Items related to Structural Optimization: Fundamentals and Applications
Synopsis
The purpose of this book is to introduce the fundamentals, methods and applications of structural optimization. Much work has been done and many studies have been published on structural optimization in recent years. The book is an attempt to collect together selected topics of this literature and to present them in a unified approach. It meets the need for an introductory text covering the various aspects associated with this area. This should prove useful to both the student and the practising structural engineer. The book discusses in detail various problem formulations, relative merit of different optimization methods and considerations related to practical applications. The emphasis throughout is on approximation concepts, which are essential in the solutionof may practical design problems, and on multistage design procedures where various methods are combined ti solve the overall design problem. The advantages as well as the limitations of the various problem formulations, solution methods and design procedures are discussed and illustrated by a variety of examples.
