Optimization Techniques in Numerical Simulation of Casting Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents an overview and example using optimization techniques in casting numerical simulation. Most of the design work can fulfill with the software without human intervention. It really frees the engineer from the amount of trial-and-error that is necessary in traditional modeling.
