Abstract:
This corrigendum is to include an acknowledgement section in the original version which was unintentionally omitted.
The acknowledgement should read as ‘‘The first author would like to acknowledge Dr. Ranjan Das, Assistant Professor, Department of
Mechanical Engineering, IIT Ropar, India since he had mentored the first author in learning optimization methods (simplex search method,
golden section search method, genetic algorithm and differential evolution) during 2013–2014.”
