3D interactive topology optimization on hand-held devices

This educational paper describes the implementation aspects, user interface design considerations and workflow potential of the recently published TopOpt 3D App. The app solves the standard minimum compliance problem in 3D and allows the user to change design settings interactively at any point in time during the optimization. Apart from its educational nature, the app may point towards future ways of performing industrial design. Instead of the usual geometrize, then model and optimize approach, the geometry now automatically adapts to the varying boundary and loading conditions. The app is freely available for iOS at Apple’s App Store and at http://www.topopt.dtu.dk/TopOpt3D for Windows and OSX.     

Experiment and multiobjective optimization design of tape-spring hinges

Flexible tape-spring hinges can be folded elastically and are able to self-deploy by releasing stored strain energy with fewer component parts and slight weights. This study presents a detailed investigation of the folding and deployment of single-layer tape-spring (SLTS) hinges and double-layer tape-spring (DLTS) hinges under pure bend loading. The material properties of tape-spring hinges are measured using an INSTRON machine. A DLTS hinge construction is created, and its moment-rotation relationship during quasi-static deployment is measured. An experiment is conducted to verify the validation of the numerical models for the DLTS hinges. The quasi-static deployment behavior of SLTS hinges and DLTS hinges is then analyzed using nonlinear finite element ABAQUS/Explicit solver, starting from the complete folded configuration. The DLTS hinge has good quasi-static deployment performances with regard to maximum stress (S _m ), steady moment (M ^*) and the peak moment (M _d ) during the DLTS hinge quasi-static deployment. In addition, the sampling designs of the DLTS hinges are created based on a three-level full factorial design of experiments (DOE) method. The surrogate models of S _m , M ^* and M _d of the DLTS hinges are derived using response surface method (RSM) to reduce the computational cost of quasi-static folding and deployment of numerical simulations. The Multiobjective optimization design (MOD) of the DLTS hinge is performed using modified non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) algorithm to achieve the optimal design. The finite element models for the optimal design based on numerical method are established to validate the optimization results.

Comparative evaluation of performance measures for human driving skills

In this paper, we evaluate the adequacy of several performance measures for the evaluation of driving skills between different drivers. This work was motivated by the need for a training system that captures the driving skills of an expert driver and transfers the skills to novice drivers using a haptic-enabled driving simulator. The performance measures examined include traditional task performance measures, e.g., the mean position error, and a stochastic distance between a pair of hidden Markov models (HMMs), each of which is trained for an individual driver. The emphasis of the latter is on the differences between the stochastic somatosensory processes of human driving skills. For the evaluation, we developed a driving simulator and carried out an experiment that collected the driving data of an expert driver whose data were used as a reference for comparison and of many other subjects. The performance measures were computed from the experimental data, and they were compared to each other. We also collected the subjective judgement scores of the driver’s skills made by a highly-experienced external evaluator, and these subjective scores were compared with the objective performance measures. Analysis results showed that the HMM-based distance metric had a moderately high correlation between the subjective scores and it was also consistent with the other task performance measures, indicating the adequacy of the HMM-based metric as an objective performance measure for driving skill learning. The findings of this work can contribute to developing a driving simulator for training with an objective assessment function of driving skills.
