Objectives of the Course
|
Description The course covers fundamentals of structural optimization in terms of the optimal design of topology, shape, size, and material for discrete and continuous representations of structures. Students are expected to develop computer programs to implement optimization methods for the solution of benchmark optimization problems defined for structural optimization. The course aligns with doctorate level studies by combining advanced structural optimization concepts with computational programming, enabling students to develop and implement optimization methods for solving complex structural design problems.
