An elitist teaching-learning-based optimization algorithm for solving complex constrained optimization problems
R. Rao,Vivek Patel +1 more
TL;DR: Elitism concept is introduced in the TLBO algorithm and its effect on the performance of the algorithm is investigated and the effects of common controlling parameters such as the population size and the number of generations on the results are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
An improved teaching-learning-based optimization algorithm for solving unconstrained optimization problems
R. Venkata Rao,Vivek Patel +1 more
TL;DR: The basic TLBO algorithm is improved to enhance its exploration and exploitation capacities by introducing the concept of number of teachers, adaptive teaching factor, tutorial training and self motivated learning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-objective optimization of heat exchangers using a modified teaching-learning-based optimization algorithm
R. Venkata Rao,Vivek Patel +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified version of the TLBO algorithm is introduced and applied for the multi-objective optimization of heat exchangers, where the objective function is to maximize the heat exchanger effectiveness and minimize the total cost of the exchanger.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design optimization of shell-and-tube heat exchanger using particle swarm optimization technique
Vivek Patel,Ravipudi Venkata Rao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the use of a non-traditional optimization technique; called particle swarm optimization (PSO), for design optimization of shell-and-tube heat exchangers from economic view point.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat transfer search (HTS)
Vivek Patel,Vimal Savsani +1 more
TL;DR: A novel meta-heuristic optimization method based on the law of thermodynamics and heat transfer for solving constraint optimization problems and the results obtained are compared with some well-known metaheuristic search algorithms available in the literature.
