On Sensitivity of Design Variables for Automation of Iterative Design Procedures

반복 설계 과정의 자동화를 위한 설계 변수 영향관계에 관한 연구

This paper proposes a sensitivity technique for analysis of the relationships between input variables (known values) and output variables(unknown values), These design variables are constrained by design equations. Thus, the output variables can be calculated by solving the equations with eliminating the input variables from the equations because the input variables become constants. If the output variables are not satisfied, the values of the input variables must be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the values and then the problem must be solved again. This is called as the iterative design procedure. The sensitivity technique, presented in this paper, gives the sensitivity on the changes of the values of the output variables to the input variables.
