Abstract: Abstract An element-free Galerkin method is presented to analyze isotropic and laminated composite plates. This method employs the moving least square technique to approximate functions. In the analysis procedure, a collocation method is used to enforce boundary conditions. A consistent multi-objective optimization procedure is also applied. The function introduced here consists of minimizing the weight and cost, as well as of maximizing the load. A genetic algorithm is used for the optimization process.
