harmony search based algorithms for the optimum cost design of reinforced concrete cantilever retaining walls
cost optimization of the reinforced concrete cantilever soil retaining wall of a given height satisfying some structural and geotechnical design constraints is performed utilizing harmony search and improved harmony search algorithms. the objective function considered is the cost of the structure, and design is based on aci 318-05. this function is minimized subjected to design constraints. a n...
متن کاملOptimum Design of Scallop Domes for Dynamic Time History Loading by Harmony Search-Firefly Algorithm
This paper presents an efficient meta-heuristic algorithm for optimization of double-layer scallop domes subjected to earthquake loading. The optimization is performed by a combination of harmony search (HS) and firefly algorithm (FA). This new algorithm is called harmony search firefly algorithm (HSFA). The optimization task is achieved by taking into account geometrical and material nonlinear...
متن کاملOPTIMUM COST DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE SLABS USING CUCKOO SEARCH OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM
This paper presents a Cuckoo Optimization Algorithm (COA) model for the cost optimization of the one-way and two-way reinforced concrete (RC) slabs according to ACI code. The objective function is the total cost of the slabs including the cost of the concrete and that of the reinforcing steel. In this paper, One-way and two-way slabs with various end conditions are formulated as ACI code. The t...
متن کاملHybrid Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization and Harmony Search for Optimum Design of Space Trusses
The Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm is a new meta-heuristic algorithm which recently received more attention in various fields of science. The TLBO algorithm divided into two phases: Teacher phase and student phase; In the first phase a teacher tries to teach the student to improve the class level, then in the second phase, students increase their level by interacting amon...
متن کاملOptimum Detailing Design of Reinforced Concrete Plane Frames to ACI 318-05 using the Harmony Search Algorithm
This paper presents the application of the harmony search based algorithm to the optimum detailed design of special seismic moment reinforced concrete (RC) frames under earthquake loads based on American Standard specifications. The objective function is selected as the total cost of the frame which includes the cost of concrete, formwork and reinforcing steel for individual members of the fram...
