Description:
The purpose of this document is to describe Multi-Objective Tabu
Search 2 (MOTS2), which is a native mutli-objective optimiser. It
has been developed to tackle a variety of real-world problems of engineering
interest. The design and implementation are presented, followed
by verification, validation and user instructions. At a glance,
it involves introduction to the algorithm, explains configuration settings
and structure, and results interpretation. Then, the optimiser
is tested against a series of mathematical test functions in order to
verify its functionality. The main goal is to demonstrate and assess
the performance and applicability of the optimiser. The next step is to
use MOTS2 on a real-world case, where the performance of optimising
a 2D airfoil is validated and illustrated.
