It has been known that the underfilling technique is effective in reducing thermal and environmental stress concentration at solder joint in FC asscemblies. In this paper, the effect of thermomechanical properties of underfill such as coefficient of thermal expansion(CTE) and Young's modulus on reliability of FC assembly under thermal cycling was investigated. For parametric study for optimal design of underfill, finite element analyses(FEA) were performed for seven different CTEs and five different Young's modulus. The results show that the concentrated maximum stress decreases as Young's modulus of underfill increases and the CTE of underfill decreases.

Taguchi´s parameter design is to determine the optimal settings of design parameters of a product or a process such that the characteristics of a product exhibit small variabilities around their targer values. His analysis of the problem has focused only on a single characteristic or response. However the quality of most products is seldom defined by a characteristic, and is rather the composite of a great number of characteristics which are often interrelated and nearly always measured in a variety of units. The critical problem in dealing with multiple characteristics is how to compromise the conflict among the selected levels of the design parameters for each individual characteristic. In this paper, Methodology using SN ratio optimized by unvariate technique is proposed and a parameter design procedure to achieve the optimal compromise among several different response variables is developed. One existing case study is solved by the proposed method and the results are compared with ones by the sum of SN ratios, the expected weighted loss, the desirability functions, and EXTOPSIS model.

In this study, we measured upper right, lower right, upper left region to find the optimal region which represent liver function. We found that the upper right region is optimal because of high accuracy and low standard deviation. For normal subjects all the calculated HEFs were greater than 100% and all those of abnormal ones were less than 80%. Thus HEF can be assumed to discriminate abnormal livers from normal ones. It was found that the patients with surgical operation would survive if both the pre-and the post-operative HEFs are greater than 50%. Therefore HEF method can be a good estimator for surgeon to determine the surgical operation and to evaluate remaining hepatic function after surgery as well as it is reliable and simple.

In this paper, object of experiment is to study on the effect parameters to obtain optimal surface roughness in face turning. Surface roughness is significantly important to be high quality of parts produced by turning process. For this purpose, the optimization of cutting parameters for face turning operation is investigated applying the Taguchi method. An orthogonal array, signal-to-noise, and the analysis of variance are employed to evaluate effect of cutting parameters for face turning. Also confirmation tests were performed to make a comparison between the results predicted from the mentioned correlations and the theoretical results. Cutting experiment is performed without cutting fluid using coated tungsten carbide insert about workpiece of SM45C. And regression analysis technique has been used to study the effects of the cutting parameters.

We propose a consistent numerical method for elliptic interface problems with nonhomogeneous jumps. We modify the discontinuous bubble immersed finite element method (DB-IFEM) introduced in (Chang et al. 2011), by adding a consistency term to the bilinear form. We prove optimal error estimates in L² and energy like norm for this new scheme. One of the important technique in this proof is the Bramble-Hilbert type of interpolation error estimate for discontinuous functions. We believe this is a first time to deal with interpolation error estimate for discontinuous functions. Numerical examples with various interfaces are provided. We observe optimal convergence rates for all the examples, while the performance of early DB-IFEM deteriorates for some examples. Thus, the modification of the bilinear form is meaningful to enhance the performance.

This paper presents an application of a newly designed Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (AGA) to solve the Optimal Feeder Routing (OFR) problem for distribution system planning. The main objective of the OFR problem usually is to minimize the total cost that is the sum of investment costs and system operation costs. We propose a properly designed AGA, in this paper, which can handle the horizon-year expansion planning problem of power distribution network in which the location of substation candidates, the location and amount of forecasted demands are given. In the proposed AGA, we applied adaptive operators using specially designed adaptive probabilities. we also a Simplified Load Flow (SLF) technique for radial networks to improve a searching efficiency of AGA. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated with the practical 32, 69 bus test system to show favorable performance. It is also shown that the proposed method for the OFR can also be used for the network reconfiguration problem in distribution system.

This paper presents the new three-level optimal control scheme for the large scale nonlinear systems, which is based on fast walsh transform. It is well known that optimization for nonlinear systems leads to the resolution of a nonlinear two point boundary value problem which always requires a numerical iterative technique for their solution. However, Three-level costate coordination can avoid two point boundary condition in subsystem. But this method also has the defect that must solve high order differential equation in intermediate level. The proposed method makes use of fast walsh transform, therefore, is simple in computation because of solving algebra equation instead of differential equation.

In this paper, the optimal digital redesign is studied within the framework of fuzzy systems and dual-rate sampling control theory. An equivalent fast-rate discrete-time state-space model of the continuous-time system is constructed by using fuzzy inference systems. To obtain the optimal feedback gains developed in the continuous-time system, the constructed fuzzy system is converted into a continuous-time system. The developed continuous-time control law is converted into an equivalent slow-rate digital control law using the proposed digital redesign method. The digital redesign technique using a fuzzy model is employed to simulate the inverted pendulum dynamics.

Linear second-order matrix systems representing dynamics of large flexible structures are recast in a state space form. By can efficient partial decoupling technique, a few of low frequency modes are decoupled from the rest of modes, and an optimal control procedure is developed in such a way that damping is added to the selected modes without control spillover to uncontrolled modes. Since the partial decoupling requires only eigenvectors of the sected modes, the computing time can be reduced significantly in large systems. Therefore, the method of partial decoupling and control developed in this work may be applicable to vibration contorl of large flexible space structures.

A fast converging coding algorithm that adaptively selects the modes of macroblocks is introduced. For a given frame, the optimal modes are selected based on the decision curves that minimize the overall distortion at a given bit rate. The method proposed in this paper is different from the conventional ones in that it does not manipulate the quantizer to meet the target bit rate but it satisfies the target bit rate by finding optimal modes of macroblocks which result consistent visual quality. Lagrange multiplier of the unconstrained cost function is controlled to trigger decision curves to generate appropriate modes to meet bit rate and the curve is obtained by utilizing simulated annealing optimization technique. The algorithm is implemented within H.261 video codec and simulation results demonstrate superior visual quality.
