Optimization
Algorithm development for optimization
Background & Overview
The question “How to create an algorithm that will perform the design process more efficiently and reliably?” is what got our founder, Dr. Vanderplaats started on his journey on algorithm development for optimization problems.
Case Study
Design of rear drive unit with stress constraints

- Rear drive unit casing developed using optimization methodology that incorporates stress constraints.
- Rear drive unit casing stresses were found to be reasonable and comparable to baseline performance.
- Casing stresses, strict stiffness targets and NVH targets were included and met.
- All this was accomplished with a final mass having of 32% over the baseline.

Learning Optimization
Optimization involves solving a problem of the type
Iteratively solving for a set of design variables resulting in an optimum very rapidly.
