A new hybrid method to solve the multi-objective optimization problem for a composite hat-stiffened panel
Résumé
In this paper we present a new hybrid meta heuristic by combining Multi-objective bat algorithm (MOBA) and variable neigh- borhood search (VNS). The hybrid meta heuristic is coupled with re- sponse surface methodology (or meta modeling) to solve the mechanical multi-objective optimization problem of hat sti ened composite panel. The optimization criteria were the weight and the rigidity of the panel. Experimental results show that our suggested approach is quite e ective, as it provides solutions that are competitive with the results obtained by using MOBA alone.
