This book introduces an auto-design-based optimization for building frames using an artificial neural networks (ANN)-based Lagrange method and genetic algorithms (GAs), and consistent with codes of practice. It is heavily illustrated with color figures and tables.
List of contents
1. Introduction to optimizations of structural frames. 2. An auto-design for optimizing RC frames using the ANN-based Hong-Lagrange algorithm. 3. An auto-design for optimizing prestressed frames using the ANN-based Hong-Lagrange algorithm. 4. An auto-design for optimizing steel frames using the ANN-based Hong-Lagrange algorithm. 5. A new GA using mutations with dynamic ranges and a probability-based natural selection method to optimize precast beams. 6. AI-based optimizations of RC and PT frames (AI-FRT) using penalty-based genetic algorithm with probabilistic-based natural selections (PPD-GA) using dynamic mutations.
