Abstract

The Imperialist Competitive Algorithm (ICA) is used in optimal design of a thin resistant interphase layer for several temperature distributions on a specimen. In applications of interphase layers, the components of thickness and heat source are very important and they are assigned as multi-objective optimization design functions. The results of ICA are then compared with Finite Element Method (FEM) and another optimization method, the Genetic Algorithm (GA). The ICA results show good performance in optimal design of thin adhesive layers.
