Heteroscedastic Gaussian process regression for the robust design of precast prestressed concrete beams

Long-span precast prestressed concrete girders are susceptible to lateral instability during temporary phases such as lifting, transport and placement on bearings. As spans have increased, failures have occurred, driven by initial imperfections from fabrication tolerances, creep, shrinkage and thermal effects. This pap...

Simultaneous Topology, Shape and Size Optimisation of 2D Trusses with Practical Constraints

This study introduces a novel optimisation methodology for 2D trusses, based on genetic algorithms. It combines topology, shape and size optimisation into a single procedure, while bridging the gap to practical application. This is achieved by including Eurocode EN 1993‐1‐1 deflection and capacity checks, using discret...
