Exploiting group symmetry in truss topology optimization

We consider semidefinite programming (SDP) formulations of certain truss topology optimization problems, where a lower bound is imposed on the fundamental frequency of vibration of the truss structure. These SDP formulations were introduced in Ohsaki et al. (Comp. Meth. Appl. Mech. Eng. 180:203–217,...
