This paper describes an integrated optimization design using multilevel decomposition technique on the base of the parametric distribution and independent axiom at the stages of lower level. Based on Pareto optimum solution, the detailed parameters at the lower level can be defined into the independent axiom. The suspension design is used as the simulation example.

In recent times, multilevel inverters are given high priority in many large industrial drive applications. However, the reliability of multilevel inverters are mainly affected by the failure of power electronic switches. In this paper, open-switch and short-switch failure of multilevel inverters and its identification using a high performance diagnostic system is discussed. Experimental and simulation studies were carried out on five level cascaded H-Bridge multilevel inverter and its output voltage waveforms were analyzed at different switch fault cases and at different modulation index values. Salient frequency domain features of the output voltage signal were extracted using the discrete wavelet transform multi resolution signal decomposition technique. Real time application of the proposed fault diagnostic system was implemented through the LabVIEW software. Artificial neural network was trained offline using the Matlab software and the resultant network parameters were transferred to LabVIEW real time system. In the proposed system, it is possible to precisely identify the individual faulty switch (may be due to open-switch (or) short-switch failure) of multilevel inverters.

During the past decades, detection of gear defects remains as a major problem, especially when the gears are subject to non-stationary phenomena. The idea of this paper is to mixture a multilevel wavelet transform with a fast EMD decomposition in order to early detect gear defects. The sensitivity of a kurtosis is used as an indicator of gears defect burn. When the gear is damaged, the appearance of a crack on the gear tooth disrupts the signal. This is due to the presence of periodic pulses. Nevertheless, the existence of background noise induced by the random excitation can have an impact on the values of these temporal indicators. The denoising of these signals by multilevel wavelet transform improves the sensitivity of these indicators and increases the reliability of the investigation. Finally, a defect diagnosis result can be obtained after the fast transformation of the EMD. The proposed approach consists in applying a multi-resolution wavelet analysis with variable decomposition levels related to the severity of gear faults, then a fast EMD is used to early detect faults. The proposed mixed methods are evaluated on vibratory signals from the test bench, CETIM. The obtained results have shown the occurrence of a teeth defect on gear on the 5th and 8th day. This result agrees with the report of the appraisal made on this gear system.

This paper presents a new performance-driven multi-levelizer which transforms a two-level description into a boolean network of the multilevel structure satisfied with user's costraints, such as chip area, the number of wires and literals, maximum delay, function level, fanin, fanout, etc.. The performance of circuits is estimated by reference to the informations in cell library through the cell mapping phase, and multi-levelization of circuits is constructed by the decomposition using the kernel and factoring concepts. Here, the saving cost of a common subexpression is defined to the sum of area and delay saved, when it is substituted. The experiments with MCNC benchmarks show the efficiency of the proposed method.

Parallel execution of computational mechanics codes requires efficient mesh-partitioning techniques. These mesh-partitioning techniques divide the mesh into specified number of submeshes of approximately the same size and at the same time, minimise the interface nodes of the submeshes. This paper describes a new mesh partitioning technique, employing Genetic Algorithms. The proposed algorithm operates on the deduced graph (dual or nodal graph) of the given finite element mesh rather than directly on the mesh itself. The algorithm works by first constructing a coarse graph approximation using an automatic graph coarsening method. The coarse graph is partitioned and the results are interpolated onto the original graph to initialise an optimisation of the graph partition problem. In practice, hierarchy of (usually more than two) graphs are used to obtain the final graph partition. The proposed partitioning algorithm is applied to graphs derived from unstructured finite element meshes describing practical engineering problems and also several example graphs related to finite element meshes given in the literature. The test results indicate that the proposed GA based graph partitioning algorithm generates high quality partitions and are superior to spectral and multilevel graph partitioning algorithms.

A method for decoupling reliability based design optimization problem into a set of deterministic optimization and performing a reliability analysis is described. The inner reliability analysis and the outer optimization are performed separately in a sequential manner. Since the outer optimizer must perform a large number of iterations to find the optimized shape and size of structure, the computational cost is very high. Therefore, during the course of this research, new multilevel reliability optimization methods are developed that divide the design domain into two sub-spaces to be employed in an iterative procedure: one of the shape design variables, and the other of the size design variables. In each iteration, the probability constraints are converted into equivalent deterministic constraints using reliability analysis and then implemented in the deterministic optimization problem. The framework is first tested on a short column with cross-sectional properties as design variables, the applied loads and the yield stress as random variables. In addition, two cases of curvilinearly stiffened panels subjected to uniform shear and compression in-plane loads, and two cases of curvilinearly stiffened panels subjected to shear and compression loads that vary in linear and quadratic manner are presented.

The paper presents functional modelling and its application for diagnosis in nuclear power plants. Functional modelling is defined and its relevance for coping with the complexity of diagnosis in large scale systems like nuclear plants is explained. The diagnosis task is analyzed and it is demonstrated that the levels of abstraction in models for diagnosis must reflect plant knowledge about goals and functions which is represented in functional modelling. Multilevel flow modelling (MFM), which is a method for functional modelling, is introduced briefly and illustrated with a cooling system example. The use of MFM for reasoning about causes and consequences is explained in detail and demonstrated using the reasoning tool, the MFMSuite. MFM applications in nuclear power systems are described by two examples: a PWR; and an FBR reactor. The PWR example show how MFM can be used to model and reason about operating modes. The FBR example illustrates how the modelling development effort can be managed by proper strategies including decomposition and reuse.

철근 콘크리트 뼈대구조는 설계변수가 많고, 목적함수의 제약조건이 복잡하여 주로 반복적인 재해석에 의하여 최적해에 접근하는 방법이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다단계분할(multilevel decomposition)에 의하여 최적화 문제를 형성하여 재해석과정을 줄이고 효과적으로 설계변수를 취할 수 있도록 하였다. 최적화의 단계는 첫째 단계에서 비선형거동에 의한 재분배모멘트의 설계공간을 계산하여 설계모멘트에 대한 제약조건식을 형성하고, 둘째 단계에서는 재분배 모멘트를 최적화하였으며, 셋째 단계에서는 설계단면을 최적화하였다. 이때 재분배 모멘트의 최적화에 따른 첫째 단계의 모멘트의 설계공간의 변화는 부재력 변화량 추정(force approximation technique)에 의하여 수정하도록 하며, 변수를 단계별로 줄여 수렴을 가속화시킬 수 있도록 하였다. 최적화 문제의 목적함수로는 경비함수를 취하였으며 영국 CP110의 한계상태설계법을 이용하여 부재의 응력제약조건식을 유도하고, 설계예를 통하여 본 연구의 타당성과 효율성을 구명하였다.

본 논문은 다단계 불법유통 추적을 위하여 배포단계 마다 포렌식마크를 삽입하고 불법 유통시 삽입된 포렌식마크를 검출하여 유통경로 추적이 가능하도록 하는 방식을 제안한다. 단계마다 저작권 및 사용자 정보를 포함한 포렌식마크를 삽입해야 하므로 대용량의 정보 삽입이 필요하고, 또 단계마다 삽입된 정보들 사이에 신호간섭이 발생하지 않도록 하여야 정확한 검출이 가능하다. 제안방식은 포렌식마크로부터 디지털 홀로그램을 생성하여 DWT-SVD 도메인에 삽입하는 방식으로 다단계 불법유통 추적이 가능하도록 구성하였다. 대용량 정보 삽입을 구현하기 위하여 포렌식마크로부터 비축홀로그램(Off-axis Hologram)을 생성하고 단계별 유통추적이 가능하도록 홀로그램을 DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform)도메인의 HL, LH, HH band에 삽입하여 신호간섭을 줄였다. 또 SVD(Singular Value Decomposition)를 홀로그램이 삽입된 신호에 적용하여 단계별 검출성능 및 안전성을 향상시켰다. 실험결과 각 단계별로 저작권 정보 및 사용자 정보로 활용이 가능한 128bit의 포렌식마크 삽입이 가능하여 3단계 배포에 총 384bit를 삽입하고 단계별로 정확한 검출이 이루어졌으며 JPEG압축에도 강인한 것으로 나타났다.
