Abstract
There are less topology optimization methods for bars structure than those for continuum structure. Bionic intelligent method is a powerful way to solve the topology optimization problems of bars structure since it is of good global optimization capacity and convenient for numerical calculation. This article presents a SKO topology optimization model for bars structure based on SKO (Soft Kill Option) method derived from adaptive growth rules of trees, bones, etc. The model has been applied to solve the topology optimization problem of a space frame. It uses three optimization strategies, which are constant, decreasing and increasing material removed rate. The impact on the optimization processes and results of different strategies are discussed, and the validity of the proposed model is proved.
