Genetic algorithm to simultaneously optimise stope sequencing and equipment dispatching in underground short-term mine planning under time uncertainty

ABSTRACT

The main issue in short-term planning optimisation for underground mining is organising the mining process with limited resources in the form of equipment and materials to satisfy production targets and stable feed grade requirements. In this paper, an integrated optimisation model is proposed based on an individual generation algorithm and an improved Genetic Algorithm to simultaneously optimise stope extraction sequencing and timing, extracted ore grade and equipment dispatching. The model objectives are to shorten the time gap between the stope mining processes and the overall working time. When the uncertainty of equipment working time is taken into account in a short-term scheduling model, the Monte Carlo simulation is applied to evaluate the risk of not meeting the production target. A modification strategy is defined to evaluate equipment failure. Consequently, any available equipment is automatically reassigned to the mining site to replace the broken-down equipment. A case study is used to validate the model in the Sanshandao gold mine of China to formulate an optimal monthly schedule. Compared with the conventional approach, the new model could reduce the variance of ore tonnage and feed grade and improve the equipment allocation efficiency. Discussions are presented to address the uncertainty.     

Professional design of chemical plants based on problem-based learning on a pilot plant

This work describes a novel teaching methodology and its application in a subject framed in the last course of the master’s degree in Chemical Engineering at the University of Seville. The main aim consists of promoting a way to facilitate professional practice in this field to the students. Authors also aim at guiding the transition to the new learning requirements demanded by the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).The novel methodology is based on the development of a detailed design of a pilot plant that can be further evaluated by the students themselves. Students are also allowed to run experiments at the facility and carry out several standard tests to verify the quality of the results of their works. The novelty of this proposal consists of incorporating a real installation available in our department to drive new learning methodologies applied in Chemical Engineering curricula. The methodology is distributed across several tasks: training (self-learning), project execution and supervision, comparison with a real installation and pilot plant experiences. The application of the proposed teaching methodology provided quality didactic material production, high satisfaction of the students with the new learning approach and the fact that they gained practical experience at industrial scale.

Analog active filter design using a multi objective genetic algorithm

The selection of the correct values for passive elements, resistors, and capacitors, is an important task in analog active filter design. The classic method of choosing passive elements is a difficult task and can lead to errors. To reduce the incidence of error and human effort evolutionary optimization techniques are used to select the values of capacitors and resistors. However, due to the single objective optimization technique, these are not well suited to optimize different filter parameters. For this reason, the performance of a multi-objective genetic algorithm named non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II) against the different single objective algorithms is evaluated. Two analog active filters: A fourth order Butterworth and a second order state variable filter with the operational amplifiers in their cores are used for testing purposes. In both cases two different objects are chosen along with eight components as variables to be optimized. The component values are compatible with the E12, E24 and E96 series using NSGA-II. The computation results are better in terms of design error and allow for better resistor and capacitor choice. To reach the same or better results the NSGA-II needs fewer generations compared with other genetic algorithms for this problem.

Techno-economic analysis for rustic electrification in Egypt using multi-source renewable energy based on PV/ wind/ FC

A technical-economic investigation based on mathematical modeling, simulation, and optimization approach is employed in this research to assemble an island combined renewable energy systems (CRES) consists of solar PV/Wind/Fuel Cell (FC) of a small-scale countryside area in Egypt. The intent of the proposed island CRES is to boost the share of renewable energy in the energy mix and to study the possibility of using fuel cells as a storage/backup system instead of using battery banks.Three combinations of CRES are presented in this research to select the most optimum one. The combinations of the hybrid systems are PV/FC, PV/WT/FC, and WT/FC. The performance and the total cost of the suggested CRES were optimized using Firefly Algorithm (FA). The results obtained from the FA are compared with those obtained from the Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) and the particle swarm optimization (PSO).The selected case study area with latitude and longitude of (29.0214 N, 30.8714 E) is identified for economic viability in this work.The simulation outcomes show that the solar PV/Wind/Fuel Cell combination incorporated with an electrolyzer for hydrogen production grants the excellent performance. The proposed system is economically viable with a levelized cost of energy of 0.47 $/kWh.     

Teacher regulation of multiple computer-supported collaborating groups

Teachers regulating groups of students during computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) face the challenge of orchestrating their guidance at student, group, and class level. During CSCL, teachers can monitor all student activity and interact with multiple groups at the same time. Not much is known about the way teachers diagnose student progress and decide upon appropriate interventions when they regulate multiple groups synchronously. This explorative study describes the strategies and experiences related to regulating the activities of seven groups of students, as reported by two teachers, and aimed to widen the framework for describing teacher regulation of CSCL settings that are characterized by synchronicity. Recurring themes included the high amount of information load teachers experienced while diagnosing students’ needs, the focus and level of regulation, and the way the teachers used prior knowledge of students to decide on an intervention after diagnosis. Both teachers valued the ability to monitor student progress online, and mentioned the necessity of students being able to follow the teacher’s activity as well. Theoretical implications are described in terms of understanding teacher regulation, synchronicity, and information load. Practical implications are described for lowering information load.     

Secondary school educators' perceptions and practices in handling cyberbullying among adolescents: A cluster analysis

School educators play an important role in cyberbullying management. Since scarce earlier research indicated low perceived competence of school educators in handling cyberbullying, more insight is needed in what determines their actions and how to improve these practices. This study assessed school educator practices, their perceptions and context factors from a behavior change theoretical framework, and investigated educator clusters related to this. An online survey was conducted among 451 secondary school educators (teachers, principals, school counselors). School educators mostly used recommended actions (i.e. conversations with pupils, enlisting professionals for support, parental involvement, providing supportive victim advice). Four educator clusters were identified: ‘referrers’ (65%), ‘disengaged’ educators (14%), ‘concerned’ educators (12%) and ‘use all means’ educators (9%). The first two clusters were less adept at handling cyberbullying and comprised mostly teachers, particularly indicating a need for training teachers. Our findings show a need for tailored educator training, e.g. by job position, gender, school size and grade. The behavior change theoretical framework can help target educators' particular needs.     

A modified cross-correlation algorithm for PIV image processing of particle-fluid two-phase flow

PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) technique for flow field measurement has achieved popular self-identify through over ten years development, and its application range is becoming wider and wider. PIV post-processing techniques have a great influence on the success of particle-fluid two-phase flow field measurement and thus become a hot and difficult topic. In the present study, a Phase Respective Identification Algorithm (PRIA) is introduced to separate low-density solid particles or bubbles and high-density tracer particles from the PIV image of particle-fluid two-phase flow. PTV (Particle Tracking Velocimetry) technique is employed to calculate the velocity fields of low-density solid particles or bubbles. For the velocity fields of high-density solid particles or bubble phase and continuous phase traced by high-density smaller particles, based on the thought of wavelet transform and multi-resolution analysis and the theory of cross-correlation of image, a delaminated processing algorithm (MCCWM) is presented to conquer the limitation of conventional Fourier transform. The algorithm is firstly testified on synthetic two-phase flows, such as uniform steady flow, shearing flow and rotating flow, and the computational results from the simulated particle images are in reasonable agreement with the given simulated data. The algorithm is then applied to images of actual bubble-liquid two-phase flow and jet flow, and the results also confirmed that the algorithm proposed in the present study has good performance and reliability for post-processing PIV images of particle-fluid two-phase flow.
