State of the Art on Computational Design of Assemblies with Rigid Parts

Mark Pauly, Peng Song

An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or functionality. Designing assemblies is a non-trivial task as a slight local modification on a part's geometry or its joining method could have a global impact on ...

Geometric optimization of dielectric elastomer electrodes for dynamic applications

Herbert Shea, Bekir Aksoy, Emil Yan Garnell

Dielectric elastomers are soft actuators, made of an elastomer membrane sandwiched by compliant electrodes. Because of their high energy density and quick response, they are well suited for dynamic applications such as loudspeakers. Thanks to progress in t ...

Algebraic and Boolean Optimization Methods for AQFP Superconducting Circuits

Giovanni De Micheli, Eleonora Testa, Heinz Riener, Siang-Yun Lee

Adiabatic quantum-flux-parametron (AQFP) circuits are a family of superconducting electronic (SCE) circuits that have recently gained growing interest due to their low-energy consumption, and may serve as alternative technology to overcome the down-scalin ...

Reality-assisted evolution of soft robots through large-scale physical experimentation: a review

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Simon Lukas Hauser

We introduce the framework of reality-assisted evolution to summarize a growing trend towards combining model-based and model-free approaches to improve the design of physically embodied soft robots. In silico, data-driven models build, adapt, and improve ...

Turning PathFinder Upside -Down: 1-4,xploring FPGA Switch -Blocks by Negotiating Switch Presence

Paolo Ienne, Stefan Nikolic

Automated switch-block exploration gains in importance as technology scaling brings more emphasis on the physical constraints, making it insufficient to rely on abstract measures of routability alone. In this work, we take an approach that significantly di ...

Modelling and process optimization for biodiesel production from Nannochloropsis salina using artificial neural network

Edgard Gnansounou

In the present investigation, calcium oxide solid nanocatalyst derived from the egg shell and Nannochloropsis salina were used for the production of biodiesel. The morphological characteristics and functional groups of synthesized nanocatalyst was characte ...

Multilevel screening of computation-ready, experimental metal-organic frameworks for natural gas purification

Yi Zhang, Berend Smit, Zhi Li

In this study, traditional Monte Carlo simulation and density functional theory-based structural optimization methods were combined to screen computation-ready experimental metal-organic framework (MOF) database for the application of natural gas purificat ...

Global optimization of an encapsulated Si/SiO2L3 cavity with a 43 million quality factor

Vincenzo Savona, Juan Pablo Vasco Cano

We optimize a silica-encapsulated silicon L3 photonic crystal cavity for ultra-high quality factor by means of a global optimization strategy, where the closest holes surrounding the cavity are varied to minimize out-of-plane losses. We find an optimal val ...

Modeling Supply Chain Disruptions: A Network Flow Approach

René Yves Glogg

Globalization, outsourcing and cost optimization have all contributed to increased supply chain vulnerability, yet our understanding of effective mitigation strategies remains limited. In our research, we study the effects of disruptions on supply chain ne ...

3D Weaving with Curved Ribbons

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Tian Chen, Yingying Ren, Samuel Jean Bernard Poincloux, Christopher Brandt

Basket weaving is a traditional craft for creating curved surfaces as an interwoven array of thin, flexible, and initially straight ribbons. The three-dimensional shape of a woven structure emerges through a complex interplay of the elastic bending behavio ...
