Structural Design With Stress and Buckling Constraints

Abstract

DESAP 2 synthesizes linear-elastic structures under static loads. Objective is to find element sizes (cross-sectional areas, plate thicknesses, and the like) that minimize total structural weight without changing layout of structure. Weight is minimized for given layout subject to prescribed contstraints.
