The concept of shape-manifold is applied here to the optimization of a deep drawn blank considering parameterized tool geometries. By adopting this concept, a realistic post-springback shape of the blank closest to a given ideal target shape is obtained. The global approach is fully automated, from the generation of the tool geometries, to the identification of the optimized design parameters. ...

We study the problem of optimizing the face elements of a quad mesh surface, that is, resampling a given quad mesh to make it possess, as much as possible, face elements of some desired aspect ratio and size. Unlike previous quad mesh optimization/improvement methods based on local operations on a small group of elements, we adopt a global approach that does not introduce extra singularities an...

In the context of structural optimization via a level-set method we propose a framework to handle geometric constraints related to a notion of local thickness. The local thickness is calculated using the signed distance function to the shape. We formulate global constraints using integral functionals and compute their shape derivatives. We discuss different strategies and possible approximation...

Detection of decay and restoration tooth has done by dentists up to now. We need to change this produce using intelligent application. In future new systems will be able to repair decay and restoration tooth without a dentist intervention. We need to start to research in about intelligent of detection of decay and restoration tooth. In the recent years there is severe competition in fast and hi...

 Dental implants, as a result of their excellent success rates and advantages over fixed or removable methods, have become the optimal treatment for replacing missing teeth. Surgical and restorative techniques that can reduce the loss of hard and soft tissues that often accompany implant placement are desirable. Achieving an esthetic outcome in tooth replacement and implant treatment requires a...

The goal of this paper is to improve the performance of an electric motor by modifying the geometry of a specific part of the iron core of its rotor. To be more precise, the objective is to smooth the rotation pattern of the rotor. A shape optimization problem is formulated by introducing a tracking-type cost functional to match a desired rotation pattern. The magnetic field generated by perman...

In this paper, we focus on the following general shape optimization problem: min{J(Ω), Ω convex, Ω ∈ Sad}, where Sad is a set of 2-dimensional admissible shapes and J : Sad → R is a shape functional. Using a specific parameterization of the set of convex domains, we derive some extremality conditions (first and second order) for this kind of problem. Moreover, we use these optimality conditions...

the shape of wake behind a wind turbine is normally assumed to have a hat shape for the models used in wind farm layout optimization purposes; however, it is know from experimental tests and numerical simulations that this is not a real assumption. in reality, the results of actual measurements and detailed numerical simulation show that the velocity in wake region has a s-shape profile. the pr...
