About this award
This is a $96,792 firm-fixed-price purchase order awarded by NASA's Ames Research Center to Optimal LLC, a small business based in Starkville, MS, under the SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) program. The contract is for the development of a "Discrete Geometry Toolkit for Shape Optimization" to address challenges in simulation-based design optimization. The project aims to create a flexible geometry toolkit that will provide engineers with intuitive "plug-and-play" options for shape parameterization, deformation, and geometric constraint imposition, which can be easily integrated into existing or future analysis and design environments. The contract has a July 2010 completion date.
Description
Simulation-based design optimization has been steadily maturing over the past two decades, but not without its own unique and persistent challenges. The proposed project will develop a novel solution to one of the long-standing bottlenecks in simulation-based design optimization. Particularly, we will develop a flexible geometry toolkit for shape parameterization and modification as required for design optimization. With our discrete geometry toolkit, shape modifications will be achieved via an elegant and intuitive "plug-and-play" approach, providing engineers with a wide variety of options for shape parameterization, shape deformation, and geometric constraint imposition. Our geometry toolkit will be composed of independent modules and will be easily integrated into existing or future analysis and design environments. Our approach will offer a modular and intuitive means to interactively synthesize appropriate modifications
