Golden Zephyr by Nagarjuna

G.I.N. Rozvany ASI Director, Professor of Structural Design, FB 10, Essen University, Essen, Germany Structural optimization deals with the optimal design of all systems that consist, at least partially, of solids and are subject to stresses and deformations. This inte- grated discipline plays an increasingly important role in all branches of technology, including aerospace, structural, mechanical, civil and chemical engineering as well as energy generation and building technology. In fact, the design of most man- made objects, ranging from space-ships and long-span bridges to tennis rackets and artificial organs, can be improved considerably if human intuition is enhanced by means of computer-aided, systematic decisions. In analysing highly complex structural systems in practice, discretization is un- avoidable because closed-form analytical solutions are only available for relatively simple, idealized problems. To keep discretization errors to a minimum, it is de- sirable to use a relatively large number of elements. Modern computer technology enables us to analyse systems with many thousand degrees of freedom. In the optimization of structural systems, however, most currently available methods are restricted to at most a few hundred variables or a few hundred active constraints.

Lama Mipham (1846-1912), a famous Nyingma lama, was a key figure in the ecumenical (Rime) movement, which sparked a resurgence of study and practice throughout Tibet. His commentaries on Indian root texts and other works have remained a mainstay of Tibetan lineage studies to this day. Tarthang Tulku Rinpoche is a Tibetan lama who was born in Golok, Tibet. In 1958, he fled Tibet for exile in India. Rinpoche began reproducing endangered Tibetan manuscripts as a refugee in India, where he taught at Varanasi's Sanskrit University.

He migrated to the United States in 1968 and has been living and working there ever since. Rinpoche has launched over 20 organizations dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Buddhist learning in Asia and the West. Tarthang Tulku has written over two dozen works, including Gesture of Balance; Time, Place, and Knowledge- A New Vision of Reality; Kum Nye Tibetan Yoga; Skillful Ways, Revelations of Mind, and Caring.
