Shape optimization of cantilever beam / Hamdan Abd Hamid

Shape optimization is the determination of the boundary which best meets the design criteria, while simultaneously satisfying design constraints. In this research, shape optimization of a cantilever beam is a process to obtain the optimum shape of the beam while the stress and deflection are within...
