Tensegrity structures are lightweight structures composed of cables in tension and struts in compression. Since tensegrity systems exhibit geometrically nonlinear behavior, findin...
Manydesign problems are solved using multiple levels of abstraction, wherea design at one level has combinatorially manychildren at the next level. A stochastic optimization metho...

We develop a variant of the Nelder-Mead (NM) simplex search procedure for stochastic simulation optimization that is designed to avoid many of the weaknesses encumbering such dire...
