“…A broad discussion of optimization problems (vibration and buckling) and methods encountered in the analysis of laminated structures reinforced by PZT patches was presented in References [17,148,149]. Usually, the optimization technique was applied to find the best geometry of the location of PZT actuators/sensors on the top/bottom surfaces of structures.…”

Aeroelastic optimization has become an indispensable component in the evaluation of divergence and flutter characteristics for plated/shell structures. The present paper intends to review the fundamental trends and dominant approaches in the optimal design of engineering constructions. A special attention is focused on the formulation of objective functions/functional and the definition of physical (material) variables, particularly in view of composite materials understood in the broader sense as not only multilayered laminates but also as sandwich structures, nanocomposites, functionally graded materials, and materials with piezoelectric actuators/sensors. Moreover, various original aspects of optimization problems of composite structures are demonstrated, discussed, and reviewed in depth.

The light guide plate (LGP) printing process is used to obtain the optimal optical brightness, which requires the optimization of the LGP printing process parameters. This study analyzed the optical brightness optimization parameter design. This study integrated the back-propagation neural network (BPN) and a revised genetic algorithm (GA) to identify the optimal experimental level combination of the optical brightness parameter design. The obtained optical brightness process capability C pk by the proposed method was 1.73, which was better than the process capability C pk of 1.65 obtained by using the Taguchi method.

“…Recently, metal composite yarns and fabrics have been widely used in manufacturing smart and other personal protective clothing because of their properties such as flexibility, thermal expansion matching, and lightweight. Metal composite textiles are generally manufactured through the following methods: (1) lamination of conductive layers onto the surface of textiles, conductive coating and ionic plating [4,5]; (2) incorporation of metal composite yarns, fibers or fillers into non-conductive textiles [6]. The use of metal composite yarns in manufacturing metal composite fabrics will provide better wear and scratch resistance properties than the traditional lamination techniques [7][8][9].…”

Multifunctional metal composite yarns made of crisscross-section polyester (CSP), antibacterial nylon (AN), and stainless steel wires (SSW) were manufactured using a hollow spindle spinning machine. The core yarn, the inner wrapped yarn, and the outer wrapped yarns were SSW, AN, and CSP, respectively. Process parameters such as wrapping material content obviously influenced the tenacity, elongation, and surface morphology properties of the manufactured multifunctional metal composite yarns. These yarns were then woven into fabrics using a rapier loom. Woven fabric WC-8 was evaluated in terms of its mechanical properties, antibacterial activity, and electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE). Results showed that the use of SSW and AN in the metal composite yarns improved the antibacterial and EMSE of the woven fabric. Thus, these Downloaded by [Ryerson University] at 03:38 03 December 2014 2 metal composite woven fabrics can be used in manufacturing personal protective clothing to protect humans from electromagnetic radiation and bacterial cross-infection.
