The problem of ΓΏnding the optimal shape of a continuous structure is addressed using, alternatively, heuristic, evolutionary and mixed evolutionary and heuristic optimization strategies. Boundaries are represented by B-splines. Two heuristics for minimizing the weight of a structure subject to limit
Integrated optimization of structural topology and control system is considered. The problem is formulated as mixed discrete-continuous multi-objective programming with a linear quadratic regulator cost index, and measures of robustness and controllability as objectives. The Genetic Algorithm (GA),
## Abstract Empirical and mechanistic experimental design methods are combined to construct partial models, which are, thus, used to design a process. The grid algorithm restricts the next experimental point to potential process optima, according to the confidence intervals around the optimal point
