STRUCTURAL RELIABILITY OPTIMIZATION DESIGN OF REINFORCED SHELL MODEL BASED ON ADAPTIVE SURROGATE MODEL by LIU YuZhuo, CAO LiXiong, WU JianGuo, LI HaiBo

“…Reinforced shell structure is widely used in aerospace load-bearing structures because its high specific stiffness and specific strength.By considering the uncertainty and risk factors in the structural parameters，the Reliability-Based Design Optimization （RBDO） can avoid the overly conservative design of the structure and ensure its reliability and safety.An efficient RBDO method based on adaptive agent model was proposed.This method solves the problem of lightweight design of reinforced shell structure under buckling reliability constraints.The adaptive addition of sample points was implemented through the expected feasibility function criterion，and the discrete variables was continued by constructing piecewise functions.This increases optimization efficiency while ensuring the reliability of design results.Finally，the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by comparing the RBDO results with the deterministic optimization results.…”

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and loss-of-function of the protein underlie the X-linked epilepsy associated with the W356× mutation in synapsin I. by Maila Giannandrea, Fabrizia C Guarnieri, Niels H Gehring, Elena Monzani, Fabio Benfenati, Andreas E Kulozik, Flavia Valtorta

“…Given that the NMD efficiency is highly variable among individuals and cell types, we investigated also the effects of expression of the mutant protein and found that it is expressed at lower levels compared to wild-type synapsin I, forms perinuclear aggregates and is unable to reach presynaptic terminals in mature hippocampal neurons grown in culture. …”

Structural Damage Identification Using PID-Based Search Algorithm: A Control-Theory Inspired Application by Kuang Shi, Tingting Sun

“…We developed finite element programs for a 10-element simply supported beam, a 21-element truss, and a 7-story steel frame, assigning damage factors to each element as design variables. The Relative Frequency Change Rate (RFCR) and Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC) were calculated as objective functions for PSA iteration; comparative studies were then conducted against Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Genetic Algorithm (GA), and Simulated Annealing (SA) in terms of damage identification accuracy, computational efficiency, and noise robustness. …”
