Water Evaporation Optimization

摘要: A novel physically inspired non-gradient algorithm is developed for solution of global optimization problems.The called Water Evaporation Optimization (WEO).WEO mimics the evaporation a tiny amount water molecules on solid surface with different wettability.WEO tested and analyzed in comparison to other existing methods three sets continuous test problems.17 benchmark unconstrained functions, 13 classical constraint 3 engineering problems are studied.The results indicate that proposed technique highly competitive metaheuristics. In this paper problems. The being (WEO) wettability which can be studied by molecular dynamics simulations. WEO problems, set 17 functions (consisting types functions: unimodal, multimodal, shifted rotated functions), reported specialized literature. obtained efficient well-known features used its potential implications real size constrained discussed details.
