چکیده

The study presents the simultaneous cost, topology and standard cross-section optimization of single storey industrial steel building structures. The considered structures are consisted from main portal frames, which are mutually connected with purlins. The optimization is performed by the Genetic algorithm (GA) approach. The proposed algorithm minimizes the structure’s material and labour costs, determines the optimal topology with the optimal number of portal frames and purlins as well as the optimal standard cross-sections of steel members. Keywords— Portal frames, Genetic algorithm, Optimization

A Multi-Mode Resource-Constrained Optimization of Time-Cost Trade-off Problems in Project Scheduling Using a Genetic Algorithm

In this paper, we present a genetic algorithm (GA) for optimization of a multi-mode resource constrained time cost trade off (MRCTCT) problem. The proposed GA, each activity has several operational modes and each mode identifies a possible executive time and cost of the activity. Beyond earlier studies on time-cost trade-off problem, in MRCTCT problem, resource requirements of each execution mo...

Genetic Algorithm-Based Optimization Approach for an Uncapacitated Single Allocation P-hub Center Problem with more realistic cost structure

A p-hub center network design problem is definition of some nodes as hubs and allocation of non-hub nodes to them wherein the maximum travel times between any pair of nodes is minimized. The distinctive feature of this study is proposing a new mathematical formulation for modeling costs in a p-hub center problem. Here, instead of considering costs as a linear function of distance, for the first...

Optimization of Cutting Parameters Based on Production Time Using Colonial Competitive (CC) and Genetic (G) Algorithms

A properly designed machining procedure can significantly affect the efficiency of the production lines. To minimize the cost of machining process as well as increasing the quality of products, cutting parameters must permit the reduction of cutting time and cost to the lowest possible levels. To achieve this, cutting parameters must be kept in the optimal range. This is a non-linear optimizati...
