“…Recently, with the uplift probe on the environmental problem and considerable improvement, another substantial purpose of structural optimization has been evolved by lessening environmental consequences just due to significant quantity of CO 2 emissions in area of construction engineering [20]. In improvement, enhancing certain structural achievements, Le [21] emphasized by some study manuscripts on structural optimization such as dynamic seismic performance, aerodynamic performance and mechanical behavior [22] to make structure friendly for various regions and their ecosystem.…”

The structural development in bridge engineering along with efficiency have got much attention in few decades. Leading to the development, Optimization of structure established on mathematical analysis emerged mostly employed strategies for productive and sustainable design in the bridge engineering. Despite the widespread knowledge, there has yet to be a rigorous examination of recent structural optimization exploration development. Thus, the primary objectives of this paper are to critically review previous structural optimization research, provide a detailed examination of optimization goals and outline recent research field limitations and provide guidelines for future research proposal in the field of bridge engineering structural optimization. This article begins by outlining the relevance of efficiency and sustainability in the bridge construction, as well as the work done required for this review. Suitable papers are gathered and followed by a statistical analysis of the selected publications. Following that, the selected papers are evaluated in terms of the optimization targets as well as their spatial patterns. Structure's optimization four key steps, including modeling, optimization techniques, formulation of optimization concerns and computational tools, are also researched and examined in depth. Finally, research gaps in contemporary works are identified, as well as suggested guidance for future works.

Wind-induced response governs the design of the long-span bridges. The shape of the deck is one of the most important factors that not only affects the mechanical properties but greatly influences the aerodynamic performance of the bridge. An efficient framework is proposed to perform aerodynamic shape optimization of a bridge deck using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations and response surface strategies considering aeroelastic phenomena such as flutter, buffeting and Vortex-induced Vibrations (VIV). A parameterized cross section of the deck has been utilized ensuring required carriageway width and structural demand. The Particle swarm optimization algorithm has been employed which leads to an optimized shape that performs better as compared to the reference section. The presented aerodynamic shape optimization framework has a great potential to be used in the design of long-span bridges.

A methodology to obtain the minimum weight of cables in cable-stayed bridges when a cable fails has been developed. To this end, a multi-model strategy is proposed that takes into account design constraints in both the intact and damaged models. The dynamic effect of the cable breakage is considered by the application of impact loads at the tower and deck anchorages. The methodology is applied to the Queensferry Crossing Bridge, a multi-span cable-stayed bridge with cross stay cables in the central section of each main span. The number of cables, anchorage position on the deck, cable areas and prestressing forces are considered as design variables into the optimization process simultaneously. The fail-safe optimum design results in a different cable layout than the optimized design of the intact structure, with minimum volume increase.
