Topology optimisation of masonry units from the thermal point of view using a genetic algorithm

The aim of this work is to find an economic single leaf masonry wall for the building construction industry with minimised heat loss through the envelope. Lightweight aggregate concrete has the potential to offer weight reduction as well as good thermal and acoustic properties without significantly...
