Abstract

In the last decades huristic algorithms optimization are used in various fiels of science and
engineering problems. Most of these methods are inspired by natural phenomena, such as
biological behaviors or physical principles. In this paper, a new optimization method based on
the dynamic of sliding motion along a frictionless inclined plane is introduced. In the proposed
algorithm, a collection of agents cooperate with each other and move toward better positions in
the search space by employing Newton’s second law and equations of motion. Our method is
compared with other popular optimization algorithms and the results on 23 standard
benchmark functions show its effectiveness in most cases.
