Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) methodology that connects several methods, from geometrical design post-process selection, into common optimisation framework. Design/methodology/approach A formulated and tested in case study. outcome the study analysed by comparing obtained results with alternative designs achieved using other methods. ...

All-solid microstructured optical fibers (MOF) allow the realization of very flexible optical waveguide designs. They are prepared by stacking of doped silica rods or canes in complex arrangements. Typical dopants in silica matrices are germanium and phosphorus to increase the refractive index (RI), or boron and fluorine to decrease the RI. However, the direct interface contact of stacking elem...

This paper presents a computational system for augmenting real-time 3D virtual environments to support the formation and compositions of architectural designs. The developed IAMVE (Interactive Architectural Modeling in Virtual Environments) system provides more flexibility to architectural designers and develops an edge to multi-user real time 3D virtual environments to be better utilized in th...

The Photonic crystals have become a rapidly growing area of research with their vast application areas. A Photonic crystal exhibits characteristics that depends on various parameters such as crystal lattice, dielectric used, defects dimensions, propagation of light etc. In this work, a set of four structures are taken and these structure designs are simulated using MEEP and MATLAB software tool...
