Chapter 3 of the dissertation is concerned with methods to suppress local and global instability of least-weight structures. Per-forated webs placed between structural members, structural member shape optimization and light-weight foam inserts are methods investi-gated in the research to address the instability problems. Simply supported least-weight arch beams were designed and mechanically tested. The experimental results were compared with FEA. In Chapter 4 matrix operator methods used to generate optimal layouts with straight boundaries were extended to include curved boundaries. A program previously written to solve straight boundary problems was generalized to generate layouts for cantilevers with curved boundaries by using this method. In Chapter 5 the design of an arch structure with a continuous profiled-thickness web was analyzed. In Chapter 6 optimal layouts with 2 and 3-bar trusses were investigated for two alternate loading cases. A program was written to determine the mini-mum-weight from alternative structures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Murat Demircubuk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639010981\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639010985\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/29\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Murat Demircubuk","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47305511862527,"sku":"9783639010985","price":73.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7e18971d-1111-43cb-9058-aabbdc94d142.jpg?v=1758831084","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/design-of-optimal-product-structures-murat-demircubuk-9783639010985","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
