The goal is to optimize the hysteresis energy dissipation in a steel structure subjected to a seismic event using a genetic algorithm.
Tools :
- Python
- PyGAD library
- SAP2000 Python API
Non linear behaviour of the selected beams is modified at each iteration to improve the energy dissipation.
Initial energy dissipation (green) :
Results after 10 generations :
