• Sizing optimization of truss structures by method of centers and force formulation (2010, methodology): “They applied the force method to nonlinear analysis of truss and frame structures (Kaveh and Rahami, 2006a), as well as to geometry and topology optimization via force method, genetic algorithm, and penalty function (Rahami et al., 2008).”
• Structural optimization using graphic statics (2014, background): “Similar to Hansen and Vanderplaats (1988) and Rahami et al. (2008), the authors of this work aim to minimize the total volume, or equivalently the total load path (Baker et al. 2013), of the structure in terms of the locations of the nodes in the force diagram, x, which can be written as follows…”
