Evolving Truss Structures Using Genetic Algorithms

This is a preliminary run of a program that creates 2D statically determinant truss structures using genetic algorithms. The program uses a population size of 100, starting with small triangles as the first generation. Rare mutations are then applied to the structure, involving adding nodes, deleting nodes, and moving nodes. Almost all mutations will be harmful to the structure, such as mutations that cause the structure to become statically indeterminate, create members longer than the max length al
