“…The application of Genetic algorithms to composites is described in a large number of studies that underline the advantages offered by these methods [15][16][17][18][19][20]. Genetic Algorithms are used to identify a lamination sequence that provides prescribed stiffness properties [15,16] and are also applied in multi-objective optimisation problems [18].…”

A study for the replacement of a metallic swing-arm of a high performance motorcycle with a composite part is presented. Considering the high structural effectiveness of the original metallic component, the case study evaluates the potential of composites in a challenging application. The FE model of the original component is developed to evaluate the structural performance in the most significant load conditions. A manufacturing process, based on a RTM technique, is proposed and analysed in order to develop realistic design hypotheses. The design approach is based on an optimisation process with 60 design variables. A constrained multi-objective genetic algorithm is applied to identify the solutions representing the best trade-off between mass reduction and improvement of torsional stiffness. Results show that composite materials can enhance the structural efficiency of the original metallic part, even considering technological limitations and damage tolerance requirements.

“…They found that the optimum fiber orientation angles were 52.1° and 54.1° according to the material type. Tabakov [9] performed a stochastic optimization study using GA to calculate the three-dimensional stress-strain in the cylindrical part of the composite pressure vessel. Exact elasticity solutions have been solved by considering the closed ends of the cylindrical shell into account.…”

“…A downhill proceeding algorithm monotonically decreasing the value of an objective function may get stuck into a locally optimal design other than the globally optimal one. For this reason, some researchers preferred global search algorithms like genetic algorithms, 184,226,248,249,254,255,260,286,288,291,296,313,315,321,324,328,329,339,362,373,379,395,398,402,404,405,415,421,424,428,430,443,445,448,457,458,465,467,468,473,477,494,495,497,499–501,504,505,508,511,518,520,526,537,547– 549,552,555,558,563,…”

Optimum structural design of composites is a research subject that has drawn the attention of many researchers for more than 40 years with a growing interest. In this study, a review of the literature on this subject is presented. The papers are classified according to the type of the composite structure optimized in those studies, the loading conditions, the objective function, the structural analysis method, the design variables, the constraints, the failure criteria, and the search algorithm used by the researchers.
