Optimization of Co-rotating twin-screw extruders using pareto local search

A Pareto Local Search (PLS) algorithm was developed and applied to the screw configuration of co-rotating twin-screw extruders. This problem can be seen as a sequencing problem where a set of different screw elements are to be sequentially positioned along the screw in order to maximize the extruder...
