A new bio-inspired optimization algorithm called artificial hummingbird algorithm (AHA) is
proposed in this work to solve optimization problems. The AHA algorithm simulates the …

This study presents a new nature-inspired optimization algorithm, namely the Mantis Search
Algorithm (MSA), inspired by the unique hunting behavior and sexual cannibalism of praying …

In this study, we propose a novel computational framework for designing innovative self-
expandable femoral stents. First, a two-dimensional stent unit cell is designed by inverse …

A flexible problem-specific multiscale topology optimization is introduced to associate
different areas of the design domain with diverse microstructures extracted from a dictionary …

Although various structural optimization techniques have a sound mathematical basis, the
structural robustness and practical constructability of optimal designs pose a great challenge …

We present a new algorithm for the design of the connection region between different lattice
materials. We solve a Stokes-type topology optimization problem on a narrow morphing …

Structural optimization is part of the mechanical engineering field and, in most cases, tries to
minimize the overall weight of a given design domain, subjected to functionality constraints …

We present a new algorithm to design lightweight cellular materials with required properties
in a multi-physics context. In particular, we focus on a thermo-elastic setting by promoting the …

We present a new recovery-based anisotropic error estimator for discontinuous Galerkin
finite element approximations of advection-diffusion problems. We propose a metric-based …

We propose a method to modify a polygonal mesh in order to fit the zero-isoline of a level set
function by extending a standard body-fitted strategy to a tessellation with arbitrarily-shaped …
