Isogeometric shape optimization of nonlinear, curved 3D beams and beam structures

open access: yesComputer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2019
Straight beams, rods and trusses are common elements in structural and mechanical engineering, but recent advances in additive manufacturing now also enable efficient freeform fabrication of curved, deformable beams and beam structures, such as ...

Defining Roles in Pediatric Palliative Care: Perspectives From Oncology and Palliative Care Teams

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Early integration of pediatric palliative care (PPC) is associated with improved symptom management, quality of life, and healthcare utilization for children with cancer. Despite this, variation persists in how PPC is understood, operationalized, and integrated within pediatric oncology programs. In particular, ambiguity surrounding

Fully turbulent discrete adjoint solver for non-ideal compressible flow applications

open access: yesJournal of the Global Power and Propulsion Society, 2017
Non-Ideal Compressible Fluid-Dynamics (NICFD) has recently been established as a sector of fluid mechanics dealing with the flows of dense vapors, supercritical fluids, and two-phase fluids, whose properties significantly depart from those of the ideal ...

An Improved Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization With TOPSIS and Fuzzy Logic for Optimizing Trapezoidal Labyrinth Weir

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
Labyrinth Weir (LW) is a popular control structure that passes a significantly higher flow rate compared to the linear weirs. In order to approach the optimal design of a trapezoidal LW, a multi-objective problem is defined to concurrently minimize the ...

Global optimization of complex optical structures using Baysian optimization based on Gaussian processes

open access: yes, 2017
Numerical simulation of complex optical structures enables their optimization with respect to specific objectives. Often, optimization is done by multiple successive parameter scans, which are time consuming and computationally expensive.

Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of Integrative Neuromuscular Training for Childhood Cancer Survivors: A Pilot Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often exhibit early deficits in muscle and movement competence, which can compromise long‐term health. Integrative neuromuscular training (INT), a multifaceted approach combining fundamental movement activities with strength exercises, may help address these deficits during ...

Non-Parametric Shape Optimization of a Football Boot Bottom Plate

open access: yesProceedings, 2020
This paper describes the non-parametric shape optimization process for a football boot bottom plate. The non-parametric shape optimization process changes the nodes’ location of a model and outputs an optimum shape, which satisfies an optimization ...

Blinatumomab Utilization in Pediatric B‐Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: Experience From the Mountain West

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Blinatumomab is a bispecific T‐cell engager approved for the treatment of pediatric B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL). Outpatient home infusion reduces hospitalization burden and optimizes resource utilization, but is logistically challenging.

Shape minimization of the dissipated energy in dyadic trees

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we study the role of boundary conditions on the optimal shape of a dyadic tree in which flows a Newtonian fluid. Our optimization problem consists in finding the shape of the tree that minimizes the viscous energy dissipated by the fluid ...

Data-driven constraint approach to ensure low-speed performance in transonic aerodynamic shape optimization

open access: yesAerospace Science and Technology, 2019
Aerodynamic shape optimization based on computational fluid dynamics has the potential to become more widely used in the industry; however, the optimized shapes are often criticized for not being practical. Techniques seeking more practical results, such
