Parametric analysis for genetic algorithms handling parameters

In the present paper, Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) computing techniques have been used for economical studies that concern water distribution networks, such as, economical design of pipe network, parallel expansion, and pipe rehabilitation and maintenance. EAs are used because of capability of sear...
