TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION OF PRETENSIONED CONCRETE BEAMS CONSIDERING MATERIAL NONLINEARITY
In this paper, the bi-directional evolutionary structural optimization (BESO) method is used to find optimal layouts of 3D prestressed concrete beams. Considering the element sensitivity number as the design variable, the mathematical formulation of topology optimization is developed based on the ABAQUS finite element software package. The surface-to-surface contact with a small sliding between...
متن کاملMulti-objective Optimization of Reinforced Concrete Frames
1. Abstract This paper presents a discrete optimization of reinforced concrete structures based on an efficient combination of deterministic and stochastic optimization strategies. The deterministic optimization algorithm is used for the detailing of a reinforced concrete crosssection for a given combination of internal forces. The multi-objective stochastic optimization algorithm is then appli...
متن کاملTopology Optimization of Strut-and-Tie Models in Non-Flexural Reinforced Concrete Members
This paper deals with the topology optimization of strut-and-tie models in non-flexural reinforced concrete members by using the Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) method for plane stress continuum structures with displacement constraints. By means of systematically removing elements that have less contribution to the stiffness from the discritized concrete member, the actual load paths...
متن کاملReliability evaluation of reinforced concrete beams
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the time-invariant reliability of reinforced concrete beams designed under the provisions of the ACI Building Code. A wide range of practical design situations is considered. The beams are subjected to bending, shear, and torsion. The interaction between shear and torsion is considered via an elliptical failure surface defined in the shear-torsion stress...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
