Design of reinforced concrete bridge frames by heuristic optimization
This paper deals with the economic optimization of reinforced concrete box frames used in road construction. It shows the efficiency of four heuristic algorithms applied to a problem of 50 design variables. Heuristic methods used are the random walk and the descent local search. The metaheuristic methods are the threshold accepting and the simulated annealing. The four methods have been applied...
متن کاملMulti-objective Optimization of Reinforced Concrete Frames
1. Abstract This paper presents a discrete optimization of reinforced concrete structures based on an efficient combination of deterministic and stochastic optimization strategies. The deterministic optimization algorithm is used for the detailing of a reinforced concrete crosssection for a given combination of internal forces. The multi-objective stochastic optimization algorithm is then appli...
متن کاملA COMBINATION OF PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION AND MULTI-CRITERION DECISION-MAKING FOR OPTIMUM DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMES
Structural design optimization usually deals with multiple conflicting objectives to obtain the minimum construction cost, minimum weight, and maximum safety of the final design. Therefore, finding the optimum design is hard and time-consuming for such problems. In this paper, we borrow the basic concept of multi-criterion decision-making and combine it with Particle Swarm Optimi...
متن کاملDesign Optimization of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Artificial Neural Network
–– This paper presents an Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) model for the cost optimization of simply supported beams designed according to the requirements of the ACI 318-08 code. The model formulation includes the cost of concrete, the cost of reinforcement and the cost of formwork. A simply supported beam was designed adopting variable cross sections, in order to demonstrate the model capabil...
متن کاملOPTIMUM DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMES USING BAT META-HEURISTIC ALGORITHM
The main aim of the present study is to achieve optimum design of reinforced concrete (RC) plane moment frames using bat algorithm (BA) which is a newly developed meta-heuristic optimization algorithm based on the echolocation behaviour of bats. The objective function is the total cost of the frame and the design constraints are checked during the optimization process based on ACI 318-08 code. ...
