This chapter implements the particle-swarm-optimization method for finite-element-model updating. This method is tested on a simple beam and an unsymmetrical H-shaped structure and compared with a method that is based on a genetic-algorithm optimization technique. It is observed that, on average, the particle-swarm-optimization method gives a more accurately updated finite-element model than does the genetic-algorithm method.
