Abstract
To realize a topology optimization based on the Adaptive System as a general optimization framework, the APBA(Adaptive Plan system with Bat Algorithm) has been developed by converting the Genetic Algorithm of APGA(Adaptive plan system with Genetic Algorithm) into the Bat algorithm of Nature-Inspired Approaches as a global search. For first trial of a feasible study, we optimized a mean compliance by embedding a topology optimization of a mechanical structure in the APBA. As a result, the topology similar well to the analysis solution of Michell truss problem was obtained as an optimal topology of a cantilever. This paper describes these results which were obtained via using the APBA.
