A method for selecting optimal sections for members of skeletal structures

This paper presents a simple method for selecting optimal sections for members of skeletal structures from an initially given set of sections. This is an extension of evolutionary structural optimization (ESO) to the sizing optimization problem with discrete design variables. Member sensitivity ind...
