چکیده

The construction site layout (CSL) design presents a particularly interesting area of study because of its relatively high level of attention to usability qualities, in addition to common engineering objectives such as cost and performance. However, it is difficult combinatorial optimization problem for engineers. Swarm intelligence (SI) was very popular and widely used in many complex optimization problems which was collective behavior of social systems such as honey bees (bee algorithm, BA) and birds (particle swarm optimization, PSO). This study proposed an optimization hybrid swarm algorithm namely particle-bee algorithm (PBA) based on a particular intelligent behavior of honey bee and bird swarms by integrates theirs advantages. This study compares the performance of PBA with that of BA and PSO for hypothetical construction engineering of CSL problems. The results show that the performance of PBA is comparable to those of the mentioned algorithms and can be efficiently employed to solve those hypothetical CSL problems with high dimensionality.

Non-linear Fractional-Order Chaotic Systems Identification with Approximated Fractional-Order Derivative based on a Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization-Genetic Algorithm Method

Although many mathematicians have searched on the fractional calculus since many years ago, but its application in engineering, especially in modeling and control, does not have many antecedents. Since there are much freedom in choosing the order of differentiator and integrator in fractional calculus, it is possible to model the physical systems accurately. This paper deals with time-domain id...
