1.1 Displacement Based Optimization as an Alternative Formulation to Structural Optimization Problems
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Modern structural optimization problems can usually be formulated in several alternative, but equivalent, ways leading to identical solutions. The chosen formulation may affect significantly the solution process, and is characterized by the independent variables and analysis equations used, as well as the form of constraints. A comprehensive study for different available schemes to structural optimization problems is given by U. Kirsch and G.I.N. Rozvany (1994).

متن کاملOPTIMAL CONSTRAINED DESIGN OF STEEL STRUCTURES BY DIFFERENTIAL EVOLUTIONARY ALGORITHMS
Structural optimization, when approached by conventional (gradient based) minimization algorithms presents several difficulties, mainly related to computational aspects for the huge number of nonlinear analyses required, that regard both Objective Functions (OFs) and Constraints. Moreover, from the early '80s to today's, Evolutionary Algorithms have been successfully developed and applied as a ...

In this paper, the effect of angle between predictor and corrector surfaces on the structural analysis is investigated. Two objective functions are formulated based on this angle and also the load factor. Optimizing these functions, and using the structural equilibrium path’s geometry, lead to two new constraints for the nonlinear solver. Besides, one more formula is achieved, which was p...
