The IUTAM Symposium on Evolutionary Methods in Mechanics was held in Cracow, Poland, September 24-27, 2002. The site of the S- posium was Cracow University of Technology. The Symposium was - tended by 50 persons from 18 countries. In addition, several Polish students, Ph. D. students and research associates participated in the meeting. The Symposium provided an excellent opportunity for scholars of - chanics, computer sciences and arti?cial intelligence to interact and - change their points of view on the advanced computational and appli- tion aspects of the evolutionary methods in analysis...

This book contains papers presented at the IUTAM Symposium on Evolutionary Methods in Mechanics held in Cracow, Poland, September 24-27, 2002.
Recently, Evolutionary algorithms and methods have become the most effective tools for solving specific kinds of problems in mechanics, especially in structural and multidisciplinary optimization. The book is devoted to both theoretical and practical developments of computational mechanics methods drawing their inspiration from nature with particular emphasis on evolutionary models of computation such as genetic algorithms, evolutionary strategies,...
