Design of Truss-Structures for Minimum Weight using Genetic Algorithms
Optimization of truss-structures for finding optimal cross-sectional size, topology, and configuration of 2-D and 3-D trusses to achieve minimum weight is carried out using real-coded genetic algorithms (GAs). All the above three optimization techniques have been made possible by using a novel representation scheme. Although the proposed GA uses a fixed-length vector of design variables represe...
متن کاملFIXED-WEIGHT EIGENVALUE OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSS STRUCTURES BY SWARM INTELLIGENT ALGORITHMS
Meta-heuristics have already received considerable attention in various engineering optimization fields. As one of the most rewarding tasks, eigenvalue optimization of truss structures is concerned in this study. In the proposed problem formulation the fundamental eigenvalue is to be maximized for a constant structural weight. The optimum is searched using Particle Swarm Optimization, PSO and i...
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...
Shape and size optimization of truss structures considering dynamic constraints through modern metaheuristic algorithms
Mass optimization on shape and sizing with multiple natural frequency constraints are highly nonlinear dynamic optimization problems. Multiple natural frequency constraints normally cause difficult dynamic sensitivity analysis and, in addition, two different types of design variables, nodal coordinates and crosssectional areas, often lead to divergence. Thus, the choice of the appropriated meth...
متن کاملWEIGHT OPTIMIZATION OF TRUSS STRUCTURES USING WATER CYCLE ALGORITHM
Water cycle algorithm (WCA) is a new metaheuristic algorithm which the fundamental concepts of WCA are derived from nature and are based on the observation of water cycle process and how rivers and streams flow to sea in the real world. In this paper, the task of sizing optimization of truss structures including discrete and continues variables carried out using WCA, and the optimization result...
