  • 상수도관망은 대표적인 사회기반시설로 수원에서 수용가에게 물을 공급하는 과정에서 병원성 미생물을 소독하기 위해 염소를 주입한다. 안전한 물의 공급을 위해 잔류염소 농도 기준(0.1-4.0 mg/L)을 유지하도록 규정하고 있으나, 사용자의 사용 패턴, 수령, 상수도관망의 형식 및 특징은 수리학적(i.e., 절점의 압력, 관로의 유속) 및 수질적(i.e., 잔류염소 농도) 특징에 영향을 미친다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 Multi-objective Harmony Search (MOHS)를 사용하여 수질-수리 인자를 고려한 상수도관망 최적 설계 기법을 개발하였다. 설계인자로는 설계비용과 시스템 탄력성을 고려하였으며, 절점의 압력과 잔류염소 농도를 제약조건으로 적용하였다. 도출된 최적설계안은 상수도관망의 형식 및 특징에 따라 분석하였다. 이러한 최적설계안은 경제적인 측면과 수질 측면의 안전성을 충족할 수 있으며, 사용자의 사용성을 증가시킬 수 있다.

  • Given the increased interest in enhancing structural sustainability, the current study sought to apply multiobjective optimization to a footbridge with a steel-concrete composite I-girder structure. It was considered as objectives minimizing the cost for building the structure, the environmental impact assessed by CO2 emissions, and the vertical accelerations created by human-induced vibrations, with the goal of ensuring pedestrian comfort. Spans ranging from 15 to 25 meters were investigated. The resistance of the slab's concrete, the thickness of the slab, the dimensions of the welded steel I-profile, and the composite beam interaction degree were all evaluated as design variables. The optimization problem was handled using the Multiobjective Harmony Search (MOHS) metaheuristic algorithm. The optimization results were used to generate a Pareto front for each span, allowing us to assess the correlations between different objectives. By evaluating the values of design variables in relation to different levels of pedestrian comfort, it was identified optimal values that can be employed as a starting point in predimensioning of the type of structure analyzed. Based on the findings analysis, it is possible to highlight the relationship between the structure's cost and CO2 emission objectives, indicating that cost-effective solutions are also environmentally efficient. Pedestrian comfort improvement is especially feasible in smaller spans and from a medium to a maximum level of comfort, but it becomes expensive for larger spans or for increasing comfort from minimum to medium level.
