The '''International Society for Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization''' is a [[learned society]] in the field of [[multidisciplinary design optimization]] that was founded in October 1991. It has more than 1000 members in 45 countries.<ref name="about">{{cite web|url=http://www.issmo.net/about/welcome|title=ISSMO welcome|date=2 January 2013 |publisher=International Society for Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization|accessdate=2013-06-11}}</ref> The current president is [[Wei Chen (engineer)|Wei Chen]] ([[Northwestern University]]).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.issmo.net/about/executive-committee|title=Executive Committee|date=2 January 2013 |publisher=International nongovernmental organizations|accessdate=2019-12-30}}</ref> The society is an affiliated organization of the [[International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics]] (IUTAM).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://iutam.org/?page_id=1049 |title=Affiliated Organizations |publisher=International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics |date=2013 |accessdate=2013-06-11}}</ref>
== Objectives ==
The objectives are:<ref name="about"/>
<blockquote>
* to stimulate and promote research into all aspects of the optimal design of structures and related topics, including engineering systems consisting partially of structures and/or fluids;
* to encourage practical applications of optimization methods and the corresponding software development in all branches of technology;
Line 6 ⟶ 11:
* to provide a framework for the organization of meetings and other means for the dissemination of knowledge on structural optimization; and
* to promote teaching of structural optimization in tertiary institutions.
</blockquote>
The society works towards these objectives by organizing a biennial "World Congress of Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization" and publishing an official journal, ''[[Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization]]'', in collaboration with [[Springer Science+Business Media]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.springer.com/materials/mechanics/journal/158 |title=Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization |publisher=Springer Science+Business Media |date= |accessdate=2013-06-11}}</ref>
