Ideation is a source of innovation and creativity, and is commonly used in early stages of
engineering design processes. This paper proposes an integrated approach for enhancing …

Recently, design for additive manufacturing has been proposed to maximize product
performance through the rational and integrated design of the product, its materials, and …

Practicing design engineers often have certain knowledge about a design problem.
However, in the last decades, the design optimization community largely treats design …

Real-world designs usually consist of parts with interpart dependencies, ie, the geometry of
one part is dependent on one or multiple other parts. We can represent such dependency in …

Supervised machine learning techniques have proven to be effective tools for engineering
design exploration and optimization applications, in which they are especially useful for …

Ecodesign has gained significant traction in recent years ranging from academic research to
business applications at a global scale. Initial emphasis on the environmental aspect of …

A sampling approach is proposed for deriving profiles of an existing product design using
profile similarities and primitive shapes, such as circles, triangles, and ellipses, as …

One of the challenges in designing metamaterials for additive manufacturing (AM) is
accounting for the differences between as-designed and as-built geometries and material …

Abstract Robust Parametric Sensitivity Analysis (PSA) is a prerequisite for efficient shape
optimisation via parametric modelling. A major challenge PSA has to handle is related to the …

A central problem of materials science is to determine whether a hypothetical material is
stable without being synthesized, which is mathematically equivalent to a global …
