Genetic algorithms (GAs), a form of evolutionary computing, have been applied to the design of concert halls. The application of a GA to a system for optimizing a concert hall in terms of four orthogonal factors of a sound field is discussed. The first model was an optimization of the proportions of

A regional genetic algorithm (R-GA) is used for the discrete optimal design of truss structures. The chromosomes are selected from a sub-region centred on the continuous optimum. This approach replaces genetic rebirth as previously proposed by other authors, thereby signiÿcantly reducing computation
In the majority of aerospace structures, vibration transmission problems are dealt with by the application of heavy, viscoelastic damping materials. More recently, interest has focussed on using active vibration control methods to reduce noise transmission. This paper examines a third, and potential
