Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The Reliability-Redundancy Allocation Problem (RRAP) is a non-linear mixed-integer programming problem. It is essential to the design of any system and the enhancement of reliability. In this article, two metaheuristic techniques: Cuckoo-Search (CS) and a Hybrid of Grey-Wolf Optimization (GWO) and CS (HGWOCS) are proposed to address the reliability optimization of pharmaceutical plant. This plant illustrates RRAP to optimize reliability under designed constraints such as weight, cost, and volume. The GWO exploration ability and the CS exploitation ability are merged in this hybrid technique. These approaches are compared in terms of optimal solution and accuracy with each other results and previous literature. The statistical outcomes and convergence rate show the expected approach’s excellent performance. The final conclusion revealed that the proposed optimization algorithm can accurately enhance the reliability of the pharmaceutical plant.
