The Integrated DEsign Automation Laboratory (IDEAL) is one of the research laboratories in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Northwestern University .
The focus of the research work done at IDEAL under the direction of Dr. Wei Chen, is to develop rational design methods based on mathematical optimization techniques and statistical methods for use in complex design and manufacturing problems. The complexity is considered from various aspects, such as the large number of physical interrelated elements, the multilevel details of information, the multidisciplinary organization, and the computationally expensive design simulations. Detailed descriptions of research areas and current projects are provided.
