D6.1 Deterministic optimization software

open access: yes, 2020
This deliverable focuses on the implementation of deterministic optimization algorithms and problem solvers within KRATOS open-source software. One of the main challenges of optimization algorithms in Finite-Element based optimization is how to get the gradient of response functions which are used as objective and constraints when this is not ...

Model Reduction using a Frequency-Limited H2-Cost

open access: yes, 2012
We propose a method for model reduction on a given frequency range, without the use of input and output filter weights. The method uses a nonlinear optimization approach to minimize a frequency limited H2 like cost function.

The energy absorption capacity of a novel dual-sub-fold Miura foldcore subjected to axial crushing

open access: yesMaterials & Design
A modified Miura foldcore geometry was developed by introducing sub-folds into the cell walls of a conventional Miura foldcore. Similar to other sub-fold Miura foldcores, stable plastic hinge lines were generated at sub-fold sites under the guidance of ...
