| Abstract | The structure optimization of main beam is a nonlinear constrained optimization problem, which is important for bridge crane to save manufacturing cost on quality assurance. The modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO) with feasibility-based rules [1], which was advanced to solve mixed-variable optimization problems, is proposed to optimize the structure of main beam in order to find the optimal parameters so as to make minimize the deadweight of main beam. The comparison results with the enumeration algorithm illustrated that MPSO can get best optimal solutions in much less calculation numbers. |
