Using such methods offers some advantages e.g. flexibility for coding, robustness, global optimisation capability, and a derivative-free feature. Moreover, unconventional design problems can be posed when using metaheuristics. This paper proposes a new hybrid algorithm, named HDEEO-LP, with a learning control parameter for aeroelastic optimisation. The new optimiser is obtained from hybridising differential evolution and the recently invented equilibrium optimisation, while a learning scheme for control parameter tuning is integrated. The new method is tested against a number of established and recently invented MHs, such as a grey wolf optimiser (GWO), a salp swarm algorithm (SSA), an equilibrium optimiser (EO), an artificial bee colony (ABC), teaching-learning based optimisation (TLBO), water cycle algorithm (WCA), self-adaptive spherical search algorithm (SASS) using the CEC-RW-2020 test suite and the Goland wing aeroelastic optimisation. The results reveal that the proposed hybrid algorithm is among the top performers.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessTruss optimizationAlgorithmCompositePerformanceElementSearchCodeSelf-adaptive optimisation algorithmOptimisation algorithmAeroelastic optimisationGoland wingFlutter speedMetaheuristicsScience & technologyTechnologyComputer science, artificial intelligenceComputer scienceArticle00078863330001523910.1016/j.knosys.2021.107955
