Structural Optimization
Liang-Jenq Leu, National Taiwan University
Chang-Wei Huang, Chung Yuan Christian University
This mini-symposium aims at bringing together researchers, academics and practicing engineers to discuss the latest advancements in optimization algorithms as applied to optimal design of material microarchitectures, devices, structures. Design optimization, including sizing, shape, and topology optimization, is increasingly being applied to complex engineering problems in solid and fluid mechanics, heat transfer, electro-magnetics and many other challenging multi-physics problems. This field based on computer-aided analysis covers closely related engineering techniques that are relevant to structural optimization in solid and fluid mechanics research. Contributions discussing general advancements in optimization methodologies, novel applications, incorporation of uncertainty as well as those addressing computational challenges in both the numerical representation of complex systems and optimization approaches to inverse solutions are invited. Topics of interest for this mini-symposium include, but are not limited to the following:
• New framework for structural optimization
• Structural optimization considering manufacture constraints
• Nonlinear structural optimization problems
• Microstructure design and multiscale structural optimization
• Multi-physics optimal design problems
• Structural optimal design considering uncertainties
