Minimization of Acoustic Potential Energy in Irregularly Shaped Cavities
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study presents a software design tool for solving active noise control problems in irregularly shaped cavities with continuous and noncontinuous design variables and appropriate constraints. ...
Optimal Design of a Pilot OTEC Power Plant in Taiwan
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, an optimal design concept has been utilized to find the best designs for a complex and large-scale ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) plant. The OTEC power plant under this ...
Surface Contact Analysis for a Spatial Cam Mechanism
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes and analyzes a new meshing condition between a modified hyperboloidal roller follower and a spatial cam surface. This new geometrical model can be utilized to avoid the ...
Enhancing Branch-and-Bound Method for Structural Optimization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The branch-and-bound method was originally developed to cope with difficulties caused by discontinuous design variables in linear programming. When the branch-and-bound method is applied to solve nonlinear programming (NLP) ...
