TL;DR: A new nature‐inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm, called bat algorithm (BA), based on the echolocation behavior of bats is introduced, and the optimal solutions obtained are better than the best solutions obtained by the existing methods.
Abstract: – Nature‐inspired algorithms are among the most powerful algorithms for optimization. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new nature‐inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm, called bat algorithm (BA), for solving engineering optimization tasks., – The proposed BA is based on the echolocation behavior of bats. After a detailed formulation and explanation of its implementation, BA is verified using eight nonlinear engineering optimization problems reported in the specialized literature., – BA has been carefully implemented and carried out optimization for eight well‐known optimization tasks; then a comparison has been made between the proposed algorithm and other existing algorithms., – The optimal solutions obtained by the proposed algorithm are better than the best solutions obtained by the existing methods. The unique search features used in BA are analyzed, and their implications for future research are also discussed in detail.

TL;DR: The application of integral equation methods to exterior boundary-value problems for Laplace's equation and for the Helmholtz (or reduced wave) equation is discussed in this article, where it is shown that uniqueness can be restored by deriving a second integral equation and suitably combining it with the first.
Abstract: The application of integral equation methods to exterior boundary-value problems for Laplace’s equation and for the Helmholtz (or reduced wave) equation is discussed. In the latter case the straightforward formulation in terms of a single integral equation may give rise to difficulties of non-uniqueness; it is shown that uniqueness can be restored by deriving a second integral equation and suitably combining it with the first. Finally, an outline is given of methods for transforming the integral operators with strongly singular kernels which occur in the second equation.
