Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a method, a system and a computer program for shape optimisation of a technical device adapted to be exposed to a fluid flowing around a contour of said device with respect to its fluid dynamic parameters. In order to provide an improved method for shape optimisation of a technical device with respect to its fluid dynamic parameters which is faster, a method is provided comprising discretizing the shape of the technical device into a plurality of points along the contour of the technical device or into a surface mesh, and inputting the plurality of points or the surface mesh into a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for computing a prediction of the at least one fluid dynamic parameter.

Abstract: An analysis method for analyzing pressure exerted by a body portion and/or of a human prosthesis includes: sampling data generated by the body portion and/or the prosthesis during a threshold calibration period at a sampling frequency in a condition of use thereby obtaining an array of sampled data of at least one sensing unit; providing at least one threshold value of the sampled data for the condition of use and storing the least one threshold value in a memory unit; comparing at the sampling frequency the sampled data with the at least one threshold value to obtain calibrated data, and storing the calibrated data in the memory unit and/or sending the calibrated data to a computing device if the calibrated data is greater than the at least one threshold value. A sensing device for sensing the pressure exerted by a body portion and/or the human prosthesis is also provided.
