Good Internet connectivity has become a basic necessity all over the world. Although more than one-third of global population does not have access to [46], commercial network operators claim that today's reached user footprint seems commercially viable serve [22]. Reaching these users requires reducing cost providing enable actors beyond traditional, large-scale build sustainable, scalable infrastructure. Operators need effective ways reduce costs through less expensive equipment and...
This paper describes a problem of axisymmetric shell optimization under fracture mechanics and geometric constraints. The is formulated as the weight (volume material) minimization meridional contour taken design variable. made from quasi-brittle materials through cracks arising are admitted. It supposed that loaded by cyclic forces. A crack propagation process related to stress intensity factor described Paris fatigue law. finding meridian shape (geometric variable), having smallest mass...
Abstract The problem of contact pressure optimization is formulated for the case rigid punch interacted with elastic medium. Coupling penetration and action external loads at outside regions taken into account. shape considered as an unknown design variable. minimized integral functional characterizes discrepancy between actual required distribution. studied under condition that total forces moments applied to acted are given.

All investigations are on whole founded analytical variational approaches optimal solutions studied as function...
We consider an infinite, homogenous linearly elastic beam resting on a system of supports, as idealized model for paper web in the middle cylinder-based dryer section. obtain closed-form analytical expressions eigenfrequencies and eigenmodes. The frequencies increase support rigidity is increased. Each frequency bounded from above by solution with absolutely rigid below limit vanishing rigidity. Thus real system, natural will be lower than predicted commonly used models supports.
Problems of optimal design piece-wise homogeneous layered plates consisting from different materials against penetration absolutely rigid strikers are considered. The number is assumed to be finite and consequently the set admissible variables composed discrete values. Various axisymmetric bodies having cylindrical, conical truncated nose parts considered as strikers. finding plate structures providing maximal ballistic limit velocity minimal mass solved using evolutionary method global...

Key words: structural optimization, contact interaction, probabilistic approach.
The paper considers the analysis of a traveling panel, submerged in axially flowing fluid. In order to accurately model dynamics and stability lightweight moving material, interaction between material surrounding air must be taken into account. leads inertial contribution acceleration panel becoming significant. This formulation is novel case complements our previous studies on field. approach described this allows for an efficient semi-analytical solution, where reaction pressure fluid flow...
