Elasto-Plastic Optimization of Steel Trusses Under Geometric Nonlinearity and Imperfections via a Neural-Network-Assisted Genetic Algorithm
A neural-network-assisted genetic algorithm (NNAGA)-based design framework, in which a deep neural network model is progressively trained on data accumulated during the genetic algorithm (GA) search, which supports the robustness of the penalty formulation and the algorithmic parameters, indicating additional achievabl...
