A methodology has been developed for the approximation model building using genetic programming. It is implemented in a computer code introducing two new features: the use of design sensitivity information when available, and the allocation and evaluation of tuning parameters in separation from the evolutionary process. A combination of a genetic algorithm and a gradient-based algorithm is used for tuning of the approximation functions. The problem of the choice of a design of experiments in the response surface methodology has been reviewed and a space-filling plan adopted.
The developed methodology and software have been applied to design optimization problems with numerically simulated and experimental responses, demonstrating their considerable potential. The applications cover the approximation of a response function obtained by a finite element model for the detection of damage in steel frames, the creation of an empirical model for the prediction of the shear strength in concrete deep beams and a multicriteria optimization of the process of calcination of Roman cement.",
