This paper presents a method for considering fatigue life requirements in the optimal design of structures. The basic concept is to use the load history data combined with the finite element stresses of the structure and the material fatigue properties to calculate the fatigue life during the optim

The algorithm optimization presented uses the optimality criteria method so as to minimize the total weight of the structure in the presence of a constraint of the damping type. The goal of this study is to increase the structural damping by optimizing the viscoelastic and elastic material distribut
## Abstract Most structures, during their service life, are subjected to several loading conditions; moreover, during their assembly, some or all of the assumed design variables are varied due to manufacturing imperfections. In the case of an optimum structure this can be especially dangerous. The
