A reformulation of the ant colony optimization algorithm for large scale structural optimization Hasançebi, Oğuzhan; Saka, M.p. (2011-01-01) This study intends to improve performance of ant colony optimization (ACO) method for structural optimization problems particularly with many design variables or when design variables are chosen from large discrete sets. The algorithm developed with ACO method employs the so-called pheromone scaling approach to overcome entrapment of the search in a poor local optimum and thus to recover efficiency of the method for large-scale optimization problems. Besides, a new formulation is proposed for the local upda...
A macroscopic model for self-organized aggregation in swarm robotic systems Soysal, Onur; Şahin, Erol (2006-10-01) We study the self-organized aggregation of a swarm of robots in a closed arena. We assume that the perceptual range of the robots are smaller than the size of the arena and the robots do not have information on the size of the swarm or the arena. Using a probabilistic aggregation behavior model inspired from studies of social insects, we propose a macroscopic model for predicting the final distribution of aggregates in terms of the parameters of the aggregation behavior, the arena size and the sensing chara...
A comparative study of quadtree decomposition and constrained delaunay triangulation using MDP and artificial potential field based path planning Kandehir, Başe; Saranlı, Afşar; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019) The general purpose of a mobile robot is moving from one point to another and perform certain tasks. To do so, it first computes a motion strategy and then tries to execute it. This is not feasible most of the time unless uncertainties of the real world is taken into account. Markov decision processes (MDPs) provide a mathematical system to deal with uncertainties of planning and execution stages. MDPs require finite set of states. Therefore, continuous space of the real world must be discretized. In this s...
A Numerical Approach to Simulating Oxidation in Thermal Barrier Coatings Saeidi, Farid; Gürses, Ercan; Aslan, Özgür (Elsevier, Elsevier, 2020-01-01) Computational analysis and simulation of multi-physics phenomena taking place in coating systems is still a challenging task. Specifically, for ceramic coatings used as a system of protection for base materials against elevated temperatures, known as thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems, construction of continuum level models which can express coupled nonlinear phenomena has attracted great attention. Thermal stresses, oxidation, creep and numerous other mechanisms and phenomena makes it even harder to mod...
