Engineering design problems are often multi-objective in nature, which means trade-offs are
required between conflicting objectives. In this study, we examine the multi-objective …

Robust optimization is an ideal solution for enhancing safety in tunnel construction in the
presence of unpredictable soil conditions, especially in large-diameter tunnel construction …

For designing of pavements, California Bearing Ratio (CBR) value is an important parameter
which is used to determine the strength of the subgrade soils. However, it is to be mentioned …

There are two general methods of robust design optimization (RDO) and reliability-based
robust design optimization (RBRDO) for the optimal design of structures with non …

Abstract California Bearing Ratio method is an empirical method of design of flexible
pavement developed by California Division of Highways, in 1928 for the design of …

Probabilistic risk assessment can be used for determining a design with a residual risk that
is As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP). Existing risk-based design approaches …

To optimize the outdoor thermal comfort and sunlight hours of elderly residential areas in
cold regions of China, we collected data on streets and building forms from 121 elderly …

To improve the comprehensive structural performance and optimize the structural quality of
the aluminum alloy subway car body, a multi-objective structural optimization method based …

Purpose This study aims to research the influence of non-probabilistic design variables on
interval robust optimization of electric multiple units (EMU) brake module, therefore obtain …

A robust design optimization (RDO) of rail bridge hollow pier (RBHP) under uncertainty is
explored in the present paper. Uncertainty information about such structural system is often …
