%0 Journal Article %T Grouping and analysis of chair quality and their basic elements %A Skaki£¿ Du£¿an %A D£¿in£¿i£¿ Igor %J Glasnik £¿umarskog Fakulteta %D 2009 %I Faculty of Forestry, Belgrade %R 10.2298/gsf0999147s %X Both the scientific experience and the engineering practice indicate that the decision making processes in the course of solving complex designing problems require an analysis of a great number of different construction variants. These types of decision-making processes are time consuming and do not always result in the selection of an optimal solution. That is why the methods of numerical optimization are applied in a wide range of technical sciences to assist in the selection of the best solution. The first step in solving the problem by using the Finite element method is to determine the type of chair earmarked for modeling, and to determine the dimensions of the chair elements. %K quality %K chairs %K dimensions %K FEM %U http://www.doiserbia.nb.rs/img/doi/0353-4537/2009/0353-45370999147S.pdf
