Laser welding application for car body manufacturing has many advantages in the stiffness and the lightness of vehicle, the productivity of assembly line, and the degree of freedom in design. This presentation will express the innovation of car body manufacturing including parameter optimization, process modeling, and system integration. In this application the investment for systems was cut down dramatically by real time switching over the laser path between two welding stations. Points of technical discussion are as follows; optimization of parameters such as laser power, robot speed and trajectory, compact and useful design of jig & fixture to assure welding quality for 3 sheet-layer zinc-coated steel, system integration between 4㎾ Nd:YAG laser device and the other systems, on-line real time welding quality monitoring system, perfect safety standards for high power laser, minimization of consumption costs such as arc lamp, protective glass for optic, etc. This application was successfully launched mass production line in 2001. The laser-welded line of side panel consists of 122 stitches totally. And the length is about 2.4m.

This paper describes an application of centrifugal compressor optimization system, in which the blade profile of impeller is represented with NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) curve. A commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) program named NUMECA fine/turbo was used to evaluate the performance of the whole centrifugal compressor flow passage including impeller and diffuser. The whole optimization design system was integrated based on iSIGHT, a commercial integration and optimization software, which provides a direct application of some optimization algorithms. To insure the practicability of optimization, the performance of centrifugal compressor under all condition was concerned during the optimizing process. That means a compositive object function considering the aerodynamic efficiency, pressure ratio and mass flow rate under different work condition was applied by using different weight number for different conditions. Using the optimization method described in this paper, an optimized design of the impeller blade of centrifugal compressor was obtained. Comparing to the original design, optimized design has a better performance not only under the design work condition, but also the off-design work condition including near stall and near choke condition.

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.

본 논문은 초음속 추진을 이용한 미사일 시스템에 대한 궤적최적화에 대한 연구를 소개한다. 초음속 추진 시스템은 외부비행조건과 내부 연소 환경에 따른 복잡하고 비선형성이 강한 추력특성을 가진다. 이러한 이유로 초음속 비행체의 운용에 있어 많은 구속조건을 가지며 일반 비행체보다 좁은 비행영역안에서 운용되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 특성을 가지는 초음속 비행체의 궤적최적화를 수행하고 보다 효율적인 운용에 대한 비전을 제시하고자 한다. 궤적최적화는 일반적인 초음속 추진에 관련한 구속조건들을 고려하며 수행되었고, 궤적최적화 결과를 통해 얻어진 효율적 연료공급 및 노즐 목 면적 제어에 대한 일반적인 운용 및 응용방안에 대해서 고찰하고자 한다.

Artificial immune systems (AIS) are one of natural computing inspired by the natural immune system. The fault detection, the pattern recognition, the system control and the optimization are major application area of artificial immune systems. This paper gives a concept of artificial immune systems and useful techniques as like the clonal selection, the immune network theory and the negative selection. A concise survey on the optimization problem based on artificial immune systems is generated. The overall performance of artificial immune systems for the optimization problem is discussed.

MDO (Multidisciplinary Design Optimization) methodology is an emerging new technology to solve a complicate structural analysis and design problem with a large number of design variables and constraints. In this paper MDO methodology is adopted through the use of computer aided systems such as Geometric Solid Modeller, Mesh Generator, CAD system and CAE system. And this paper introduces MDO methodology as a new method for structural analysis and design through the application to the structural design of flap drive system. In a MDO methodology application to the structural design of flap drive system, kinetodynamic analysis is done using a simple aerodynamic analysis model for the air flow over the flap surface instead of difficult aerodynamic analysis. Simultaneously the structural static analysis is done to obtain the optimum structural condition. And the structural buckling analysis for push pull rod is also done to confirm the optimum structural condition (optimum cross section shape of push pull rod).

To empower safe, economical and eco-friendly sustainable solution for enhancing oil and gas productivity from deep water reservoirs, new downhole technologies are recommended. Since electric machine plays leading role in the downhole application, it is a squeezing requirement for researchers to design and develop advanced electric machine. The Recent improvement in technology and uses of high-temperature magnets, permanent magnet flux switching machine (PMFSM) has become one of the appropriate contenders for offshore drilling but fewer designed for downhole due to ambient temperature. Therefore this comprehensive study deals with the design optimization and performance analysis of outer rotor PMFSM for the downhole application. Preliminary, the basic design parameters needed for machine design are calculated mathematically. Then the design refinement technique is implemented through deterministic method. Finally, initial and optimized performance of the machine is compared and as a result the output torque is increase from 16.39 Nm to 33.57 Nm while diminishing the cogging torque and PM weight up to 1.77 Nm and 0.79 kg, respectively. Therefore, it is concluded that purposed optimized design is suitable for the downhole application.

많은 Buyer들이 품질의 기본조건으로 요구하는 완제품 Burn-in 시간은 실제 필요 이상으로 긴 시간일 수 있으며 생산자 입장에서 Cost, Delivery, Capacity 등의 제약으로 이행하기 어려운 경우가 종종 있다. 본 연구는 생산자에게 실무적으로 적용이 용이하고 Buyer에게 설득력있는 최적 Burn-in 시간 근거를 제시할 수 있도록, 구간개념과 Curve Fitting 방법을 적용하여 최적 Burn-in 시간을 추정하고 시간대별 Reliability를 산출 비교해 봄으로서 생산자 입장에서 Burn-in 시간을 결정하고 Reliability 추정 Model을 결정해 갈 수 있도록 하였다. 향후 제시된 Burn-in 시간의 최적여부는 Field Data로부터 검증되어야 할 것이다.

This paper presents an application of optimization method for efficient operation in micro grid. For operational efficiency, the objective function in a diesel generator consists of the fuel cost function similar to the cost functions used for the conventional fossil-fuel generating plants. The wind turbine generator is modeled by the characteristics of variable output. The cost function of fuel cell plant considers the efficiency of fuel cell. Particle swarm optimization(PSO) and sequential quadratic programming(SQP) are used for solving the problem of microgrid system operation. Also, from the results this paper presents the way to attend power markets which can buy and sell power from upper lever grids by connecting a various generation resources to micro grid.

본 논문에서는 퍼지결정법을 적용한 유도전동기의 최적설계 방법을 제시하였다. 이 방법은 설계자의 경험, 관점, 판단을 반영할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 다목적 최적설계에 쉽게 적용가능하다. 특성 해석방법은 등가 자기회로법이며, 설계방법은 기존 설계법 중의 하나인 D$^{2}$L 법에 퍼지 결정법과 최적화 루틴을 결합하였다. 사용한 최적화 알고리즘은 확률론적 최적화기법인 (1+1) Evolution Strategy(ES)를 이용하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 유도전동기의 무게최소화와 동시에 주요 동작점에서의 효율, 역률을 최대화 설계하는 다중목적 최적설계에 적용되었다.
