Shape optimization of microlenses
Microlenses are highly attractive for optical applications such as super resolution and photonic nanojets, but their design is more demanding than the one of larger lenses because resonance effects play an important role, which forces one to perform a full wave analysis.

Designing an Optimal Shape Warehouse [PDF]
The paper addresses the topic of designing the shape of a warehouse and shows a comparison between a standard storage-handling system, which is designed taking into account the minimization of the handling planar path, and the one which is designed trying to minimizing the overall handling energy consumption.
