This is the tool that implements the optimization algorithm and interfaces with the structural analysis software. There are many optimization software available, such as MATLAB, ANSYS, or Optistruct.

Optimization algorithms are powerful tools that can help you find the best solutions for your engineering design problems. However, there is no one-size-fits-all algorithm that works for every ...

Abstract: With multi-objective becoming more and more important, ant colony algorithm has become an ideal tool to solve multi-objective optimization problems because of its unique positive feedback ...

Optimization algorithms, which try to find the minimum values of mathematical functions, are everywhere in engineering. Among other things, they're used to evaluate design tradeoffs, to assess ...
