Design Optimization for Vibration Reduction of Viscoelastic Damped Structures Using Genetic Algorithms

Due to the large number of design variables that can be present in complex systems incorporating visco-elastic damping, this work examines the application of genetic algorithms in optimizing the response of these structures. To demonstrate the applicability of genetic algorithms (GAs), the approach...
