Abstract

En 中文
Optimizing a multi-objective structure is a challenging design problem that requires handling several competing goals and constraints. Despite their success in resolving such issues, metaheuristics can be difficult to apply due to their stochastic nature and restrictions. This work proposes the multi-objective crystal structure optimizer (MOCRY), a potent and effective optimizer, to address this problem. The MOCRY algorithm, also known as MOCRY2arc, is built on a two-archive idea centered on diversity and convergence, respectively. The efficacy of MOCRY2arc in solving five typical planar and spatial real-world structure optimization issues was assessed. Because of these problems, safety and size limits were put on discrete cross-sectional regions and component stress. At the same time, different goals were being pursued, such as making nodal points bend more and reducing the mass of trusses. Four recognized standard evaluators-Hypervolume (HV), Generational-Inverted Generational Distance (GD, IGD), Spacing to Extent Metrics (STE), convergence, and diversity plots-were utilized to compare the results with those of nine sophisticated optimization techniques, including MOCRY and NSGA-II. Moreover, the Friedman rank test and comparison analysis showed that MOCRY2arc performed better at resolving big structure optimization issues in a shorter amount of computing time. In addition to identifying and realizing effective Pareto-optimal sets, the recommended method produced strong variety and convergence in the objective and choice spaces. As a result, MOCRY2arc may be a useful tool for handling challenging multi-objective structure optimization issues.
