[abstract]

This paper deals with the identification of a generic Bouc-Wen hysteretic system. It utilizes the so-called Sawtooth Genetic Algorithm that combines variable population size and periodic partial reinitialization of the population. It is shown that, although the complexity of the problem is significant, the Sawtooth GA can rapidly provide very accurate results for engineering purposes.
