STUDIES ON NONLINEAR PROGRAMMING OPTIMIZATION FOR SHIP STRUCTURES AND OPTIMUM DESIGN OF BOX AND I SECTION GIRDERS

For the purpose of establishing optimization of ship structure, studies were undertaken on nonlinear programming procedures and the elemental computer program was developed by the authors, which consists of the SUMT method incorporating the DFP method. As the first step towards whole ship structure, some optimum design analysis for box and I section girders mainly adapted in ship structure were conducted by using this program and the characteristic of this method and solutions obtained are discussed.
