Optimal prestress investigation on tensegrity structures using artificial fish swarm algorithm

To obtain the optimal uniform prestress of a tensegrity structure with geometric configuration given, a novel method is developed for prestress design of tensegrity structures by utilizing the artificial fish swarm algorithm (AFSA). In the beginning, the formfinding process is implemented by solving...
