The paper proposes a numerical computation technique for anisotropically evolving yield surfaces based on micro–to–macro transitions. The underlying model of the finite crystal plasticity and the homogenization approach have previously been formulated by Miehe et al. [2]. The technique proposed has the following two central aspects, firstly a criterion for the determination of the macroscopic yield point is introduced which is based on the physically relevant mechanisms on the microscale and secondly, as a key point of the methodology, total unloading is applied to the representative volume element (RVE) before the yield surface for the corresponding microstructure is determined. The explained method is applied to a Taylor type polycrystalline material model. With respect to the validation of the proposed concept different tests are performed for various preloading conditions and comparisons with experimental findings are provided.

Optimal load and resistance factor design of geometrically nonlinear steel space frames via tabu search and genetic algorithm
DEĞERTEKİN, SADIK ÖZGÜR; Saka, M. P.; HAYALİOĞLU, MEHMET SEDAT (Elsevier BV, 2008-01-01)
In this paper, algorithms are presented for the optimum design of geometrically nonlinear steel space frames using tabu search and genetic algorithm. Tabu search utilizes the features of short-term memory facility (tabu list) and aspiration criteria. Genetic algorithm employs reproduction, crossover and mutation operators. The design algorithms obtain minimum weight frames by selecting suitable sections from a standard set of steel sections such as American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) wide-flange...
Automated Sizing of Truss Structures Using a Computationally Improved SOPT Algorithm
Hasançebi, Oğuzhan (2013-06-01)
The present study attempts to apply an efficient yet simple optimization (SOPT) algorithm to optimum design of truss structures under stress and displacement constraints. The computational efficiency of the technique is improved through avoiding unnecessary analyses during the course of optimization using the so-called upper bound strategy (UBS). The efficiency of the UBS integrated SOPT algorithm is evaluated through benchmark sizing optimization problems of truss structures and the numerical results are r...
Improving the big bang-big crunch algorithm for optimum design of steel frames
Hasançebi, Oğuzhan (null; 2012-01-01)
This paper presents an improved version of the big bang-big crunch (BB-BC) algorithm namely exponential BB-BC algorithm (EBB-BC) for optimum design of steel frames according to ASD-AISC provisions. It is shown that the standard version of the algorithm sometimes is unable to provide reasonable solutions for problems from discrete design optimization of steel frames. Therefore, by investigating the shortcomings of the BB-BC algorithm, it is aimed to enhance the algorithm for solving complicated steel frame o...
Inverse design of compressor cascades
Kaplan, B.; Eyi, Sinan (2001-12-01)
In this paper an inverse design method is presented which couples a Navier-Stokes flow solver and a numerical optimization algorithm. The design method generates a compressor cascade, producing a specified surface pressure distribution at a transonic speed. A least-square optimization technique is used to minimize pressure discrepancies between the target and designed cascades. In order to represent the nonlinear, rotational and viscous physics of transonic flows, Navier-Stokes equations are used to predict...
On the reduction of Gaussian inverse Wishart mixtures
Granström, Karl; Orguner, Umut (2012-09-12)
This paper presents an algorithm for reduction of Gaussian inverse Wishart mixtures. Sums of an arbitrary number of mixture components are approximated with single components by analytically minimizing the Kullback-Leibler divergence. The Kullback-Leibler difference is used as a criterion for deciding whether or not two components should be merged, and a simple reduction algorithm is given. The reduction algorithm is tested in simulation examples in both one and two dimensions. The results presented in the ...
