In this study, a novel application of neurocomputing technique is presented for solving nonlinear heat transfer and natural convection porous fin problems arising in almost all areas of engineering and technology, especially in mechanical engineering. The mathematical models of the problems are exploited by the intelligent strength of Euler polynomials based Euler neural networks (ENN’s), optimized with a generalized normal distribution optimization (GNDO) algorithm and Interior point algorithm (IPA). In this scheme, ENN’s based differential equation models are constructed in an unsupervised manner, in which the neurons are trained by GNDO as an effective global search technique and IPA, which enhances the local search convergence. Moreover, a temperature distribution of heat transfer and natural convection porous fin are investigated by using an ENN-GNDO-IPA algorithm under the influence of variations in specific heat, thermal conductivity, internal heat generation, and heat transfer rate, respectively. A large number of executions are performed on the proposed technique for different cases to determine the reliability and effectiveness through various performance indicators including Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), error in Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (ENSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and Thiel’s inequality coefficient (TIC). Extensive graphical and statistical analysis shows the dominance of the proposed algorithm with state-of-the-art algorithms and numerical solver RK-4.

In this study, the intelligent computational strength of neural networks (NNs) based on the backpropagated Levenberg-Marquardt (BLM) algorithm is utilized to investigate the numerical solution of nonlinear multiorder fractional differential equations (FDEs). The reference data set for the design of the BLM-NN algorithm for different examples of FDEs are generated by using the exact solutions. To obtain the numerical solutions, multiple operations based on training, validation, and testing on the reference data set are carried out by the design scheme for various orders of FDEs. The approximate solutions by the BLM-NN algorithm are compared with analytical solutions and performance based on mean square error (MSE), error histogram (EH), regression, and curve fitting. This further validates the accuracy, robustness, and efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, a mathematical model for wire coating in the presence of pressure type die along with the bath of Oldroyd 8-constant fluid is presented. The model is governed by a partial differential equation, transformed into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation in dimensionless form through similarity transformations. We have designed a novel soft computing paradigm to analyze the governing mathematical model of wire coating by defining weighted Legendre polynomials based on Legendre neural networks (LeNN). Training of design neurons in the network is carried out globally by using the whale optimization algorithm (WOA) hybrid with the Nelder–Mead (NM) algorithm for rapid local convergence. Designed scheme (LeNN-WOA-NM algorithm) is applied to study the effect of variations in dilating constant (α), pressure gradient (Ω), and pseudoplastic constant β on velocity profile w(r) of fluid. To validate the proposed technique's efficiency, solutions and absolute errors are compared with the particle swarm optimization algorithm. Graphical and statistical performance of fitness value, absolute errors, and performance measures in terms of minimum, mean, median, and standard deviations further establishes the worth of the designed scheme for variants of the wire coating process.

The current study delivers a numerical investigation on the performance of heat transfer and flow of micropolar fluid in porous Darcy structures with isothermal and isoflux walls (boundary conditions) of a stretching sheet. The dynamics and mechanism of such fluid flows are modelled by nonlinear partial differential equations that are reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by utilizing the porosity of medium and similarity functions. Generally, the explicit or analytical solutions for such nonlinear problems are hard to calculate. Therefore, we have designed a computer or artificial intelligence-based numerical technique. The reliability of neural networks using the machine learning (ML) approach is used with a local optimization technique to investigate the behaviours of different material parameters such as the Prandtl number, micropolar parameters, Reynolds number, heat index parameter, injection/suction parameter on the temperature profile, fluid speed, and spin/rotational behaviour of the microstructures. The approximate solutions determined by the efficient machine learning approach are compared with the classical Runge–Kutta fourth-order method and generalized finite difference approximation on a quasi-uniform mesh. The accuracy of the errors lies around 10⁻⁸ to 10⁻¹⁰ between the traditional analytical solutions and machine learning strategy. ML-based techniques solve different problems without discretization or computational work, and are not subject to the continuity or differentiability of the governing model. Moreover, the results are illustrated briefly to help implement microfluids in drug administering, elegans immobilization, and pH controlling processes.

In this paper, a novel soft computing algorithm is designed for the numerical solution of third-order nonlinear multi-singular Emden-Fowler equation (TONMS-EFE) using the strength of universal approximation capabilities of Legendre polynomials based Legendre neural networks supported with optimization power of the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Nelder-Mead (NM) algorithm. Unsupervised error functions are constructed in terms of mean square error for governing TONMS-EF equations of first and second order. Unknown designed parameters in LeNN structure are optimized initially by WOA for global search while NM algorithm further enhances the rapid local search convergence. The proposed algorithm's objective is to show the accuracy and robustness in solving challenging problems like TONMS-EFE. To study our designed scheme's performance and effectiveness, LeNN-WOA-NM is implemented on four cases of TONMS-EFE. The results obtained by the proposed algorithm are compared with the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, Cuckoo search algorithm (CSA), and WOA. Extensive graphical and statistical analysis for fitness value, absolute errors, and performance indicators in terms of mean, median, and standard deviations show the proposed algorithm's efficiency and accuracy.
