Description


Consider material properties to determine optimum materials for:
* stiffness-limited design, consider specific stiffness ratios (E/ρ).
* strength-limited design, consider specific strength ratio (σy/ρ).
The following types of loading are considered:
* pure tension.
* flat plate bending.
* cantilever bending of hollow tubes with a fixed outer radius to thickness ratio.
Materials optimised by considering:
* minimum mass.
* minimum cost.
