In this study, teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm is employed for the first time for optimization of real world truss bridges. The objective function considered is the weight of the structure subjected to design constraints including internal stress within bar elements and serviceability (deflection). Two examples demonstrate the effectiveness of TLBO algorithm in optimizatio...

This paper presents a new version of Teaching Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm to find the optimal parameters of Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller. The proposed algorithm is an altered version of dynamic group strategy TLBO (DGS-TLBO) and is named as modified dynamic group based TLBO (MDG-TLBO) algorithm. The proposed algorithm is tested on 12 benchmark functions to...

In this study, to enhance the optimization process, especially in the structural engineering field two well-known algorithms are merged together in order to achieve an improved hybrid algorithm. These two algorithms are Teaching-Learning Based Optimization (TLBO) and Harmony Search (HS) which have been used by most researchers in varied fields of science. The hybridized algorithm is called A Di...

In this paper newly developed teaching-learning based optimization (TLBO) algorithm is applied for designing band pass (BP) and band stop (BS) digital IIR filters. TLBO is heuristic algorithm based on the social phenomenon of teaching-learning process. The effectiveness of purposed algorithm is validated by designing the BP and BS filters by approximating the magnitude response with Lp-norm err...
