in this paper, first a sensitivity analysis of parameters affecting the performance of the steam generator is performed. this process includes the pinch temperature difference and the gas velocity (width of the hrsg) as the operating parameter and geometrical parameters (fin’s thickness, fin’s height, number of fins in each inch, tube transverse pitch) for each pressure parts is carried out, an...

the aim of this work is to find an efficient aerodynamic-based design algorithm for projectile fins and configuration shape optimization. three-dimensional supersonic flow over a projectile with fins at much number 5 and one degree angle of attack was studied. the runge-kutta method and multi-block technique was used to solve the governing equations. a basic configuration was assumed for the fi...

Preliminary notes This paper aims to establish the parameters of optimization and geometrical improvements for the micro-geometry of solid carbide drills through the application of sand blasting process. The effects of sand blasting over the cutting edge and also upon the micro geometry of the tool body are to be taken into consideration. This process is one of the most common ones used in the ...

For most practical purposes, true topology optimization of a braced frame should be synchronized with its sizing. An integrated layout optimization is formulated here to simultaneously account for both member sizing and bracings’ topology in such a problem. Code-specific seismic design spectrum is applied to unify the earthquake excitation. The problem is solved for minimal structural weight un...

Within dental-guided surgery, there has been a lack of analytical methods for optimizing the treatment of the rehabilitation concepts regarding geometrical variation. The purpose of this study is to find the source of the greatest geometrical variation contributor and sensitivity contributor with the help of virtual variation simulation of a dental drilland implant-guided surgery process using ...
