Dynamic multi-objective optimization based on membrane computing for control of time-varying unstable plants
TL;DR: A novel membrane control strategy is proposed in this article and is applied to the optimal control of a time-varying unstable plant and results clearly illustrate that the control strategy based on the dynamic multi-objective optimization algorithm is highly effective with a short rise time and a small overshoot.

Design of shell-and-tube heat exchangers using multiobjective optimization
TL;DR: In this article, a multiobjective optimization of the heat transfer area and pumping power of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger is presented to provide the designer with multiple Pareto-optimal solutions which capture the trade-off between the two objectives.
