Optimal design of laminated composite stiffened panels of symmetric and balanced layup with different number of T-shape stiffeners is investigated and presented. The stiffened panels are simply supported and subjected to uniform biaxial compressive load. In the optimization for the maximum buckling load without weight penalty, the panel skin and the stiffened laminate stacking sequence, thickness and the height of the stiffeners are chosen as design variables. The optimization is carried out by applying an ant colony algorithm (ACA) with the ply contiguous constraint taken into account. The finite strip method is employed in the buckling analysis of the stiffened panels. The results shows that the buckling load increases dramatically with the number of stiffeners at first, and then has only a small improvement after the number of stiffeners reaches a certain value. An optimal layup of the skin and stiffener laminate has also been obtained by using the ACA. The methods presented in this paper should be applicable to the design of stiffened composite panels in similar loading conditions. Crown Copyright (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
