Description

Meta-heuristic algorithms are approximate algorithms that are used in situations where traditional optimization techniques cannot achieve acceptable results. Specifically, they are widely used to achieve optimum design of machine elements. Designing springs according to mini-mum weight or volume is one of the most basic problems in this field. In this study, a bio-inspired meta-heuristic Worm Optimization Algorithm (WOA) inspired by the contribution of worms to nature was used to solve the problem. The results obtained were compared with those obtained by other algorithms and it was seen that similar data was obtained recently. As a result, it was determined that this algorithm can be used for optimum design of mechanical structures
