- Real ship structural design problems are usually characterized by presence of many conflicting objectives. Simultaneously, a complete definition of the optimum structural design requires a formulation of size-topology-shape-material optimization task unifying the optimization problems from the four areas and giving an effective solution of the problem. Any significant progress towards solving the problem has not been obtained so far. An objective of the present paper was to develop an evolutionary algorithm for multiobjective optimization of the structural elements of large spatial sections of ships. Selected elements of the multi-criteria optimization theory have been presented in detail. Methods for solution of the multi-criteria optimization problems have been discussed with the focus on the evolutionary optimization algorithms. In the paper an evolutionary algorithm where selection takes place based on the aggregated objective function combined with domination attributes as well as distance to the asymptotic solution, is proposed and applied to solve the problem of optimizing structural elements with respect to their weight and surface area for a high - speed vehicle-passenger catamaran structure, with taking into account several design variables such as plate thickness, scantlings of longitudinal stiffeners and transverse frames, and spacing between longitudinal and transversal members. Details of the computational models were kept at the level typical for conceptual design stage. Scantlings were analyzed by using the selected classification society rules. The results of numerical experiments with the use of the developed algorithm are presented. They show that the proposed genetic algorithm may be considered an efficient tool for multi-objective optimization of ship structures. The paper has been published in the three parts: Part I: Theoretical background on evolutionary multiobjective optimization, Part II: Computational simulations, and Part III: Analysis of the results.
