CFD-based Optimization for Automotive Aerodynamics
The car drag reduction problem is a major topic in the automotive industry because of its close link with fuel consumption reduction. Until recently, a computational approach of this problem was unattainable because of its complexity and its computational cost. A first attempt in this direction has been presented by the present author as part of a collaborative work with the French car manufact...
متن کاملIdentification of rotor bearing parameters using vibration response data in a turbocharger rotor
Turbochargers are most widely used in automotive, marine and locomotive applications with diesel engines. To increase the engine performance nowadays, in aerospace applications also turbochargers are used. Mostly the turbocharger rotors are commonly supported over the fluid film bearings. With the operation, lubricant properties continuously alter leading to different load bearing capacities. T...

∗ E-mail: [email protected] # Tel: (216) 433-5855 Fax: (216) 433-5802 E-mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTION A multi-stage compressor design is a typical multiobjective problem (MOP) involving some competing objectives such as maximization of efficiency, maximization of total pressure ratio, maximization of mass flow rate, minimization of weight, maximization of durability, e...
متن کاملFragment-based Binding Efficiency Indices in Bioactive Molecular Design: A Computational Approach to BACE-1 Inhibitors
One of the most important targets in Alzheimer disease is Beta site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme-1 (BACE-1). It is a membrane associated protein and is one of the main enzymes responsible for amyloid β (Aβ) production. Up to now, a considerable number of peptidic and non-peptidic inhibitors of BACE-1 have been developed. Recently, small molecule BACE-1 inhibitors have attracted the...
متن کاملImproving the Design of Sails Using Cfd and Optimization Algorithms
Two current Stanford Yacht Research projects are presented, both related to the analysis and design of upwind sails, and part of a larger research effort to develop efficient and robust sail and hull shape optimisation methods. First, we discuss the in-house development of a methodology to predict and improve the flying shape and forces on America's Cup sails. We adapted and parallelized a 3D u...
