Abstract

www.esteco.com

ESTECO was created in 1999 to convert the tools created by its founders while working on FRONTIER, a European Union-sponsored project on Design Optimization, into a successful commercial product. It took ESTECO only two years to deliver on its promise, turning an academic-based research product into a world-class, multi-objective optimization software environment: modeFRONTIER

Since then, ESTECO's staff of experts in optimization techniques, numerical analysis and information technology has been expanded to acquire new skills, positioning the company as ideal partners for engineering organizations looking to take full advantage of their human and computational resources.

modeFRONTIER is a multiobjective optimization and design environment, written to allow easy coupling to almost any computer aided engineering (CAE) tool whether commercial or in-house. As the name suggests, modeFRONTIER provides an environment which allows product engineers and designers to integrate their various CAE tools, such as CAD, Finite Element Structural Analysis and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. Using a variety of state-of-the-art optimization techniques, ranging from gradient-based methods to genetic algorithms, the process or design of interest can be optimized by specifying objectives and defining variables which affect factors such as geometric shape and operating conditions. modeFRONTIER in effect becomes a wrapper around the CAE tool, performing the optimization by modifying the value assigned to the input variables, and monitoring the outputs.
