ALE-PSO: An Adaptive Swarm Algorithm to Solve Design Problems of Laminates

This paper presents an adaptive PSO algorithm whose numerical parameters can be updated following a scheduled protocol respecting some known criteria of convergence in order to enhance the chances to reach the global optimum of a hard combinatorial optimization problem, such those encountered in glo...
