Micro Abstract:
We consider the problem of topology optimization of truss structures under uncertain dynamic loads and combine the topology optimization problem with a feedback controller design via the $H_infty$-control problem. With the help of the Bounded Real Lemma the optimization problem can be formulated as nonlinear semidefinite programming problem. We solve the resulting problem using a sequential semidefinite programming approach. The considerations are complemented by numerical results for trusses.
