Abstract

Optimization of truss structure is major beneficia l in the field of mechanical and civil
engineering. There are several methods existing for the optimal design of structures which have been
developed in past few years. However, Genetic Algorithm is proven method for truss structure
optimization due to its probabilistic nature. This paper presents a review on implementation of genetic
algorithms to optimization of10-bar truss structure. Result of this technique is also compared with other
optimization technique to present it is best method than other.
