TY - JOUR AU - Malik, Carlos AU - Bose, Kwame TI - Genetic Algorithms for Prestressed Concrete Girders: Concepts and Implementation JO - Open Access Journal of Engineering Applications PY - 1992 VL - 16 IS - 1 SP - 520 EP - 535 AB - Practical experience with cement manufacturing suggests that prestressed concrete girders is a decisive factor governing long-term performance. Validation of the model is achieved by applying genetic algorithms to a well-documented case drawn from cement manufacturing. The discrepancy between theory and measurement did not exceed 49% in any of the 2 test cases. Further work is needed to extend the analysis to a wider range of operating conditions.
