Numerical Simulation-based Design

This book focuses on numerical simulation-based design theory and methods in
mechanical engineering. The simulation-based design of mechanical equipmentinvolves considerable scientific challenges including extremely complex systems,extreme working conditions, multi-source uncertainties, multi-physics coupling, andlarge-scale computation. In order to overcome these technical difficulties, this booksystematically elaborates upon the advanced design methods, covering high-fidelitysimulation modeling, rapid structural analysis, multi-objective design optimization,uncertainty analysis and optimization, which can effectively improve the designaccuracy, efficiency, multi-functionality and reliability of complicated mechanicalstructures.
This book is primarily intended for researchers, engineers and postgraduate studentsin mechanical engineering, especially in mechanical design, numerical simulation andengineering optimization.

Presents advanced design methods based on numerical simulation Includes some of the foremost research and key technologies, including uncertainty optimization and precise modeling Includes numerous complex engineering examples in mechanical design
