Structural design applications of mathematical programming techniques, (AGARDograph)
By G. G Pope
FOREWORD
The Structures and Materials Panel of the Advisory Group for Aerospace
Research and Development (AGARD) comprises s c i e n t i s t s , engineers and technical
administrators from government, universities and industry, who are concerned
with the advancement of aerospace research and development and with the
provision of data necessary for the design and fabrication of the vehicles
and equipment which NATO requires.
the exchange of information and for conducting co-operative theoretical and
experimental studies i n selected areas.
The Panel provides a mechanism for discussion,
This volume describes the present state of development of the we of
mathematical programming techniques i n the optimum design of aerospace and
similar structures. Although optimization with respect to cost is considered
when possible, the main emphasis is on the minimization of weight, due to the
overwhelming importance of t h i s parameter i n aerospace applications, and also due
to the f a c t that it is one of the few merit functions that can be defined with
reasonable precision.
