6th World congress on Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization.
Rio de Janeiro, May 30-June 3, 2005

Structural Optimization

Modern design techniques seek the best design to perform the desired =
tasks. Structural Optimization deals with the optimal design of =
structural elements and systems employed in several engineering fields. =
It was first applied in the aerospace industry, where reducing the =
structural weight is of utmost importance.=20

Nowadays, use of Structural Optimization is rapidly growing in =
automotive, aeronautical, mechanical, civil, nuclear, naval, and =
off-shore engineering. This is due to the increase of technological =
competition and the development of strong and efficient techniques for =
several practical applications.=20

These techniques integrate CAD tools for geometric modeling, general =
analysis methods, like the finite element method, and methods of design =
sensitivity analysis with mathematical programming or other numerical =
optimization techniques. The increasing speed and capacity of digital =
computers makes large-scale structural optimization possible and =
profitable in large number of applications.=20

MDO - Multidisciplinary Design Optimization

Engineering Systems are increasingly complex and represented by large =
and sophisticated numerical models. They involve several interacting =
disciplines or are made up of distinct interacting subsystems that must =
be considered simultaneously to obtain efficient designs.=20

Multidisciplinary Design Optimization is devoted to the design of =
complex systems involving interacting subsystems or disciplines. The =
main scientific challenges of MDO are concerned with the development of =
strong and efficient numerical techniques and with the computational =
organization required for the necessary coupling of disciplines software =
systems.=20

However, since it is an interdisciplinar activity, a fundamental need =
for MDO is the establishment of a strong communication of engineering, =
mathematicians and scientists acting in different disciplines or =
developing basic optimization techniques. This is one of the mains =
objectives of ISSMO and WCSSMO is an appropriate forum to bring together =
scientists and practitioners working in different areas of engineering =
optimization. =20
