Knowledge Base Repository
In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
Fiber-reinforced plastics have a high potential for lightweight structures due to their high specific strength and stiffness. A modular system enables a reduction of the manufacturing costs for trusses by standardizing the components. The subdivision of the truss struts into groups and the selection of the profiles for the strut groups can be done by optimization with a genetic algorithm and the initial population generation by the bisection method. The proposed method reduces the number of necessary iterations and improves the optimum in comparison to the previous descriptions.
