This study is concerned with encoding types such as value encoding and binary encoding
for continuous and discrete optimization with a GA, which is coded in FORTRAN and …

In this study, a new meta-heuristic algorithm called teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO)
is used for the size and shape optimization of structures. The TLBO algorithm is based …

Overall cost optimization of Prestressed Concrete (PC) bridges is investigated in this study.
The purpose of this study is to determine the optimum span number and optimum cross-…

There are about 10000 bird species in the world. From the poles to the equatorial forests,
from the deserts to the centres of the oceans, from the highest mountains to the hearts of our …

The purpose of this study is to optimize the topology and shape of prestressed concrete bridge
girders. An optimum design approach that uses a genetic algorithm (GA) for this purpose …

The purpose of this paper is to apply the modified Vlasov model to the free vibration analysis
of beams resting on elastic foundations and to analyze the effects of the subsoil depth, the …

The Structure-Soil-Structure Interaction (SSSI) phenomenon between the neighbouring
structures has been interested lesser than Soil-Structure Interaction. However, in urban …

Different habitat types chosen from Kasnak Oak Forest Nature Reserve (Isparta, Turkey)

Birçok ülkenin mücadele ettiği ve ekonomideki önemli kavramlardan biri olan enflasyon, fiyatlar
genel düzeyindeki sürekli artışları ifade etmektedir. Ekonomide önemli yer tutan bir diğer …

In this study, the use of new alternatives of encoding types such as quaternary encoding
and octal encoding is reviewed along with that of binary and value encodings and how they …
