Optimal Shape Design of Mechanical Structure : 1st Repart, Discreted Shape Transformation

Optimal Shape Design for a Cooling Pin Fin Connection Profil

A shape optimization problem of cooling fins for computer parts and integrated circuits is modeled and solved in this paper. The main purpose is to determine the shape of a two-dimensional pin fin, which leads to the maximum amount of removed heat. To do this, the shape optimization problem is defined as maximizing the norm of the Nusselt number distribution at the boundary of the pin fin's con...

Shape-Measure Method for Solving Elliptic Optimal Shape Problems (Fixed Control Case)

Enhanced Hierarchical Shape Matching for Shape Transformation

The quality of 3D object transformation very often relies on the quality of the matching between the two objects. Geometric considerations regarding scale, rotation and translation, and user defined constraints are used to control the matching. Nevertheless, more complex measures regarding volumetric or topological similarity between the shapes are more difficult to define even manually. Choosi...

Shape optimal design criterion in linear models

Within the framework of classical linear regression model optimal design criteria of stochastic nature are considered. The particular attention is paid to the shape criterion. Also its limit behaviour is established which generalizes that of the distance stochastic optimality criterion. Examples of the limit maximin criterion are considered and optimal designs for the line fit model are found.

Shape Design Optimization of Unimorph Piezoelectric Cantilever Energy Harvester

The most promising method for micro scale energy scavenging is via vibration energy harvesting which converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. Using piezoelectric cantilevers is the most common method for vibration energy harvesting. Changing the shape of the cantilevers can lead to changing the generated output voltage and power. In this work vibration energy harvesting via piezoelectri...
