AN EFFICIENT HYBRID ALGORITHM BASED ON PARTICLE SWARM AND SIMULATED ANNEALING FOR OPTIMAL DESIGN OF SPACE TRUSSES
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper, an efficient optimization algorithm is proposed based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Simulated Annealing (SA) to optimize truss structures. The proposed algorithm utilizes the PSO for finding high fitness regions in the search space and the SA is used to perform further investigation in these regions. This strategy helps to use of information obtained by swarm in an optimal manner and to direct the agents toward the best regions, resulting in possible reduction of the number of particles. To show the computational advantages of the new PSO-SA method, some benchmark numerical examples are studied. The PSO-SA algorithm converges to better or at least the same solutions, while the number of structural analyses is significantly reduced

full textA hybrid algorithm based on particle swarm optimization and simulated annealing for a periodic job shop scheduling problem
Generating schedules such that all operations are repeated every constant period of time is as important as generating schedules with minimum delays in all cases where a known discipline is desired or obligated by stakeholders. In this paper, a periodic job shop scheduling problem (PJSSP) based on the periodic event scheduling problem (PESP) is presented, which deviates from the cyclic scheduli...
full textA Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization – Simulated Annealing Algorithm for the Probabilistic Travelling Salesman Problem
The Probabilistic Traveling Salesman Problem (PTSP) is a variation of the well known Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). This problem arises when the information about customers demand is not available at the moment of the tour generation and/or the tour re-calculating cost is too elevated. In this article, a Hybrid Algorithm combining Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Simulated Annealing (SA...
