Conventional slope stability analysis is focused on calculating minimum factor of safety or maximum probability of failure. To minimize inherent uncertainty of soil properties and analytical model and to reflect various analytical models and its failure shape in slope stability analysis, slope stability analysis method considering simultaneous failure probability for multi failure mode was proposed. Linear programming recently introduced in system reliability analysis was used for calculation of simultaneous failure probability. System reliability analysis for various analytical models could be executed by this method. Optimum design to determine angle of a simple slope is executed for multi failure mode using linear programming. Because of complex consideration for various failure shapes and modes, it is possible to secure advanced safety by using simultaneous failure probability.

디젤 기관의 신뢰성 평가는 일반적으로 운전주에 발생한 사고 내용을 통계처리하여 팡가하기 때문에 운전자가 사전에 사고 발생을 예견하여 적절한 시기에 예방정비를 한다든지 기관의 상태에 따른 최적 운전조건을 파악하여 기관을 안전하게 운전하는데 어려움이 있다. 또한 디제 기관을 새로이 개발한다든지 설계 변경을 할 경우 기관의 신뢰성을 평가하는데도 상당한 어려움이 있다, 본논문에서는 선박용 주기관으로 사용되는 디젤기관을 대상으로하여 디젤기관의 운전상태에 따른 운전신뢰성을 예측할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였으며 예측결과를 실험결과와 비교·검토하였다.

This paper proposes a derating design method for improving system reliability by using a probabilistic approach. In the proposed design, the focus is upon system levels in determining derated levels of stresses such as temperature and current, unlike recent design approaches that focus on component levels. System reliability is evaluated using component reliability metrics that are given as functions of time and unknown stresses; this evaluation is based on a series system-reliability model. The variation in stress, which was not considered in previous derating designs, is introduced in the present design to account for the uncertainty in both environmental and operating conditions at the customer' hands. Optimization problems for system reliability improvement are formulated and solved using FORM to determine the best derating design. An example of a derating design for an electrical system shows the details of the proposed method and its applicability to systems design for reliability improvement.

Optimal reliability indices were found by optimizing life cycle cost(LCC) of pier type quay walls. Failure probability of pier and shore bridge were calculated by response surface method. Then, they were used to obtain recovery cost after damage. Costs for initial construction and maintenance were also considered in finding optimal reliability indices. Target reliability indices which may be used in reliability based design were suggested by numerical examples under seismic load and ship load.

In general, the strength and stiffness of laminated composite cylindrical shells are very sensitive to the variation of slenderness parameters, some coupling-stiffness parameters, lamination angles, stacking sequence and number of layers. In this paper, the effects of these factors on the strength and buckling reliabilities of GFRP laminated cylindrical shells are investigated based on the proposed strength and buckling limit state models. As these factors have various and complicated effects on the strength and buckling reliabilities of GFRP laminated cylindrical shells, the results should be incorporated into the design formula such that optimum design technique and design code which provide uniform consistent reliability for balanced design in practice

Throttle Control 장치는 차량의 지능화와 연료 절감의 이유로 기계식에서 전기적 신호의 연결로 구동시키는 시스템으로 발전하고 있다. 전기 전자 시스템을 도입한 ETC(Electronic Throttle Control)의 구성요소 중 필수적인 구동 원으로 DC모터를 많이 사용하고 있지만, DC모터는 정류작용 시 브러시의 스파크를 발생시키는 단점을 가진다. 이에 전기적 및 기계적 Noise가 적고 신뢰성이 높으며 수명이 긴 BLDC 모터의 개발이 필요하다. 이에 BLDC 모터의 기초 설계와 최적 설계를 통해 형상을 설계하고 이를 정자계 유한요소법을 이용하여 해석하고 목표 토크인 0.2[Nm]에 적합한 BLDC 모터를 설계하였다.

In this paper, the operating stiffness of a parallel robot used to handle heavy packages is optimized. Because the studied model, called a "pick and place robot," is applied for packaging logistics, it is important for the robot to be lightweight so that it may respond rapidly and have high stiffness to allow sufficient operating precision. However, these two requirements of low weight and high stiffness are mutually exclusive. Thus, the dynamic characteristics of the robot are analyzed through multibody dynamics analysis, and topology optimization is conducted to achieve this exclusive performance. Lastly, the reliability of the topology optimization is verified by applying the optimized design to the parallel robot.

The automobile suspension system is composed of parts that affect performances of a vehicle such as ride quality, handling characteristics, straight performance and steering effort, etc. Moreover, by using the finite element analysis the cost for the initial design step can be decreased. In the design of a suspension system, usually system vibration and structural rigidity must be considered simultaneously to satisfy dynamic and static requirements simultaneously. In this paper, we consider the weight reduction and the increase of the first eigen-frequency of a suspension part, the upper control arm, especially using topology optimization and size optimization. Firstly, we obtain the initial design to maximize the first eigen-frequency using topology optimization. Then, we apply the multi-objective parameter optimization method to satisfy both the weight reduction and the increase of the first eigen-frequency. The design variables are varying during the optimization process for the multi-objective. Therefore, we can obtain the deterministic values of the design variables not only to satisfy the terms of variation limits but also to optimize the two design objectives at the same time. Finally, we have executed reliability based optimal design on the upper control arm using the Monte-Carlo method with importance sampling method for the optimal design result with 98％ reliability.
