AN IMPLICIT FORMULATION OF MATHEMATICAL PROGRAM WITH COMPLEMENTARITY CONSTRAINTS FOR APPLICATION TO ROBUST STRUCTURAL OPTIMIZATION

Journal of the Operations Research Society of Japan, 2011
This paper discusses an implicit reformulation of a class of MPEC (mathematical program with equilibrium constraints) problems. We particularly focus on an MPEC problem arising from the robust optimization of elastic structures subjected to the uncertain external load.

Topology and Material Optimization in Ultra‐Soft Magneto‐Active Structures: Making Advantage of Residual Anisotropies

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Residual magnetization induces pronounced mechanical anisotropy in ultra‐soft magnetorheological elastomers, shaping deformation and actuation even without external magnetic fields. This study introduces a computational‐experimental framework integrating magneto‐mechanical coupling into topology optimization for designing soft magnetic actuators with ...

Solving the Fuzzy Transportation Problem by a Novel Particle Swarm Optimization Approach

Applied Sciences
The fuzzy transportation problem (FTP) represents a significant extension of the classical transportation problem (TP) by introducing uncertainly and imprecision into the parameters involved.

Lattice‐Matched 2D Template Enables Efficient Cesium Tin Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Lattice‐matched 2D perovskite PEA2CsSn2I7 templates the out‐of‐plane growth of inorganic 3D γ‐CsSnI3 along the (110) plane, forming highly oriented 2D/3D tin halide perovskite heterostructures. With reduced trap states and mitigated δ‐phase impurities, the CsSnI3‐based solar cells achieve a power conversion efficiency of 15.27% and maintain stable ...

Thermally Modulated Metasurface Sensor for Dynamic and Time‐Resolved Isolation of Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A thermally adaptive plasmonic metasurface, functionalized with poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and anti‐CD63 antibodies, enables precise, on‐demand capture and release of extracellular vesicles (EVs). Delivering high recovery, improved purity, and intact vesicle structure, the platform offers a versatile, label‐free solution for real‐time EV ...

Complexity results and exact algorithms for robust knapsack problems. [PDF]

This paper studies the robust knapsack problem, for which solutions are, up to a certain point, immune to data uncertainty. We complement the works found in the literature where uncertainty affects only the profits or only the weights of the items by ...
