Parameter Tuning for Local-Search-Based Matheuristic Methods

Complexity, 2017
Algorithms that aim to solve optimisation problems by combining heuristics and mathematical programming have attracted researchers’ attention. These methods, also known as matheuristics, have been shown to perform especially well for large, complex ...

Layout Optimisation of Wave Energy Converter Arrays

Energies, 2017
This paper proposes an optimisation strategy for the layout design of wave energy converter (WEC) arrays. Optimal layouts are sought so as to maximise the absorbed power given a minimum q-factor, the minimum distance between WECs, and an area of ...

System architecture for mastering machine parameter optimisation

Computers in Industry, 2017
Abstract In mobile machines, as well as in manufacturing, the overall productivity is essential for business competitiveness. As the operation of a modern mobile machine is affected by various parameters, they need to be tuned to reach an optimal performance – however, due to machine complexity, parameter optimisation is difficult for a typical ...

Delivery of DNA‐encoded vaccines and proteins in mice using cutaneous suction‐mediated transfection

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cutaneous suction‐mediated transfection in mice for delivery of DNA‐encoded vaccines and proteins. A critical limitation of DNA vaccines and other therapeutics is transfection in vivo to produce the encoded antigens or therapeutic proteins. Cutaneous suction‐based methods have demonstrated effectiveness in many animal models and have been successfully ...

Structural studies and functional engineering of NanX: an anhydro‐sialic acid transporter from Escherichia coli

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

REDUCING SURFACE ROUGHNESS BY OPTIMISING THE TURNING PARAMETERS

The South African Journal of Industrial Engineering, 2013
Modern manufacturers worldwide look for the cheapest quality-manufactured machined components to compete in the market. Good surface quality is desired for the proper functioning of the parts produced. The surface quality is influenced by the cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, and many other parameters. In this paper, the Taguchi method a powerful

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Ultra‐high‐dimensional multi‐level optimisation strategies for electrical machines

IET Electric Power Applications
Electrical machine optimisation is normally a high‐dimensional non‐linear multi‐objective optimisation problem. A multi‐level optimisation (MO) strategy is currently used to improve efficiency, where sensitivity analysis is required for dividing design ...
