چکیده
An improved harmony search algorithm for constrained multi-objective optimization problems is proposed in this paper. Inspired by Particle Swarm Optimization, an inductor particle is introduced to speed up the convergence rate of the CMOHS. Two populations are adopted to increase the opportunity of finding the optimal solutions. Numerical experiments are divided into two parts: the first one compares the CMOHS with NSGA-II, and the other one compares the CMOHS with the algorithm without the inductor individual. The results show that the CMOHS is more effective than NSGA-II, and the induction mechanism improved the convergence and diversity of the algorithm.

Optimization of Thermal Instability Resistance of FG Flat Structures using an Improved Multi-objective Harmony Search Algorithm
This paper presents a clear monograph on the optimization of thermal instability resistance of the FG (functionally graded) flat structures. For this aim, two FG flat structures, namely an FG beam and an FG circular plate, are considered. These structures are assumed to obey the first-order shear deformation theory, three-parameters power-law distribution of the constituents, and clamped bounda...

Many optimization techniques have been proposed since the inception of engineering optimization in 1960s. Traditional mathematical modeling-based approaches are incompetent to solve the engineering optimization problems, as these problems have complex system that involves large number of design variables as well as equality or inequality constraints. In order to overcome the various difficultie...
