Mix design optimization of concrete containing fly ash and slag for global warming potential and cost reduction

Mix design optimization is challenging because the properties of concrete depend on both the chemical and physical properties of the components and their relative proportions.In this paper a mix design optimization approach based on the application of artificial intelligence, genetic algorithm optimisation, life-cycle assessment to quantify global
