Optimal Testing Locations in Geotechnical Site Investigations through the Application of a Genetic Algorithm

Geotechnical site investigations are an essential prerequisite for reliable foundation designs. However, there is relatively little quantitative guidance for planning optimal investigations, including the choice of testing location. This study uses a genetic algorithm to find the ideal testing locat...
