Engineering optimization

Engineering optimization is the subject which uses optimization techniques to achieve design goals in engineering. It is sometimes referred to as design optimization.

Topics

• structural design (including pressure vessel design and welded beam design)
• shape optimization
• topology optimization (including airfoils)
• inverse optimization (a subset of the inverse problem)
• processing planning
• product designs
• electromagnetic optimization
• space mapping
• aggressive space mapping
• yield-driven design
• optimization exploiting surrogates (surrogate model)
