Cost minimum proportioning of non-Slump concrete mix using genetic algorithms

This paper presents a generalized formulation for determining the optimal quantity of the materials used to produce Non-Slump Concrete with minimum possible cost. The proposed problem is formulated as a nonlinear constrained optimization problem. The proposed problem considers cost of the individual...
