An axisymmetric system of mould, glass piece, plunger and plunger cavity is considered. The state problem is given as a stationary head conduction process. The system includes the glass piece representing the heat source and is cooled inside the plunger cavity by flowing water and outside by the environment of the mould. The design variable is taken to be the shape of the inner surface of the plunger cavity. The cost functional is the second power of the norm in the weighted space of difference...
An elastic simply supported axisymmetric plate of given volume, fixed on an elastic foundation, is considered. The design variable is taken to be the thickness of the plate. The thickness and its partial derivatives of the first order are bounded. The load consists of a concentrated force acting in the centre of the plate, forces concentrated on the circle, an axisymmetric load and the weight of the plate. The cost functional is the norm in the weighted Sobolev space of the deflection curve of radius....
In this contribution, we present the problem of shape optimization of the plunger cooling which comes from the forming process in the glass industry. We look for a shape of the inner surface of the insulation barrier located in the plunger cavity so as to achieve a constant predetermined temperature on the outward surface of the plunger. A rotationally symmetric system, composed of the mould, the glass piece, the plunger, the insulation barrier and the plunger cavity, is considered. The state problem...
This contribution presents the shape optimization problem of the plunger cooling cavity for the time dependent model of pressing the glass products. The system of the mould, the glass piece, the plunger and the plunger cavity is considered in four consecutive time intervals during which the plunger moves between 6 glass moulds. The state problem is represented by the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations in the cavity and the doubly periodic energy equation in the whole system, under the assumption...
In the contribution we present a problem of shape optimization of the cooling cavity of a plunger that is used in the forming process in the glass in dustry. A rotationally symmetric system of the mould, the glass piece, the plunger and the plunger cavity is considered. The state problem is given as a stationary heat conduction process. The system includes a heat source representing the glass piece that is cooled from inside by water flowing through the plunger cavity and from outside by the environment
