BENCHMARKING SUCCESS: HOW MODERN METAHEURISTICS SOLVE COMPLEX ENGINEERING PROBLEMS?
Öz
Recent developments in metaheuristic optimization algorithms have yielded significant and noteworthy results. These metaheuristics can additionally be utilized to evaluate engineering design challenges. In this study, 5 metaheuristics developed in recent years (Artificial Rabbit Optimization-ARO, Black Widow Optimization-BWO, Prairie Dog Optimization-PDO, Mountain Gazelle OptimizationMGO and Crayfish Optimization Algorithm -COA) success in engineering design problems was compared. To the best of our knowledge, this work represents the first comprehensive evaluation of these five metaheuristic algorithms on six well-known engineering design optimization problems: Tension/Compression Spring, Pressure Vessel, Welded Beam, Speed Reducer, Gear Set, and Three-Bar Truss. Upon assessing the experimental outcomes and convergence speeds, it becomes evident that the metaheuristic techniques employed in this research demonstrate effective efficacy against the challenges presented. Based on the obtained results, ARO achieved the highest performance, followed sequentially by BWO, MGO, COA, and PDO. In upcoming research, the goal is to employ additional metaheuristic techniques, particularly ARO, to address various engineering challenges.
