Most engineering products contain more than one component. Failure occurs either at the connection itself or in the component at the point of attachment of the connection in many engineering structures. The allocation and design of connections such as bolts, spot-welds, adhesive etc. usually play an important role in the structure of multi-components. Topology optimization of connection component provides more practical solution in design of multi-component connection system. In this study, a topology optimization based on density distribution approach has been applied to optimal location of fasteners such as T-shape, L-shape and multi-component connection system. From the results, it was verified that the number of iteration was reduced, and the optimal topology was obtained very similarly comparing with ESO method. Therefore, it can be concluded that the density distribution method is very suitable for topology optimization of multi-component structures.

일반적으로 신경망은 비선형성 문제를 해결하기 위해서 소프트웨어로 많이 구현되었지만, 영상처리 및 패턴인식과 같은 실시간 처리가 요구되는 응용에서는 빠른 처리가 가능한 하드웨어로 구현되고 있다. 다양한 종류의 신경망 중에서 다층 신경망(MLP: multi-layer perceptron)의 하드웨어 설계는 빠른 처리속도와 적은 면적 그리고 구현의 용이성으로 고정소수점 연산을 많이 사용하였다. 하지만 고정소수점 연산을 사용하는 하드웨어 설계는 높은 정확도의 부동소수점 연산을 많이 사용하는 소프트웨어 MLP를 쉽게 적용할 수 없는 문제점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 높은 정확도와 높은 유연성을 가지는 부동소수점 연산을 사용하면서도 은닉층 뉴런수를 주기(cycle)로 빠르게 수행하는 MLP의 완전 파이프라이닝(fully-pipelining) 설계방법을 제안한다. MLP는 주어진 문제에 의해서 자연스럽게 입력층과 출력층의 구조가 결정되지만, 은닉층 구조는 사용자에 의해서 결정된다. 그러므로 제안된 설계방법은 많은 반복수행이 요구되는 영상처리 및 패턴인식 등의 분야에서 은닉층 뉴런수를 최적화 하여 쉽게 성능 향상을 이룰 수 있다.

A multi-cavity injection mold system of protein chip for point-of-care with cavity temperature and pressure sensors was proposed in this work. In advance of manufacturing for the multi-cavity injection mold system, a single cavity injection mold system to mold protein chip was considered. Injection molding analysis for the presented system was performed to optimize the process of the molding and suggest guides to design. On the basis of the results for the single cavity system, a multi-cavity injection mold system for protein chip was analyzed, designed and manufactured with cavity temperature and pressure sensors. Results of balanced filling for protein chip models were obtained from the presented mold system.

We conducted a multi-stage optimization to secure the desired performance of a centrifugal fan for home appliance in an early stage of product development. In optimization, the static pressure at the outlet of the fan is chosen as an objective function that is to be maximized, providing the required flow rate at the operating point of the fan. The optimization procedure begins with parameters for an initial baseline fan design. The baseline design is optimized by using a commercial optimization package. Accordingly, the corresponding blade models with a set of geometrical parameters are generated. Flow through a fan is simulated by solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. A multi-stage optimization scheme is employed to determine the family of optimum values for the parameters, leading to the pressure increase at the outlet of the fan. To validate the numerically obtained optimal design parameters, we fabricated the three types of fans using rapid prototyping and assessed the performance using a fan tester. Experimental results show that the design parameters at each stage satisfy the goal of optimization. The multi-stage optimization process turned out to be a useful tool in the development of a centrifugal fan.

Both coordinated multi-point transmission and frequency reuse are effective approaches to mitigate inter-cell interference and improve network coverage. The motivation of this work is to explore the manner to effectively utilize the spectrum resource by reasonably combining cooperation and frequency reuse. The $Mat{\acute{e}}rn$ cluster process, which is appropriate to model networks with hot spots, is used to model the spatial distribution of base stations. Two cooperative mechanisms, coherent and non-coherent joint transmission (JT), are analyzed and compared. We also evaluate the effect of multiple antennas and imperfect channel state information. The simulation reveals that the proposed approach to combine cooperation and frequency reuse is effective to improve the network coverage for users located at both the center and the boundary of the cooperative region.

본 연구에서는 5MW급 수평축 풍력발전 블레이드에 대한 정격풍속과 낮은 풍속 영역을 고려하여 풍속에 대한 다점 최적설계를 수행하였다. 다점 최적설계를 수행하기 위해 블레이드 해석은 Blade Element and Momentum theory를 이용 하였으며, 설계 시 적용된 기저형상은 NREL에서 제안한 5MW급 풍력터빈 블레이드이다. 최적화 과정을 통해 얻어진 최적해의 집합에 대하여 L2 Norm을 통한 파레토분석을 하였으며, 이를 통해 기저형상의 연간 에너지생산량과 설비 이용률을 보다 향상 시킬 수 있었다.

In order to improve the efficiency of the design process and the quality of the resulting design for the application-based exclusive rolling element bearings, this study propose design methodologies by using a genetic-based combinatorial optimization. By the presence of discrete variables such as the number of rolling element (standard component) and by the engineering point of views, the design problem of the rolling element bearing can be characterized by the combinatorial optimization problem as a fully discrete optimization. A genetic algorithm is used to efficiently find a set of the optimum discrete design values from the pre-defined variable sets. To effectively deal with the design constraints and the multi-objective problem, a ranking penalty method is suggested for constructing a fitness function in the genetic-based combinatorial optimization. To evaluate the proposed design method, a robust performance analyzer of ball bearing based on quasi-static analysis is developed and the computer program is applied to some design problems, 1) maximize fatigue life, 2) maximize stiffness, 3) maximize fatigue life and stiffness, of a angular contact ball bearing. Optimum design results are demonstrate the effectiveness of the design method suggested in this study. It believed that the proposed methodologies can be effectively applied to other multi-objective discrete optimization problems.

The airfoil design optimization procedures based on the Navier-Stokes equations were developed, This procedure enables more realistic and practical transonic airfoil designs. The modified Hicks-Henne functions were used to generate the shape of airfoils. Five Hick-Henne functions were used to design upper surface of airfoil only. To enhance the ability of Hick-Henne function to generate various airfoil shape with limited number of functions, the positions of control points were adjusted through optimization procedure. The design procedure was applied to the single-point design for the drag minimization problem with lift and area constraints. The result shows the capability of the procedure to generate much realistic airfoils with very small drag-creep in the low transonic regime. This is mainly due to the viscosity effect of Navier-Stokes flow analysis. However, in the higher transonic range tile drag-creep appears. The multi-point design is shown to be an effective way to avoid the drag-creep and improve off-design performance which is very similar in the Euler design.
