Neighborhood Hybrid Structure for the Optimization of Mechanical Properties of a Microalloyed Steel Based on Its Chemical Composition

This article presents the Iterated Local Search Algorithm (ILS) heuristic with a neighborhood hybrid structure, composed of four different types of adjacent structures. Their effectiveness was evaluated to maximize the micro alloyed steels mechanical strength. Tests show that ILS using a hybrid structure has better mechanical strength for the micralloyed steel due to its chemical composition.
