Structural Dynamics Modification (SDM) is a very effective technique to improve structure's dynamic characteristics by adding or removing auxiliary structures. changing material properties and shape of structure. Among those of SDM technique, the method to change shape of structure has been mostly relied on engineer's experience and trial-and-error process which are very time consuming. In order to develop a systematic method to change structure shape, surface grooving technique is studied and successfully applied to HDD cover model. To check the effectiveness of this surface grooving technique, the grooved HDD cover design was manufactured using rapid prototyping and experimentally tested to prove the effectiveness of the grooving method as one of SDM techniques. And the modal strain energy and eigenvalue sensitivity method for choosing the initial starting point are compared.

Among those of SDM technique, the method to change shape of structure has been mostly relied on engineer's experience and trial-and-error process which are very time consuming. In order to develop a systematic method to change structure shape, surface grooving technique is studied. In this work, the shape of base structure was modified to improve its dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies via surface grooving technique. Grooving shape was formed by mergingthe neighboring small embossing elements after analyzing frequency increment sensitivities of all the neighboring emboss elements. For this process, Criterion Factor was introduced and the initial grooving was started from the element having highest strain energy and the grooving is expanded into neighboring element. The range of targeting grooving area to check its frequency variations restricted to their neighboring area to reduce the computation effort. This surface grooving technique was successfully applied to a hard disk drives (HDD) cover model to raise its natural frequency by giving some groove on its surface.

This paper discusses the multi-level optimization method in dynamic optimization problems through stiffened plate of ship structures. In structural optimization the computational cost increases rapidly as the number of design variables increases. And we need a great amount of cal-culation and time on problems of modified dynamic characteristics of large and complicated struc-tures. In this paper the multi-level optimization is proposed which decreases computational time and cost. the dynamic optimum designs of stiffened plate that control the natural frequency and minimize weight subjected to constraints condition are derived. The way to apply the multi-level optimization methods in this study follow: In the first step the dynamic characteristics is controlled for the two-dimensional model of stiffened plate by sensitivity analysis and quasi-least squares methods. In the second step the cross-section of the stiffener is decided so that the weight is minimized under needed constraints by the steepest descent or ascent method. In the third the three-dimensional model is made based on the results of the first step and the second step confirmation and finer tuning of the objective function are carried out. It is shown that the results are effective in the optimum modification for dynamic characteristics of the stiffened plate.

In order to develop a systematic method to change structure shape, surface grooving technique is studied and successfully applied to HDD cover model. At first, to check the effect of mesh size, surface grooving technique was tested to the fine HDD cover FEmodel. And fur the more efficient method, the algorithm is modified. Removing the low-valued modal strain energy element among the target domain, computational effort can be greatly reduced and the result of simulation is similar with the other simulation result.

Component Mode Synthesis (CMS) is a dynamic substructuring technique to get an approximate eigensolutions of large degree-of-freedom structures divisible into several components. But, In practice. most of large structures are modeled by different teams of engineers. and their respective finite element models often require different mesh resolutions. As a result, the finite element substructure models can be non-conforming and/or incompatible. In this work, A hybrid version of component mode synthesis using a localized lagrange multiplier to treat the non-conforming mesh problem was derived. Evolution Strategies (ESs) is a stochastic numerical optimization technique and has shown a robust performance for solving deterministic problems. An ESs conducts its search by processing a population of solutions for an optimization problem based on principles from natural evolution. An optimization example for raising the first natural frequency of a plate structure using beam stiffeners was presented using hybrid component mode synthesis and robust evolution strategies (RES) optimization technique. In the example. the design variables are the positions and lengths of beam stiffeners.

진동시험 동안 구조물은 진동시험기로부터 높은 진동에너지를 받게 되는데 공급되는 에너지를 시험물에 전달하기 위해서는 시험물에 따라 다양한 종류의 진동시험치구가 필요하게 된다. 이중에서 T-형상 진동시험치구는 진동시험축에 대해 3방향으로 시험물을 설치할 수 있고, 형상이 간단하며, 또한 값이 저렴하므로 많은 설계자들은 T-형상 치구를 설계하여 사용한다. 그러나 이 치구는 수직판이 어떤 주파수에서 평판처럼 공진현상을 일으키기 때문에 동역학적으로 설계하기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 진동시험치구의 기능을 향상시키기 위해 모우드 시험(Model Testing)기법을 사용하는 방법과 시험결과를 근거로 설계변경을 위해 수직보강판, 수평보강판, 그리고 천연 고무패드를 사용하여 이것들이 치구의 동특성에 미치는 영향을 기술하며 그 결과를 치구설계 때 응용 가능하도록 한다.
