The Regularization Algorithm of Configuration for Geodesic Borne

The aim of regularization of a structural configuration is to obtain a structure that consists of elements with identical or nearly identical length. And it is also possible to modify the configuration in a manner that the size of the elements vary in accordance with a specified pattern. For practical purpose, geodesic dome is cut off at a suitable place in order to make it fit on horizontal. Inevitably this pattern effects a change of element lengths. The purpose of this study is to verify a method for regularization of structural configuration by genetic algorithms and modify the element lengths of the dome. As a result of regularization of domes with various rise-span ratio, modified configurations have more regular element lengths and are more economical than initial configurations.
