摘要：

The objective of design optimization of pressure vessels is cost reduction by reducing weight with adequate strength and stiffness. Optimization is the act of obtaining the best result under given circumstances. Conventional design aims at finding acceptability design which merely satisfies the functional and other requirements of the problem. In general, there will be more than one acceptable designs and the purpose of design optimization is to choose the best. In the present work parameters such as thickness of the shell, and dish end, length and radius of the pressure vessel are optimized by making use of ACO has been shown for a Pressure vessel problem with four variables and four design constraints. It is found that the results obtained from ACO are better as its search is for global optimum as against the local optimum in traditional search methods. The results of the ACO have been checked using ANSYS, and it is found to perform satisfactorily.
