The proposed adaptive weighted sum Multiobjective optimization method focuses on unexplored regions by changing the weights adaptively rather than by using a priori weight Engineering design often deals with multiple, possibly selections and by specifying additional inequality con- conflicting, objective functions or design criteria.
