In this paper, a novel optimization-based method is proposed to analyze steel space truss structures undergoing large deformations. The geometric nonlinearity is considered using the total Lagrangian formulation. The nonlinear solution is obtained by introducing and minimizing an objective function subjected to the displacement-type constraints. The proposed approach can fully follow the equilibrium path of the geometrically nonlinear space truss structures not only before the limit point, but also after it, namely, including both the pre- and post-buckling paths. Moreover, a direct estimation of the buckling loads and their corresponding displacements is possible by using the method. Particularly, it has been shown that the equilibrium path of a structure with highly nonlinear behavior, multiple limit points, snap-through, and snap-back phenomena can be traced via the proposed algorithm. To demonstrate the accuracy, validity, and robustness of the proposed procedure, four benchmark truss examples are analyzed and the results compared with those by the modified arc-length method and those reported in the literature.
