Introduction/purpose: An approximation for assessing a definite integral is continuously an attractive topic owing to its practical needs in scientific and engineering areas. An efficient approach for preliminarily calculating a definite integral with a small number of sampling points was newly developed to get an approximate value for a numerical integral with a complicated integrand. In the present paper, an efficient approach with a small number of sampling points is combined to the novel probability-based multi-objective optimization (PMOO) by means of uniform experimental design so as to simplify the complicated definite integral in the PMOO preliminarily. Methods: The distribution of sampling points within its single peak domain is deterministic and uniform, which follows the rules of the uniform design method and good lattice points; the total preferable probability is the unique and deterministic index in the PMOO. Results: The applications of the efficient approach with finite sampling points in solving typical problems of PMOO indicate its rationality and convenience in the operation. Conclusion: The efficient approach with finite sampling points for assessing a definite integral is successfully combined with PMOO by means of the uniform design method and good lattice points.

Introduction/purpose: This paper examines some of the applications of Chebyshev's inequality. Using Chebyshev's inequality, the analysis of a preliminary feasibility study for constructing a solar thermal power plant in the Banja Luka area has been conducted. The goal of the preliminary analysis is to show, without financial investments, if there is a basis for the climate parameters measurement in the area. Methods: For the known values of the arithmetic means and the standard deviations of the number of cloudy days, the probability of deviation of the number of cloudy days from the mean value was defined by applying Chebyshev's inequality. Results: The diagram shows the values of the upper and lower limits of the number of cloudy days that deviate from the expected value with a probability of 50%. Conclusion: The preliminary assessment of the justification of the realization of a solar thermal power plant justifies the measurements necessary for the analysis and detailed calculation of this type of a plant, because the annual interval of cloudy days is from 94 to 164, or from 26 to 44% in the year.

Introduction/purpose: In this paper, probability based multi - objective optimization (PMOO) is employed to objectively study the optimization problems of the drug encapsulation of water-soluble chitosan (WSC) / poly - gama - glutamic acid ( g -PGA) - tanshinone IIA (TA) with a response surface design and glycerosome - triptolide with an orthogonal experimental design. Methods: In PMOO, a concept of preferable probability has been introduced to describe a preference degree of the performance utility. Each beneficial and unbeneficial utility index contributes a partial preferable probability in a linear manner, positively and negatively, respectively and all the performance utility indicators are simultaneously and equally treated. The total preferable probability of a candidate is the product of all partial preferable probabilities, which thus transfers a multi-objective problem into a single-objective one. Results: 1. The optimal encapsulation of WSC / g-PGA - TA is for WSCof 5.755 mg.ml-1 , TA of 1.0275 mg.ml-1 , when the ratio of TA to the carrier material is 1: 4.9, and the reaction time is 1.302h. 2. The optimal preparation conditions of glycerosomes - triptolide are a glycerol concentration of 20%, the phospholipid to cholesterol mass ratio of 30:1 and the phospholipid to triptolide mass ratio of 5:1. Conclusion: The results show the applicability of PMOO in the optimization of encapsulation composites with designed tests.

Introduction/purpose: An approximate approach to definite integral calculation has been an attractive problem continuously since the creation of integration due to practical needs in scientific and engineering areas. In most practical cases, the integrand is complex, which leads to a difficulty of obtaining an exact value of integration, so an approximate value of the definite integral with certain accuracy is satisfactory for practical applications. In this paper, an efficient approach for calculating a definite integral with a small number of sampling points is proposed based on the uniform design method from the viewpoint of practical application. Methods: The distribution of sampling points in its single peak domain is deterministic and uniform, which follows the rule of the uniform design method and good lattice points. Results: The efficient evaluation of a definite integral for a periodical function in its single peak domain can be obtained by using 11 sampling points in one dimension, 17 sampling points in two dimensions, and 19 sampling points in three dimensions. Conclusion: The efficient approach for a definite integral developed here on the basis of the uniform test design method is promised from the viewpoint of practical application; the sampling points are deterministically and uniformly distributed according to the rule of the uniform design method and "good lattice points". The efficient approach developed in this article will be beneficial to relevant research and application.

Introduction/purpose: The use of modern military aircraft requires an extraordinary effort of human and material potential to ensure the conditions for the execution of specific tasks. Complex technology, different spatial and temporal conditions of aircraft use impose the need to create organizational and technical conditions to assist the pilot during flight with the aim of safely and completely accomplishing the flight task. The aim of this paper is to identify possible problems in the organization of the flight safety system through the description of the influence of technical factors on flight safety and to find the best solutions for overcoming problems during the life cycle of the aircraft. Methods: In the research of the subject area, first of all, the analysis of the regulations regulating the field of flight safety was carried out, and then a description of the technical means and their impact on flight safety was carried out. Results: On the basis of the performed analysis, the activities to ensure the reliability of the aircraft during development and production were defined, and directions for improving flight safety were proposed through the amendments of regulations, organizational and technical as well as technological measures. Conclusion: The results of the analysis confirm the assumptions about the possible directions of development and improvement of flight safety of military aircraft through improvement and installation of technical systems (devices and equipment), both aviation and ground.

Introduction/purpose: The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of an interpolative generalised Meir-Keeler contractive condition for a pair of self maps in a fuzzy metric space, which enlarges, unifies and generalizes the Meir-Keeler contraction which is for only one self map. Using this, we establish a unique common fixed point theorem for two self maps through weak compatibility. The article includes an example, which shows the validity of our results. Methods: Functional analysis methods with a Meir-Keeler contraction. Results: A unique fixed point for self maps in a fuzzy metric space is obtained. Conclusions: A fixed point of the self maps is obtained.

Introduction/purpose: The paper presents a systematic approach to the development of a series hybrid electric tracked vehicle (HETV) including powertrain sizing and adequate energy management strategy (EMS) selection. Methods: Powertrain elements were sized considering key performance requirements. Three energy management strategies were proposed: Thermostat Control Strategy (TCS), Power Follower Control Strategy (PFCS), and Optimal Power Source Strategy (OPSS). The evaluation of the powertrain configuration and the three proposed EMSs was performed in the Simulink environment using a driving cycle containing significant acceleration, braking and steering. Results: The results showed that the OPSS proved to be the best due to increased fuel economy and a low battery state of charge (SOC) variation. Compared to the previous research of the same vehicle with a parallel hybrid configuration, significantly better results were achieved. The investigation of the results indicates that the proposed powertrain and control strategy offer 53.79% better fuel economy which indicates that the powertrain sizing was properly performed. Conclusions: The results of this work are of great importance for understanding the effect of proper powertrain sizing on fuel economy. Compared to the reference vehicle, the proposed configuration achieves significant improvement, most of which is attributed to adequate sizing. The OPSS proved to be the best strategy, thus confirming the theoretical hypothesis. The series hybrid configuration with the OPSS as the EMS proved to be a major candidate for use in HETVs.

Introduction/Purpose: Aircraft present one of the safest and most frequently used means of transport. However, despite taking many security measures, accidents happen. No matter a damage level, if the aircraft somehow manages to land, the most important is to evacuate passengers from the aircraft, fast and safely. Evacuation of aircraft is very complex and depends on many different factors such as a damage degree, presence of fire, speed of passengers, presence of panic and fear, etc. So, it is important to, somehow, as much as possible, predict potential ways of evacuation and potential evacuation strategies and routes. Landed aircraft can be in different conditions so fast and safe evacuation of passengers is very important. The only way to predict safe evacuation routes, to determine proper evacuation strategies and to calculate potential evacuation times needed to leave the aircraft is to use some adequate simulation software. Methods: In this paper, for calculating needed evacuation times and potential evacuation routes, the simulation method was used. Simulations of evacuation scenarios and calculations of evacuation times were realized in Pathfinder software. The simulation model created in Pathfinder was a model of the A 321 aircraft related to its real dimensions. Results: The results of this paper, obtained on an appropriate simulation model of the aircraft with stairs and emergency slides, have shown the evacuation times for two different evacuation scenarios with different speeds of passengers/occupants. Conclusion: A proper evacuation strategy and the fastest evacuation of occupants are crucial for saving lives. Simulation software use in evacuation problems presents a very effective way in terms of safety, cost-effectiveness and prediction. This kind of software presents an obligatory engineering tool for more effective and more precise dealing with evacuation and similar problems. This paper was written to show how simulation software can be used for calculating evacuation times from an airplane on land.
