this article is the generation of optimalbasic configurations of designed artifacts, a processcommonly known as conceptual design. We use a generaloptimization technique which is not tailored to any particulardesign domain. Specifically, the examples we provide are inthe domain of structural topology optimization using geneticalgorithm search (Goldberg, 1989). Genetic algorithms canbe applied to many other classes of conceptual designproblems---these efforts intend to help determine the ...
