Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization
Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Springer Science+Business Media. It is the official journal of the International Society of Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization. It covers all aspects of designing optimal structures in stressed systems as well as multidisciplinary optimization techniques when one of the disciplines deals with structures (stressed solids) or fluids. The journal's scope ranges from the mathematical foundations of the field to algorithm and software development with benchmark studies to practical applications and case studies in structural, aero-
and related topics, including engineering systems consisting partially of structures and/or fluids;
- to encourage practical applications of optimization methods and the corresponding software development in all branches of technology;
- to foster the interchange of ideas amongst various fields contributing to structural and multidisciplinary optimization;
- to support the role of optimization in multidisciplinary design;
- to provide a framework for the organization of meetings and other means for the dissemination of knowledge on structural optimization; and
- to promote teaching of structural optimization in tertiary institutions.
