Abstract

The purpose of this research was to develop a method of optimization that may be applied to the existing layout of the display cabinet at the grocery store in order to make it more functional. This method can be applied to either continuous or discrete design variable values, depending on the context. It is also possible to take into account a large number of different design variables. As finite element analysis (FEA) is a common analysis tool for engineers, an optimization procedure was developed in order to reach the objective by combining the orthogonal array experimentation technique with FEA. This was done in order to create the best possible solution. In order to produce a combined optimised design for the purpose of reducing the amount of material used and the associated costs, topology, topography, and size optimization were all performed. The aim is not necessarily to obtain the actual optimum value, if such a thing even exists; rather, the objective is to devise a more practical approach that will, with a reasonable amount of effort, produce a result that is close to the optimum.
