Optimization of Distribution and Stiffness of Connections in Steel Frames by Value based Seismic Design, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Esmail Pourestekanchi, Homayoon (Supervisor)
Abstract
Structural optimization has always been one of the concerns of engineers. Usually, engineers decide to optimize the structure with its weight. Nowadays we know that the best solution in weight optimization is not good for the structural damage and performance of the structure due to risk analysis.In this study, using the genetic algorithm to reduce construction cost, Loss and damaged cost and total cost of the structure by calculating structural damage based on FEMA-P58 guidelines according to two types of connections (rigid or hinge) and their elements (beams and columns) in two types of structures 4 and 8 story has been investigated.At each stage of increment in algorithms, first, the...
