Substructuring-based hierarchical approach for design analysis and optimization of structural frames is presented in this study. The conceptual framework of this method is in the hierarchical modeling for design processes as well as structural systems and the methodology combining substructuring analysis and multilevel optimization. Mathematical models for analysis and synthesis are established on the common basis of substructuring systems. Modularized behavioral analysis, design sensitivity analysis and optimization are linked and integrated on the mathematical and structural basis of substructuring. Substructures are coordinated with the active constraints for system level and the weight ratio criteria. Numerical examples for test frames show the validity and effectiveness of the present approach.

An integrated environment for optimum design has been developed using Motif. The integrated environment is composed of the preprocessor, the postprocessor and the optimization part. The preprocessor is part of making a finite element model for optimum structural design and the postprocessor displays results of optimum design and the optimization part is the part which execute optimization. It is designed to reduce user's difficulties in structural optimum design. It used Graphic User Interface for the concurrent representation of various inputs and outputs through the dialog box, mouse and keyboard. Structural optimum design can be done easily through dialog box, menu, concurrent representation of modeling process and results of structural optimum design can be understood easily through stress contour, deformed model and graph of cost function.

통합 플랫폼의 연계모듈은 구조시스템 대안생성, 구조해석, 구조설계를 수행하는 여러 프로그램들의 자료교환을 지원하는 모듈로서, buildingSMART International에서 개발한 표준자료모델을 기반으로 한다. 이 표준자료모델은 다양한 건축물의 기획부터 유지관리 단계까지를 대상으로 하므로 많은 자료들이 복잡하게 얽혀있어 그 전체적인 구조와 상세한 내용을 파악하기 곤란하다. 그러므로 통합 플랫폼의 여러 프로그램들에 표준자료모델 기반의 자료교환 기능 추가에는 많은 시간과 노력이 소요된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이러한 시간과 노력을 절감할 수 있는 연계모듈 구조를 제안하고 이를 일부 구현하였으며, 간단한 적용사례를 통하여 타당성을 검토하였다.

MDO (multidisciplinary design optimization) technology has been proposed and applied to solve large and complex optimization problems where multiple disciplinaries are involved. In this research. an MDO problem is defined for automobile design which has crashworthiness analyses. Crash model which are consisted of airbag, belt integrated seat (BIS), energy absorbing steering system .and safety belt is selected as a practical example for MDO application to vehicle system. Through disciplinary analysis, vehicle system is decomposed into structure subspace and occupant subspace, and coupling variables are identified. Before subspace optimization, values of coupling variables at given design point must be determined with system analysis. The system analysis in MDO is very important in that the coupling between disciplines can be temporary disconnected through the system analysis. As a result of system analysis, subspace optimizations are independently conducted. However, in vehicle crash, system analysis methods such as Newton method and fixed-point iteration can not be applied to one. Therefore, new system analysis algorithm is developed to apply to crashworthiness. It is conducted for system analysis to determine values of coupling variables. MDO algorithm which is applied to vehicle crash is MDOIS (Multidisciplinary Design Optimization Based on Independent Subspaces). Then, structure and occupant subspaces are independently optimized by using MDOIS.

Designer must cope with frequent changes in geometric information of automobile suspension module in the early stage of the design process. The authors developed the PSG(Parametric Set Generator) to create parametric models and to change geometric information concerning the lower arm, which is one of the important parts of the automobile suspension module. CAD models provided from the PSG can be utilized to assess fatigue durability via the FE modeling support system. This system provides easy and fast FE-modeling for a static and durability analysis of the lower arm. The PSG and the FE modeling support system are integrated using the e-engineering framework based on the JADE platform. In this study, a durability analysis as a case study for the lower arm manufactured at H company is performed, and the efficiency obtained is discussed.

This paper describes the design optimization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs). An optimization framework has been developed and implemented for the conceptual design of UAVs. An integrated design analysis program was developed with several analysis modules such as propulsion, performance, mission, weight, and stability and control. A UAV configuration design optimization was performed by implementing the integrated analysis to enhance the endurance of UAVs. A SQP optimizer was utilized to build an optimization module for this program and sensitivity analysis was performed to determine the trends of shape variables for developing optimization objective. In conclusion, the results indicate that the resulting optimized UAVs configurations show performance improvements over the baseline design and reliable analysis results.

In this paper, an integrated S/W system from CAD to optimal design has been suggested and an application to a precision machine tool structure shown. The integrated system is so designed to reduce manual interfacing effort. An object-oriented programming language is used for combining 3-D CAD program, FEM and optimal design tools. In this system parametric modelling technique is applied and users can get the optimum design iteratively without much user intervention. The CAD model is automatically updated when the design parameters are transferred back to the CAD program. Not only design time can be dramatically reduced but unnecessary operation errors avoided by the integration.
