Abstract

A procedure based on a simulated annealing method is presented for simultaneous optimization of topology and geometry of a plane truss with uniform cross-sectional area. A continuous topology transition model is introduced for simulating continuous transition between truss structures with different topologies. In order to improve convergence property of annealing, constraints on allowable nodal locations are considered and re-annealing procedures are introduced. In the examples, optimal solutions are found for cantilever-type and bridge-type plane trusses, and the effects of annealing schedule on optimal solutions are discussed.
