Optimal simple structures with bending and membrane stresses
Structural optimization of elastic solid structures with membrane and bending stresses is studied. A necessary and sufficient optimality condition for maximum stiffness is derived using an energy formulation (minimum potential energy). In the case of pure membrane or pure bending stress states, maxi...
