본 연구는 개수로 흐름에서 조류발전단지의 터빈 최적 배열의 거시적 특성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 천수방정식을 통해 직사각형 개수로의 흐름장을 해석하였고, 상류와 하류단에 대해 각각 유입경계조건(inlet boundary condition)과 Flather 형식의 개방경계조건(open boundary condition)을 부여하여 일정 유량으로 흐르는 개수로 흐름을 구현하였다. 더불어, Strickler의 법칙을 확장한 반력공식을 연계하여, 개수로 흐름에 대한 조류 터빈의 영향을 반영하였다. 주어진 상류의 흐름 조건에 대해 조류발전량을 최대로 하는 최적 배열을 구하기 위해 터빈 반력모형을 연계한 천수방정식, 터빈간 최소간격, 그리고 발전단지영역을 제한조건으로 하는 발전량 최대화 문제를 구성하였다. 여기서 조류 터빈의 위치를 나타내는 벡터를 설계변수로 두었는데, 설계되는 터빈의 수가 증가함에 따라 최적화 문제의 계산량이 증가하지 않도록 수반법(adjoint method)을 경사도기반법(gradient-based method)에 연계한 방법이 이용되었다. 다수의 터빈초기배치로 상당한 수치실험이 수행되었고, 발전량 최대화를 이루도록 최적화된 터빈의 배치들이 큰 규모에서 고유한 형상으로 수렴함을 확인하였다. 이러한 특성은 발전단지의 너비와 터빈의 최소간격의 함수로 정의된 무차원수 E를 바탕으로 설명되었다. 구체적으로, E가 1보다 작을 때에는 선형배열이 최적배열로 나타났고, E가 1을 넘어 점차 커짐에 따라 하류에 오목한 형상을 보이다가 V-형태로 발전하는 양상을 보였다. 또한, 어느 임계 수 이상의 터빈이 배치되는 경우 일열 배열을 유지하지 못하고 이열 배열로 분리됨이 관찰되었다.

Minimum weight design of the boom of an excavator with stress and displacement constraints was performed. The procedure of analysis consists of the following steps. The finite element model of the boom was built up by using 227 triangular plate elements each of which has three nodes. And then the finite element program was implemented and its accuracy was verified by comparing its results with those of the commercial structural analysis package-ANSYS 4.4A. For the constraints of stresses and displacements, the design sensitivities of those were computed using direct differentiation method. To verify the reliability of them the results were compared with those of the finite difference method. The optimum design value was obtained by using PLBA(Pshenichny-Lim-Belegundu-Arora)non-linear optimization program which adopts the active set strategy. Using the above results, minimum weight design of an excavator boom showed an effect of 27% reduction in weight.

The behavior of nose-deck system during launch was examined by three dimensionless launching parameters, such as the relative flexural stiffness, the relative nose weight, and the relative nose length. The techniques of optimizing the launching nose were illustrated and equations of relationship between relative nose weight and relative nose length were derived under minimum conditions of the launching negative and positive moment. Equations of maximum positive and negative moment were suggested under the conditions. The optimum design method of the launching nose was proposed in launched continuous girder bridges. It was found that the ideal launching nose was to design that with the relative nose weight of 0.167 and the relative nose length of 0.836 to minimize absolute values of the positive and negative moment during launch.

Usually, there are many uncertainties regarding the error of an assumed load, material properties, member size, and structure analysis in a structure, and it may have a direct influence on the qualities of optimal design of structures. Probabilistic analysis has developed rapidly into a desirable process and structural reliability analysis is an increasingly important tool that assists engineers to consider uncertainties during the design, construction and life of a structure to calculate its probability of failure. This study deals with the applications of two optimization techniques to solve the reliability-based optimization problem of structures. The reliability-based optimization problem was formulated as a minimization of the structural volume subject to the constraints on the values of componential reliability index determined by the AFOSM approach. This presented method may be a useful tool for the reliability-based design optimization of structures.

During the shape optimization, relocations of nodes happen successively. However, excessive movement of nodes often results in the mesh distortion and eventually deteriorates the accuracy of the optimum solution. To overcome this problem, an efficient method lot the shape optimization has been developed. The method starts from the design domain which is large enough to hold the possible shape of the structure. The design domain has pre-defined uniform fine meshes. In each cycle, the method allots real properties to the elements inside the structure and nearly zero to ones outside. The performance of the method is evaluated through two examples with displacement and frequency constraints.

A nonlinear dynamic response structural optimization process is proposed for the television (TV) packing system that protects the damage from a drop situation using the equivalent static loads (ESLs). Topology optimization using ESLs is carried out for conceptual design, and shape optimization using stress ESLs for a virtual model is performed for detailed design. Stress ESLs are static loads that generate the same displacement as well as the stress fields of linear static analysis as those of nonlinear dynamic analysis. Thus, the response of nonlinear dynamic analysis can be utilized as a constraint in the linear static structural optimization. An actual example is solved to validate the process. The drop test of a television packaging system is analyzed by LS-DYNA, and NASTRAN is used for optimization.

원점(초점)에 놓인 광원(점광원)으로부터 방사된 ray들을 광축과 평행하게 진행하도록 그 진로의 방향을 바꾸어주는 것이 대형등명기의 광학부(중심렌즈부, 굴절링부, 절사프리즘부) 역할이다. 그래서 광학부에 대한 정밀한 설계가 이루어져야 하지만, 기존의 광학부 설계법은 어떤 설계 조건과 제작환경에 맞지 않는다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Ray Tracing과 배광예측 프로그램인 Photopia 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 설계의 문제점을 찾고, 설계조건과 제작환경에 맞는 최적의 설계가 되도록 개선안을 제시하고 설계법을 도출하였다. 단, 초점에 위치한 광원은 모두 점광원으로 하였다.

Structural optimization is widely adopted in the design of structures with the development of computer aided design and computer technique recently. By applying the structural optimization in the last decades, designers have gained the design scheme of structures more feasibly and easily. In this paper, an optimal design of one 30-story high rise steel structure is performed considering material non-linearity. Based on finite element analysis and adaptive simulated annealing algorithm, the optimal weight of structure is derived under constraints of allowable yield stress, shear stress and serviceability.

경계 요소법을 이용하여 Finely-focused ion beam 시스템을 위한 전계형 시뮬레 이터를 개발하였다. 경계 요소법을 시뮬레이터에 적용함으로써 기존의 유한 요소법, 차분근 사법에서는 피할 수 없었던 내부격자망 구성이 불필요하게 됨에 따라 계산속도를 현저히 줄 일 뿐만 아니라 불규칙 경계에 대한 요소분할이 가능하게 되어 최적렌즈구조 설계의 새로운 요소인 전극구조의 모양을 자유롭게 시뮬레이션 할 수 있게 되었다. 또한 개발된 시뮬레이 터를 이용하여 최적조건을 만족하는 구조를 제안한다. 이때 렌즈설계조건은 beam half-angle 3.0 mrad, working distance 50mm, 빔에너지 퍼짐 (beam energy spread) 10eV, 가속에너지 35keV이다.
