Effect of Objective Function on the Optimization of Highway Vertical Alignment by Means of Metaheuristic Algorithms
The main purpose of this work is the comparison of several objective functions for optimization of the vertical alignment. To this end, after formulation of optimum vertical alignment problem based on different constraints, the objective function was considered as four forms including: 1) the sum of the absolute value of variance between the vertical alignment and the existing ground; 2) the su...
متن کاملOptimal Design and Benefit/Cost Analysis of Reservoir Dams by Genetic Algorithms Case Study: Sonateh Dam, Kordistan Province, Iran
This paper presents a method concerning the integration of the benefit/cost analysis and the real genetic algorithm with various elements of reservoir dam design. The version 4.0 of HEC-RAS software and Hydro-Rout models have been used to simulate the region and flood routing in the reservoir of the dam, respectively. A mathematical programming has been prepared in MATLAB software and linked wi...
متن کاملOPTIMAL CONSTRAINED DESIGN OF STEEL STRUCTURES BY DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTIONARY ALGORITHMS
Structural optimization, when approached by conventional (gradient based) minimization algorithms presents several difficulties, mainly related to computational aspects for the huge number of nonlinear analyses required, that regard both Objective Functions (OFs) and Constraints. Moreover, from the early '80s to today's, Evolutionary Algorithms have been successfully developed and applied as a ...
متن کاملDesign of Digital Filters Using Genetic Algorithms †
In recent years, genetic algorithms began to be used in many disciplines such as pattern recognition, robotics, biology, and medicine to name just a few. These optimization algorithms are based on Darwins principle of natural selection which happens to be a slow process and, as a result, these algorithms tend to require a large amount of computation. However, they offer certain advantages as we...
متن کاملOptimal design of plant lighting system by genetic algorithms
A genetic algorithm technique is developed for the optimal design of a supplemental lighting system for greenhouse crop production. The approach uses the evolutionary parallel search capabilities of genetic algorithms to design the pattern layout of the lamps (luminaires), their mounting heights and their wattages. The total number and the exact positions of luminaires are not predefined (even ...
