an evolutionary structural optimization (eso) method is used for plastic design of frames. based on safe theorems some criteria are derived and made an effort to satisfy them during the optimization process. in this regard, equilibrium is checked and yield condition is gradually satisfied during the optimization process. in this method, the amount of used material and the stiffness for each ele...

in this paper, an optimization method for both weight and displacement of composite blades is presented. in   order to hold issues such as aerodynamics and acoustic unchanged, airfoil shape during optimization process remained constant. to achieve the ultimate goal, only blade lamination was changed. in order to achieve minimum weight for each part of the structure, the lowest layers are foreca...

the major problem in material removal process specially grinding is heat generation during the process and thus residual stress on the surface of product. therefore, optimization of high efficiency deep grinding (hedg) process is the main goal of this study in order to reduce heat and residual stress and also increase strength and surface hardness of aisi1045 steel by optimization of the proces...

background and objectives: microbial caffeine removal is a green solution for treatment of caffeinated products and agro-industrial effluents. we directed this investigation to optimizing a bio-decaffeination process with growing cultures of pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes through taguchi methodology which is a structured statistical approach that can be lowered variations in a process through de...

this paper presents a hybrid method for the optimization of forging process of an aerofoil blade. preform shape and die parting-line angle are optimized in order to minimize the volume of the unfilled die cavity, material waste, forging forces. the overall optimization scheme used in this research work includes a multi-objective approach that is combination of response surface and finite elemen...
