Abstract

The aim of the paper is to present the application of the sequential and distributed evolutionary algorithms to selected structural optimization problems. The coupling of evolutionary algorithms with the finite element method and the boundary element method creates a computational intelligence technique that is very suitable in computer aided optimal design. Several numerical examples for shape, topology and material optimization are presented.
