Weight minimization of tubular dome structures by a particle swarm methodology
The weight of tubular steel dome structures is minimized by utilizing a traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO) approach. Since an extensive welding process is utilized to connect the members of dome structures, joint strengths-related requirements are included into design constraints. The des...
