In a multi-cavity mold having a runner layout of a fish bone structure, problems of unbalanced filling between cavities occur constantly. Unbalanced charging lowers the dimensional accuracy of a molded article and causes deformation after molding. To solve this problem, the gate size connected to each cavity is adjusted using the BGV (Balanced Gate Value) equation. In this paper, in order to solve the filling imbalance problem of the runner layout mold of fish bone structure through injection molding analysis study, we compared the charging imbalance phenomenon before and after improvement after adjusting the gate size by applying BGV equation. From the results of the molding analysis, the shrinkage ratio before and after the improvement of the molded article was improved by only about 0.08%. Based on these results, it was confirmed that the charging imbalance problem was not significantly improved even when the BGV equation was applied.

This paper deals with a Direct-Input-Output Manufacturing System (DIOMS) which has a number of machine centers placed along a built-in automated storage/retrieval system (AS/RS). During its operations, the storage/retrieval(S/R) machine picks up a pallet from the pickup/deposit port of a machine center and then moves it either to an empty rack opening of the AS/RS for temporary storage or to place it on the port of another machine center for subsequent operation. The machine layout problem in DIOMS is formulated as an integer mathematical programming whose objective is to minimize the total expected distance of the loaded S/R machine during a production period. Recognizing the limit of the exact solution procedure(the Branch and Bound method), two improvement-type heuristics are proposed. One is based on the simulated annealing method and the other the pairwise interchange method. The validity of the heuristics is examined with example problems.

A circuit design technique to reduce the propagation time is proposed for the analog parallel processing-based Viterbi decoder. The analog Viterbi decoder implements the function of the conventional digital Viterbi decoder utilizing the analog parallel processing circuit technology. The decoder is for the PR(1.2,2.1) signal of DVD. The benefits are low power consumption and less silicon occupation. In this paper, a propagation time reduction technique is proposed by minimizing the parasitic capacitance components in the layout design of the analog Viterbi decoder. The propagation time reduction effect of the proposed technique has been shown via HSPICE simulation.

In this study we conduct the optimal spot-weld layout design of vehicle body structure considering dynamic stiffness and side impact. We conduct both linear static analysis and nonlinear analysis with a baseline model to verify the process. 13 design variables will be selected for the effect analysis. Then, topology optimization is conducted to each selected design variable. The design constraints are formulated to improve the dynamic stiffness and side impact performance. Objective function is to set the density of weld component. Optimal spot-weld layout design are compared with the baseline model to show the improvement.

A symbolic layout generator, called Flexible Module Generator (FMG), has been developed for transgorming a given CMOS circuit netlist into an optimized symbolic layout. Contrary to other conventional module generators which place transistors either in horizontal or in vertical direction, FMG places transittors in any hence can multiples of 90$^{\circ}$. This flexible layout style can maximize the diffusion sharing and hence can reduce the wire-length for both of area minimization and performance improvement. In FMG, transistors are initially randomly placed and then selected transistors are iteratively replaced using an optimization technique based on simulated evolution. Whenever a transistor is replaced, the affected nets are rerouted. Constraints on the shape, aspect ratio, and critical path delays are considered during the optimization process. Routing is performed by using a modified maze router on polysilicon, metal 1, and metal 2 interconnection layers. additional routing grids are added, if necessary, for complete routing. Unused rows or columns are removed after routing for area minimization. Experimental reasults show that FMG synthesizes satisfactory layouts.

Subsidiary welfare facilities in an apartment complex are one of the most important factors for consumers when they buy an apartment due to an increase of consumers' consciousness level, increase of leisure time, and increase of cultural life. This study aims to analyze layout types and characteristics of subsidiary welfare facilities at the apartment complexes in the second phase new towns, investigate the current situation and find out the improvement direction. For this purpose, this author investigated three "second phase new towns" which were designated as a new town at similar time, and selected a total of 15 apartment complexes by selecting 5 complexes in each of the three new towns. Literature survey, case visit, photo shoot, user observation survey were used as study methods. The results of the study are as follows. First, it was found that a mixed type was the most common type of plane layout types in the subsidiary welfare facilities. This type improves accessibility and equity of the residents as the facilities are appropriately placed based on the functions and the user characteristics. Second, it can be considered that a distributed type for senior citizen centers and daycare centers may give independence to specific users, but it may give a sense of alienation to the elderly. Moreover, it does not have enough community so that it is necessary to make proper supplementation. Third, there were two lay out types. The first one is that the subsidiary welfare facilities are placed with step difference and the second one is that they are placed in sunken places using the underground space. Fourth, all layout types of outdoor facilities are distributed types, and it is considered that measurements for a proper balance of accessibility and equity are required.

This study is a comparative analysis of the layout of Korean textbooks in Korea and China in the 3rd and 4th grades. According to the times, textbooks are constantly changing and developing in various fields from contents to design. But a tool for learning remains was unchanged. Especially, the textbooks of elementary school are aimed at conveying basic knowledge by inducing interest of children. So the layout design is important. By combining typography, illustration, color, and margins in a well-balanced and uniform design, the contents of textbooks can be well transmitted to children. Therefore, this study has recognized the importance of layout and tried to suggest improvement by grasping the lack of Chinese textbook which is lagging behind design.

Among processes to manufacture parts from footwear materials like upper leathers, one of the most essential processes is the cutting one optimally arranging lots of parts on raw footwear materials and cutting. A new nesting strategy was proposed for the 2-dimensional part layout by using a two-stage approach, where which can be effectively used for water jet cutting. In the initial layout stage, a SOAL(Self-Organization Assisted Layout) based on the combination of FCM(Fuzzy C-Means) and SOM was adopted. In the layout improvement stage, SA(Simulated Annealing) based approach was adopted for a finer layout. The proposed approach saves much CPU time through a two-stage approach scheme, while other annealing-based algorithm so far reported fur a nesting problem are computationally expensive. The proposed nesting approach uses the stochastic process, and has a much higher possibility to obtain a global solution than the deterministic searching technique. We developed the automatic nesting software of NST(ver.1.1) software for footwear industry by implementing of these proposed algorithms. The NST software was applied by the optimized automatic arrangement algorithm to cut without the loss of leathers. if possible, after detecting damage areas. Also, NST software can consider about several features in not only natural loathers but artificial ones. Lastly, the NST software can reduce a required time to implement generation of NC code. cutting time, and waste of raw materials because the NST software automatically performs parts arrangement, cutting paths generation and finally NC code generation, which are needed much effect and time to generate them manually.
