Under various concentration conditions of reducing agents during the green synthesis of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), we obtain the various geometry (morphology and size) of AuNPs that play a crucial role in their catalytic properties. Through both theoretical and experimental approaches, we studied the relationship between the concentration of reducing agent (caffeic acid) and the geometry of AuNPs. As the concentration of caffeic acid increases, the sizes of AuNPs were decreased due to the adsor

ABSTRACT A topological shape optimization method for heat conduction problems is developed using a level set method. The level set function obtained from the “Hamilton-Jacobi type” equation is embedded into a fixed initial domain to implicitly represent thermal boundaries and obtain the finite-element response and adjoint sensitivity. The developed method minimizes the thermal compliance, satisfying the constraint of allowable volume by varying the implicit boundary. During optimization, the bou

A continuum-based sizing design sensitivity analysis (DSA) method is presented for the transient dynamic response of non-linear structural systems with elastic–plastic material and large deformation. The methodology is aimed for applications in non-linear dynamic problems, such as crashworthiness design. The first-order variations of the energy forms, load form, and kinematic and structural responses with respect to sizing design variables are derived. To obtain design sensitivities, the direct

A level set–based topological shape optimization method considering design-dependent convection boundaries is developed for steady-state heat conduction problems. We embed the level set function obtained from a Hamilton-Jacobi type of equation into a fixed initial domain to implicitly represent thermal boundaries. The effects of the implicit convection boundary obtained from topological shape variations are represented by numerical Dirac delta and Heaviside functions. The method minimizes the th

Abstract A level set-based topological shape-optimization method is developed to relieve the well-known convergence difficulty in nonlinear heat-conduction problems. While minimizing the objective function of instantaneous thermal compliance and satisfying the constraint of allowable volume, the solution of the Hamilton–Jacobi equation leads the initial implicit boundary to an optimal one according to the normal velocity determined from the descent direction of the Lagrangian.
