Multiobjective optimization for transparent tunnel design

T. Tušar, E. Dovgan

The goal of the TOPP (Transparent design of optimal underground connections for smart cities using artificial intelligence technologies) project was to develop an advanced service for designing tunnels in urban environments. The service will facilitate the collaboration of all stakeholders by digitizing the tunnel design process and ensure transparency of final solution selection by providing a common user interface.

Within TOPP, our role as subcontractors was to provide support for solving the tunnel design optimization problem given a number of constraints. We were responsible for implementing optimization algorithms that offer a set of best trade-off solutions according to various objectives, such as costs, technical characteristics and environmental impacts.

The TOPP project was funded by the Republic of Slovenia and the European Union from the European Regional Development Fund and the XLAB and Elea iC companies.
