Hybrid cooperative coevolution for fuzzy flexible job shop scheduling problems [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we consider a variant of the flexible job shop scheduling problem with uncertain task durations modelled as fuzzy numbers. We propose a cooperative coevolutionary algorithm to minimise the schedule’s makespan, with two different populations

Efficient heuristics for the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with missing operations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper, we address the hybrid flowshop scheduling problem for makespan minimisation. More specifically, we are interested in the special case where there are missing operations, i.e.

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

A hybrid particle swarm optimisation for flexible casting job shop scheduling problem with batch processing machine

open access: yesIET Collaborative Intelligent Manufacturing
A flexible casting job shop scheduling problem (FCJSP) with batch processing machines is proposed based on the analysis of the flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSP) and the study of the expendable casting process. Considering the makespan under the

Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...
