| Abstract |
We consider the optimal design problem for cantilever beams of variable rigidity loaded at the free end by an arbitrary transverse force. The value of the cantilever free end vertical displacement serves as the optimality criterion, and the distribution of the cantilever thicknesses (cross-sections) is usually used as the design variable. We present results of an asymptotic analysis and a numerical solution of the optimization problem and discuss specific features of the formation of optimal solutions under nonlinear bending. |
