To investigate a possible improvement to modern systems, an artificial neural network-based controller, trained by potential flow simulations, was used to prescribe the optimum future actuation of a ride control system. By prescribing the optimum future actuation in anticipation...

... of fixturing. Numerical simulations using finite element analysis (FEA) have long been used to analyze welding-induced structural distortion. For large assemblies, transient thermal elastic-plastic analysis (TEPA) can take days or weeks to run, and optimization of welding sequence is not feasible. Simplified...
