Abstract

This chapter describes various methods of creating single-branch Truss-Z (STZ) structures. First, the alignment to the given path is described, followed by backtracking-based method illustrated with the Case Study I. Next, various evolutionary algorithms are implemented for optimization of STZ illustrated with the Case Study II.
