English abstract:
The paper introduces modern design strategies for structures. The design of optimal topology and control of discrete truss-structure is presented. The model creation and particular analyses are done on the base of FEM (displacement method). The problem is formulated in statics. Objectives of minimization problem are weight and strain. The stress is constrained. Genetic algorithm is applied in numerical solution of truss-structure examples. Strains in optimized structures are eliminated applying shape control of the structure.
