Abstract:Structure optimization seeks to achieve the best performance for a structure while satisfying various constrains such as a given probability. In the traditional mathematical model of structure optimization, the goal and the restraint functions are given without considering the randomness of the structural system. In this paper, the random loads and strength are described by probability method, the structure reliability is considered as objective function. Using the genetic algorithm, the mega-sub controlled st… Show more
