Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDynamic Behavior of Tyre Tread BlockK. Sridharan, R. SivaramakrishnanThe Tyre tread pattern is the arrangement of blocks, grooves and voids, sipes and channels designed into the tread to enhance its grip on the road. Tread is the uppermost part of any tyre which contact into the road and it has its own performance towards mileage, traction, low noise and heat built up properties. It would be meaningful to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Jul 2012 · 9,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMINLP Optimization of Mechanical StructuresS. Šilih, T. Žula, Z. Kravanja, S. KravanjaWe presented optimization of mechanical structures, performed by the Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization approach. The MINLP is a combined continuous/discrete optimization technique, where a structural topology and standard/discrete sizes are optimized simultaneously with the continuous variables. Ddiscrete binary 0-1 variables were used to express the discrete decisions. For solution of this non-linear, continuous/discrete and non-convex MINLP class of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,125 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractTopological Approaches to Mechatronic Systems: A ReviewJean Bosco Samon, Damasse Harold TchouazongAn interest in the mechanical topology approach is to reduce the mass considerably in order to minimize the costs of manufacturing, transporting and purchasing products. The same interest can be found in mechatronic topological approaches where many disciplines should be fit together, facing therefore many and variant constraints. Distinguish topological approaches are found in the literature. Many are more specific … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2022 · 6,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling, Simulation and Optimization of Steel Sandwich Panels under Blast LoadingSayed M. Soleimani, Nader H. Ghareeb, Nourhan H. ShakerHoneycomb sandwich panels are commonly preferred in structural engineering as a design element meant to protect against blast loading, and this owes primarily to the fact that they are light in weight (due to the voids present) whilst carrying high energy absorption capacities. A widespread surge in acts of terrorism, and the resultant threat posed to structures, presents structural engineers … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 24 Aug 2018 · 7,858 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractInternational Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research: A New Open Platform for Materials ScienceChiara Bedon, Mario D’Aniello, Andreas Luible, Flavio StochinoEditorial The International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research (IJSGAMR) is a new peer-reviewed, open access journal, which covers all aspects of theoretical and practical research of materials science. The journal aims to promote international exchange of knowledge and broad discussion on advancements, outcomes and recent developments in materials research for engineering applications. In the last years, the … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 17 May 2017 · 13,690 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing a Truss-Inspired Model with the Uniform Strength Optimization Theory to Predict Spongy Bone Geometry in Proximal FemurHamed Pishdast, Farzam Farahmand, Gholamreza RouhiThis paper presents a new naïve approach for simulating bone remodeling process. It is based on the uniform strength theory of optimization and employs a truss-like model for bone. The truss was subjected to external loads including 5 point loads simulating the hip joint contact forces and 3 muscular forces at the attachment sites of the muscles to the bone … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClosed Die Forging Geometrical Parameters Optimization for Al-MMCM. Jolgaf, S.B. Sulaiman, M.K.A Ariffin, A.A. FaiezaDemand for lighter and stiffer products has been increasing in the last few years especially in automobile manufacturing. The closed die forging process of Metal Matrix Material (MMC) is presented as possible solution, since it produces parts with good mechanical properties and lighter weight. A computational modeling of closed die forging process using finite element method and optimization techniques makes … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Optimization of a Porous Ti6Al4V Bone Construct Using Additive ManufacturingJeffrey Wilk, Glenn Sanders, Shelby Marks et al.Patient specific implants are becoming viable treatment options in some orthopaedic applications through advances in additive manufacturing and 3D printing techniques. One potential application is for treatment of segmental bone defects, particularly in patients suffering from bone cancer. Current treatment options are: Amputation, megaprosthesis, or allografts. These treatments are often highly invasive, may require a partial/full joint replacement and are … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2017 · 7,811 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInclusion Identification by Inverse Application of Boundary Element Method, Genetic Algorithm and Conjugate Gradient MethodMahmud Khodadad, Mohsen Dashti ArdakaniCharacterization of the interior of an inhomogeneous body using displacement measurements obtained by conducting a simple tension test was investigated. A homogeneous elastic solid body is assumed to have another solid body with arbitrary shape hidden inside it. The shape and physical properties of this inclusion were unknown. The Boundary Element Method (BEM) coupled with a mete heuristic Genetic Algorithm … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,758 accessesView PDFCite
