A parallel genetic algorithm for optimal designing of frame structure

A new evolutionary optimal designing method is presented for the designing of steel structures. We combine finite element structural analysis codes with genetic algorithm to minimize the total weight of the structure subject to external loads and constraints. The proposed algorithm is implemented us...
