Beschreibung:
<jats:p>Both the entire weight and joint displacements of grid structures are minimized at the same time in this study. Four multiobjective optimization algorithms, NSGAII, SPEAII, PESAII, and AbYSS are employed to perform computational procedures related to optimization processes. The design constraints related to serviceability and ultimate strength of grid structure are implemented from Load and Resistance Factor Design-American Institute of Steel Constructions (LRFD-AISC Ver.13). Hence, while the computational performances of these four optimization algorithms are compared using different combinations of optimizer-related parameters, the various strengths of grid members are also evaluated. For this purpose, multiobjective optimization algorithms (MOAs) employed are applied to the design optimization of three application examples and achieved to generate various optimal designations using different combinations of optimizer-related parameters. According to assessment of these optimal designations considering various quality indicators, IGD, HV, and spread, AbYSSS shows a better performance comparatively to the other three proposed MOAs, NSGAII, SPEAII, and PESAII.</jats:p>
