A designer must make a lot of decisions in a design process. The decisions may be classified into selection decisions and compromise decisions. As the results of two decisions depends on the designer's intention it is necessary that the designer's intention should be reflected in the design systematically and precisely. As the AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) technique analyzes and evaluates a obscure selection problem hierarchically, designer's intention can be reflected in the design systematically. Also as qualitative attributes can be rated at quantitative criterion the designer's intention can be reflected consistently. Usually an engineering problem is a coupled problem in which a designer must select one alternative from a set of alternatives and find optimal characteristics of the alternative concurrently. As considered attributes are functions of the compromise system variables and the attributes's units and orders are different each other, attribute ratings must be normalized. This paper introduces a neural network at this normalization. So the attribute ratings can reflect designer's intention and the knowledge from his(her) experience automatically.

In this study, a robust aerospace system design process for the aerospace system is developed by considering the uncertainties of user requirements, manufacturing errors, and operational environment variation. User requirements are analyzed and quantified by decision making models and system engineering methods to select alternative concepts which satisfies the various requirements. Robust design and optimization method is applied to derive the robust solution of the selected system. First, a variance of objective function is calculated, and a mean value and a variance of target value are determined by the deterministic design optimization results of the system. A robust optimum design formulation is then needed to derive the robust solution that minimizes the variance of the response and moves the mean values to the target value. It is applied to Very Light Jet (VLJ) aircraft to which much attention is paid recently in civil aerospace market.

Design VE system in order to promote the economical efficiency and the functional elevation of construction facilities apply to conatruction over 10 billion from december 2005. But it don't achieve purpose of VE original to maximization of value creation through VE because VE perform formal and result center. This study suggests some idea and analyse implementation of design VE through design VE case of turnkey and alternative project performed in domestic.

최근 계획되고 있는 초고층 건축물은 높이에 따른 기술경쟁력의 과시와 함께 비정형의 자유로운 건축적 형상을 통한 디자인 형태의 상징성을 강조하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 이러한 비정형 건축물의 구조시스템은 기술적, 경제적 문제로 인해 한정된 수의 가능성 있는 대안만이 고려되어 왔으나, 첨단 디지털 기술의 발전에 따라 비정형 건축물의 구조시스템에 대해 이전에는 적용이 불가능하였던 다수의 구조시스템 대안을 생성하고 동일한 컨셉을 가진 다양한 구조시스템 대안의 비교평가를 통해 검토안의 수를 최소화하는 것이 가능해졌다. 본 연구에서는 비정형 건축물 구조시스템 설계를 위한 디지털 요소기술에 대해 현재까지의 연구현황을 분석하고 앞으로의 연구방향과 과제를 제시하고자 한다.

The outer surfaces of free form buildings contain panels with two-directional curvatures. To construct these panels, complex geometric surfaces should be divided into forms and sizes that can be manufactured and constructed efficiently. Because the bigger the curvatures of these panel, the more expensive the construction costs, these complex curvatures should go through optimal process of reinterpretation to minimize the curved surfaces with complex two-directional curvatures, which is called panel optimization. Small construction and design companies have trouble in calculating even rough estimate and cannot adjust expected construction cost of the panels based on comparison of design alternatives in conjunction with panel optimization process due to lack of knowledge and experience. This study conducts the research that can support designers' cost decision-making in the design stage of the free form buildings with respect to the panel optimization process. A 3D commercial application specialized to modeling free form shapes is used for the purpose.

Numerical simulations were performed to analyse the flow pattern of the approach channel and to design the spillway guidewall for stable flow conditions. RMA-2, two dimensional finite element model which can easily represent complicated geometry was used, and model parameters were estimated from the observation data of hydraulic model test. Numerical experiments were made separately for the approach region and for the upstream region, and upstream boundary position of the hydraulic model beyond which the boundary effects are negligible was determined from the numerical results. For the stable flow condition in approach channel, alternative designs for guidewall were developed, and flow analysis for alternative designs was done through the numerical simulation. From the analysis of alternative design, we can see that the flow pattern in the approach channel is stable and the lateral stage difference disappears mostly before the spillway crest.

In Korea construction project case, architectural construction project is curtailed production because information network process within multidisciplinary isn't smooth. Particularly, the construction is not insufficient about performance, cost and material, construction process, etc. in result various question arises because of design error in construction step. And various mistake is made because communication path within multidisciplinary isn't smooth in architectural design and design change process. Therefore The final object of this study is to propose the establishment method of decision support model for the cooperative design in order to provides improved design coordination and optimize the building system.

In this paper, a method is proposed to evaluate a number of alternatives for light-weight rolling stock recommended from experts in rolling stock and to decide an optimal alternative. At first, many customer needs from various fields in railroad are drawn and weights of customer needs are decided by AHP. Secondly, technical requirements that should be real specifications for light-weight rolling stock are set and weights of technical requirements are decided by QFD. Finally, we evaluate some proposed alternatives and conclude an optimal alternative of light-weight rolling stock with TOPSIS.

Spatial decision support systems(SDffi), a new class of decision support system(DSS), result from the melding together of GIS and DSS, Planning support systems(PS5) add more advanced spatial analysis functions than GIS and intertemporal functions to the functions of SDSS. This paper reports the development of a planning support system providing a framework that facilitates urban planners and civil engineers in conducting coherent deliberations about the generation of satisficing sewers. 1he planning support system for the generation of satisficing sewers(PS5/GSS) was designed from the understanding that land use and development drive the demand for storm and sanitary sewers. Through four stages of supply, demand, alternative generation, and evaluation, PSS/GSS integrates basic planning, preliminary design, and engineering design of sewer. GIS and graphic user interface are excellent toolboxes for designing sewer networks, estimating the quantity of wastewater, and showing generated alternative sewers. A sewer model using simulation tedmique can generate an initial sewer. Users can define alternative sewers by the direct manipulation of sewer networks or by the manipulation of parameters in the sewer model. The sewer model evaluates the performance of the user defined alternatives.
