1. A Note on the McCormick Second-Order Constraint Qualification
ABSTRACT The study of optimality conditions and constraint qualification is a key topic in nonlinear optimization. In this work, we present a reformulation of the well-known second-order constraint qualification described by McCormick in 17. This reformulation is based on the use of feasible arcs, but is independent of Lagrange multipliers. Using such a refo

2. Synthesis of Sparse Arrays Based On CIGA (Convex Improved Genetic Algorithm)
Abstract In this paper, a novel hybrid algorithm on beam pattern synthesis of sparse arrays is proposed, which aims at minimizing the peak sidelobe level (PSLL). Sparse arrays can provide higher spatial resolution and relatively lower sidelobe than general arrays, but it is necessary to solve the multi-constraint problem of nonconvex nonlinear. Thus, we prop

4. Aerothermodynamic Optimization of Aerospace Plane Airfoil Leading Edge
ABSTRACT: Aiming to mitigate the aerodynamic heating during hypersonic re-entry, the aerothermodynamic optimization of aerospace plane airfoil leading edge is conducted. Lift-to-drag ratio at landing condition is taken as a constraint to ensure the landing aerodynamic performance. First, airfoil profile is parametrically described to be more advantageous dur

5. Multidisciplinary Design Optimization of UAV Under Uncertainty
ABSTRACT: Uncertainty-based multidisciplinary design optimization considers probabilistic variables and parameters and provides an approach to account for sources of uncertainty in design optimization. The aim of this study was to apply a decoupling uncertainty-based multidisciplinary design optimization method without any dependence on probability mathemati

6. A Model Predictive Guidance Strategy for a Multirotor Aerial Vehicle
ABSTRACT: The present study faces the problem of safely controlling the position trajectory of a multirotor aerial vehicle subjected to a conic constraint on the total thrust vector and a linear convex constraint on the position vector. The problem is solved using a linear state-space model predictive control strategy, whose optimization is made handy by rep

7. Design Optimization of a Random Suspension Device Considering a Reliability Constraint on the Frequency Response Function
Abstract This work deals with the design of a suspension device, idealized as a spring-mass-damper system. The amplitude of a nominal system is constrained to satisfy certain limitations in a given frequency band and the design is to be done as a reliability-based optimization. This constitutes a major difficulty since the constraint becomes a random process

8. Structure Synthesis and Optimization of Feed Support Mechanisms for a Deployable Parabolic Antenna
ABSTRACT In this paper, a systematic method to synthesize parallel mechanisms for feed support mechanisms based on screw theory is proposed. First, the motion requirement of the feed support mechanism is studied. Then, a class of parallel mechanisms having a translational motion with different degrees of freedom is synthesized based on the constraint-synthes

9. Structural Topology Optimization Based on the Smoothed Finite Element Method
Abstract In this paper, the smoothed finite element method, incorporated with the level set method, is employed to carry out the topology optimization of continuum structures. The structural compliance is minimized subject to a constraint on the weight of material used. The cell-based smoothed finite element method is employed to improve the accuracy and sta

11. An efficient method of EM field modification around transmitting stations
AbstractAn efficient practical method for the electromagnetic (EM) fields reduction around transmitting stations has been developed. The project has been stimulated by the necessity to reduce the field levels in the vicinity of transmitting stations, including FM, UHF, cellular base stations and other radiocommunication services, to obey regulations concerni

12. Topological derivative-based topology optimization of structures subject to multiple load-cases
AbstractThe topological derivative measures the sensitivity of a shape functional with respect to an infinitesimal singular domain perturbation, such as the insertion of holes, inclusions or source-terms. The topological derivative has been successfully applied in obtaining the optimal topology for a large class of physics and engineering problems. In this p
