Abstract

Since the first journal article on structural engineering applications of neural networks (NN) was published, there have been a large number of articles about structural analysis and design problems using machine learning techniques. However, due to a fundamental limitation of traditional methods, attempts to apply artificial NN concept to structural analysis problems have been reduced significantly over the last decade. Recent advances in deep learning techniques can provide a more suitable solution to those problems. In this study, versatile background information, such as alleviating overfitting methods with hyper-parameters, is presented. A well-known ten bar truss example is presented to show condition for neural networks, and role of hyper-parameters in the structures.
