A Mixed Discrete PSO Algorithm for Synthesis of Mass Exchange Network with Incompatible Multicomponent

A new mixed discrete particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, i.e. DCH-PSO, was presented to solve mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems. The main contribution of DCH-PSO is to produce integer speed for discrete variable by randomly choosing it from an integer speed range, which i...
