        Construction of bridge piers is expensive, and scouring near them can lead to instability. Without a suitable solution, it can ultimately result in the structure’s destruction. Therefore, a detailed study is required to understand this phenomenon and the factors affecting it. This research entails utilizing extensive field data to measure the local scour depth around bridge piers. It proposes an equation comprising scour-affecting parameters and defines an optimization model to establish this relationship. The decision variables of this model were determined using a meta-heuristic algorithm called the hybrid gray wolf-particle swarm (HPSGWO). For this purpose, various relationships were established to ascertain scour depth, and subsequently, the local scour depth of the bridge piers was calculated, based on these equations. Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Relative Square Root (RSR), Nash-Sutcliffe Efficiency (NSE), Percent Bias (PBIAS), and Correlation Coefficient (CC) were employed as error measurement indices to evaluate the relationships. Upon comparison of the error measurement indices for the obtained relationships, the best input parameter combination and mathematical relationship for calculating scour depth were determined. These indices for the superior model are equal to 0.504 m, 0.52, 0.73, 7.7%, and 0.734 for RMSE, RSR, NSE, PBIAS, and CC, respectively. These values show that the equation presented in this research is suitable for calculating scour depth and is more reliable than the presented experimental methods. In the proposed relationship, scour depth is directly proportional to the Froude number and the ratio of base width to water depth while inversely proportional to the average size of bed particles to water depth.

        Due to the increase in the volume of data and information in recent years, the issue of choosing the most appropriate feature for decision making has become very important. Classic attribute selection methods cannot work well on big data. Because feature selection is a complex problem, it seems appropriate to use meta-heuristic algorithms to solve this problem. In this paper, a new meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by nomadic migration to solve the feature selection problem is presented. This algorithm is named in honor of the Qashqai tribe. In this hybrid algorithm, the proportional function was designed based on the feature selection algorithm and based on minimizing the number of features and the amount of data error using neural network results. Then the Qashqai meta-heuristic algorithm was implemented on this fitness function and the results were compared with the well-known meta-heuristic algorithms of genetics and particle swarm. The results of the hypothesis test showed that the Qashqai optimization algorithm to solve the feature selection problem by the genetic algorithm and particle swarm is not defeated and in terms of convergence to the optimal solution works well.

        One of the important features of industrialized and developing countries is the presence of money, dynamic market and capital. In other words, if the saving of individuals will be directed by appropriate mechanism to the manufacturing sector it brings efficiency not only to the owners of capital but also it can be considered as the most important funding for launching economic projects of society.In present study, three stock selection and optimization algorithms including genetic algorithm, particle swarm algorithm, and cultural algorithm has been studied. So, 106 listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange, since 2007 to 2014 were tested in order to investigate this.In this study, for plotting the efficient frontier and comprising of the optimal portfolio half of the variance is considered as the main factor of risk. This research investigates the significant difference between the averages of investment output in selected baskets based on three methods. The statistical analysis of the results shows that there is no difference between the three algorithms. However, in order to compare the two algorithms and analysis of superiority of algorithms, these two methods of optimization have been compared from two aspects of objective function, output ratio and risk.Since the objective function of particle swarm algorithms was less, in other word, it has the least error and gain the best result so in comparing to other algorithms it has been performed better which shows the relative superiority of this algorithms in the selection of the optimal portfolio.

        This research has been written with the aim of presenting a multi-objective model for locating warehouses through the particle swarm optimization algorithm in Artaville Tire Company. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of the nature of research and data collection is a survey and descriptive branch. Data collection tools are documents, documents and interviews with experts. Also, considering that the research seeks to locate the warehouse using the particle swarm optimization algorithm, the research is of a predictive type. Given that this problem falls into the category of Hard-PN problems, a supra-innovative method based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to solve it. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, two particle group optimization algorithms and genetics have been used as benchmark algorithms. The proposed algorithms and particle group optimization are implemented in 7.5 Matlab programming environment and the genetic algorithm is implemented using Matlab 7.5 software toolbox. According to the results of this study, it was found that the use of particle swarm algorithm to solve the problem of vehicle routing can improve the amount of objective function as well as the total number of routes traveled by vehicles.

        Objective: The goal is to select an optimal portfolio of stocks by allocating capital among various investment opportunities in the stock market to achieve maximum return at a specified level of risk. This constitutes an efficient portfolio.Research Methodology: Attaining an efficient portfolio involves solving an optimization problem. There are numerous techniques and tools available to solve this issue. In this study, 15 stocks from companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange, including symbols such as Khapars, Khazamiya, Vepasar, Foulad, Akhabar, Kegel, Femli, Tapiko, Sepaha, Fazer, Fakhas, Shohbaran, Shefan, Qamro and Qathabat, were selected using cluster sampling. First, the daily returns of these stocks were calculated over a 5-year period from 2015 to 2020 (1183 days). The risk of the optimal investment portfolio was then calculated using the Mean-Semi Variance and Conditional Value at Risk models. These two criteria were compared using a classic solution method. Subsequently, the output data obtained from these calculations were compared using MATLAB software, employing the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm under the Mean-Semi Variance risk criterion and the Genetic Algorithm under the Conditional Value at Risk criterion.Findings: The results of this study indicate that the meta-heuristic Particle Swarm Optimization method yields a higher portfolio return ratio compared to the Genetic Algorithm in the Mean-Semi Variance risk criterion.Originality / Value: This research utilizes multi-objective genetic algorithms and Particle Swarm Optimization, which are intelligent and novel algorithms, to minimize the objective function value using Conditional Value at Risk and Mean-Semi Variance criteria. These algorithms optimize the return and risk ratios of the stocks in the investment portfolio with the highest possible accuracy. Additionally, the efficiency comparison of these models using MATLAB software contributes an innovative aspect to this study. Manuscript profile
