Linkages have been widely used in machines and deployable structures, but these mechanisms have rarely been employed in the design of movable bridges. This paper explores the use of linkages both to actuate the kinematic ...
This paper describes one approach to the design of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge piers, using a three-hybrid multiobjective simulated annealing (SA) algorithm with a neighborhood move based on the mutation operator from ...
Multi-objective optimisation problems have seen a large impulse in the last decades. Many new techniques for solving distinct variants of multi-objective problems have been proposed. Production scheduling, as with other ...
In this paper, we consider the transportation planning decision (TPD) problem with fuzzy goals, available supply and forecast demand. An interactive method is designed for solving the multi-objective TPD problem where the ...
