Abstract:

In this paper, a new hybrid evolutionary-gradient algorithm is proposed to solve global numerical problems of topology optimization. The proposed algorithm is developed as a compromise between the direct and gradient-based optimization approaches. A short comparative study of computational results demonstrates the validity of the proposed method, as well as the necessity of its use.
