Published in 2017 at "Journal of the Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering"

DOI: 10.1007/s40430-016-0558-y

Abstract: In this research, an application algorithm, which can be used in computer-aided design/engineering (CAD/CAE) and structural optimisation-based design studies of agricultural machineries, is introduced. This developed algorithm has been put in practice in a case… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Engineering Structures"

DOI: 10.1016/j.engstruct.2018.09.026

Abstract: The difficulty to construct mechanically optimal shells may limit the use of structural optimisation in practice. The objective of this paper is to propose a new parametric representation of doubly curved shapes suited for structural… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Finite Elements in Analysis and Design"

DOI: 10.1016/j.finel.2017.03.005

Abstract: Abstract This paper proposes the introduction of a connectivity constraint in the Bi-directional Evolutionary Structural Optimisation (BESO) method, which avoids the possibility of arriving at highly non-optimal local optima. By developing a constraint that looks… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Latin American Journal of Solids and Structures"

DOI: 10.1590/1679-7825/e8385

Abstract: Abstract This study investigates the mechanical properties of reed straw under axial and radial compression using Micro-CT scanning, Mimics inverse reconstruction, and finite element analysis. Key findings reveal that nodal features play a crucial role… read more here.
