Abstract
This paper formulates a method for creating an adaptive truss structure composed of variable stiffness members. In the method, an optimization law is applied to make a decision on the basic structural composition. The optimization law is called the adaptive region maximum law, and if maximizes the function region of the adaptive structure. The formulation is presented to make a decision on the adaptive truss structure. Moreover, its efficiency is explained with three examples of statical determinate and indeterminate truss structures.
