“…[31][32][33] Among these methods is the particle swarm optimization (PSO). It was considered by many researchers in various fields, such as vehicular applications, 34,35 civil engineering, 31 medical sector, 32 and course scheduling process. 33 In the area of mechanical structures, Shabana et al, [36][37][38] for instance, used it in order to enhance the performance of multilayer plates and cylinders.…”

In this paper, the particle swarm optimization method is used to reduce the weight of a multilayer rotating nonuniform thickness disc along with alleviation of the maximum tangential stress and the maximum tangential stress-jump at the interfaces. The proposed disc is made of functionally graded material and is subjected to both mechanical pressure and thermal loads. It is divided into several layers with each one having its unique volume fraction. These volume fractions are considered the design variables of the optimization problem along with two geometrical parameters related to the disc thickness. The equilibrium equation in polar coordinates are solved using the finite difference method. A punch of optimization results is calculated and discussed. It is concluded that the range of design variables’ variation widens by considering more layers. Finally, there is no potential disc configuration or geometry is found dominant to enhance the design parameters concurrently. Therefore, performing similar optimization analyses is compulsory to obtain an efficient and durable structure.

“…Ride comfort and good vehicle handling are the main functions of the vehicle's suspension system [1,2]. Suspension system designers usually strive to achieve these objectives while holding costs and energy consumption to a minimum [3]. Several suspension system types are commercially available and are being used by vehicle manufacturers depending on the type of vehicle and the purpose of vehicle usage.…”

This work implements a fuzzy logic control (FLC) on a proposed new low-cost semi-active shock absorber to improve vehicle ride comfort. The ordinary passive shock absorber is replaced with a new apparatus consisting of a conventional hydraulic cylinder with a proportional throttle valve placed outside the cylinder between its ports. FLC is used to adjust the damping coefficient by regulating the valve opening region. The fuzzy logic controller is configured using acceleration driven damping (ADD) methodology. Inputs are the accelerations of the sprung and the un-sprung masses, while the opening region of the valve is the output of the controller. Simscape/Matlab is used to build the model of the suggested semi-active shock absorber. The magneto-rheological (MR) suspension system and the suggested semi-active shock absorber with artificial neural network (ANN) controller are provided for comparison purposes. The findings demonstrated superior performance for the suggested shock absorber controlled by FLC relative to other controllers and to the ordinary damper as well, with one fourth of the cost of the magneto-rheological (MR) damper.
