Abstract.

The purpose of this brief note is to demonstrate that general-purpose optimization methods and codes should not be discarded when dealing with stress-constrained truss topology optimization. By using a disaggregated formulation of the considered problem, such methods may find also “singular optima”, without using perturbation techniques like the ε-relaxed approach.
