computed and illustrated through graphics.","PeriodicalId":53224,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical & Computational Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45525633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
