Topology Optimisation of Continuum Structures in Civil Engineering using Firefly Algorithm -III

Abstract

This paper is in continuation of the ongoing research work on topology optimization in structural engineering. Metaheuristics are widely used for structural optimization and firefly algorithm has been consistently giving better designs. In this paper, a few civil engineering structures are designed and analysed. The results were compared with those existing in the literature.
