Metaheuristic optimization algorithms are strongly present in the literature on discrete optimization. They typically 1) use stochastic operators, making each run unique, and 2) often have algorithmic control parameters that have an unpredictable imp

Block walls, consisting of stacked unreinforced prefabricated concrete blocks, are commonly used for the construction of quay walls in the presence of rocky subgrades. A traditional design of block quay walls is based on manual design iterations, env

Whereas reticulated domes (i.e., domes composed of bars) are very material-efficient in general, the geodesic dome is claimed to be superior according to its patent holder, Richard Buckminster Fuller. Recent studies on the optimal design of reticulat

This paper presents optimization methods to design frame structures from a stock of existing elements. These methods are relevant when reusing structural elements over multiple service lives. Reuse has the potential to reduce the environmental impact

Single and double panels are commonly employed in noise control, e.g., as partitioning elements between rooms and to enclose noisy machines. In presence of narrowband disturbances, related for example to rotating machines, further improvements in sou

The cross-sectional shape of the metal studs in a double-leaf wall has a significant influence on its sound insulation. In a recent study, a numerical optimization of the stud shape resulted in designs that offer a significant increase in broadband a

Shell structures are material efficient structures capable of covering large spans with minimum weight. If concrete is used as the building material for the shell, it must be initially supported by a formwork. These generally rigid formworks, and the

The production and processing of building materials is responsible for a significant share of global greenhouse gas emissions. Nevertheless, in current building practice, a lot of material is wasted, because load-bearing structures are often grossly
