Abstract

Metaheuristic algorithms are often preferred for solving constrained engineering design optimization problems. The most important reason for choosing these algorithms is that they guarantee a satisfactory response within a reasonable time. The swarm intelligence-based manta ray foraging optimization algorithm (MRFO) is a metaheuristic algorithm proposed to solve engineering applications. In this study, the performance of MRFO is evaluated on 19 mechanical engineering optimization problems in the CEC2020 real-world constrained optimization problem suite. In order to increase the MRFO performance, three modifications are made to the algorithm; in this way, the enhanced manta ray foraging optimization (EMRFO) algorithm is proposed. The effects of the modifications made are analyzed and interpreted separately. Its performance has been compared with the algorithms in the literature, and it has been shown that EMRFO is a successful and preferable algorithm for this problem suite.
