Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMulti-Objective Evolutionary Optimization of Sandwich Structures: An Evaluation by Elitist Non-dominated Sorting Evolution StrategyIlyani Akmar, A.B, O. Kramer, T. RabczukIn this study, an application of evolutionary multi-objective optimization algorithms on the optimization of sandwich structures is presented. The solution strategy is known as Elitist Non-Dominated Sorting Evolution Strategy (ENSES) wherein Evolution Strategies (ES) as Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) in the elitist Non-dominated Sorting Genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) procedure. Evolutionary algorithm seems a compatible approach to resolve multi-objective optimization problems because it … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2015 · 7,323 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStatic and Dynamic Performance Improvement of Conventional Computer Numerical Control Machine Tool Bed with Hybrid Welded SteelS.S. Abuthakeer, P.V. Mohanram, G. MohankumarProblem statement: The advancements in machine tools to maximize the production by increasing spindle speeds have caused vibration in machine tools. The two functional requirements of machine tool bed for machine tools are high structural stiffness and high damping, which cannot be satisfied simultaneously if conventional metallic materials such as cast iron are employed. Hence there is a need to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 11,479 accessesView PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite
