Structural Optimization Using the Simultaneous Perturbation Stochastic Approximation Algorithm
This paper presents an application of the simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA) method to size optimization of structures. This method can predict a gradient approximation that needs only two measurements of the objective function regardless of optimization problem dimension. Thi...
