Load Distribution Calculation of Pile Group Using Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC) is a newly swarm intelligence optimization algorithm. It has become a powerful tool for solving highly nonlinear multi-peak optimization problems. The results of performances testing using three benchmark functions show that the numbers of evaluation for fitness function of ABC are obviously less than that using particle swarm optimization algorithm. Thus, ABC has better suitability for solving multi-modal optimization problems. Finally, ABC algorithm is applied to the load distribution calculation of pile group. The result shows that the ABC is feasible and has the advantages of high efficiency and easy implementation
