Optimizing Engineering Problems through Heuristic TechniquesAuthor(s): Kaushik Kumar, Divya Zindani, J. Paulo Davim\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: CRC Press\nISBN-13: 9781138485365, 978-1138485365\nSynopsis\nThis book will cover heuristic optimization techniques and applications in engineering problems. The book will be divided into three sections that will provide coverage of the techniques, which can be employed by engineers, researchers, and manufacturing industries, to improve their productivity with the sole motive of socio-economic development. This will be the first book in the category of heuristic techniques with relevance to engineering problems and achieving optimal solutions.\n\nFeatures\n\nExplains the concept of optimization and the relevance of using heuristic techniques for optimal solutions in engineering problems \nIllustrates the various heuristics techniques \nDescribes evolutionary heuristic techniques like genetis
