Optimum Tendon Placement for Post Tensioned S.S. Beam with Variable Eccentricity

A challenging problem for a direct search design methods was introduced in this work. Pattern Search PS method was used to find the optimum designed section of a prestressed simply supported post tensioned beam with variable tendon eccentricity. Flexural and geometrical design constraints were used...
