Descrição

In the past decade, evolutionary based algorithms have been a popular research theme in many disciplinary areas like control systems. Although, due to the computational load required, this type of algorithms usually are applied off-line. In this paper, a stochastic search algorithm known as particle swarm is used as an optimisation tool for on-line control of a custom made laboratory thermodynamic system.
