A memetic random-key genetic algorithm for a symmetric multi-objective traveling salesman problem
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2008)This paper proposes a methodology to find weakly Pareto optimal solutions to a symmetric multi-objective traveling salesman problem using a memetic random-key genetic algorithm that has been augmented by a 2-opt local search. The methodology uses a target-vector approach" in which the evaluation function is a weighted Tchebycheff metric with an ideal point and the local search is randomly guided by either a weighted sum of the objectives or a weighted Tchebycheff metric. The memetic algorithm has ...

A heuristic approach for allocation of data to RFID tags: A data allocation knapsack problem (DAKP)
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012)Durable products and their components are increasingly being equipped with one of several forms of automatic identification technology such as radio frequency identification (RFID). This technology enables data collection, storage, and transmission of product information throughout its life cycle. Ideally all available relevant information could be stored on RFID tags with new information being added to the tags as it becomes available. However, because of the finite memory capacity of RFID tags ...

Maximal linear subspaces of strong self-dual 2-forms and the Bonan 4-form
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Elsevier Science Inc, 2011)The notion of self-duality of 2-forms in 4-dimensions plays an eminent role in many areas of mathematics and physics, but although the 2-forms have a genuine meaning related to curvature and gauge-field-strength in higher dimensions also, their "self-duality" is something which is almost avoided above 4-dimensions. We show that self-duality of 2-forms is a very natural notion in higher (even) dimensions also and we prove the equivalence of some scattered and rarely used definitions in the literature. ...

Application of epidemic models to phase transitions
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012)The Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Recovered (SEIR) models describe the spread of epidemics in a society. In the typical case, the ratio of the susceptible individuals fall from a value S-0 close to 1 to a final value S-f, while the ratio of recovered individuals rise from 0 to R-f = 1 - S-f. The sharp passage from the level zero to the level R-f allows also the modeling of phase transitions by the number of "recovered" individuals R(t) of the SIR or SEIR ...

On the Classification of Fifth Order Quasi-linear Non-constant Separant Scalar Evolution Equations of the KdV-Type
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Physical Soc Japan, 2012)Fifth order, quasi-linear, non-constant separant evolution equations are of the form u(t) = A(partial derivative(5)u/partial derivative x(5)) + (B) over tilde, where A and (B) over tilde are functions of x, t, u and of the derivatives of u with respect to x up to order 4. We use the existence of a "formal symmetry'', hence the existence of "canonical conservation laws'' rho((i)), i = -1, . . . , 5 as an integrability test. We define an evolution equation to be of the KdV-Type, if all odd numbered ...

A MATHEMATICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE CRITICAL POINT IN PHASE TRANSITIONS
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2013)Let y(x) be a smooth sigmoidal curve, y((n)) be its nth derivative and {x(m,i)} and {x(a,i)}, i = 1, 2, ... , be the set of points where respectively the derivatives of odd and even order reach their extreme values. We argue that if the sigmoidal curve y(x) represents a phase transition, then the sequences {x(m,i)} and {x(a,i)} are both convergent and they have a common limit x(c) that we characterize as the critical point of the phase transition. In this study, we examine the logistic growth curve ...

On the Time Shift Phenomena in Epidemic Models
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Frontiers Media Sa, 2020)In the standard Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR) models, the peak of infected individuals coincides with the inflection point of removed individuals. Nevertheless, a survey based on the data of the 2009 H1N1 epidemic in Istanbul, Turkey displayed a time shift between the hospital referrals and fatalities. An analysis of recent COVID-19 data and the records for Spanish flu (1918-1919) and SARS (2002-2004) epidemics confirm this observation. We use ...

A mathematical characterization of the gel point in sol-gel transition
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2015)We model the sol-gel transition in terms of Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR) models and compare with experimental results. We show, numerically, that the "gel point" described as the onset of the gelation phenomena and measured experimentally, corresponds to an accumulation point of the extreme values of the derivatives of the gelation curve. We define the "critical point of a sigmoidal curve" as the limit of the points where the derivatives reach ...

On the uniqueness of epidemic models fitting a normalized curve of removed individuals
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Springer Heidelberg, 2015)The susceptible-infected-removed (SIR) and the susceptible-exposed-infected-removed (SEIR) epidemic models with constant parameters are adequate for describing the time evolution of seasonal diseases for which available data usually consist of fatality reports. The problems associated with the determination of system parameters starts with the inference of the number of removed individuals from fatality data, because the infection to death period may depend on health care factors. Then, one ...

AHP-BASED APPROACH TO EVALUATE SOLAR POWER PLANT LOCATION ALTERNATIVES
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(Intl Inst Social & Economic Sci, 2016)Solar energy is the most readily available source of energy, and one of the most important sources of the renewable energy, because it is non-polluting and helps in lessening the greenhouse effect. Main problem of establishing a solar power plant is to determine its location. In the presence of many location alternatives and evaluation criteria, a multiple-criteria decision making problem arises. In this work, the location problem will be solved by using analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to figure ...

On the uniqueness of the octonionic instanton solution on conformally flat 8-manifolds
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2016)Let M be an 8-manifold and E be an SO(8) bundle on M. In a previous paper [F. Ozdemir and A.H. Bilge, "Self-duality in dimensions 2n > 4: equivalence of various definitions and the derivation of the octonionic instanton solution", ARI (1999) 51:247-253], we have shown that if the second Pontrjagin number p(2) of the bundle E is minimal, then the components of the curvature 2-form matrix F with respect to a local orthonormal frame are F-ij = c(ij)omega(ij), where c(ij)'s are certain functions and ...

Modeling of Wind Effects on Stratified Flows in Open Channels: A Model for the Istanbul Strait (Bosphorus)
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(2016)Stratified flows in open channels arise as a result of density or surface level differences. If the channel is connected to a basin at one or both ends, strong winds originating from the basin cause the "wind setup" effect that increases the water level at the entrance of the channel. On the other hand, along the channel, persistent winds in the upper layer flow direction lead to an increase of the drift velocity and to a decrease in upper layer flow depth. The Istanbul Strait (Bosphorus) connecting ...

Generation/transmission investment planning integrated with market equilibrium models in electricity markets
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IEEE, 2017)This paper introduces integrated models for transmission investments anticipating the generation investments and market-clearing equilibrium. Market-clearing models for deregulated electricity markets can inform decision makers on price signals formed in the competitive market, other investor's and/or generator's behaviors underlying these price signals and new generation/transmission investment decisions. Bi-level programming problems are formed for this integrated models and reformulated by using ...

Self-duality in higher dimensions
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017)Let w be a 2-form on a 2n dimensional manifold. In previous work, we called w "strong self-dual, if the eigenvalues of its matrix with respect to an orthonormal frame are equal in absolute value. In a series of papers, we showed that strong self-duality agrees with previous definitions; in particular if w is strong self-dual, then, in 2n dimensions, w(n) is proportional to its Hodge dual w and in 4n dimensions, w(n) is Hodge self-dual. We also obtained a local expression of the Bonan 4-form on 8 ...

Reformulations of a Bilevel Model for Detection of Tacit Collusion in Deregulated Electricity Markets
Authors:
Publisher and Date:(IEEE Computer Society, 2019)In this study, we consider a collusion model for competitive pool based electricity markets operated by an independent system operator (ISO), where it aims to prevent tacit collusion among generators. In order to determine the existence of tacit collusion in the market, we have employed the the game-Theoretic bilevel optimization model proposed by [1]. This model represents the market clearing mechanism, where generators determine their bids in order to maximize their profit while the system ...
