The intent of the study was to produce a new design for a cast iron (GJS400) lead roller support used in a paper machine which reduces its weight, while maintaining or reducing its fatigue life cycle resulting from regular production use. Since these two objectives could be construed as conflicting, a multi-disciplinary design simulation that encompassed the main life cycle stages of the component, from its design to its production and in-service use, was set up in order to produce a new design where both of these objectives were optimized. 
The Athens 2004 Olympic Stadium roof is an impressive cable-stayed steel roof structure designed by the renowned architect Santiago Calatrava and constructed by Cimolai Spa of Italy. The erection procedure resulted in a complex construction sequence where two separate halves were built and then transported to their final position above the Olympic Stadium. 
The advent of the Naked Motorcycle has changed the way we look at motorcycle parts. In addition to being of excellent quality, reliable, efficient and cost-effective, they now also need to be aesthetically pleasing because they are mostly visible to the naked eye.

Multi-Objective Robust Design Optimization.
In many engineering design problems the design parameters may only be known to some extent or, in some cases, they may be described by a probability distribution. The designer has to take into account the robustness of his solution, which is defined as the characteristic of the system response to be insensitive to the variation of the input parameters working effectively in a range of circumstances and not being adversely affected by small changes therein. The deterministic model is replaced by an iterative stochastic model in an uncertainty space. The uncertainty space is usually represented in terms of moments like mean and standard deviation of the output variables.
