OPTIMUM DESIGN OF SKELETAL STRUCTURES USING ANT LION OPTIMIZER
This paper utilizes recent optimization algorithm called Ant Lion Optimizer (ALO) for optimal design of skeletal structures. The ALO is based on the hunting mechanism of Antlions in nature. The random walk of ants, building traps, entrapment of ants in traps, catching preys, and re-building traps are main steps for this algorithm. The new algorithm is examined by designing three truss and frame...
متن کاملOPTIMUM DESIGN OF STRUCTURES USING AN IMPROVED FIREFLY ALGORITHM
Nature-inspired search algorithms have proved to be successful in solving real-world optimization problems. Firefly algorithm is a novel meta-heuristic algorithm which simulates the natural behavior of fireflies. In the present study, optimum design of truss structures with both sizing and geometry design variables is carried out using the firefly algorithm. Additionally, to improve the efficie...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
Optimum Design of Composite Plates under Thermal Buckling Loads using Imperialist Competitive Algorithm
Thermal buckling loads of laminated composite plates are maximized for a given total thickness. Fiber directions and relative thickness of layers are considered as design variables. Analysis of buckling temperature is carried out by using the finite element method, while the imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) is employed to optimize as many as seven variables for the different layered plat...
