Optimal Design Processor for Structural Systems: Indo-US Cooperative Research, Award in US and Indian Currencies

9421297 Goldberg描述：该项目支持伊利诺伊大学工程学教授David Goldberg博士和印度马德拉斯印度理工学院土木工程教授C.S.Krishnamoorthy博士的合作研究项目。该项目旨在将美国在遗传算法(GAS)方面的研究成果-基于自然选择和自然遗传学的机制的搜索程序-与印度在结构优化和基于知识的系统应用方面的研究成果合并，从而产生一套计算机工具，从而显著提高两国结构设计的广度和效率。这项计算机工作被视为为结构优化量身定做的GA外壳原型的开发。如果可能，将使用公有领域代码，如Genesis和Splier，以节省工作。研究范围：这项研究项目符合国际项目部的目标，即在美国和外国科学家之间建立人才和经验互补的联系。这位美国科学家在遗传算法领域拥有经验和研究成果，这些经验和研究成果可以从将方法学扩展到结构领域的实际环境中受益。IIT的这位印度科学家在基于知识的结构设计方面拥有经验。这可以从应用当前的遗传算法理论和技术中受益。***

9421297 Goldberg Description: This project supports a cooperative research project by Dr. David Goldberg, Professor of Engineering at the University of Illinois and Dr. C.S. Krishnamoorthy, Professor of Civil Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras, India. The project aims to merge US research results in genetic algorithms (GAs)- search procedures based on the mechanics of natural selection and natural genetics- and Indian research on structural optimization and the application of knowledge-based systems, thereby producing a set of computer tools that can substantially improve the breadth and efficacy of structural design in both countries. The computer work is viewed as the development of a prototype GA shell tailored to structural optimization. When possible, public domain codes such as Genesis and Splicer will be used to save effort. Scope: This research project is suitable for the objectives of the Division of International Programs in linking US and foreign scientists with complementary talents and experiences. The US scientist has experience and research results in the area of GA that can benefit from the extension of the methodologies to practical settings in the field of structures. The Indian scientist at the IIT has experience in knowledge-based design of structures. This can benefit from applying the current GA theory and techniques. ***
