SUMMARY:

More and more, inspiration is sought from nature to solve complex problems in modern society. Whether observing the morphological characteristics of animals and plants or even the behavior of living beings in the environment in which they live. The naturalist Charles Darwin studied this behavior in depth and proposed a theory that explains how life became what it is today, the Theory of Natural Selection. This theory helped to solve questions not only in the biological sciences but also in the social sciences and engineering. The theory of natural selection of the directional type inspires the topological optimization method proposed in this work. The Progressive Directional Selection method seeks to optimize a structure by selecting the parts that contribute the most to support the mechanical loads and eliminating the parts that contribute the least. Numerical applications of PDS (Progressive Directional Selection) were performed in two-dimensional truss structures, starting from a ground structure type structure. The optimal structures obtained were structurally stable and efficient, proving that this method can be employed for the topological optimization process of two-dimensional trusses.
