SHAPE OPTIMIZATION OF CLOSED-BOX GIRDER CONSIDERING DYNAMIC AND AERODYNAMIC EFFECTS ON FLUTTER: A CFD-ENABLED AND KRIGING SURROGATE-BASED STRATEGY

Shape optimization of closed-box girder considering dynamic and aerodynamic effects on flutter: a CFD-enabled and Kriging surrogate-based strategy

Shape optimization of single box girder allows the bridge to achieve the most favourable aerodynamic performance.Currently, aerodynamic optimization of bridge deck is usually achieved by traversing all potential schemes using wind tunnel tests or computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which are time-consuming, laborious, and restricted to few numbers

Development of Dual-Unit Ceiling Adhesion Robot System With Passive Hinge for Obstacle Traversal Under Kinodynamic Constraints

The inspection of high ceilings or surfaces is important to ensure the quality and safety of infrastructure; however, the approach adopted by people or conventional robots is rather limited.Kinodynamic constraints (simultaneous kinematic and dynamic constraints) are presented by obstacles in Dry Oil real-life scenarios, such as suspended piping and
