  Aqua Search – A New Metaheuristic Modified Firefly Algorithm for Topology Optimisation of Continuum Structures

  By K. N. V.Chandrasekhar, T. Muralidhara Rao, Sangu Swapna

  Abstract: Abstract The focus of the paper is to propose a new search algorithm which requires less computational effort to perform topology optimisation of continuum structures. The basic idea is based on performing underwater search operations by a group of divers in a school. This algorithm is named as Aqua Search (AS). The design domain here is compared to the water body. The AS algorithm is an improvement over the conventional …
