Advances in Metaheuristic Algorithms for Optimal Design of Structures

Author: Ali Kaveh | Size: 14.3 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Original preprint | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2014 | pages: 433 | ISBN: 978-3-319-05548-0 & 978-3-319-05549-7

Recent advances in structural technology require greater accuracy, efficiency, and speed in design of structural systems. It is therefore not surprising that new methods have been developed for optimal design of real-life structures and models with complex configurations and a large number of elements.

This book can be considered as an application of metaheuristic algorithms to optimal design of skeletal structures. The present book is addressed to those scientists and engineers, and their students, who wish to explore the potential of newly developed metaheuristics. The concepts presented in this book are not only applicable to skeletal structures and finite element models but can equally be used for design of other systems such as hydraulic and electrical networks.

This book is likely to be of interest to civil, mechanical, and electrical engineers who use optimization methods for design, as well as to those students and researchers in structural optimization who will find it to be necessary professional reading.
