student competition on optimization

We would like to thank all the ISCSO 2017 participants for their contributions to the event. The winner of ISCSO 2017 is Team COIN from Michigan State University, United States. You may find the optimum solution, reported by the winner,

Problem Definition The three-dimensional steel truss structure shown below is composed of 198 members and 52 nodes. Sizing and shape optimization of this truss is considered. The topology of the truss (i.e. the way that the nodes are connected to

Problem Definition The steel cantilever truss shown below is composed of 117 members and 30 nodes. Sizing and shape optimization of this three-dimensional truss structure is considered. The topology (i.e. the way that the nodes are connected to each other)

The submission period for ISCSO 2023 has finished!

Problem Definition Consider the sizing and shape optimization of the 45-bar planar truss structure, shown below. The topology (i.e. the way that the nodes are connected to each other) for the truss is assumed to be fixed. Three vertical loads

The 12th International Student Competition in Structural Optimization (ISCSO 2023) 1-15 December 2023 ISCSO, an international student competition in structural optimization, was conceived over a decade ago with the primary objective of hosting an annual online event to encourage students
