고속열차의 공기저항 저감을 위해 KTX-산천의 구성요소별 공기저항을 상세하게 분석하였다. 전체 공기저항의 약 42.9%는 동력차(선두차, 후미차)에서 그리고 약 10.1%는 대차에서 유발되는 것으로 나타났다. 전두부의 공기저항 저감을 위해 Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno 기법을 이용한 전두부 최적설계를 수행하였다. 그리고 차체 공기저항 저감을 위해 동력차 형상 변화 및 대차커버를 적용하였다. 공기저항 저감을 위해 최적설계된 편성열차의 공기저항은 KTX-산천 대비 약 15.0% 저감되었으며, 주행저항은 속도 350km/h에서 약 12% 감소될 것으로 예상된다.

In this study, the reliability-based design optimization of the airfoil was performed. PARSEC function was used to consider the uncertainty of the aerodynamic shape for the reliability-based shape optimization of airfoils. Among various reliability analysis methods, the moment method was used to compute the probability of failure of the aerodynamic performance. The accuracy of the reliability analysis was compared with other methods and it was found that the moment method predicts the probability of failure accurately. Deterministic and reliability-based optimizations were performed for the shape of the airfoil and it was demonstrated that reliability-based optimum assures the aerodynamic performances under uncertainties of the shape of the airfoil.

The conventional reliability based design optimization(RBDO) methods require high computational cost compared with the deterministic design optimization(DO) methods. To overcome the computational inefficiency of RBDO, single loop methods have been proposed. These need less function calls than that of RBDO but much more than that of DO. In this study, the approximate reliability method is proposed that the computational requirement is nearly the same as DO and the reliability accuracy is good compared with that of RBDO. Using this method, the 3-D viscous aerodynamic shape design optimization with uncertainty is performed very efficiently.

As central-slotted box decks usually have excellent flutter performance, studies on this type of deck mostly focus on the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) control. Yet with the increasing span lengths, cable-supported bridges may have critical wind speeds of wind-induced static instability lower than that of the flutter. This is especially likely for bridges with a central-slotted box deck. As a result, the overall aerodynamic performance of such a bridge will depend on its wind-induced static stability. Taking a 1400 m-main-span cable-stayed bridge as an example, this study investigates the influence of a series of deck shape parameters on both static and flutter instabilities. Some crucial shape parameters, like the height ratio of wind fairing and the angle of the inner-lower web, show opposite influences on the two kinds of instabilities. The aerodynamic shape optimization conducted for both static and flutter instabilities on the deck based on parameter-sensitivity studies raises the static critical wind speed by about 10%, and the overall critical wind speed by about 8%. Effective VIV countermeasures for this type of bridge deck have also been proposed.

This research describes on airfoil shape design, crucial to core technique and algorithm optimization for the wind turbine blade development. We grasped the parameter to define the airfoil shape in the wind turbine blade and aircraft, and the important performance characteristic of the airfoil. The airfoil shape function is selected by studying which is suitable for wind turbine blade airfoil development. The selected method is verified by to compare the generated airfoil shape with base airfoil. The new airfoils were created by the selecting shape function based on the well-known airfoil for wind turbine blades. In addition, we performed aerodynamic analysis about the generated airfoils by XFOIL and estimated the point of difference in the airfoil shape parameter using the aerodynamic performance results which is compared with basic airfoil. This result data applies to the fundamental research for a wind turbine blade optimization design and accomplished the aerodynamic analysis manual.

This paper reviews shape optimization studies for tall and super-tall building design. Firstly, shape effects on aerodynamic and response characteristics are introduced and discussed. Effects of various configurations such as corner modifications, taper, setback, openings, and twists are examined. Comprehensive comparative studies on various configurations including polygon building models, and composite type building models such as corner-cut and taper, corner-cut and taper and helical, and so on, are also discussed under the conditions of the same height and volume. Aerodynamic characteristics are improved by increasing the twist angle of helical buildings and increasing the number of sides of polygon buildings, but a twist angle of $180^{\circ}$ and a number of sides of 5 (pentagon) seem to be enough. The majority of examined configurations show better aerodynamic characteristics than straight-square. In particular, composite type buildings and helical polygon buildings show significant improvement. Next, shape effects on pedestrian-level wind characteristics around tall and super-tall buildings are introduced and discussed. Corner modification buildings show significant reductions in speed-up areas. On the other hand, setback and tapered models with wider projected widths near the ground show adverse effects on pedestrian-level wind characteristics.

다양한 3차원 전두부 형상을 효과적으로 모델링할 수 있는 열차형상함수를 이용하여 실제 차량인 KTX 산천 전두부 형상의 공기저항을 저감하는 최적설계를 수행하였다. KTX 산천 전두부의 2차원 단면형상의 특성 곡선을 추출하고 열차형상함수를 이용하여 KTX 산천의 최적설계용 유선형 기본형상을 구성하였다. 기본형상을 이용해 상용 고속열차 전두부의 형상 제약조건을 위반하지 않는 설계공간을 구축하였다. Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno 알고리즘을 이용한 최적설계를 수행하여 기본형상 대비 약 6%의 공기저항을 저감할 수 있었다. 최적형상은 기본형상에 비해 전두부 길이가 길고 끝단이 약간 날카로운 형상을 가져 후미차량에서의 와류의 크기를 줄임으로써 공기저항을 저감하였다.

Optimization with metamodel is one of numerical optimization methods. Response surface method is performed for making metamodel. The Hcks-Henne function is used for designing 2D shape of the airfoil and spring analogy is used to change the grid according to the change in shape of the airfoil. Aerodynamic coefficient required for response surface method are obtained by using Navier-Stokes solver with $\kappa-\omega$ shear stress transport turbulence model. For the baseline airfoils, OA 312, OA 309, and OA 407 airfoils select and optimize to improve aerodynamic performance.
