A new efficient optimization method, called ‘Teaching–Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO)’, is proposed in this paper for the optimization of mechanical design problems. This method works on the effect of influence of a teacher on learners. Like other nature-inspired algorithms, TLBO is also a population-based method and uses a population of solutions to proceed to the global solution. The popul...
