Mine blast algorithm: A new population based algorithm for solving constrained engineering optimization problems

A hybrid SA-MFO algorithm for function optimization and engineering design problems

“…The detailed description of the adopted engineering problem is presented in Appendix 2. Table 7 presents the optimal solution for three-bar truss design problem obtained by particle swarm optimization with differential evolution (PSODE) [20], dynamic stochastic selection (DEDS) [42], mine blast algorithm (MBA) [29], water cycle algorithm (WCA) [6], MFO and SA-MFO. As it can be seen from this table, SA-MFO obtained better results compared with the standard MFO.…”

A Cuckoo Search Algorithm with Complex Local Search Method for Solving Engineering Structural Optimization Problem

“…The design optimization problem involves three continuous variables and four nonlinear inequality constraints. This problem has already been solved by many researchers, including He and Wang [14],who proposed hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO), Zhang et al [13],who used differential evolution with dynamic stochastic selection algorithm (DEDS) , Wang and Li [12], who proposed differential evolution with level comparison algorithm(DELC), Sadollah et al [15], who employed a mine blast algorithm(MBA), Wen et al [5], who used effective hybrid cuckoo search(HCS -LSAL), and Yang [2], who applied a cuckoo search algorithm(CS).The best solutions obtained by the above mentioned approaches are shown in Table 2.Their statistical results are shown in table 3.…”

The exploration phase investigates the different promising regions in a search space, whereas exploitation searches the close global optimal solutions around the promising regions [31,32].…”
