Based on the bi-directional evolutionary structural optimization (BESO), the method of determining the adhesion position of the damping material is proposed in this paper, which is applicable to the vibration damping of ship plate. In this method, the needed amount of damping material is taken as the constraint condition, and the maximization of one natural vibration frequency of the structure is taken as the target function. A thin plate structure with both ends constraints has been taken as an example to get the best topology structure of its adhesion damper by taking the BESO method. The result of optimization shows that it still meets the damping requirements when the needed amount of damping material decreases by about 50% of the original amount. The reasonable result demonstrates the effectiveness and engineering value of the method.
