The algorithm is initially tested with Rastrigin’s function and compared with Genetic algorithm results for the function with the same initial conditions. After this, it is used in tuning the gains of fuzzy PD + I controller for trajectory control of PUMA 560 robot manipulator. The results are again verified with the results of genetic algorithm.展开更多

This novel optimization algorithm is very efficient and as promising as it is;it can be favourably compared to other optimization algorithms and in some cases, it has been proven to be better than some known algorithms (like Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)), especially when used in Well placement optimization problems that can be encountered in the Petroleum industry. In this paper, the ABC algorithm has been modified to improve its speed and convergence in finding the optimum solution to a well placement optimization problem. The effects of variations of the control parameters for both algorithms were studied, as well as the algorithms’ performances in the cases studied. The modified ABC (MABC) algorithm gave better results than the Artificial Bee Colony algorithm. It was noticed that the performance of the ABC algorithm increased with increase in the number of its optimization agents for both algorithms studied. The modified ABC algorithm overcame the challenge posed by the use of uniformly generated random numbers with very rough NPV surface. This new modified ABC algorithm proposed in this work will be a great tool in optimization for the Petroleum industry as it involves Well placements for optimum oil production.展开更多
