Two companion papers, summarizing the numerical/experimental activity performed within the RIBES project, have been accepted for publication in ASCE’s Journal of Aerospace Engineering after a long peer review process. The first work, titled “Wind Tunnel Model Design and Aeroelastic Measurements of the RIBES Wing” recall the setup of the aeroelastic experimental campaign performed on the […]
BIOMA is a key conference specifically focusing on bioinspired optimisation methods and their applications. This international conference provides an opportunity to the global research community in bioinspired optimisation to discuss recent research results and develop new ideas and collaborations in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. In the speech titled Bio-Inspired Optimization Based on BGM and […]
RBF Morph joined the 36th International CAE Conference and Exhibition that was held online from November 30th to December 4th 2020 and participated as a Silver Exhibitor. The theme for this year’s edition iwas “At the epicenter of the digital transformation of industry” and this virtual evolution of the event greatly highlighted this strategic role. […]
An interesting article titled A Novel Formulation for the Study of the Ascending Aortic Fluid Dynamics with In Vivo Data has been published on the Medical Engineering & Physics (available online 18 September 2020). Numerical simulations to evaluate thoracic aortic hemodynamics include a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach or fluid-structure interaction (FSI) approach. While CFD neglects […]
At Esteco UM20 our CTO Marco E. Biancolini showed how advanced mesh morphing allows creating a set of shape variations which intensities can be combined to get the resulting performance together with its derivatives, thanks to the adjoint sensitivity. The computational cost (a CFD run and an adjoint one) stays the same whatever is the number […]
Over the last decade, electronic products have become increasingly complex and dense as they support more functions into dramatically reduced footprints. The need for flexible circuits has grown exponentially, since they are often the preferred solution to achieve package weight-reduction, compared to rigid planar boards. Flexible Circuit Boards are distinctly patterned circuitry and component arrangement […]
CAD and CAE model update on manufactured shapes is a key process in the industry 4.0, where design, manufacturing and maintenance are integrated elements. Digital Twin models, together with Reverse Engineering techniques, allow tracking components performances during production and verifying the compliance with design requirements during the component lifetime. The need to have RE processes […]
In the conference paper titled Advanced Radial Basis Functions Mesh Morphing for High Fidelity Fluid-Structure Interaction with Known Movement of the Walls: Simulation of an Aortic Valve – ICCS International Conference on Computational Science 2020 – , a fast high fidelity workflow for a multi-physic Fluid-Structure Interaction analysis exploiting ANSYS Workbench and RBF Morph is given. High fidelity is gained […]
In the conference paper Radial Basis Functions Mesh Morphing presented at the ICCS International Conference on Computational Science 2020, a brief introduction about RBF mesh morphing is given with a special focus on the selection of the radial function. Among the many available options two well adopted ones have been considered in detail: the bi-harmonic spline (BHS) and […]
A very interesting article having title Automatic shape optimisation of structural parts driven by BGM and RBF mesh morphing has been published on the International Journal of Mechanical Sciences Volume 183 – available online 25 July 2020 – Authors: S. Porziani; C. Groth; W. Waldman; M.E. Biancolini. Abstract The great flexibility of emerging production processes based on additive manufacturing is stimulating the development of automatic shape […]
