CMPA integrates the exploration merits of the recently proposed Marine Predators Algorithm (MPA) with the chaotic maps exploitation capabilities. Several chaotic maps were applied in the proposed CMPA to govern MPA parameters that eventually led to controlled exploration and exploitation of search. This study makes an initial attempt to explore and employ CMPA in decoding complex and challenging design and manufacturing problems. For performance evaluation of the proposed algorithm, CEC 2020 numerical problems having different dimensions and five widely adopted constrained design problems were solved. For all problems, both qualitative and qualitative results are examined and discussed. Moreover, two case studies of multi pass turning were examined by the proposed CMPA algorithm to optimize the cutting operation with a minimum cost of production per unit objective. Furthermore, the suggested CMPA algorithm has been investigated for solving a real-world structural topology optimization problem. Statistical analysis is performed, and the results of CMPA are compared with twelve distinguished algorithms. Outcomes of the proposed variant algorithm on the benchmarks demonstrate its significantly improved performance relative to other optimizers including a variant of MPA and two state-of-the-art IEEE CEC competitions winners algorithms. Findings from the manufacturing process exhibit CMPA proficiency in solving arduous real-world design problems.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMultipass turning operationsHybrid genetic algorithmKrill herd algorithmSearch algorithmDispatch problemDesignColonyParametersMapsMarine predators algorithmChaotic mapsGlobal optimizationEngineering design problemsMetaheuristic algorithmsScience & technologyTechnologyComputer science, artificial intelligenceComputer scienceArticle00091505120000126110.1016/j.knosys.2022.1101921872-7409
