Abstract

The paper presents optimization of sliding hydraulic steel gates Tunnel intake bulkheads, erected in Sultartangi Hydroelectric Project, Iceland. The gates have been optimised by the Mixed-Integer Non-Linear Programming optimization approach (MINLP). The MINLP optimization approach to structural synthesis is performed through three steps: i.e. the generation of a mechanical superstructure, the modelling of an MINLP model formulation and the solution of the defined MINLP problem. As the discrete/continuous optimization problem of the gates is non-convex and highly non-linear, the Modified Ou
