In this study, computer program for the optimum design of two continuous box culvert was developed. It was shown that even though the starting points and optimization method are different, the objective function and optimum design variables converge to a value within a close range respectively, and consequently the optimum design program developed in this study is reliable and robust. MMFD is the most efficient one from the viewpoint of convergency and computing time.

본 연구에서는 효율적인 형상최적화를 위해 다단계 분할기법으로 트러스 구조물의 형상 최적화를 시도하였다. 1단계에서는 단면적을 설계변수로 하여 중량, 또는 체적을 목적함수로 하고 다하중 재하조건 하의 거동제약조건과 부가적인 제약조건을 고려하여 비선형 최적화 문제를 형성한다. 이 비선형 계획문제를 축차 선형계획 문제로 변환하여 개선된 허용방향법으로 최적화하였다. 이때 필요한 도함수는 다른 연구와 달리 효율적이라고 알려진 거동공간법으로 구하였고, 최적화 과정 중 이를 이용하여 부재력를 근사화 함으로써 계산의 효율성을 높였다. 2단계에서는 형상 설계변수만을 고려한 무제약 최적화 문제로 형성한 후 일방향 탐사기법을 적용하여 형상을 최적화하였다. 이와 같이 구성된 본 연구의 알고리즘을 몇 가지 트러스 구조물에 적용하여 본 알고리즘의 적용성과 효율성 및 타당성을 증명하였다.

익형에 대한 공력 최적설계 프로그램을 개발하였으며, 점성 유동장에 대한 보다 정확한 정보를 설계에 반영하기 위하여 나비어-스톡스 방정식을 사용하였다. 최적설계 방법으로는 민감도 해석을 위하여 수정유용방향탐색방법(Modified Method of Feasible Directions, MMFD)을 사용하였으며 이동거리 계산을 위하여 다항식 보간법을 사용하였다. 또한 설계시간을 단축하기 위하여 MPI를 사용하여 병렬화하였다. 전체 유동장을 8개의 영역으로 분할하였으며 분할된 영역은 지정된 프로세서에 할당하여 계산을 수행하였다. 민감도 계산을 위하여 각 프로세서에 할당하여 계산을 수행하였다. 민감도 계산을 위하여 각 프로세서에 각 탐색방향을 할당하여 민감도를 병렬계산하였다. 본 연구의 수행 결과 양력은 허용한도 내의 일정한 값을 유지하는 가운데 항력이 감소된 최적화된 익형의 형상을 설계할 수 있었다.

Since the previous cut-and-try design algorithm require much cost and time, it has recently been concerned the automatic design technique using the CFD and optimum design algorithm. In this study, the Navier-Stokes equations is solved to consider the more detail viscous flow informations of cascade interaction and O-H multiblock grid system is generated to impose an accurate boundary condition. The cubic-spline interpolation is applied to handle a relative motion of a rotor to the stator. To validate present procedure, the time averaged aerodynamic loads are compared with experiment and good agreement obtained. Once the N-S equations have been solved, the computed aerodynamic loads may be used to computed the sensitivities of the aerodynamic objective function. The Modified Method of feasible Direction(MMFD) is usef to compute the

In this study, the algorithm for the optimum design of cantilever retaining wall was de veloped and solved using Modified Method of Feasible Directions(MMFD), Sequential Linear Programming(SLP) and Sequential Quadratic Programming(SQP). The algorithm was applied to the optimum design of 3-different height cantilever re tairing walls. It was shown that even though the starting points and optimization strategies are dif- ferent, the objective function and optimum design variables converge to within a close range, and consequently the reliability and efficiency of the underlying optimum design algorithm can be verified. It is expected that the optimum design algorithm developed in this study can be utilized efficiently for the optimum design of any scale cantilever retaining wall. Using optimum design method, cantilever retaining wall will be designed more economi- cally and reasonably than using traditional design method.

굴착단계별 지반거동을 예측하기 위해 아무리 정교한 수치해석기법을 적용하여도 수치해석 모델링, 토질정수, 현장 및 시공조건 등과 관련한 불확실성으로 인해 실제 시공시 관측되는 거동은 설계단계의 수치해석을 통한 예측과 상당히 다른 결과를 나타낸다. 따라서, 굴착과정에서 발생되는 지반거동을 파악하기 위해서 항상 현장계측을 통한 관리가 이루어져야 한다. 하지만 지금까지 수행된 계측관리는 현단계 안정성만을 판단하는 절대치 관리기법에 한정되어 있어 다음 굴착단계에 대한 지반거동의 예측이 어려운 실정이다. 이러한 측면에서 본 연구는 현단계 안정성 여부를 판단하는 절대치 관리기법 이외에 역해석을 통해 다음 굴착단계의 지반거동을 예측하고 안정성을 판단하는 예측관리기법을 도입한 지반굴착 흙막이공의 정보화시공 종합관리 시스템인 TOMAS-EXCAV를 개발하였다. TOMAS-EXCAV는 SQP-MMFD의 최적화기법을 적용한 역해석 프로그램을 정해석 프로그램과 연계하여 굴착 또는 시공 초기단계에 실시된 계측결과를 토대로 주요 설계변수의 최적화를 수행함으로써 흙막이구조물 해석시 모든 불확실성을 포괄적으로 반영한다. 본 연구에서는 이에 대한 검증을 위해 흙막이 현장 2개소를 선정하여 역해석을 중심으로 TOMAS-EXCAV의 적용성을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we develop a shape design optimization method for thermo-elastoplasticity problems that is applicable to the welding or thermal deformation problems of ship structures. Shell elements and a programming language APDL in a commercial finite element analysis code, ANSYS, are employed in the shape optimization. The point of developed method is to determine the design parameters such that the deformed shape after welding fits very well to a desired design. The geometric parameters of surfaces are selected as the design parameters. The modified method of feasible direction (MMFD) and finite difference sensitivity are used for the optimization algorithm. Two numerical examples demonstrate that the developed shape design method is applicable to existing hull structures and effective for the structural design of ships.

For prediction of ground movement per the excavation step, observational results of ground movement during the construction was very different with prediction during the analysis of design. step because of the uncertainty of the numerical analysis modelling, the soil parameter, and the condition of a construction field, etc. however accuratly numerical analysis method was applied. Therefore, the management system through the construction field measurement should be achieved for grasping the situation during the excavation. Until present, the measurement system restricted by ‘Absolute Value Management system’only analyzing the stability of present step was executed. So, it was difficult situation to expect the prediction of ground movement for the next excavation step. In this situation, it was developed that ‘The Management system TOMAS-EXCAV’ consisted of ‘Absolute value management system’ analyzing the stability of present step and ‘Prediction management system’ expecting the ground movement of next excavation step and analyzing the stability of next excavation step by‘Back Analysis’. TOMAS-EXCAV could be applied to all uncertainty of earth retaining structures analysis by connecting ‘Forward analysis program’ and ‘Back analysis program’ and optimizing the main design variables using SQP-MMFD optimization method through measurement results. The application of TOMAS-EXCAV was confirmed that verifed the three earth retaing construction field by back analysis.

Since the previous cut-and-try design algorithm requires much cost and time, the automated design technique with the CFD and optimum design algorithm has recently been concerned. In this work, the Navier-Stokes equation was solved to gain more detailed viscous flow information of cascade with rotor-stator interactions. The H-grid embedded by O-grid was generated to obtain more accurate solution by eliminating the branch cut of H-grid near airfoil surface. To handle the relative motion of the rotor to the stationary stator, the sliding multiblock method was applied and the cubic-spline interpolation was used on the block interface boundary. To validate present procedure, the time-averaged aerodynamic loads were compared with experimeatal data. A good agreement was obtained. The Modified Method of Feasible Direction (MMFD) was used to carry out the sensitivity analysis of the change of aerodynamic performance by the changes of the cascade geometry. The present optimization of the cascade gave a dramatic reduction of the drag while the lift maintains at the value within the user-specified tolerance.

Viscous-driven pumping is a very promising type in microscale applications. However, there exist a few disadvantages such as low efficiency and small volume flow rate. In the present study, a pump with tandem rotating cylinders and its optimum synthesis are proposed fur enhancing pumping performance. First, using an unstructured grid CFD method, we investigate the effects of geometrical parameters and then the performance of the pump with tandem cylinders is evaluated. Next, an optimum design synthesis tool is constructed by combining the aforementioned CFD analysis model with the mathematical optimization model, namely, Modified Method of Feasible Directions (MMFD). This technique is used to optimize the geometrical parameters of the pump, fur maximizing pumping efficiency. From the optimization results, it is believed that the present optimum synthesis is robust and has a potential fur other microfluidic device design.
