- Abstract
An improved version of the charged system search (CSS) algorithm is introduced which is called magnetic charged system search (MCSS). In the new algorithm, magnetic forces are considered in addition to electrical forces, using the Biot-Savart law. Each charged particle (CP), as a search agent, exerts magnetic forces on other CPs based on the variation of its objective function value during its last movement and its distance between other CPs. This additional force provides useful information for the optimization process and enhances the performance of the CSS algorithm. The efficiency of the MCSS is examined by application of this algorithm to well-known mathematical benchmarks and three well-studied engineering design problems. The results are compared to those of the CSS, and the improvements are highlighted.
