Shrnutí:Abstract The structural optimization of trusses is a complex problem that can be affected by many different factors. In this research, the authors investigated the optimization of trusses performing a geometric nonlinear analysis under dynamic loading, using two different metaheuristic algorithms: the Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The objective function was to minimize the weight of the structure. A number of benchmark test problems for spatial trusses considering a geometric nonlinear analysis, and dynamic loading are analyzed to verify the performance of the optimization algorithms. The results showed that both algorithms were able to find efficient solutions to the optimization problem and suggest that the choice of the optimization algorithm can have a significant impact on the performance of the optimization process.
