Free-form optimization of shell structures for maximizing elastic buckling load
This paper presents a free-form optimization method for maximizing the elastic buckling load of a shell structure. A shell structure is assumed to be movable in the normal or the tangent direction to the surface for the shape optimization.

Pluralistic Free-Form Image Completion
Image completion involves filling plausible contents to missing regions in images. Current image completion methods produce only one result for a given masked image, although there may be many reasonable possibilities. In this paper, we present an approach for pluralistic image completion—the task of generating multiple and diverse plausible solutions ...

Autonomous Tissue Scanning under Free-Form Motion for Intraoperative Tissue Characterisation
In Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS), tissue scanning with imaging probes is required for subsurface visualisation to characterise the state of the tissue. However, scanning of large tissue surfaces in the presence of deformation is a challenging task for

This article introduces the concept of blending fluid power with mechanical structure through addictive manufacturing. Today, fluid-powered devices are manufactured using conventional fabrication practices. The additive process enables integrated structure, actuation, fluid passages, thermal management, and control within a single fabrication process ...

Parameter-free shape identification method for frame structure with desired static deformation
In this paper, a free form optimization method is proposed for achieving a desired static deformation of a frame structure. Deformation control is one of the important problems in stiffness design of frame structures, and it also enables to give a ...

Free-Form Design of Rotor Blades [PDF]
This work investigates an integrated free-form approach for the design of rotor blades, where airfoil shapes are treated as unknowns. This leads to the simultaneous optimization of the chord, twist and structural design variables, together with the ...
