In this paper, Genetic Algorithm (GA) to solve the problem which determines the optimum postures of an adaptive truss structure is proposed. It is difficult to obtain a global solution of posture determination problem on adaptive truss containing many adjustable elements using traditional methods. It is said that the global solution can be found with higher probability by GA. The validity of GA is shown numerically through the application to the configuration control of a variable geometry truss containing ten adjustable elements. This paper particularly discusses the problem about the case that the position of the load is constrained.
