Abstract
• Structural engineering can nowadays make use of very remarkable computational
tools. This availability can lead to affirm that the entire process of designing and
verifying the quality of a structure can be automated.
• Paradoxically, the opposite is true: powerful tools require deep reflections on what
are the bases of structural design in order to consciously address the procedures
of representation and optimization available today.
• In this only in this way, that optimization can represent an effective fundamental
component of structural design, in order to try to maximize the performance of
the structures and their sustainability.
• In order to obtain a correct optimization, it is therefore necessary to examine the
roots of the design, to understand its meanings and evaluate the limits of the
different numerical implementations.
• The lessons of the course will develop the concepts underlying structural
optimization while presenting specific significant applications

Scaling of Design Variables
• It is often desirable to eliminate wide variations in the magnitudes
of design variables and the value of constraints by normalization.
• Design variables may be normalized to order 1 by scaling.
• This operation may enhance the efficiency and reliability of the
numerical optimization process.

Design of Experiments (DOE)
84
• In general usage, design of experiments (DOE) or experimental design is the
design of any information-gathering exercises where variation is present,
whether under the full control of the experimenter or not. However, in
statistics, these terms are usually used for controlled experiments.
• Formal planned experimentation is often used in evaluating physical objects,
chemical formulations, structures, components, and materials.
• Other types of study, and their design, are discussed in the articles on
computer experiments, opinion polls and statistical surveys (which are types
of observational study), natural experiments and quasi-experiments (for
example, quasi-experimental design).

HEURISTICS
29-Jan-23 STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION 2023 110
12. Heuristics
• A heuristic technique (/hjᵿˈrɪstᵻk/; Ancient Greek: εὑρίσκω, "find"
or "discover"), often called simply a heuristic, is any approach to
problem solving, learning, or discovery that employs a practical
method not guaranteed to be optimal or perfect, but sufficient for
the immediate goals.
• Where finding an optimal solution is impossible or impractical,
heuristic methods can be used to speed up the process of finding a
satisfactory solution.
• Heuristics can be mental shortcuts that ease the cognitive load of
making a decision.
111
29-Jan-23 STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION 2023
εὑρίσκω
• Heuristic (/hjʉˈrɪstɨk/; Greek: "Εὑρίσκω", "find" or "discover")
refers to experience-based techniques for problem solving,
learning, and discovery that give a solution which is not
guaranteed to be optimal. Where the exhaustive search is
impractical, heuristic methods are used to speed up the process of
finding a satisfactory solution via mental shortcuts to ease the
cognitive load of making a decision. Examples of this method
include using a rule of thumb, an educated guess, an intuitive
judgment, stereotyping, or common sense.
• In more precise terms, heuristics are strategies using readily
accessible, though loosely applicable, information to control
problem solving in human beings and machines.
112
29-Jan-23 STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION 2023
εὑρίσκω
• L'euristica (dalla lingua greca εὑρίσκω, letteralmente "scopro" o
"trovo") è una parte dell'epistemologia e del metodo scientifico.
• Si definisce procedimento euristico, un metodo di approccio alla
soluzione dei problemi che non segue un chiaro percorso, ma che
si affida all'intuito e allo stato temporaneo delle circostanze, al fine
di generare nuova conoscenza. È opposto al procedimento
algoritmico. In particolare, l'euristica di una teoria dovrebbe
indicare le strade e le possibilità da approfondire nel tentativo di
rendere una teoria progressiva.
113
29-Jan-23 STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION 2023
Bounded Rationality
• Bounded rationality is the idea that in decision-making, rationality of
individuals is limited by the information they have, the cognitive limitations
of their minds, and the finite amount of time they have to make a decision.
• It was proposed by H. A. Simon as an alternative basis for the mathematical
modeling of decision making, as used in economics, …; it complements
rationality as optimization, which views decision-making as a fully rational
process of finding an optimal choice given the information available.
• Another way to look at bounded rationality is that, because decision-makers
lack the ability and resources to arrive at the optimal solution, they instead
apply their rationality only after having greatly simplified the choices
available. Thus, the decision-maker is a satisfier, one seeking a satisfactory
solution rather than the optimal one.

Simulated Annealing (Metropolis)
• Simulated annealing (SA) is a generic probabilistic heuristic for the global
optimization problem of locating a good approximation to the global optimum of a
given function in a large search space.
• The name and inspiration come from annealing in metallurgy, a technique
involving heating and controlled cooling of a material to increase the size of its
crystals and reduce their defects.
• This notion of slow cooling is implemented in the Simulated Annealing algorithm
as a slow decrease in the probability of accepting worse solutions as it explores the
solution space. Accepting worse solutions is a fundamental property of heuristics
because it allows for a more extensive search for the optimum.
• The method is an adaptation of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, a Monte Carlo
method to generate sample states of a thermodynamic system, invented by M.N.
Rosenbluth and published in a paper by N. Metropolis et al. in 1953.

14. Nelder-Mead Method (Amoeba)
• The Nelder–Mead method or downhill simplex method or amoeba
method is a commonly used nonlinear optimization technique,
which is a well-defined numerical method for problems for which
derivatives may not be known.
• The Nelder–Mead technique is a heuristic search method that was
proposed by John Nelder & Roger Mead (1965) for minimizing an
objective function in a many-dimensional space.

Genetic Algorithm (GA)
• The original motivation for the GA approach was a biological analogy. In the
selective breeding of plants or animals, for example, offspring are sought
that have certain desirable characteristics, characteristics that are
determined at the genetic level by the way the parents’ chromosomes
combine. In the case of GAs, a population of strings is used, i.e.
chromosomes.
• The recombination of strings is carried out using analogies of genetic
crossover and mutation, and the search is guided by the results of evaluating
the objective function f for each string in the population.
• Based on this evaluation, strings that have higher fitness (i.e., represent
better solutions) can be identified, and these are given more opportunity to
breed.

Coding
• One of the distinctive features of the GA approach is to allow the
separation of the representation of the problem from the actual
variables in which it was originally formulated.
• In line with biological usage of the terms, it has become customary
to distinguish the ‘genotype’—the encoded representation of the
variables, from the ‘phenotype’—the set of variables themselves.

Strutture isostatiche / iperstatiche
• Nelle strutture isostatiche il regime statico ovvero lo stato di sforzo
è determinato unicamente dalle condizioni di equilibrio (tra l’altro,
considerando piccoli spostamenti, il regime statico non è
influenzato dalle non linearità di materiale eventualmente
presenti).
• Nelle strutture iperstatiche, il regime statico ovvero la distribuzione
delle sollecitazioni e degli sforzi dipende dalla distribuzione delle
rigidezze, considerando che parti strutturali più rigide attirano
maggiori sollecitazioni e sforzi.

Nota
• Con tale tecnica, si ottiene un dimensionamento che sfrutta a
pieno la capacità portante della sezione.
• Il progetto è basato quindi sul raggiungimento del requisito di
resistenza: un elemento strutturale e la struttura nel complesso
devono però soddisfare a differenti altri requisiti.
• È possibile considerare indirettamente questi altri aspetti anche
con il FSD: basta agire sui valori dei limiti tensionali o sui valori dei
moltiplicatori αmax ed αmin per dimensionare l’elemento con
riferimento ad altri aspetti che non siano la sola resistenza.

PORTATA MENSOLA
• La stragrande maggioranza dei tegoli (più dell’80% del
mercato USA) necessitano di una mensola con
capacità portante ULTIMA (UL) intorno ai 70 Kips.
• Dalle analisi siamo convinti che sarà possibile ridurre,
almeno in parte, il peso della mensola. In ogni caso il
peso complessivo della mensola non potrà superare i
7 Kg.
• Note:
• 70 Kips ULS = 70 x 4.45 kN = 312 kN = 31.2 t
• 70 / 2.5 = 28 Kips -> 312/2.5 = 125 kN = 12.5 t

Abstract
• Structural engineering can nowadays make use of very remarkable computational
tools. This availability can lead to affirm that the entire process of designing and
verifying the quality of a structure can be automated.
• Paradoxically, the opposite is true: powerful tools require deep reflections on what
are the bases of structural design in order to consciously address the procedures
of representation and optimization available today.
• In this only in this way, that optimization can represent an effective fundamental
component of structural design, in order to try to maximize the performance of
the structures and their sustainability.
• In order to obtain a correct optimization, it is therefore necessary to examine the
roots of the design, to understand its meanings and evaluate the limits of the
different numerical implementations.
• The lessons of the course will develop the concepts underlying structural
optimization while presenting specific significant applications
