The new algorithm consists of global search, local searching, local tracking and penetration calculation processes. It requires no iteration steps. It can deal with not only general tool surfaces with vertical walls, but also tool surfaces meshed with elements having very poor aspect ratios. It is demonstrated that the FE code employing this new contact search algorithm becomes more reliable, efficient and accurate for sheet metal forming simulation than conventional ones.展开更多

The proposed method uses the operation-based representation, based on schema theorem and building block hypothesis, a new crossover is proposed : By selecting short, low order highly fit schemas to genetic operator, the crossover can exchange meaningful ordering information of parents effectively and can search the global optimization. Simulation results on MT benchmark problem coded by C + + show that our genetic operators are very powerful and suitable to job-shop scheduling problems and our method outperforms the previous GA-based approaches.展开更多
