Abstract

The special properties of optimal systems have been already identified. Besides, criteria has been for­mulated to assess the proximity of optimal solutions to the minimal material consumption. In particular, the cri­teria were created for rods with rectangular and I-beam cross-section with stability constraints or constraints for the value of the first natural frequency. These criteria can be used for optimization when the cross sections of a bar change continuously along its length. The resulting optimal solutions can be considered as an idealized ob­ject in the sense of the limit. This function of optimal design allows researcher to assess the actual design solu­tion by the criterion of its proximity to the corresponding limit (for example, regarding material consumption). Such optimal project can also be used as a reference point in real design, for example, implementing a step-by­step process of moving away from the ideal object to the real one. At each stage, it is possible to assess the changes in the optimality index of the object in comparison with both the initial and the idealized solution. One of the variants of such a process is replacing the continuous change in the size of the cross sections of the rod along its length with piecewise constant sections. Boundaries of corresponding intervals can be selected based on an ideal feature, and cross-section dimensions can be determined by one of the optimization methods. The dis­tinctive paper is devoted to criteria that allow researcher providing reliable assessment of the endpoint of the op­timization process, and the second part of the material presented contains corresponding numerical examples, prepared in accordance with the theoretical foundations given in the first part.
