On Structural Optimization with Incomplete Information

Abstract In this paper we investigate the problems of optimal design of structures under condition of incomplete information regarding the external action, material properties and arisen damages. In formulating and solving problems, we shall apply the worst case scenario (minimax guaranteed approach). Special attention is devoted to transformation of optimal design problems with incomplete information to the conventional problems of structural optimization.
