Description
Summary:This paper investigates the optimal shaping of the web height of an I-section steel portal frame. The problem is formulated as a control theory task. From a mathematical perspective, the task involves solving the multipoint boundary value problem for the system of forty-three differential equations. The solution is compared to results obtained from the finite element software Abaqus.
