- Abstract
- The equivalent static loads method (ESLM) is a structural optimization method that can consider an analysis method other than linear static analysis. This method defines two separate domains: the analysis domain and design domain. Analysis is performed in the analysis domain, equivalent static loads (ESLs) sets are generated, linear static response optimization is carried out in the design domain using the ESLs and the process iterates until the stopping criteria are satisfied. This method is quite popular and some commercial systems have installed the method. Theoretical foundation of ESLM was validated for linear dynamic response optimization by Park and Kang (J Optim Theory Appl 18:191-200, 2003). They claimed that when the ESLM process terminates, the optimum solution satisfies the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) necessary condition. Some critical issues were raised by Stolpe (Struct Multidiscip Optim 50:921-926, 2014). He showed that the theoretical results in Park and Kang are not valid. In this paper, the validation process of Park and Kang is amended according to the Stolpe's corrections. It is shown that the original claim for the KKT condition is valid by adding some mathematical aspects.
