Optimal Design Analysis of Prestressed Composite Space Truss

Article Preview

Abstract:

More than 40 prestressed composite space truss models of different dimensions are built with APDL design language, and the span, height, lattice number, prestressed value, section area of the chord, width and height of ribbed beam are chosen as design variables. With selecting total cost as objective function, constraint conditions such as strength, rigidity, stability, section size, prestressed limit and structural deflection are also considered, we conduct optimal design for structures by means of zero order optimization. From the results of regression analysis, the optimal span-to-height ratio, lattice number and empirical formula of optimal prestressed value can be found out for designers’ references.
