This book addresses optimization in robotics, in terms of both the configuration space and the metal structure of the robot arm itself; The book also offers detailed descriptions of and builds from scratch several types of optimization algorithms using MATLAB and simplified methods, especially for inverse problems and avoiding singularities.

This book presents the selected proceedings of the (third) fourth Vehicle and Automotive Engineering conference, reflecting the outcomes of theoretical and practical studies and outlining future development trends in a broad field of automotive research.

The book contains the latest scientific and engineering results obtained in the field of design of tubular structures. Static and fatigue analysis, theoretical and experimental research results are included. Calculations of tubular structures resistant to earthquakes, analysis of structural connections, application of structural optimization are also important parts. The book helps designers to make safe and economic design, using circular and rectangular hollow sections.

These are the proceedings of the International Conference on Design, Fabrication and Economy of Metal Structures held on 24-26 April 2013 in Miskolc, Hungary which contain 99 papers covering:Structural optimizationThin-walled structuresStabilityFatigue FramesFireFabricationWelding technologyApplicationsSteel-concrete compositeSpecial problemsThe authors are from 23 different countries, ensuring that the themes covered are of worldwide interest and importance. The International Institute of Welding (IIW), the International Society of Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization (ISSMO), the TÁMOP 4.2.1.B-10/2/KONV-2010-0001 project entitled “Increasing the quality of higher education through the development of research - development and innovation program at the University of Miskolc supported by the European Union, co-financed by the European Social Fund” and many other sponsors helped organizers to collect these valuable studies, the results of which will provoke discussion, and provide an important reference for civil and mechanical engineers, architects, researchers and structural designers and fabricators, as well as managers in a range of industries including building, transport, shipbuilding, aircraft, chemical and offshore engineering.

This book helps designers and manufacturers to select and develop the most suitable and competitive steel structures, which are safe, fit for production and economic. An optimum design system is used to find the best characteristics of structural models, which guarantee the fulfilment of design and fabrication requirements and minimize the cost function. Realistic numerical models are used as main components of industrial steel structures.Chapter 1 containts some experiences with the optimum design of steel structuresChapter 2 treats some newer mathematical optimization methods.Chapter 3 gives formulae for fabrication times and costs.Chapters 4 deals with beams and columns. Summarizes the Eurocode rules for design.Chapter 5 deals with the design of tubular trusses.Chapter 6 gives the design of frame structures and fire-resistant design rules for a frame.In Chapters 7 some minimum cost design problems of stiffened and cellular plates and shells are worked out for cases of different stiffenings and loads.Chapter 8 gives a cost comparison of cylindrical and conical shells.The book contains a large collection of literatures and a subject list and a name index.
