The rich and continuously updated data environment provided by such systems makes it possible for decisions to be made over time to drive the process toward optimal targets. In many man- ufacturing processes, in order to achieve an overall optimal process, the simultaneous assessment of mul- tiple objective functions related to process performance and cost is necessary. In this work, a multi- objective optimal experimental design framework is proposed to enhance the ef ciency of online model-identi cation platforms. The proposed framework permits exibility in the choice of trade-off experimental design solutions, which are calculated online that is, during the execution of experiments. The application of this framework to improve the online identi cation of kinetic models in ow reactors is illustrated using a case study in which a kinetic model is identi ed for the esteri cation of benzoic acid and ethanol in a microreactor.展开更多

During this waiting period, the standard GWO is seen as the static GWO. To get rid of this waiting period, two dynamic GWO algorithms are proposed: the first dynamic grey wolf optimizer(DGWO1) and the second dynamic grey wolf optimizer(DGWO2). In the dynamic GWO algorithms, the current search wolf does not need to wait for the comparisons between all other search wolves and the leading wolves, and its position can be updated after completing the comparison between itself or the previous search wolf and the leading wolves. The position of the search wolf is promptly updated in the dynamic GWO algorithms, which increases the iterative convergence rate. Based on the structure of the dynamic GWOs, the performance of the other improved GWOs is examined, verifying that for the same improved algorithm, the one based on dynamic GWO has better performance than that based on static GWO in most instances.展开更多
