Optimal Design of a Dual-Pressure Steam Turbine for Rankine Cycle Based on Constructal Theory
Energies, 2022 A one-dimensional dual-pressure steam turbine (ST) model for the marine Rankine cycle is built in this paper. Based on constructal theory, the optimal design of the dual-pressure ST is performed with a fixed total volume of the high- and low-pressure STs.

Construction for Fashion Design [PDF]
, 2017 Construction is the foundation of fashion design; it takes passion and great skill to turn a two-dimensional drawing into a successful garment. Construction for Fashion Design guides readers through the process, teaching the theory, practical skills and techniques that they need to succeed.

Constructal theory of global circulation and climate [PDF]
, 2006 The constructal law states that every flow system evolves in time so that it develops the flow architecture that maximizes flow access under the constraints posed to the flow.

Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2022 This paper gives a review of the new Bejan's constructal theory and its various applications to design and optimization. According to Bejan, the objective and constraints principle used in engineering is the same mechanism from which the geometry in ...

Dendritic design as an archetype for growth patterns in Nature: fractal and constructal views [PDF]
, 2014 The occurrence of configuration (design, shape, structure, rhythm) is a universal phenomenon that occurs in every flow system. Dendritic configuration (or tree-shaped configurations) is ubiquitous in nature and likely to arise in both animate and ...

Designing for Automated Construction [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (IAARC), 1997 The majority of automated construction research and development has been bottom-up, from the construction/engineering side rather than top-down from the design end. Section 2 of this paper looks at precedents in automated construction research and identifies an apparent gap in design related themes.
