The viscoelastic layer material is widely used to control the noise and vibration characteristics of the panel structure. This paper describes the design technology of the effective vibration damping treatment using the concept of the equivalent parameter of viscoelastic layer materials. Applying the equivalent parameter concepts based on theories of shell, it is possible to simulate the finite element analysis of damping layer panel treatments on the vibration characteristics of the structure. And it is achieved the reduced computational cost and the optimal design of topological distribution for the reduction of vibration effect.

Optimization was considered from three perspectives ; minimum grain loss, minimum damaged grain loss, and minimum power consumption. Factors affecting combine performance were classified as control , adjustable , and environmental. Control and adjustable factors were optimized by the parameter design developed by Tajuchi. Environmental factors were used as input for optimization Optimum range for control and adjustable factors are presented. Parameter design was adequate to obtain the optimum levels of control factors and optimum range of adjustable factors.

This paper describes the program of optimally choosing parameter in designing inductor, which applied by fuzzy theory, and verifies the reliability of program to use in design of power supply of electronic machine and information communication. It is available to find optimal value of complex and various parameter, such as core, winding, winding number, and air-gap, etc., needed on designing inductor. We expects to minimize time and cost of inductor design.

This paper considers the problem of the optimal input design for parameter estimtion in the ARMAX model in which the system and noise transfer function have the common denominator polynomial. Deriving the information matrix, in detail, for the assumed model structure and using the autocorrelation functin of the filtered input as design variables, it is shown that D-optimal input signal can be realized as an autoregressive moving average process. Computer simulations are carried out to show the standard-deviation reduction in the parameter estimtes using the optimal input signal.

A smart tuned mass damper (TMD) was developed to provide better control performance than a passive TMD for reduction of earthquake induced-responses. Because a passive TMD was developed decades ago, optimal design methods for structural parameters of a TMD, such as damping constant and stiffness, have been developed already. However, studies of optimal design method for structural parameters of a smart TMD were little performed to date. Therefore, parameter studies of structural properties of a smart TMD were conducted in this paper to develop optimal design method of a smart TMD under seismic excitation. A retractable-roof spatial structure was used as an example structure. Because dynamic characteristics of a retractable-roof spatial structure is changed based on opened or closed roof condition, control performance of smart TMD under off-tuning was investigated. Because mass ratio of TMD and smart TMD mainly affect control performance, variation of control performance due to mass ratio was investigated. Parameter studies of structural properties of a smart TMD was performed to find optimal damping constant and stiffness and it was compared with the results of optimal passive TMD design method. The design process developed in this study is expected to be used for preliminary design of a smart TMD for a retractable-roof spatial structure.

A form parameter method compounds the form parameters which define the hull geometric characteristics. This method can transform a hull form by changing the form parameters. The form parameter method is a hull define method without utilization of mother ships. However it is difficult to determine these form parameters. Thus, we are complemented the form parameter method using the neural networks. It is found that the form parameter method using the neural networks is efficient in hull form design by consideration of application examples.

This paepr is concerned with the design of linear parameter varying filter that ensures H$^{2}$/$H^{\infty}$ performance for a class of linear parameter varying(LPV) plants. The state space matrices of plant are assumed to be dependent affinely on a vector of time varying parameter, and each parameter is assumed to be measured in real time. Using the linear matrix inequalities(LMIs), we can solve the synthesis problem and the solution of LMIs is carried out off-line. The designed filter is parameter varying and automatically scheduled along parameter trajectories. Because the solution of LMIs is carried out off-line, computation time of filter gain is reduced. The validity of the proposed algorithm is verifed through computer simulation..

Product array approach which is used in the Taguchi parameter design has a number of advantages by considering the noise factor. However, a disadvantage of this method is that it requires an excessively large number of experiments. So combined array approach have been proposed to reduce the number of experiments. Taguchi has used the signal-to-noise ratio to find the optimum conditions in the Taguchi parameter design. In analyzing the data from the parameter design various problems tends occur by using an SN. In this paper, we propose an alternative solution for reducing the number of experiments without depending on the signal-to-noise ratio to overcome the shortcomings of the parameter design. Two examples illustrate this procedure in the two different experimental design (product array, combined array) approaches.

Design parameter of Si3N4 for engineering part could be calculated through the measurement of tensile strength with cylindrical specimen($\Phi$=7.15, ι=110mm) Relative densities of Si3N4 test specimen prepared by pressure-less sintering (PLS) and sinter/HIP were 98.5 and 99.2% respectively. Tensile strength of Si3N4 was 378 MPa for PLS and 509 MPa for sinter/HIP. By the Weibull statistic Design parameter such as Weibull modulus m=8-12 could be calcuated. Fracture strength of Si3N4 related to volume could be effectively pridicted by using Weibull theory.

This paper presents evaluation of seismic design code for AASHTO, Eurocode 8, NZS 3101, and ATC-32 and influence of parameter such as confinement steel ratio, axial force ratio, aspect ratio and longitudinal steel ratio. These seismic design code prescribe confinement steel ratio for appropriate seismic performance which is considered various design parameter. But there is doubt that these parameters are considered rationally in seismic design code. The object of this research is rational evaluation of seismic performance by analysis of existing related experimental research. According to this research, most influence parameter of seismic performance is axial force ratio.
