Özet

Design engineers may find various options of metaheuristic method in optimization of their problems. Because of the randomization nature of metaheuristic methods, solutions may trap to non-optimum solutions which are just optimums in a limited part of the selected range of the design variables. Generally, metaheuristics use sev-eral options to prevent this situation, but the same optimization process may solve different performances in every run of the process. Due to that, a comparative study by using ten different algorithms was done in this study. The optimization problem is the cost minimization of an L-shaped reinforced concrete (RC) retaining wall. The evaluation is done by conducting 30 multiple cycles of optimization,and comparing minimum cost, average cost and standard deviation values
