Abstract
The use of allowable stress algorithms for a simple structural optimization problem with a single frequency constraint and a constant mass matrix is discussed. The mathematical properties of the eigenvalue problem are reviewed. An Allowable stress algorithm is stated and its properties discussed. Two simple examples are presented. The primary concern of this paper lies in placing allowable stress-type algorithms within the mathematical programming literature.
