    An Automatic Post-Processing Procedure for Isogeometric Topology Optimization Results

    Yuhao Yang1, Yingjun Wang1,*

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.2, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09068

    Abstract In the intelligent structural optimization, designers can obtain a high-performance design scheme automatically with the help of topology optimization (TO). Since computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided engineering (CAE) models have different geometric representations in TO, the optimized results must be reconstructed to generate CAD models, which is complicated and time-consuming. To address this issue, the isogeometric analysis (IGA) is employed in TO to replace the finite element method (FEM), and such TO is termed as isogeometric TO (ITO). ITO is an advanced TO method with high efficiency and accuracy. It uses the same non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) basis… More >

    Thermal-Mechanical Buckling and Postbuckling Analysis of Thin-Walled Structures Using a Reduced Order Method

    Ke Liang1,*, Zhen Yin1, Zheng Li1, Jiaqi Mu1

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.2, pp. 1-2, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09020

    Abstract Thermal-mechanical buckling has become one of the major failure modes of thin-walled structures which suffer from the high temperature service environment. These structures, such as plates and shells, are commonly involved in many branches of engineering, especially for the aerospace structures. Thermalmechanical buckling analysis plays an important role for lightweight design of aircrafts and launch vehicles, which significantly influences the load-carrying capability of the structure. Geometrical nonlinearities should be well considered to determine an accurate value of the critical buckling temperature/load as well as the postbuckling response.
    In this work, a reduced-order method is proposed for geometrically nonlinear thermal-mechanical analysis… More >

    Yanming Xu1,2, Leilei Chen1,2,*, Haojie Lian3

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.1, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.010581

    Abstract An isogeometric coupling algorithm based on the finite element method and the boundary element method (IGA-FEM/BEM) is proposed for the simulation of acoustic fluid-structure interaction and structuralacoustic topology optimization using the direct differentiation method. The geometries are constructed from triangular control meshes through Loop subdivision scheme. The effect of sound-absorbing materials on the acoustic response is characterized by acoustic impedance boundary conditions. The optimization problem is formulated in the framework of Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization methods and the sound absorption coefficients on elements are selected as design variables. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the validity and efficiency of… More >

    Abstract The storage of solar energy in the subsurface in terms of heat is considered as a promising way for energy storage and conversion in future, which has a great potential to solve the temporal and spatial mismatch between energy demand and supply. Thermal energy storage in deep saline aquifers is capable to convert intermittent solar energy into high temperature stable geothermal energy. In this study, we propose a new solar energy storage and conversion system in which solar energy is firstly converted into heat using parabolic trough and then thermal energy storage in deep saline aquifer is conducted by high… More >

    A Shape Optimization Approach for 3D Doubly-Periodic Multi-Layered Systems

    Haibo Chen1,*, Fuhang Jiang1

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.26, No.1, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.09414

    Abstract Acoustic wave propagation has been the subject of many studies in engineering and physics. Researchers have shown an increased interest in recent years in the acoustic scattering of periodic systems, such as phononic crystals and metamaterials [1]. These artificial periodic systems possess some particular acoustic characteristics including noise control, waveguides and negative refraction, which manifest excellent potential applicability in acoustic engineering. Based on the isogeometric acoustic boundary element method (BEM) [2], an efficient shape optimization approach is proposed in this research for threedimensional doubly-periodic multi-layered systems. The interfaces between different acoustic mediums are infinite doubly periodic surfaces, which can be… More >

    Understanding the Micromechanical Behaviors of Particle-Reinforced Al Composite by Nonlocal Crystal Plasticity Modeling

    Haiming Zhang1,2,*, Shilin Zhao1,2, Zhenshan Cui1,2

    The International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering and Sciences, Vol.25, No.4, pp. 1-1, 2023, DOI:10.32604/icces.2023.08884

    Abstract Particle-reinforced aluminum matrix composites (PRAMCs) have great potential for application in aerospace, automobile, defense, and electronics due to their high specific strength and stiffness and good resistance to wear and corrosion. Achieving a superior trade-off between the strength and ductility of PRAMCs necessitates an elaborative control of the microstructures, like the size and distribution of particles, as well as grain size, morphology, and texture of the matrix. The multiscale interaction between the particles and the matrix’s microstructure is insufficiently understood due to the lagging of high-resolved in-situ characterization. This work proposes a nonlocal physically based crystal plasticity (CP) modeling approach… More >

    Shahzad Noor Abbasi1, Shahzaib Ashraf1,*, M. Shazib Hameed1, Sayed M. Eldin2,*

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.137, No.3, pp. 2795-2844, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.028963

    Abstract The primary goal of this research is to determine the optimal agricultural field selection that would most effectively support manufacturing producers in manufacturing production while accounting for unpredictability and reliability in their decision-making. The PFS is known to address the levels of participation and non-participation. To begin, we introduce the novel concept of a PFZN, which is a hybrid structure of Pythagorean fuzzy sets and the ZN. The PFZN is graded in terms of membership and non-membership, as well as reliability, which provides a strong advice in real-world decision support concerns. The PFZN is a useful tool for dealing with… More >

    THERMO-GEOMETRIC PARAMETER EFFECTS ON CONVECTIVELY COOLED INHOMOGENEOUS RECTANGULAR FIN

    Ernest Léontin Lemouboua , Hervé Thierry Tagne Kamdema,* , Jean Roger Bogningb

    Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer, Vol.8, pp. 1-8, 2017, DOI:10.5098/hmt.8.34

    Abstract Numerical experiments involving heat transfer were performed to analyze the influence of both fin thermo-geometric parameter and cooling boundary conditions on the temperature distribution and the efficiency of convective cooled inhomogeneous rectangular fin. The inhomogeneity of the fin is due to both temperature dependent thermal conductivity and convection heat coefficients. The analysis was facilitated by the use of the differential transformation method, which can solve nonlinear differential equation. A specific application is first made for temperature/efficiency homogeneous fin predictions and the results are in excellent agreement with standard exact results. Predictions of inhomogeneous fin temperature and efficiency for three different… More >

    R. Rajaramana , L. Anna Gowsalyab,*, R. Velrajc

    Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer, Vol.11, pp. 1-8, 2018, DOI:10.5098/hmt.11.23

    Abstract To get accurate results in casting simulations, prediction of interfacial heat transfer coefficient (IHTC) is imperative. In this paper an attempt has been made for estimating IHTC during solidification process of a rectangular aluminium alloy casting in a sand mould. The cast temperature and mould temperature are measured during the experimental process at different time intervals during the process of solidification. Two different inverse methods, namely control volume and Beck’s approach are used to estimate the heat flux and temperature at the mould surface by using the experimentally measured temperatures. In the case of control volume technique, the partial derivative… More >
