This paper introduces a new optimization algorithm which is combined with genetic algorithm and random tabu search method. Genetic algorithm is a random search algorithm which can find the global optimum without converging local optimum. And tabu search method is a very fast search method in convergent speed. The optimizing ability and convergent characteristics of a new combined optimization algorithm is identified by using a test function which have many local optimums and an optimum allocation of pipe support. The caculation results are compared with the existing genetic algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a design method of PID controller using an improved Tabu Search. Tabu Search is improved by neighbor solution creation using Gaussian random distribution and generalized Hermite Biehler Theorem for stable bounds. The range of admissible proportional gains are determined first in closed form. Next the optimal PID gains are selected by improved Tabu Search. The results of Computer simulations represent that the proposed Tabu Search algorithm shows a fast convergence speed and a good control performance.

Structural optimization has been carried out in continuous or discrete design space. Methods for continuous design have been well developed though they are finding the local optima. On the contrary, the existing methods for discrete design are extremely expensive in computational cost or not robust. In this research, an algorithm using tabu search is developed fur the discrete structural designs. The tabu list and the neighbor function of the Tabu concepts are introduced to the algorithm. It defines the number of steps, the maximum number for random searches and the stop criteria. A tabu search is known as the heuristic approach while genetic algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm are attributed to the stochastic approach. It is shown that an algorithm using the tabu search with random moves has an advantage of discrete design. Furthermore, the suggested method finds the reliable optimum for the discrete design problems. The existing tabu search methods are reviewed. Subsequently, the suggested method is explained. The mathematical problems and structural design problems are investigated to show the validity of the proposed method. The results of the structural designs are compared with those from a genetic algorithm and an orthogonal array design.

A torsional damper is generally used to reduce the torsional vibration which occurs at a crankshaft of a multi-cylinder high speed diesel engine. Vibration amplitude should be estimate by the appropriate simulation model to determine the optimum specifications of damper. In this paper a new method which was based on the random tabu search method(RTSM) would be introduced for the viscous damper design to optimize the damping performance. The result was ascertained by comparing with conventional rubber damper.

This paper presents a hybrid method to compute the solutions of an optimization Problem. The present hybrid algorithm is the synthesis of an artificial life algorithm and the random tabu search method. The artificial life algorithm has the most important feature called emergence. The emergence is the result of dynamic interaction among the individuals consisting of the system and is not found in an individual. The conventional artificial life algorithm for optimization is a stochastic searching algorithm using the feature of artificial life. Emergent colonies appear at the optimum locations in an artificial ecology. And the locations are the optimum solutions. We combined the feature of random-tabu search method with the conventional algorithm. The feature of random-tabu search method is to divide any given region into sub-regions. The enhanced artificial life algorithm (EALA) not only converge faster than the conventional artificial life algorithm, but also gives a more accurate solution. In addition, this algorithm can find all global optimum solutions. The enhanced artificial life algorithm is applied to the optimum design of high-speed, short journal bearings and its usefulness is verified through an optimization problem.

The design of speed controller for induction motor using tabu search is studied. The proposed sensorless vector control for Induction Motor is composed of two parts. The first part is for optimizing the initial parameters of input-output. The second part is for real time changing parameters of input-output using tabu search. Proposed tabu search is improved by neighbor solution creation using Gaussian random distribution. In order to show the usefulness of the proposed method, we apply the proposed controller to the sensorless speed control of an actual AC induction Motor System. The performance of this approach is verified through simulation.

A neural network with one or more layers of hidden units can be trained using the well-known error back propagation algorithm. According to this algorithm, the synaptic weights of the network are updated during the training by propagating back the error between the expected output and the output provided by the network. However, the error back propagation algorithm is characterized by slow convergence and the time required for training and, in some situation, can be trapped in local minima. A theoretical formulation of a new fast learning method based on tabu search method is presented in this paper. In contrast to the conventional back propagation algorithm which is based solely on the modification of connecting weights of the network by trial and error, the present method involves the calculation of the optimum weights of neural network. The effectiveness and versatility of the present method are verified by the XOR problem. The present method excels in accuracy compared to that of the conventional method of fixed values.

Design optimization process and results of Loop Heat Pipe(LHP) using Tabu Search have been presented in this study. An objective of optimization is to reduce a mass of the LHP with satisfying operating temperature of a Lithium Ion battery onboard an aircraft. The battery is assumed to be used as power supply of air borne high energy laser system because of its high specific energy. The analytical models are based on a steady state mathematical model and the design optimization is performed using a Meta Model and Tabu Search. As an optimization results, the Tabu search algorithm guarantees global optimum with small computation time. Due to searching by random numbers, initial value is dominant factor to search global optimum. The optimization process could reduce the mass of the LHP which express the same performance as an published LHP.
