Item Conceptual comparison of the ecogeography-based algorithm, equilibrium algorithm, marine predators algorithm and slime mold algorithm for optimal product design(Walter De Gruyter GMBH, 2021-07-01) Patel, Vivek; Pholdee, Nantiwat; Sait, Sadiq M.; Bureerat, Sujin; Yıldız, Betül Sultan; Yıldız, Ali Rıza; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Mühendislik Fakültesi/Makina Mühendisliği.; 0000-0003-1790-6987; 0000-0002-7493-2068; AAL-9234-2020; F-7426-2011; 57094682600; 7102365439Vehicle component design is crucial for developing a vehicle prototype, as optimum parts can lead to cost reduction and performance enhancement of the vehicle system. The use of metaheuristics for vehicle component optimization has been commonplace due to several advantages: robustness and simplicity. This paper aims to demonstrate the shape design of a vehicle bracket by using a newly invented metaheuristic. The new optimizer is termed the ecogeography-based optimization algorithm (EBO). This is arguably the first vehicle design application of the new optimizer. The optimization problem is posed while EBO is implemented to solve the problem. It is found that the design results obtained from EBO are better when compared to other optimizers such as the equilibrium optimization algorithm, marine predators algorithm, slime mold algorithm.Item Qualitative and quantitative performance comparison of recent optimization algorithms for economic optimization of the heat exchangers(Springer, 2020-09-09) Patel, Vivek; Raja, Bansi; Savsani, Vimal; Yıldız, Ali Rıza; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Mühendislik Fakültesi/Otomotiv Mühendisliği.; F-7426-2011; 7102365439Solving applied problem of economic optimization is considered as a real test for the optimization algorithms. The present work explores the qualitative and quantitative comparative analysis of nine recently developed optimization algorithms for the economic optimization of the heat exchangers. Passing vehicle search, Salp swarm algorithm, Artificial flora optimization, Grey wolf optimizer, Electro-search algorithm, Grasshopper optimisation algorithm, Symbiotic organisms search, Ant lion optimizer, and Heat transfer search algorithm are considered in the present work. Shell and tube, plate-fin, and fin-tube heat exchanger are considered for the optimization. Statistical analyses of the results are carried out to identify the significant between the results of comparative algorithms. The effect of various constraint handling techniques on the performance of the algorithms is identify and presented. Economically optimized geometry of each of the heat exchanger is presented in detail. Finally, the convergence of the considered algorithm in obtaining the minimum total cost solutions are also presented and discussed.
