Application of swarm intelligence algorithms in solving the inverse heat conduction problem
Journal Title: Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science - Year 2012, Vol 19, Issue 4
Abstract
In the paper a proposal of using selected swarm intelligence algorithms for solving the inverse heat conduction problem is presented. The analyzed problem consists in reconstructing temperature distribution in the given domain and the form of heat transfer coefficient appearing in the boundary condition of the third kind. The investigated approaches are based on the Artificial Bee Colony algorithm and the Ant Colony Optimization algorithm, the efficiency of which are examined and compared.

Milestones of Direct Variational Calculus and its Analysis from the 17th Century until today and beyond- Mathematics meets Mechanics- with restriction to linear elasticity
This treatise collects and reflects the major developments of direct (discrete) variational calculus since the end of the 17th century until about 1990, with restriction to classical linear elastome- chanics, such as 1D-...
Probabilistic multiscale analysis of inelastic localized failure in solid mechanics
In this work, we discuss the role of probability in providing the most appropriate multiscale based uncertainty quantification for the inelastic nonlinear response of heterogeneous materials undergoing localized failure....
Identification of an equivalent model for granular soils by FEM/NMM/p-EMP hybrid system
The application of FEM/NMM/p-EMP computational hybrid system in formulation of the Neural Material Model (NMM) for granular soils is presented. NMM is a Multi Layer Preceptron formulated 'on-line'. The cumulative algorit...
Method of fundamental solutions and random numbers for the torsion of bars with multiply connected cross sections
The torsion of bars with multiply connected cross section by means of the method of fundamental solutions (MFS) is considered. Random numbers were used to determine the minimal errors for MFS. Five cases of cross section...
