Differential evolution optimization for the analysis of composite plates with radial basis collocation meshless method

Differential evolution for optimization of functionally graded beams

“…Loja et al used differential evolution to obtain a deflection profile minimization of magneto-electro-elastic composite structures [19]. Le-Anh et al used the finite element method and a variation of differential evolution to study folded laminated composite plates [20] and Roque and Martins used differential evolution to improve the meshless radial basis function method in the study of composite plates in bending [21].…”

Dynamic equations for solid isotropic radially functionally graded circular cylinders

“…Here, analytical or semi analytical vibrational studies are presented in [17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24] for Euler-Bernoulli, Timoshenko and higher order beam theories. Various numerical methods (finite element, meshless methods) have also bee adopted [25,26,27,28,29]. Among these works on beams only [15,20] consider beams with circular cross section, while the rest deal with beams of rectangular cross section.…”

A novel algorithm with differential evolution and coral reef optimization for extreme learning machine training

“…The reason that DE has been applied to a wild range of science and engineering (Roque and Martins 2015;Bhadra and Bandyopadhyay 2015;Hamedia et al 2015;Chena et al 2015;Atif and Al-Sulaiman 2015;Garcła-Domingo et al 2015;Sarkara et al 2015) is that it is simple and straightforward to be implemented, and that the parameters of DE which needed to be tuned manually are very few. However, it was pointed out that DE may get stuck at local optima for some problem (Ronkkonen et al 2005) and doesnt perform well on problems that are not linear separable (Langdon and Poli 2007).…”
