Improvements and Applications of Group Search Optimizer in Structural Optimal Design
Abstract This chapter introduces the improvement and application of swarm algorithm named Group Search Optimizer (GSO) in civil structure optimization design. GSO is a new and robust stochastic searching optimizer, as it is based on PS (produce and scrounger) model and the animal scanning mechanisms. An improved group search optimizer named IGSO was presented based on harmony search mechanism and GSO. The implementation of IGSO for different optimal purposes is presented in detail, including the application of IGSO to truss structure shape optimal design, to truss structure dynamic optimal design, to truss structure topology optimization design. Different truss structures are used to test the GSO and IGSO in structural shape optimization, dynamic optimization and topology optimization.
