1. EXPERIMENT NAME:
“To investigate the stability of materials by using optimization method”
INTRODUCTION:
What is optimization used for?
Optimization, also known as mathematical programming, collection of mathematical principles
and methods used for solving quantitative problems in many disciplines, including physics,
biology, engineering, economics, and business.
Material design and discovery is a fundamental issue in material science and engineering
structure.
The design of composite material structure, that achieves certain quality, is often the problem
of selecting the optical solution from a search space.
Optimization theory and method have been applied in many fields to handle various practical
problems.in light of advances in computing system, optimization techniques and popular in
different engineering applications
The goal of optimization
The goal of optimization is to find an optimation or near optimal solution with low
computational effort the effort of an optimization method can be measured as the time
(computational time) and space (computer memory) that is consumed by the method.
For many optimization methods and especially for trade-off between solution quality and
effect, as with increasing effort solution quality increases.
Aim and Objective:
The aim and objective of this experiment is to investigate the stability of material by using
optimization method.
Theory:

3. Optimization:
process, or methodology of making something (such as a design, system, or decision) as fully
perfect, functional, or effective as possible specifically : the mathematical procedures (such as
finding the maximum of a function) involved in this.
e.g.,
Business optimization is the process of identifying and implementing new methods that make
the business more efficient and cost effective. Examples of business optimization include: ...
Reducing costs while improving performance. Automation of repetitive tasks. Machine-
learning techniques that improve equipment operation.
Why optimization is important in business?
The optimization plays very important roles especially in business because it helps to reduce
costs that can lead to higher profits and to success in the competitive fight.
Optimization in Math:
Mathematical optimization (alternatively spelled optimisation) or mathematical
programming is the selection of a best element (with regard to some criterion) from some set
of available alternatives. Optimization problems of sorts arise in all quantitative disciplines
from computer science and engineering to operations research and economics, and the
development of solution methods has been of interest in mathematics for centuries. The
mathematical model Material optimization deals with optimal design of elastic structures,
where the design variables are material properties. The material can even vanish in certain
areas, thus the so-called topology optimization
Material Optimization:
Material optimization (FMO) is a branch of structural optimization that gains interest in the
recent years. The underlying FMO model was introduced in [4] and has been studied in several
further articles as, for example, [2, 30]. The design variable in FMO is the full elastic stiffness
tensor that can vary from point to point. The method is supported by powerful optimization
and numerical techniques which allow for scenarios with complex bodies, fine finite-element
meshes and several load cases. FMO has been successfully used for conceptual design of
aircraft components; the most prominent example is the design of ribs in the leading edge of
Airbus A380 [13]. As mentioned, the optimal elastic stiffness tensor can vary from point to

5. point; it should be physically available but is otherwise not restricted. Given this freedom, we
have to face the question of interpretation of the optimal result.
How does Monte Carlo Tree Search work?
What is Monte Carlo Tree Search? MCTS is an algorithm that figures out the best move out of
a set of moves by Selecting → Expanding → Simulating → Updating the nodes
in tree to find the final solution. This method is repeated until it reaches the solution and learns
the policy of the game
Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is a search technique in the field of
Artificial Intelligence (AI). It is a probabilistic and heuristic driven search algorithm that
combines the classic tree search implementations alongside machine learning principles
of reinforcement learning.
Optimization in physics:
In such problems, it is often necessary to optimize some physical quantity such as distance,
velocity, time, mass, acceleration, force, electric current, illuminance, etc. ... The constraint
equations can follow from physical laws and formulas.
What is an optimization function?
In the simplest case, an optimization problem consists of maximizing or minimizing a
real function by systematically choosing input values from within an allowed set and
computing the value of the function.
Optimization in chemistry:
In chemical
In chemical processing units, optimization is the method that seeks to solve the problem of
minimizing or maximizing an objective function that relates the variable to optimize with the
design and operating variables. ... Most problems in chemical engineering processes have
many solutions, in some cases becoming endless.
Tips for process optimization in chemical
1. Adherence to quality and safety.
2. Increased automation.
3. Introducing continuous process steps.

7. 4. Using catalysts to yield better results.
5. Materials maintenance.
6. Balancing the yield and production cost.
7. Waste water management.
Optimizing distillation columns:
A lot of examples exist in industry. Manufacturing plants use optimization to figure out how
to best run their machinery, buy raw materials, ship finished goods, etc. Airlines and other
passenger transportation services use optimization to determine their schedules.
Optimization In biology
Optimization methods can be used to improve the distribution and supply of health care
providers to maximize service coverage, minimize travel needs of patients, limit the number of
facilities, and maximize health or access equality.
First of all, being “optimized” for surgery means you are in proper physical shape before your
operation and you are receiving the right care. Your pre-operative evaluation will allow your
surgeon and anaesthesiologist to be prepared and individualize your surgical care to your
specific medical needs.
CONCLUSION:
Advantages of optimization technique.
1. YOU WORK MORE EFFICIENTLY
Process optimization leads to working more efficiently. You eliminate unnecessary steps and
automate steps in the process to save time, reduce errors and avoid duplicate work. Especially
with frequent processes, the ones that take place every day, the increased efficiency through
process optimization can be of great benefit. Moreover, it is also nice for employees to be able
to work more efficiently, supported by the right software tools.
2. YOU CAN HELP YOUR CUSTOMERS BETTER
To help the customer in the best possible way, that is what it’s all about. By optimizing
processes, you become more effective as an organization. You can act faster and you become
more flexible regarding customer requirements. When you use the right software solutions you
have more complete and more accurate information, enabling you to help the customer better.

9. Naturally, a higher level of customer service leads to more satisfied customers and is in the
interest of the entire organization.
3. THERE IS MORE CLARITY
Much inefficiency in processes is caused by a lack of clarity. Who is responsible for what?
What information should be registered? What work was carried out by my colleague in the
other department? By looking at this critically you can quickly make progress. Making clear
agreements and communicating clearly with each other prevents confusion and problems. And
if it does go wrong, you know where in the process it happened and who was responsible.
4. YOU BETTER COMPLY WITH LAWS AND REGULATIONS
5. IT BECOMES EASIER TO IMPROVE AND GROW
Processes that are strictly organized and carefully documented form the foundation for
continuous improvement. In a well-organized work environment, innovation, new ideas and
continuous improvement are stimulated. It also makes it easier to collaborate with other
departments and share best practices with each other.
Documenting, analyzing and optimizing business processes takes time. But it certainly pays to
carry out this thoroughly and to regularly evaluate whether the processes are still optimal. A
business consultant can help you with his or her experience and knowledge. Automation plays
an important role in process optimization; with the right software solutions you can make many
processes simple, fast and error-free.
