In this paper a new and efficient metaheuristic algorithm is proposed for discrete performance-based seismic design optimization of steel moment frames. The proposed metaheuristic uses the Newton gradient-based method as its updating scheme in a population-based framework and therefore it is termed as Newton Metaheuristic Algorithm (NMA). In order to enable the NMA to effectively explore the discrete design space, a term containing the best solution found is added to the basic updating rule of the algorithm. In addition, a simple and efficient method is proposed in order to establish a balance between local and global search abilities of the proposed algorithm. The efficiency of the NMA is illustrated by presenting two benchmark discrete truss optimization problems. Moreover, three steel moment frames are optimized in the framework of performance-based design by the NMA and the results are compared with those of some recent metaheuristics. The performance of the algorithms is analyzed using statistical parametric and non-parametric tests indicating that NMA outperforms the other algorithms in literature. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd.
