본 연구에서는 구조물 최적 설계시 필수적인 설계민감도 해석을 의사변분법을 도입하여 유한차원 구조물에 적용함으로써 구조물 최적설계를 기존의 방법보다 훨씬 간편하게 할 수 있음을 보인다. 정하중하에서 제약조건의 주종을 이루고 있는 변위 및 응력의 제약조건에 대하여 설계민감도 해석 및 그 수치해를 구하며 나아가 최적화 알고리리즘을 사용하여 최적설계가 효율적으로 수행됨을 입증한다. 유한차원 구조물인 트러스의 적당한 경계조건, 하중조건 및 제약조건하에서 구조물의 무게를 최소화 시키는 최적설계 문제를 고려한다.

A general formulation for shape design sensitivity analysis over three dimensional beam structure is developed based on a variational formulation of the beam in linear elasticity. Sensitivity formula is derived based on variational equations in cartesian coordinates using the material derivative concept and adjoint variable method for the displacement and Von-Mises stress functionals. Shape variation is considered for the beam shape in general 3-dimensional direction as well as for the orientation angle of the beam cross section. In the sensitivity expression, the end points evaluation at each beam segment is added to the integral formula, which are summed over the entire structure. The sensitivity formula can be evaluated with generality and ease even by employing piecewise linear design velocity field despite the bending model is fourth order differential equation. For the numerical implementation, commercial software ANSYS is used as analysis tool for the primal and adjoint analysis. Once the design variable set is defined using ANSYS language, shape and orientation variation vector at each node is generated by making finite difference to the shape with respect to each design parameter, and is used for the computation of sensitivity formula. Several numerical examples are taken to show the advantage of the method, in which the accuracy of the sensitivity is evaluated. The results are found excellent even by employing a simple linear function for the design velocity evaluation. Shape optimization is carried out for the geometric design of an archgrid and tilted bridge, which is to minimize maximum stress over the structure while maintaining constant weight. In conclusion, the proposed formulation is a useful and easy tool in finding optimum shape in a variety of the spatial frame structures.

본 논문에서는 등기하 해석법을 이용하여 평면 탄성문제의 변분식을 유도하였다. 등기하 해석법은 새로이 부각되고 있는 해석법으로서 기저 함수가 NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) 로부터 직접 생성되므로 해 공간은 CAD 모델을 구성하는 함수로써 표현된다. 또한 CAD 모델의 B-Spline 기저 함수를 직접 사용하므로 기하학적으로 엄밀한 형상을 표현할 수 있고 요소망의 재구성 없이 해석모델을 정밀화(Refinement)할 수 있는 강점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 확장하여 연속체 기반의 애드조인트 설계 민감도 해석법을 사용하는 등기하 설계민감도 해석법을 유도하였다. 기존의 유한요소 기반형상 최적설계는 형상의 매개화에 어려움을 겪었으나 등기하 기반 최적설계에서는 기하학적 정보가 이미 B-spline 기저함수와 조정점에 포함되어 있으므로 이러한 어려움을 피할 수 있는 잠재력을 가지고 있다. 몇몇 수치 예제를 통해서 등기하 해석법을 사용한 설계 민감도 해석을 수행하였으며 유한차분 민감도와 비교하여 정확성을 확인하였다.

Design sensitivity analysis method for the vibration of vehicle structure is developed using adjoint variable method. A variational approach with complex response method is used to derive sensitivity expression. To evaluate sensitivity, FEM analysis of ship deck and vehicle structure are performed using MSC/NASTRAN on the super computer CRAY2S, and sensitivity computation is carried on PC. The accuracy of sensitivity is verified by the results of finite difference method. When compared to structural analysis time on CRAY2S, sensitivity computation is remarkably economical. The sensitivity of vehicle frame can be used to reduce the vibration responses such as displacement and acceleration of vehicle.

Aerodynamic sensitivity analysis is performed for the Navier-Stokes equations coupled with two-equation turbulence models using a discrete adjoint method and a direct differentiation method respectively. Like the mean flow equations, the turbulence model equations are also hand-differentiated to accurately calculate the sensitivity derivatives of flow quantities with respect to design variables in turbulent viscous flows. The sensitivity codes are then compared with the flow solver in terms of solution accuracy, computing time and computer memory requirements. The sensitivity derivatives obtained from the sensitivity codes with different turbulence models are compared with each other. The capability of the present sensitivity codes to treat complex geometry is successfully demonstrated by analyzing the flows over multi-element airfoils on Chimera overlaid grid systems.

In the reliability-based design optimization of electromagnetic devices, the accurate and efficient reliability assessment method is very essential. The first-order sensitivity-assisted Monte Carlo Simulation is proposed in the former research. In order to improve its accuracy for wide application, in this paper, the second-order sensitivity analysis is presented by using the hybrid direct differentiation-adjoint variable method incorporated with the finite element method. By combining the second-order sensitivity with the Monte Carlo Simulation method, the second-order sensitivity-assisted Monte Carlo Simulation algorithm is proposed to implement reliability calculation. Through application to one superconductor magnetic energy storage system, its accuracy is validated by comparing calculation results with other methods.

The adjoint variable topology sensitivity equations are derived using the continuum method for three dimension. The sensitivity is verified using the Finite Difference Method(FDM). Convection interpolation function is proposed for density method of topologies such that convection term can be taken into consideration for practical design in the process of the optimization.

본 논문에서는 애조인 설계민감도(DSA)를 사용하여 평형상태의 열전도문제에서 수치적으로 얻어진 위상 최적설계를 실험적으로 검증하였다. 애조인 변수법을 이용하면 해석에서 사용되었던 행렬시스템을 애조인 문제를 풀 때 그대로 활용가능하기 때문에 설계민감도를 얻는데 필요한 계산을 매우 효율적으로 수행할 수 있다. 위상 최적설계를 위해서 설계변수는 정규화된 재료밀도 함수로 정하였다. 목적함수는 구조물의 열 컴플라이언스이고 제한조건은 허용 가능한 재료량이다. 또한 열화상카메라를 활용하여 이러한 위상 최적설계로 얻어진 수치적 결과를 부피가 동일하도록 직관적으로 설계된 디자인과 비교하여 실험적으로 검증하였다. 위상 최적설계로 얻어진 결과를 실제로 제작하기 위해 간단한 수치기법을 통해 점 정보로 변환한 후 역설계 상용프로그램을 이용하여 CAD 모델링을 수행한다. 이를 바탕으로 위상 최적설계 결과를 CNC(Computerized Numerically Controlled machine tools) 선반으로 제작하였다.
