Application of Computational Design Optimization in Geotechnical Engineering
Computational design optimization is a developing discipline in engineering that has the potential to lead to significantly more efficient designs with concomitant economic and environmental benefits. The approach is currently finding application in areas such as mechanical component design and the structural design of trusses. This paper describes recent work applying an integrated optimization approach to the ultimate limit state design of geotechnical structures. The approach described is built on the discontinuity layout optimization (DLO) method that utilizes optimization and limit analysis to directly determine the critical collapse mechanism for any soil geometry and loading configuration. However, by changing the objective of the optimization, the method can be made to automatically identify an optimal design, rather than the critical collapse mechanism. The approach is illustrated through several examples, including a reinforced soil slope and a wind turbine foundation system.
