Engineering design optimization using chaotic enhanced charged system search algorithms

The charged system search as a recently developed meta-heuristic algorithm has been successfully utilized for optimum design of different examples. In addition, the fields of forces model provides a means to enhance the algorithm, and this results in the enhanced charged system search (ECSS). This paper utilizes positive features of the chaos in the ECSS algorithm to optimize engineering design problems. Simulation results and comparisons based on various well-known mechanical and engineering design problems show the efficiency of the present algorithm.
