The paper deals with the comparative study of design optimization based on various approximation techniques in strength design of riser support structure installed on floating production storage and offloading unit(FPSO) using offshore operation loading conditions. The design optimization problem is formulated such that structural member sizing variables are determined by minimizing the weight of riser support structure subject to the constraints of structural strength in terms of loading conditions. The approximation techniques used in the comparative study are response surface method based sequential approximate optimization(RBSAO), Kriging based sequential approximate optimization(KBSAO), and the enhanced moving least squares method(MLSM) based approximate optimization such as CF(constraint feasible)-MLSM and Post-MLSM. Commercial process integration and design optimization(PIDO) tools are employed for the applications of RBSAO and KBSAO. The enhanced MLSM based approximate optimization techniques are newly developed to ensure the constraint feasibility. In the context of numerical performances such as design solution and computational cost, the solution results from approximate techniques based design optimization are compared to actual non-approximate design optimization.

In this paper, a method to approximate a multi-layer Green's function is proposed based on a FDTD scheme and a rational function approximation. For a given horizontal propagation wavenumber, time domain response is calculated and then Fourier transformed to the spectral domain Green's function. Using the rational function approximation, the pole and residue of the Green's function can be estimated, which are crucial for a calculation of a path loss. The proposed method can provide a wideband Green's function, while the conventional normal mode method can be applied to a single frequency problem. To validate the proposed method, We consider two problems, one of which has a analytical solution. The other is about multi-layer case, for which the proposed method is compared with the known normal mode solution, Kraken.

신뢰성 분석은 불확실성으로 인한 제품의 성능 변동을 안전확률이나 파괴확률로 정량화 하여 설계에 이용하기 위해 연구되어 왔다. 불확실성은, 데이터의 양에 따라-물질의 본질적인 특성으로서의 많은 데이터가 주어진 경우의 물리적 불확실성과 부족한 데이터에서의 인식론적 불확실성으로 구분되고, 불확실성을 갖는 대상에 따라-입력변수 및 근사모델 불확실성으로 구분된다. 물리적 불확실성에 대한 연구는 많이 진행되어 왔지만, 실제 산업현장에는 부족한 데이터로 인한 인식론적 불확실성이 지배적이며 이에 대한 연구는 최근에서야 진행되고 있다. 불확실성을 고려하는 신뢰성 기반 설계에는 효율성을 위해 실제모델을 대체하는 근사모델이 이용되는데, 근사모델법 자체에 대한 연구는 많이 진행되어 왔으나, 근사모델 이기 때문에 존재하는 불확실성을 고려한 연구는 최근에서야 연구되기 시작하였다. 본 연구에서는 베이지안 접근법에 기반하여 입력변수 및 근사모델 불확실성을 통합 고려하는 새로운 신뢰성 분석 기법을 제시하고 수치예제를 통해 타당성을 증명한 후, 이를 공학문제에 적용한다.

This paper presents dynamic algorithm of the MLS(moving least squares) difference method using first order differential Approximation. The governing equations are only discretized by the first order MLS derivative approximation. The system equation consists of an assembly of the approximate function, so the shape of system equation is similar to FEM(finite element method). The CDM(central difference method) is used for time integration of dynamic equilibrium equation. The natural frequency analyses of the MLS difference method and FEM are performed, and two analysis results are compared. Also, the accuracy of the proposed numerical method is verified by displaying the dynamic analysis results together with the results by the existing second order differential approximation. In the process of assembling the first order MLS derivative approximation, the oscillation error was suppressed and the stress distribution was interpreted as relatively uniform.

Heat trnasfer for absorbing and emitting media in laminar layer along the cylinders has been analyzed. Governing equation are transformed to local nonsimilarity equations by the dimensional analysis. The effects of the Stark number, Prandtl number, Optical radius and wall emissivity are mainly investigated. For the formal solution a numerical integration is performed and the results are compared with those obtained by P-1 and P-3 approximation. The results show that boundary layers consist of conduction-convection-radiation layer near the wall and convection-radiation layer far from the wall. As the Stark number of wall emissivity increases the local radiative heat flux is increased. The Pradtl number or curvature variations do not affect the radiative heat flux from the wall, but The Prandtl number or wall emissivity variations affect the conduction heat flux. Consequently the total heat flux from the wall are affected by the Prandtl number or wall emissivity variation.

According to ow previous study, we confirmed That the Petrov-Galerkin natural element method(PG-NEM) completely resolves the numerical integration inaccuracy in the conventional Bubnov-Galerkin natural element method(BG-NEM). This paper is an extension of PG-NEM to two-dimensional geometrically nonlinear problem. For the analysis, a linearized total Lagrangian formulation is approximated with the PS-NEM. At every load step, the grid points ate updated and the shape functions are reproduced from the relocated nodal distribution. This process enables the PG-NEM to provide more accurate and robust approximations. The representative numerical experiments performed by the test Fortran program, and the numerical results confirmed that the PG-NEM effectively and accurately approximates The large deformation problem.

강상판교는 부재수가 많고 구조적 거동이 복잡하여 재래적인 단일수준 (CSL) 알고리즘을 이용하여 최적화하는 것이 매우 어렵기 때문에 본 연구에서는 강상판교를 효율적으로 최적화하기 위해 다단계 최적설계 (MLDS) 알고리즘이 제안되었다. 강상판교를 주형과 강상판으로 나누기 위해 등위법이 사용되었고, 시스템 최적화를 위하여 설계 변수를 줄이는 분해법이 사용되었다. 효율적인 최적설계를 위해 다단계 최적설계 알고리즘은 제약조건 소거기법(Constraint Deletion)과 응력 재해석 같은 근사화 기법을 도입하였다. 변위해석을 위한 제약조건 소거기법은 교량의 최적화에 효율적인 것으로 검증되었고, 제안된 응력 재해석 기법 또한 설계민감도 해석을 필요로 하지 않으므로 매우 효율적이다. MLDS 알고리즘의 적용성과 강건성은 다양한 수치예제를 사용하여 기존의 단일수준 알고리즘과 비교하였다.

본 연구에서는 이동최소제곱 차분법을 2차원 동적고체문제를 해석하기 위하여 확장시켰으며 Newmark ${\beta}$ 방법을 통해 explicit와 implicit 시간적분법을 모두 적용하여 그 차이를 비교하였다. 이동최소제곱 차분법은 Taylor 다항식을 이용하여 미분계산을 근사화 함으로써 내부 및 경계에서도 강형식을 그대로 이용할 수 있다. 그래서 계산이 빠르고 수치적분이 필요하지 않아 무요소법의 장점을 잘 살릴 수 있고 해석차수를 손쉽게 조정할 수 있어 cubic 등의 고차 근사계산이 간편하다. 두 가지 수치예제를 통하여 동적해석에 대한 이동최소제곱 차분법의 적용성과 안정성을 검증하였다.

This paper presents a nonlinear Moving Least Squares(MLS) difference method for material nonlinearity problem. The MLS difference method, which employs strong formulation involving the fast derivative approximation, discretizes governing partial differential equation based on a node model. However, the conventional MLS difference method cannot explicitly handle constitutive equation since it solves solid mechanics problems by using the Navier's equation that unifies unknowns into one variable, displacement. In this study, a double derivative approximation is devised to treat the constitutive equation of inelastic material in the framework of strong formulation; in fact, it manipulates the first order derivative approximation two times. The equilibrium equation described by the divergence of stress tensor is directly discretized and is linearized by the Newton method; as a result, an iterative procedure is developed to find convergent solution. Stresses and internal variables are calculated and updated by the return mapping algorithm. Effectiveness and stability of the iterative procedure is improved by using algorithmic tangent modulus. The consistency of the double derivative approximation was shown by the reproducing property test. Also, accuracy and stability of the procedure were verified by analyzing inelastic beam under incremental tensile loading.
