Shuffled frog-leaping algorithm: a memetic meta-heuristic for discrete optimization

Muzaffar Eusuff, Kevin Lansey, Fayzul Pasha · 17 Feb 2006

A memetic meta-heuristic called the shuffled frog-leaping algorithm (SFLA) has been developed for solving combinatorial optimization problems. The SFLA is a population-based cooperative search metaphor inspired by natural memetics. The algorithm contains elements of local search and global information exchange. The SFLA consists of a set of interacting virtual population of frogs partitioned into different…

Flower pollination algorithm: A novel approach for multiobjective optimization

Xin‐She Yang, Mehmet Karamanoglu, Xingshi He · 4 Oct 2013

Multiobjective design optimization problems require multiobjective optimization techniques to solve, and it is often very challenging to obtain high-quality Pareto fronts accurately. In this article, the recently developed flower pollination algorithm (FPA) is extended to solve multiobjective optimization problems. The proposed method is used to solve a set of multiobjective test functions and two bi-objective…

Optimal cost design of water distribution networks using harmony search

Zong Woo Geem · 1 Apr 2006

This study presents a cost minimization model for the design of water distribution networks. The model uses a recently developed harmony search optimization algorithm while satisfying all the design constraints. The harmony search algorithm mimics a jazz improvisation process in order to find better design solutions, in this case pipe diameters in a water distribution…

An improved particle swarm optimizer for mechanical design optimization problems

Suining He, Emmanuel Prempain, Qinghua Wu · 13 Aug 2004

Abstract This paper presents an improved particle swarm optimizer (PSO) for solving mechanical design optimization problems involving problem-specific constraints and mixed variables such as integer, discrete and continuous variables. A constraint handling method called the ‘fly-back mechanism’ is introduced to maintain a feasible population. The standard PSO algorithm is also extended to handle mixed variables…

A Swarm Metaphor for Multiobjective Design Optimization

Tapabrata Ray, K.M. Liew · 1 Jan 2002

This paper presents a new optimization algorithm to solve multiobjective design optimization problems based on behavioral concepts similar to that of a real swarm. The individuals of a swarm update their flying direction through communication with their neighboring leaders with an aim to collectively attain a common goal. The success of the swarm is attributed…

Engineering Optimization template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Engineering Optimization format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Engineering Optimization template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Taylor & Francis format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Engineering Optimization use?
Engineering Optimization uses Author–year (Chicago, T&F) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Engineering Optimization 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Engineering Optimization?
No. DocuGuru generates the interact LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Taylor & Francis-ready Engineering Optimization document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Engineering Optimization template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Engineering Optimization format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Engineering Optimization?
Engineering Optimization is a multidisciplinary journal published by Taylor & Francis. DocuGuru's Engineering Optimization template matches Taylor & Francis's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Engineering Optimization PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Engineering Optimization template (the interact class) that is ready to submit to Taylor & Francis, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Engineering Optimization template cost?
You can start writing in the Engineering Optimization template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Engineering Optimization PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
