Shape Optimization and Design Element Selection for Problems with Constrained Static and Dynamic Response

  • Conference paper
Engineering Optimization in Design Processes

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Engineering ((LNENG,volume 63))

Summary and Introduction

In many cases, design problems are governed by both static and dynamic constraints, where for the latter case engineering experience and feeling is often less evolved. In addition, the more challenging design variables are those for structural shape or the selection of proper types of design elements instead of only cross-sectional areas or plate thicknesses. In this paper some strategies and applications of optimal shape design will be presented which specifically include dynamic response constraints.
