Abstract

This paper focuses on modified genetic algorithm based on the graph representation and specialized genetic operators. Advantages of changed representation, multi-level organization as well as self-adaptive aspects of the proposed method are described. The results of algorithm usage in optimising skeletal structures are also presented.
