Abstract: | Some problems in the optimal topology design of structures with discrete variables are studied in this paper. The problem
of a model of discrete optimization is discussed and a neglected fact that discrete optimum design may be controlled by the
discreteness of sizing variables and global constraints is pointed out. A heuristic algorithm for solving discrete topology
optimization problems of trusses and frames is proposed. |
