Optimal design of frame structures with semi-rigid joints
Periodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering, 2007 In this paper, a genetic algorithm is proposed for discrete minimal weight design of steel planar frames with semi-rigid beam-to-column connections. The frame elements are constructed from a predetermined range of section profiles. Conventionally, the analysis of frame structures is based on the assumption that all connections are either frictionless ...
