Optimum design of unbraced rigid frames

TL;DR: In this article, an algorithm is presented for the optimum design of unbraced rigid frames which takes into account the non-linear response of the frame due to the effect of axial loads.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimum design of geometrically nonlinear elastic-plastic steel frames

TL;DR: In this article, a structural optimization algorithm for geometrically nonlinear elastic-plastic frames is presented by coupling the optimality criteria approach with a large deformation analysis method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimum topology design of various geometrically nonlinear latticed domes using improved harmony search method

TL;DR: In this paper, optimum topological design algorithm is presented that determines the optimum number of rings, the optimum height of crown and tubular section designations for the member groups of these domes.
Book ChapterDOI

Adaptive Harmony Search Algorithm for Design Code Optimization of Steel Structures

TL;DR: In this chapter an improved version of harmony search algorithm called an adaptive harmonysearch algorithm is presented and it is shown that the proposed algorithm improves performance of the technique and it renders unnecessary the initial selection of the harmony search parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shape Optimization of Trusses

TL;DR: In this article, a method for the optimum shape design of trusses is presented, which obtains the optimum locations of the joints while it employs the concept of ground structure.
