    Finite Strain Homogenization Using a Reduced Basis and Efficient Sampling

    Full text link
    The computational homogenization of hyperelastic solids in the geometrically nonlinear context has yet to be treated with sufficient efficiency in order to allow for real-world applications in true multiscale settings. This problem is addressed by a problem-specific surrogate model founded on a reduced basis approximation of the deformation gradient on the microscale. The setup phase is based upon a snapshot POD on deformation gradient fluctuations, in contrast to the widespread displacement-based approach. In order to reduce the computational offline costs, the space of relevant macroscopic stretch tensors is sampled efficiently by employing the Hencky strain. Numerical results show speed-up factors in the order of 5-100 and significantly improved robustness while retaining good accuracy. An open-source demonstrator tool with 50 lines of code emphasizes the simplicity and efficiency of the method.Comment: 28 page

    Diese Arbeit stellt eine Machbarkeitsstudie des Deutschen Zentrums für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. (DLR e.V.) dar, welche die Möglichkeit aufzeigen soll, klassische Lösungsansätze durch alternative Machine Learning (ML)-Algorithmen zu ersetzten und damit komplexe und zeitaufwendige Simulationen von Triebwerksprozessen zu beschleunigen. Aus diesem Grund wird die Verlässlichkeit von Vorhersage über die Eigenfrequenzen von Verdichterschaufeln unter Verwendung eines ML-Modells untersucht und dient als alternative Berechnungsmöglichkeit, der dynamischen Festigkeits- und Verformungsberechnung einer klassischen numerischen Simulation mittels der Finite Elemente Methode (FEM). Für die Vorhersagen der ersten zehn signifikanten Eigenfrequenzen der Verdichterschaufelblätter einer Variation des Trent 1000 Triebwerks wird ein Deep Neural Network (DNN) bestehend aus einem dreidimensionalen Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) und einem vollständig verknüpften Artificial Neural Network (ANN) verwendet. Die inhomogenen Verteilungen der Eigenfrequenzen und der geometrischen Merkmale der Verdichterschaufelblätter stellen eine große Herausforderung für die Genauigkeit der Vorhersagen des DNN dar. Innerhalb eines umfangreichen Preprocessings des Datensatzes werden die einzelnen Verteilungen durch Normalisierungen optimiert und die darin enthaltenen Ausreißer reduziert. Mittels einer Hyperparameter Optimierung mit dem Open-Source Framework Optuna und dem darin enthaltenen Bayes’schen Optimierungsalgorithmus, wird die beste Modell-Konfiguration des DNN ermittelt. Trotz Fine-Tuning und der optimalen Modell-Konfiguration sowie einer umfangreichen Aufbereitung des Datensatzes können jedoch nur für 82.14% der Testdaten verlässliche Vorhersagen erzeugt werden. 50% der vorhergesagten Eigenfrequenzen besitzen einen geringeren Fehler als 5.53% und zeigen das große Potenzial des DNN-Modells. Eine umfangreiche Analyse der Ausreißer mit großen relativen Fehlern in den Vorhersagen ergibt, dass Verdichterschaufelblätter mit einem Volumen größer als 4000mm3 und Eigenfrequenzen größer 40000 Hz im zugrunde liegenden Datensatz extrem unterrepräsentiert sind. Über die Schnittmengen der Volumen- und Eigenfrequenzverteilungen der besten Vorhersagen und der Ausreißer werden die unterrepräsentierten geometrische Merkmale als weiter Ursache identifiziert. Abschließend wird die Fähigkeit des DNN dreidimensionale Merkmale in den Verdichterschaufelblättern zu erkennen durch die Analyse der Feature-Maps und Transfer-Learning in ein Logistic-Regression-Modell nachgewiesen

    Postponement in supply chain management: service dominant lens

    No full text
    Purpose – This paper focuses on postponement strategy in supply chain management within the context of service-dominant logic, and specifically addresses liaisons between them. Approach – Ample literature is reviewed in order to recognize and indicate possible over lapping. Firstly, a literature review of each of the concepts is provided. Then, we explain their compatibility. Subsequently, examples of real companies are used to provide illustrative interpretation in practice. Findings – Postponement strategies are in line with service-dominant logic. Moreover, it is observed that postponement is double-edged. It can be both a tool that enables customers to participate in value co-creation as well as a process that is dependent on a properly working network ecosystem that operates according to the principles of service-dominant logic. Originality – This paper identifies connections between service-dominant logic and postponement in supply chains. Furthermore, it provides academics with a comprehensive explanation of the mutual inclusivity of those two concepts

    No full text
    This bachelor thesis focuses on commercial and economic relations between Portugal and Brazil. The thesis is divided into three chapters. Firstly, it evaluates their position in the world economy as well as in the international trade. Second chapter is devoted to the history of cooperation between EC/EU and Latin America, with the emphasis on the ongoing FTA negotiations EU-Mercosur. Lastly, this thesis analyses the trade between Portugal and Brazil (since its independence), especially in the period between 2007 and 2011
