Optimal Weight Design for Truss Structure

by Pham The Nhan Nguyen

This study presents application of genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization techniques to estimate optimal weight of two truss structures, two-dimensional and three-dimensional truss, satisfying a constrained displacement and allowable stress. Constraints are mostly handled by using the concept of penalty functions. Two strategies of penalty functions, exterior penalty function strategy (EPFS) and self-organizing adaptive penalty strategy...
