Optimal Design of Flat Tensegrity Structure Based on the Genetic Algorithm

Article Preview

Abstract:

Engineering application of the flat tensegrity structures was studied based on the genetic algorithm. Optimal design of the tensegrity structure considering both the size of cross-section and prestress variables is presented and the related optimization problems are studied. Mutual influence and constraints of prestressed state and components were considered.
