Abstract: Flexible and compact shape representation schemes are essential for design optimization problems. Current shape representation schemes for coronary stent designs concern predominantly idealized or independent ring (IR) ...

Abstract: Abstract. Long-term product line planning often requires identifying a sequence of designs with small changes and progressively improved performance. This is to enable a gradual transition of users from an existing product ...

Abstract: In order to be practical, solutions of engineering design optimization problems must be robust, i.e., competent and reliable in the face of uncertainties. While such uncertainties can emerge from a number of sources ...

Abstract: In engineering design optimization, evaluation of a single solution (design) often requires running one or more computationally expensive simulations. Surrogate assisted optimization (SAO) approaches have long been used ...

Abstract: Reallife design problems often require simultaneous optimization of multiple conflicting criteria resulting in a set of best tradeoff solutions. This best tradeoff set of solutions is referred to as Pareto optimal front ...

Abstract: In recent years, evolutionary algorithms based on the concept of “decomposition” have gained significant attention for solving multi-objective optimization problems. They have been particularly instrumental in solving ...

Abstract: Engineering design often involves problems with multiple conflicting performance criteria, commonly referred to as multi-objective optimization problems (MOP). MOPs are known to be particularly challenging if the number ...
