Developments on Metaheuristic-Based Optimization in Structural Engineering
The purpose of this state-of-the-art review is to present the latest advances in design optimization and applications of metaheuristic algorithms in structural engineering. In the first part of this chapter, the importance of optimization in structural engineering and its differences with engineering problems are emphasized. Metaheuristic methods and the most appropriate techniques for various approaches are summarized and reviewed. These algorithms are effective in dealing with nonlinear design optimization with complex constraints, practical discrete design variables, and user-defined special conditions. Modifications of these algorithms have been made and applied to structural engineering applications. Finally, the results are presented with discussion about further potential improvements.
