About this book
This contributed book focuses on optimization methods inspired by nature such as Harmony Search Algorithm, Drosophila Food-Search Algorithm, Cohort intelligence algorithm and its variations, fuzzy logic along with their hybridization variants. It also focuses on multi-objective optimization algorithms such as Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm, Particle Swarm Optimization, Evolutionary Algorithm, Pareto Envelope Selection Algorithm, and Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm. The content focuses on topics such as the optimal design of truss systems with various applications, the design and simulation of quarter car systems for comfort design, the road handling design and a balanced system, and topology optimization of 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional structure in linear elasticity, plasticity and fracture mechanics among others. This book is a useful reference for those in academia and industry.
