The utilization of a specific priority rule in scheduling operations flexible job shop systems strongly influences production goals. In context control real practice, performance indicators are evaluated always en bloc. This paper addresses the multi-criteria evaluating five selected conflicting objectives via scalar simulation-based optimization related to applied rule. It is connected discret...

Many researches have focused on the optimal design of tuned mass damper (TMD) system without the effect of soil–structure interaction (SSI), so that ignoring the effect of SSI may lead to an undesirable and unrealistic design of TMD. Furthermore, many optimization criteria have been proposed for the optinal design of the TMD system. Hence, the main aim of this study is to compare different opti...

In this paper, we present a generic method/model for multi-objective design optimization of laminated composite components, based on Vector Evaluated Artificial Bee Colony (VEABC) algorithm. VEABC is a parallel vector evaluated type, swarm intelligence multi-objective variant of the Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (ABC). In the current work a modified version of VEABC algorithm for discrete var...
