본 연구에서는 댐 유역의 설계홍수량을 산정할 시 발생할 수 있는 대표 매개변수의 불확실성에 대하여 분석하였다. 설계홍수량 산정 방법으로는 국내에서 가장 일반적으로 활용되고 있는 강우-유출모형 중 Clark 단위도를 활용하여 확률강우량을 동일 빈도의 홍수량으로 변환하는 방식을 적용하였다. 대상 유역으로는 수문학적 안전성평가가 수행된 국내 댐 유역 중 비교적 실측 호우사상 자료 수가 많은 3개 유역을 선정하였다. 또한 단위도 매개변수 결정 시 자료의 부족으로 최적화 매개변수에 대한 신뢰도 문제가 발생할 수 있으므로 가용 자료수가 증가함에 따른 불확실성의 영향을 분석하기 위해 대상 유역 간의 시간응답 특성을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 상사성이 있는 것으로 판단되는 유역의 호우사상 매개변수를 통합하여 무차원화된 저류상수 $K_x$를 구하였다. 이 $K_x$값을 표준정규분포로 변환하고 Monte Carlo Simulation을 통해 난수를 발생시켜 100개의 무차원 저류상수 $K_x$를 산정하였다. 이 값을 사용하여 설계홍수량을 산정하기 위한 대표 매개변수의 불확실성 분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 상사성이 있는 것으로 판별된 유역의 호우사상을 통합하는 경우 양질의 호우사상을 다수 확보하고 있는 유역이 추가되면 홍수량 산정결과가 개선되는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, a practical procedure for the design optimization of tubular-steel-pile-type substructure in a mooring dolphin is investigated and numerically evaluated. In the finite-dimensional optimum design formulation, geometry and cross-sectional shapes of classified group of piles are identified as design variables. The design objective is the total weight of piles, and the design constraints on stresses, penetration depth, and size limits are imposed. Several classes of practical design alternatives are sought through the linking and fixing of design variables. Among the available numerical optimization codes, both PLBA program and DNCONF subroutine in IMSL library are used. They are based on SQP algorithm and relatively easy to get. A dolphin of numerical example has 20 tubular steel piles, 4 vertical and 16 inclined. Optimum designs for different cases are successfully obtained for the practical purpose.

This paper presents a systematic approach for estimating material performance and designing mix proportion of concrete based on an application of Bayesian method in the form of satisfaction curves. The one-parameter satisfaction curve represents a satisfaction probability of a concrete performance criterion as a function of concrete material parameter. An analysis method to combine multiple satisfaction curves to form one unique satisfaction curve that can relate the performance of concrete to a single evaluating value called Goodness value is proposed. A proposed PBMD procedure and examples of application of the PBMD method for concrete mix proportion design are carried out to verify the validity of the proposed method. Finally, the comparison between the expected performance results of a concrete mix proportion designed using PBMD to the ACI estimation equation calculated results are performed to check the applicability of the method to actual construction.

In this paper, the optimization has been performed to design a multi-layer structure that is used as a structure for noise reduction of acoustic sonar sensors in underwater vehicles. Two design goals are considered to reduce self-noise from own machineries and to enhance acoustic signals detected from outside. Both distinct and continuous design parameters have been used such as selection of material properties of each layer and thickness of each layer, respectively. The sensitivity of design parameters has been analyzed and the evolutionary algorithm has been implemented for design optimization. For design optimization process, each of the design goals and the two combined design goals have been considered to analyze the achievement of those design goals.

A simulation program is developed to analyse the performance of an axial flow turbine stage based on the meanline prediction method. The gradient projection method is utilized to minimize the aerodynamic losses under the specified constraints on such as flow coefficient, total pressure ratio, stage power and blade loading coefficient. After obtaining the optimum point for minimizing the stage loss, a sensitivity analysis is carried out ground the optimum point to find the effects of the design variables and the design constraints on the stage performance. The result of the senitivity analysis under a constant blade loading coefficient shows that the total loss is more sensitive to the mean diameter, the absolute flow angle at nozzle outlet, the relative flow angle at rotor outlet and the axial mean velocity compared to the chords and the pitches. Moreover, the design constraints on the degree of reaction at root and the blade length-to-diameter ratio are found to be most influencial on the maximization of the overall aerodynamic efficiency.

The purpose of the present study is to develop an analysis model to analyze the design parameter sensitivity of a high-power drifter suitable for implementation in Korean hydraulic drills. This study aims to establish a basis for the optimization of the impact performance and stability of a high-power drifter by investigating the effects of each design parameter on the impact performance via design parameter sensitivity analysis. To begin, an analysis model of drifter dynamics is developed, and the reliability of the analysis model is verified by comparing the analysis results to the experimental results. The drifter is then redesigned for compatibility with Korean hydraulic drills. Finally, design parameter sensitivity analysis of the redesigned drifter is conducted to determine the effects of the design parameters on the impact performance, and to extract the high-sensitivity parameters. SimulationX, which is multi-physics analysis software, is used to develop the analysis model, and EasyDesign is employed for design parameter sensitivity analysis.

Uncertainties in physical and engineering parameters for the design of shallow foundations arise from various aspects such as inherent variability and measurement error. This paper aims at investigating and reducing uncertainty from deterministic method by using the reliability-based design of shallow foundations accounting for the variation of various design parameters. A probability distribution type and statistics of random variables such as unit weight, cohesion, infernal friction angle and Young's modulus in geotechnical engineering are suggested to calculate the ultimate bearing capacities and immediate settlements of foundations. Reliability index and probability of failure are estimated based on the distribution types of random variables. Widths of foundation are calculated at target reliability index and probability of failure. It is found that application and analysis of the best-fit distribution type for each random variables are more effective than adoption of the normal distribution type in optimizing the reliability-based design of shallow foundations.

Most previous studies for finding optimal design parameters of a tuned mass damper(TMD) have been focused on the harmonic excited single-degree-of freedom system. In this study, optimal values of damping ratio and tuning frequency ratio of a TMD applied to control a seismically excited structure are investigated through numerical analyses. Considering that the structural responses due to earthquake loads are strongly dependent on the soil condition, the site effects on the optimal parameters of the TMD are studied and compared to those presented by previous studies. Numerical analyses results indicate that better control performance can be obtained by using the parameters proposed by this study in the seismic application of the TMD.
