Thirty years of modern structural optimization. Vanderplaats, G. N. Advances in Engineering Software, 16(2):81–88, 1993. doi abstract bibtex Modern structural optimization began in earnest in 1960 when Schmit first combined finite element analysis with nonlinear numerical optimization methods to create what he called `Structural Synthesis'. Since that time, the methods have been continually developed and improved, so that today we can say that this technology has matured to become a practical design tool. The purpose here is to review the history of structural optimization and to identify the present state of the art.
