Abstract
A micro-genetic algorithm (MGA) is one of the improved forms of a genetic algorithm. It is used to reduce the number of iterations and the computing resources required by using small populations. The efficiency of MGAs has been proved through many problems, especially problems with 3-5 design variables. This study proposes an optimization algorithm based on the sequential design of experiments (SDOE) and an MGA. In a previous study, the authors used the SDOE technique to reduce trial-and-error in the conventional approximate optimization method by using the statistical design of experiments (DOE) and response surface method (RSM) systematically. The proposed algorithm has been applied to various mathematical examples and a structural problem.
