Optimization method for shape design of Auxetic Bending-Active Gridshells using discrete differential geometry

Parametric Deformation of Discrete Geometry for Aerodynamic Shape Design

We present a versatile discrete geometry manipulation platform for aerospace vehicle shape optimization. The platform is based on the geometry kernel of an open-source modeling tool called Blender and offers access to four parametric deformation techniques: lattice, cage-based, skeletal, and direct manipulation. Custom deformation methods are implemented as plugins, and the kernel is controlled...

Discrete Differential Geometry 655 Workshop : Discrete Differential Geometry

Discrete Differential Geometry is a broad new area where differential geometry (studying smooth curves, surfaces and other manifolds) interacts with discrete geometry (studying polyhedral manifolds), using tools and ideas from all parts of mathematics. This report documents the 29 lectures at the first Oberwolfach workshop in this subject, with topics ranging from discrete integrable systems, p...

Bending analysis of composite sandwich plates using generalized differential quadrature method based on FSDT

Nowadays, the technology intends to use materials such as magnesium alloys due to their high strength to weight ratio in engine components. As usual, engine cylinder heads and blocks has made of various types of cast irons and aluminum alloys. However, magnesium alloys has physical and mechanical properties near to aluminum alloys and reduce the weight up to 40 percents. In this article, a new ...
