Enhanced growth method for topology and geometry optimization of truss structures
Enhanced growth method for topology and geometry optimization of truss structures is a scholarly work, published in 2022 in ''Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization''. The main subjects of the publication include plane, structural engineering, semiconductor device reliability, geometry, electronic circuit topology, truss, tensegrity, cantilever, computer science, functionally graded material, mathematics, engineering design process, and topology optimization. The authors present an enhanced growth method based on virtual displacements and strains fields for generating optimal design in terms of topology and geometry of plane trusses without the need of a generation of so-called ground structure.
