Geometry and Topology Optimization of Statically Determinate Beams under Fixed and Most Unfavorably Distributed Load
Abstract The paper concerns topology and geometry optimization of statically determinate beams with an arbitrary number of pin supports. The beams are simultaneously exposed to uniform dead load and arbitrarily distributed live load and optimized for the absolute maximum bending moment. First, all t...
