This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Parallel Computational Technologies, PCT 2017, held in Kazan, Russia, in April 2017. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 167 submissions. The papers …
The book shows how simulations long history and close ties to industry since the third industrial revolution have led to its growing importance in Industry 4.0. The book emphasises the role of simulation in the new industrial revolution, and its application as a key aspect of ma…
The applicability of the present model of an ideal two-probe impedance measurement, treated as a current injection/extraction problem, is demonstrated for a fairly good conductor, in this case a nickel-base superalloy. However, the scope of this model may be extended to good sem…
2D Model of a Floating Body Under Nonlinear Waves.
Braking Process in Automobiles: Investigation of the Thermoelastic Instability Phenomenon.
It is concluded that the presented simulation environment Matlab/SimuLink/Comsol is capable of solving a large range of integrated HAM problems. Furthermore, it seems promising in accurately solving modelling problems that are caused by the presence of different time scales and/…
This book is designed as a reference book and presents a systematic approach to analyze evolutionary and nature-inspired population-based search algorithms. Beginning with an introduction to optimization methods and algorithms and various enzymes, the book then moves on to provi…
