The purpose of this work is to present an efficient method for optimum design of frame structures, using approximation concepts. A dual strategy in which the design variables can be considered as discrete variables is used. A two-level approximation concept is used. In the first level, all the struc
## Abstract This paper deals with topology stiffness optimization of a ground structure consisting of rectangular 2Dβbeam elements with pathβdependent response. The objective of the optimization is to minimize the compliance of the structure when the mass is prescribed. The pathβdependent response
