Applicability of Optimization Methods in the Design of Automotive Rubber Products
358-363Views:149Size, shape or topology optimization are widely used to fulfil the requirements in the design process of rubber products. In many cases, the shape of the product is very complex and comes into contact with other components during operation. It is commonly subjected to large deformation for which the rubber shows strongly nonlinear behaviour. For this complex problem analytical solution is not available, thus finite element method could be used in which the analysis running is a time consuming process. The object of my research is to compare the efficiency and computational cost of different optimization algorithms. This article focuses on the applicability of various optimization methods in the field of automotive rubber goods. Direct search optimization and surrogate model optimization methods will be introduced.

Using Mathematical Models in Secondary Grammar Schools
76-83Views:49On February 11, 2021, I gave a motivational lecture at the Tamás Esze High School in Mátészalka, and I completed a series of test tasks with the students. In this article, I looked for an answer to how students who are about to graduate approach to solving math problems. The main objective was to investigate whether they prefer to solve purely mathematical or application-oriented tasks, and in which one they achieve better results. In this paper, I analyze the results obtained.

Review of Drive Systems Applied in Modern Vehicles
728-732Views:175In this publication we review the drive systems of modern electric and hybrid vehicles. We also discuss the various types of electric motors, batteries, as well as fuel cell systems applied in them. Furthermore, as an important part of hybrid vehicles is the internal combustion engine, we review the literature about the methods used to.
