Conceptual design using multilevel continuum structural topology optimization

ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my deep gratitude to my advisor, Professor Colby C. Swan for all of his patient guidance, valuable advice, and enthusiastic encouragement, and belief throughout my research work at The University of Iowa. His willingness to motivate me contributed tremendously to my research. The knowledge I have gained from Professor Swan is invaluable. and Professor ...

Design of High Altitude Platforms Cellular Communications

Cellular communications using high altitude platforms (HAPs) will predominate the existing conventional terrestrial or satellite systems but requires some optimization especially in the cellular radio coverage design. The design of HAPs cellular system suffers from increasing cell area when directing the same beam to cover lower elevation regions and therefore requires some modification in its ...

Multilevel modelling for engineering design optimization

Physical systems can be modeled at many levels of approximation. The right model depends on the problem to be solved. In many cases, a combination of models will be more eeective than a single model alone. Our research investigates this idea in the context of engineering design optimization. We present a family of strategies that use multiple models for unconstrained optimization of engineering...
