...Carolyn Conner Seepersad; Janet K. Allen; David L. McDowell; Farrokh Mistree Prismatic cellular or honeycomb materials exhibit favorable properties for multifunctional applications such as ultralight load bearing combined with active cooling. Since these properties are strongly dependent...

... support problem is investigated as an effective design approach for this domain. In the example application considered, thermally efficient computer server cabinet configurations that are insensitive to variations in operating conditions are determined. The computer servers are cooled by turbulent...

... allowable temperature T allow . This objective indirectly minimizes the amount of coolant required to cool the blade. The minimization of this objective could result in the reduction of the number of cooling passages as well. The objective function is computed by integrating heat flux...

...Jinhua Huang; Georges M. Fadel This paper presents a two-step methodology for the bi-objective optimization design of heterogeneous injection mold cooling systems to achieve simultaneously fast and uniform cooling. During the first step, a single fundamental mold material selected from the material...
