OPTIMAL DESIGN OF ARCH DAMS FOR FREQUENCY LIMITATIONS USING CHARGED SYSTEM SEARCH AND PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION
In recent years, the importance of economical considerations in the field of dam engineering has motivated many researchers to propose new methods for minimizing the cost of dames and in particular arch dams. This paper presents a method for shape optimization of double curvature arch dams corresponding to minimum construction cost while satisfying different constraints such as natural frequenc...
متن کاملIMPROVING COMPUTATIONAL EFFICIENCY OF PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION FOR OPTIMAL STRUCTURAL DESIGN
This paper attempts to improve the computational efficiency of the well known particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for tackling discrete sizing optimization problems of steel frame structures. It is generally known that, in structural design optimization applications, PSO entails enormously time-consuming structural analyses to locate an optimum solution. Hence, in the present study it i...
متن کاملLumen Effectiveness Multipliers For Outdoor Lighting Design
Perhaps one of the most fascinating and important subjects to be addressed in our industry over recent years is the effect of lamp spectral distribution on visibility. In the past, it has been widely accepted that under virtually all circumstances where artificial light is used, lighting level calculations could ignore spectral effects. In IESNA and CIE practice, recommended lighting levels do ...
متن کاملA Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Mixed-Variable Nonlinear Problems
Many engineering design problems involve a combination of both continuous anddiscrete variables. However, the number of studies scarcely exceeds a few on mixed-variableproblems. In this research Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is employed to solve mixedvariablenonlinear problems. PSO is an efficient method of dealing with nonlinear and non-convexoptimization problems. In this paper,...
متن کاملDiversified Particle Swarm Optimization for Hybrid Flowshop Scheduling
The aim of this paper is to propose a new particle swarm optimization algorithm to solve a hybrid flowshop scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times problem, which is of great importance in the industrial context. This algorithm is called diversified particle swarm optimization algorithm which is a generalization of particle swarm optimization algorithm and inspired by an anarchic society ...
