Concentrated Solar Power Systems
Genetic algorithms are a type of optimization technique inspired by the process of natural selection, where potential solutions to a problem evolve over generations. They work by creating a population of solutions, evaluating their fitness, and using processes like selection, crossover, and mutation to produce new generations that ideally improve on the previous ones. This method is particularly useful for complex problems, making it relevant for designing efficient layouts in solar fields and optimizing the operation of CSP plants.
congrats on reading the definition of genetic algorithms. now let's actually learn it.
