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 کاملOptimization of timber trusses considering joint flexibility
This paper presents the optimization of metal-plate-connected plane timber trusses with special emphasis on joint flexibility. The optimization is performed by the non-linear programming approach. Since various truss design parameters such as type of truss configuration, span/depth ratio, number and type of diagonal and vertical members and type of joint connections simultaneously affect each o...
متن کاملMINPL optimization of timber trusses considering joint flexibility
The paper presents the shape and discrete sizing optimization of timber trusses with the consideration of joint flexibility. The optimization was performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) approach. In the optimization model an economic objective function for minimizing the structure's selfmanufacturing costs was defined. The design conditions in accordance with Eurocode 5 wer...
متن کاملOptimization of slender structures considering geometrical imperfections
In this article, we present an optimization model which incorporates uncertainty induced by geometrical imperfections. Within the model, geometrical imperfections are represented by means of random fields. The induced uncertainties are then treated using the concept of a convex model. The resultant problem is then solved in a two-stage optimization procedure. An arched girder is used to demonst...
متن کاملTopology Optimization of Trusses - Random Cost Method Versus Evolutionary Algorithms
The recently proposed random cost method is applied to the topology optimization of trusses. Its performance is compared to previous genetic algorithm and evolution strategy simulations. Random cost turns out to be an optimization method with attractive features. In comparison to the genetic algorithm approach of Hajela, Lee and Lin, random cost turns out to be simpler and more efficient. Furth...
