Multidiscipline Design Optimization
This book describes numerical optimization techniques, with emphasis on application to engineering design. These methods may be used to minimize/maximize one or more functions with limits, or constraints, on others. Optimization may be used with almost any computer based analysis program to efficiently improve an engineering design. Chapter 1 presents basic concepts of function minimization. Chapter 2 describes methods for minimizing unconstrained functions of many variables. Chapter 4 through 8 deal with general constrained optimization. These first eight chapters providethe building blocks for Multidiscipline Design Optimization. Chapter 9 describes the specific subjec tof structural optimization and Chapter 10 deals with general applications in mechanical, automotive and aerospaceengineering. These two chapters deal with single discipline optimization. Chapter 11 brings it all together for the design of systems considering several disciplines. This chapter provides an engineering approach to Multidiscipline design optimization that has proved to be effective in industrial applications. Numerous references are provided for further study.
Numerical Optimization Techniques for Engineering Design

Chapter 10 describes the specific subject of structural optimization and Chapter 11 deals with general applications in mechanical, automotive and aerospace engineering. Numerous references are provided for further study. A CD-ROM is included which contains demonstration versions of the VisualDOC and DOT general optimization programs and the GENESIS structural optimization program from Vanderplaats Research & Development.
Analytic Methods for Design Practice
In the world of modern engineering, rigorous and definite design methodologies are needed. However, many parts of engineering design are performed in either an ad-hoc manner or based on the intuition of the engineer. This is the first book to look at both stages of the design process – conceptual design and detailed design – and detail design methodologies for every step of the design process. Case studies show how practical design problems can be solved with analytic design methods. This book is an excellent introduction to the subject. The book’s practical focus will make the book useful to practicing engineers as a practical handbook of design.
Computer Aided Optimal Design: Structural and Mechanical Systems
This book contains the edited version of lectures and selected papers presented at the NATO ADVANCED STUDY INSTITUTE ON COMPUTER AIDED OPTIMAL DESIGN: Structural and Mechanical Systems, held in Tr6ia, Portugal, 29th June to 11th July 1986, and organized by CEMUL -Center of Mechanics and Materials of the Technical University of Lisbon. The Institute was attended by 120 participants from 21 countries, including leading scientists and engineers from universities, research institutions and industry, and Ph.D. students. Some participants presented invited and contributed papers during the Institute and almost all participated actively in discussions on scientific aspects during the Institute. The...
Computational Mechanics ’88
The aim of this Conference was to become a forum for discussion of both academic and industrial research in those areas of computational engineering science and mechanics which involve and enrich the rational application of computers, numerical methods, and mechanics, in modern technology. The papers presented at this Conference cover the following topics: Solid and Structural Mechanics, Constitutive Modelling, Inelastic and Finite Deformation Response, Transient Analysis, Structural Control and Optimization, Fracture Mechanics and Structural Integrity, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Compressible and Incompressible Flow, Aerodynamics, Transport Phenomena, Heat Transfer and Solidification, Electromagnetic Field, Related Soil Mechanics and MHD, Modern Variational Methods, Biomechanics, and Off-Shore-Structural Mechanics.
Advances in Structural Optimization
Advances in Structural Optimization presents the techniques for a wide set of applications, ranging from the problems of size and shape optimization (historically the first to be studied) to topology and material optimization. Structural models are considered that use both discrete and finite elements. Structural materials can be classical or new. Emerging methods are also addressed, such as automatic differentiation, intelligent structures optimization, integration of structural optimization in concurrent engineering environments, and multidisciplinary optimization. For researchers and designers in industries such as aerospace, automotive, mechanical, civil, nuclear, naval and offshore. A reference book for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses on structural optimization and optimum design.
