TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF SPACE STRUCTURES USING ANT COLONY METHOD
In this article, the ant colony method is utilized for topology optimization of space structures. Strain energy of the structure is minimized while the material volume is limited to a certain amount. In other words, the stiffest possible structure is sought when certain given materials are used. In addition, a noise cleaning technique is addressed to prevent undesirable members in optimum topol...
متن کاملReliability optimization using multiobjective ant colony system approaches
The multiobjective Ant Colony System (ACS) meta-heuristic has been developed successfully to provide a solution for the reliability optimization problems of series-parallel system and has been demonstrated its application to the reliability design of gear box. The problems involve the selection of components with multiple choice and redundancy levels that produce maximum benefits, and are subje...
متن کاملAnt Colony Optimization Method Applied to Distribution Network Reconfiguration
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a meta-heuristic iterative algorithm used to solve different combinatorial optimization problems. In this method, a number of artificial ants build solutions for an optimization problem and exchange information on their quality through a communication scheme that is similar to the one adopted by real ants. In this paper, Ant Colony Optimization is used to solve ...
متن کاملAnt Colony Optimization Applied to Minimum Weight Dominating Set Problem
In this paper we present an application of ant colony optimization (ACO) to the Minimum Weighted Dominating Set Problem. We introduce a heuristic for this problem that takes into account the weights of vertexes being covered and show that it is more efficient than the greedy algorithm using the standard heuristic. Further we give implementation details of ACO applied to this problem. We tested ...
متن کاملAnt Colony Optimization applied to the Multi-Agent Patrolling Problem
Patrolling an environment involves a team of agents whose goal usually consists of continuously visiting its most relevant areas as frequently as possible. For such a task, agents have to coordinate their actions in order to achieve optimal performance. Current research that tackles this complex multi-agent problem usually de nes the environment as a graph, so that a wide range of applications ...
