galapagos Structual Optimization Test

Testing galapagos GA for structural topology optimization.
It aims at finding most efficient structural configuration resisting a point load at the end of the cantilever with least number of member.

I used SAP2K for FEM Solver.
And made some components to parametrically control SAP2K.

The fitness goal is the displacement of the end of the cantilever. and penalty was assigned to the number of members.

This model is the best of the 10th generation, and it resembles human-made design.
