In 2016, AlphaGo, an MCTS-based software agent, outperformed the human world champion of the board game Go. This game was for long considered almost infeasible for machines, due to its immense search space and the need for a long-term strategy. Since this historical success, MCTS is considered as an effective new approach for many other scientific and technical problems. Interestingly, civil structural engineering, as a discipline, offers many tasks whose solution may benefit from intelligent search and in particular from adopting MCTS as a search tool. In this work, we show how MCTS can be adapted to search for suitable solutions of a structural engineering design problem. The problem consists of choosing the load-bearing elements in a reference reinforced concrete structure, so to achieve a set of specific dynamic characteristics. In the paper, we report the results obtained by applying both a plain and a hybrid version of single-agent MCTS. The hybrid approach consists of an integration of both MCTS and classic Genetic Algorithm (GA), the latter also serving as a term of comparison for the results. The study's outcomes may open new perspectives for the adoption of MCTS as a design tool for civil engineers.}, language = {en} } @article{FoersterTillmannGerthsen1995, author = {F{\"o}rster, Arnold and Tillmann, K. and Gerthsen, D.}, title = {Morphological transformations of MBE-grown In0.6Ga0.4As island on GaAs(001) substrates / K.

The concentrator consists of a mirror array, which was created using the application builder. The mirror facets are preconfigured to form a focal point. During tracking all mirrors are moved simultaneously in a coupled mode by 2 motors in two axes, in order to keep the system in focus with the moving sun. Optical errors on each reflecting surface were implemented in combination with the solar angular cone of ± 4.65 mrad. As a result, the intercept factor of solar radiation that is available to the receiver was calculated as a function of the transversal and longitudinal angles of incidence. In addition, the intensity distribution on the receiver plane was calculated as a function of the incidence angles.}, language = {en} } @article{Pieper2011, author = {Pieper, Martin}, title = {Multiobjective optimization with expensive objectives applied to a thermodynamic material design problem}, series = {Proceedings in applied mathematics and mechanics : PAMM. 11 (2011), H. 1}, journal = {Proceedings in applied mathematics and mechanics : PAMM. 11 (2011), H. 1}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, isbn = {1617-7061}, pages = {733 -- 734}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{JungbluthBorchert2008, author = {Jungbluth, Christian and Borchert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {M{\"o}glichkeiten der Strompreisbeeinflussung im oligopolistischen Markt}, series = {ZNER Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Neues Energierecht}, journal = {ZNER Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Neues Energierecht}, number = {4}, pages = {314 -- 323}, year = {2008}, language = {de} } @article{NordaButenweg2011, author = {Norda, Hannah and Butenweg, Christoph}, title = {M{\"o}glichkeiten und Grenzen der Anwendbarkeit statisch nichtlinearer Verfahren nach DIN EN 1998-1}, series = {Bauingenieur : die richtungsweisende Zeitschrift im Bauingenieurswesen ; offizielle Zeitschrift der VDI-Gesellschaft Bautechnik.
