• abstract = "This paper presents a genetic programming approach for simultaneous optimisation of sizing and topology of truss structures. It aims to find the optimal cross-sectional areas and connectivities of the joints to achieve minimum weight in the search space. The structural optimisation problem is subjected to kinematic stability, maximum allowable stress and deflection. This approach uses the variable-length representation of potential solutions in the shape of computer programs and evolves to the optimum solution. This method has the capability to identify redundant truss elements and joints in the design space. The obtained results are compared with existing popular and competent techniques in literature and its competence as a tool in the optimisation problem are demonstrated in solving some benchmark examples, the proposed approach provided lighter truss structures than the available solutions reported in the literature.",
