This book presents and applies a novel efficient meta-heuristic
optimization algorithm called Colliding Bodies Optimization (CBO)
for various optimization problems. The first part of the book
introduces the concepts and methods involved, while the second is
devoted to the applications. Though optimal design of structures is
the main topic, two chapters on optimal analysis and applications
in constructional management are also included. This algorithm is
based on one-dimensional collisions between bodies, with each agent
solution being considered as an object or body with mass. After a
collision of two moving bodies with specified masses and
velocities, these bodies again separate, with new velocities. This
collision causes the agents to move toward better positions in the
search space. The main algorithm (CBO) is internally parameter
independent, setting it apart from previously developed
meta-heuristics. This algorithm is enhanced (ECBO) for more
efficient applications in the optimal design of structures. The
algorithms are implemented in standard computer programming
languages (MATLAB and C++) and two main codes are provided for ease
of use.
