Sparsity of Long-Span Bridges
Sunshine Skyway bridge cable-stayed bridge in Tampa, Florida
Akashi Bridge suspension bridge In Japan
Most long-span bridges occupy < 1% of their envelope volume.

SPARSITY in Topology Optimization
• Fixed-mesh model of full envelope volume;• must capture the form of the structure with realistic sparsity• must capture mechanical performance of the structure
• Fine meshes are required;• Implies large computational expense;

Summary & Conclusion
• A formulation has been developed and tested for form-finding of large-scale sparse structures;
• The formulation is based on linearized buckling analysis;
• The structural form and topology are optimized to achieve maximum buckling stability;
• The formulation yields “concept designs” that resemble existing large-scale bridge structures;
