摘要：

This paper demonstrates the use of genetic algorithms (GAs) for size optimization of trusses. The concept of rebirthing is shown to be considerably effective for problems involving continuous design variables. Some benchmark examples are studied involving 4-bar, 10-bar, 64-bar, 200-bar and 940-bar two-dimensional trusses. Both continuous and discrete variables are considered.
