This course is an introduction to the methods of form-finding and structural optimisation, with an emphasis on trusses, frames, and grid shell structures. The course consists of theoretical seminars introducing the subject, and a project in which the form-finding and/or structural optimisation methods are applied on a case study.
The slides of the seminars will be provided to the students.
The students understand the fundamentals of various form finding and structural optimisation methods, and can apply them onto various types of structures (trusses, arches, frames, grid shells, ...).
The students know the assumptions and limits of the form finding and structural optimisation methods, and understand their consequences on the optimum that is found.
