In structural optimization, computer-based systems have been used to assist in the numerical aspects of the optimization process. However, structural optimization involves a number of tasks which require human expertise and are traditionally assisted by human designers. These include design optimization formulation, problem recognition and the selection of appropriate algorithm(s). This paper presents a framework for developing an integrated knowledge-based system for structural optimization. The operation of a prototype system, called OPTIMA, implemented in a combination of Lisp, Prolog and C on SUN workstations is described and demonstrated through an example problem. The system clearly demonstrates the potential of applying knowledge-based systems to structural optimization.
