The application discloses a ship cross section structure optimization method based on an improved bee colony
algorithm. First, the discrete structure model is converted into a
continuous optimization model based on a component
library index, thereby laying a foundation for application of the bee colony
algorithm. Secondly, in order to solve the
latitude explosion caused by high-dimensional optimization, a uniformized Logistic mapping is designed for component section size initialization, so as to improve the randomness and
ergodicity of the decision space. Since the bee colony
algorithm has the problem of being good at exploration but poor at exploitation, the individual goodness and algorithm degree are considered, and the dynamic leading bee search and follower following strategy are respectively reconstructed, so as to balance the search ability of the algorithm and enhance the optimization quality. Finally, based on the
section modulus sensitivity analysis, the continuous value obtained through iteration is normalized, so as to meet the actual
engineering requirements. The method can adaptively adjust the global search and local search tendency of each individual, improves the efficiency and result precision of the ship structure optimization, and has practical value.
