چکیده
This paper introduces a deterministic method for capturing the Pareto front in multi-objective real parameter optimization problems. It is an effort to deal with multi-objective optimization problems that were until now confronted only by stochastic algorithms, specifically evolutionary algorithms. The method is based on a theoretical result that proves the equivalence of non-dominated points to extrema of functions produced by linear combinations of the multiple objectives. The proposed method is used in order to capture the solution set of a two-objective optimization problem posed by the design requirements of an I-Beam under certain geometric and strength constraints. Key-Words: multi-objective optimization, Pareto front, deterministic algorithms.

Multiobjective design of sewer networks
The sewer layout in flat areas significantly influences the construction and operational costs as well as reliability of the network performance. To find an optimum design of sewer networks for flat areas, this study presents a multi-objective optimization problem with the objective functions of 1- the cost and 2- the reliability. The reliability criterion is defined as the effect of a clogging...
متن کاملAn algorithm for approximating nondominated points of convex multiobjective optimization problems
In this paper, we present an algorithm for generating approximate nondominated points of a multiobjective optimization problem (MOP), where the constraints and the objective functions are convex. We provide outer and inner approximations of nondominated points and prove that inner approximations provide a set of approximate weakly nondominated points. The proposed algorithm can be appl...

Many real-world search and optimization problems involve inequality and/or equality constraints and are thus posed as constrained optimization problems. In trying to solve constrained optimization problems using classical optimization methods, this paper presents a Multi-Objective Bees Algorithm (MOBA) for solving the multi-objective optimal of mechanical engineering problems design. In the pre...
متن کاملBenson's algorithm for nonconvex multiobjective problems via nonsmooth Wolfe duality
In this paper, we propose an algorithm to obtain an approximation set of the (weakly) nondominated points of nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problems with equality and inequality constraints. We use an extension of the Wolfe duality to construct the separating hyperplane in Benson's outer algorithm for multiobjective programming problems with subdifferentiable functions. We also fo...
