Based on the sensitivity data of frame structures, the minimum weight design with an exact frequency constraint can be carried out efficiently. Three examples that demonstrated the results obtained by the proposed method, are in good agreement with those computed by ANSYS.application/pdf593552 bytesapplication/pdfzh-TWAn optimization of frame structures with exact dynamic constraints based on Timoshenko beam theoryjournal articlehttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/2006111501275486/1/5831.pdf
