β¦ Synopsis
An iterative procedure of structural optimization is discussed that combines finite element analysis with the use of explicit optimality conditions. The procedure is illustrated by examples concerning sandwich beams with constraints on the deflection at a specified section, the maximum deflection or the sum of the maximum deflections in all spans of a continuous beam. The examples suggest that. starting from a uniform beam, by far the greatest saving in weight is obtained in the first two or three iterations.

A new design methodology for iterative learning control systems is developed. It is based on the convergence condition for systems operating on an infinite time interval which is of the H, type. The principal idea of the design technique is to design a learning controller such that the speed of conv
