목 적 : 모나코 치료계획 시스템은 몬테카를로 알고리즘을 기반으로 선량을 구현하는 대표적인 시스템이다. 모나코 치료계획 시스템에서 치료계획 완성 후, 같은 조건으로 최적화를 재 실시하여 처음과는 다른 치료계획이 만들어질 때 본 연구는 이러한 차이를 줄이는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법 : 모나코 치료계획 시스템은 세기변조방사선치료나 용적변조방사선치료를 위한 역 선량계산을 실시할 때, 두 단계를 거쳐 최적화를 실시한다. 본 연구는 우선 최적화 두 단계를 모두 실시하여 선량으로 완성된 치료계획을, 최적화 조건을 바꾸지 않고 일반적인 1단계부터 2단계까지 순차적 최적화를 실시하였다. 이때 2단계에선 펜슬 빔과 몬테카를로 알고리즘을 각각 적용하여 실험을 실시하였다. 두 가지 알고리즘의 치료계획 모두 처음 완성된 치료계획과 최적화를 재 실시한 치료계획을 비교하고 선량 측정기를 이용하여 치료선량을 평가하였다. 두 번째는 초기 완성된 치료계획에 대하여 최적화를 재 실시할 때 단계적으로 실시하여 치료계획을 완성하고 선량을 측정하였다. 결 과 : 초기 완성된 치료계획에서 동일한 조건으로 일반적인 최적화를 다시 실시한 결과는 동일하지 않았다. 치료계획시스템의 비교에서 보면 유사한 선량-용적 히스토그람은 유사한 경향을 나타내지만 최고선량, 선량 균질도 및 제한 선량 등은 최적화 조건을 만족 시키지 못하는 다른 값을 보였다. 또한 선량측정비교에서도 20%이상 다르게 나타냈다. 또한 선량 알고리즘이 달라져도 다른 측정 값이 나왔다. 반면, 단계적 최적화를 실시 할 경우에는, 초기 치료계획과 비교하였을 때 종양 및 정상 장기의 선량 분포가 5% 이하의 차이를 보였다. 결 론 : 치료계획의 최적화 과정은 수 많은 시행 착오를 수행하며 궁극적인 해를 찾아가는 과정이다. 이때 초기 치료계획의 완성만을 신뢰하며 최적화를 실시하면 또 다른 치료계획이 만들어 질 수 있다. 유사한 경향을 보이긴 하지만, 반드시 최적화 조건을 만족한다고 볼 수 없기 때문에, 최적화 과정을 재 실시할 경우에는 반드시 단계적인 최적화 과정을 통하여 선량분포를 확인하면서 순차적으로 최적화 조건을 적용해야 할 것이다.

A floating dry dock is an advanced structure that can provide a solution for dry dock space shortages. The critical point in floating dock operation is compensating the deflection caused by a heavy payload by adjusting the water level in the ballast system. An appropriate ballasting plan warrants safe and precise construction on a floating dock. Particularly, in the case of a 2D floating dock, ballasting plan evaluation is crucial due to complex deformation modes. In this paper, we developed a method to calculate the optimal ballasting plan for accurate and precise construction on a 2D floating dock. The finite element method was used for considering the flexibility of the floating dock as well as the construction blocks. Through a gradient-based optimization algorithm, the optimal ballasting plan for the given load condition was calculated in semi-real time (5 min). The present method was successfully used for the actual construction of an offshore structure on the 2D floating dock.

The purpose of the high-speed railway construction is to better satisfy passenger travel demands. Accordingly, the design of the train working plan must also take a full account of the interests of passengers. Aiming at problems, such as the complex transport organization and different speed trains coexisting, combined with the existing research on the train working plan optimization model, the multiobjective bi-level programming model of the high-speed railway passenger train working plan was established. This model considers the interests of passengers as the center and also takes into account the interests of railway transport enterprises. Specifically, passenger travel cost and travel time minimizations are both considered as the objectives of upper-level programming, whereas railway enterprise profit maximization is regarded as the objective of the lower-level programming. The model solution algorithm based on genetic algorithm was proposed. Through an example analysis, the feasibility and rationality of the model and algorithm were proved.

도로의 구조 시설기준에 관한 규칙과 국도의 노선계획 설계지침에 준하여 실행되는 현행 노선선정방법과, 컴퓨터 발전과 함께 국내외에서 연구되고 있는 선형최적화 모형식으로 사례연구 구간의 도로 노선을 선정하여 노선 특성을 비교 분석해본 결과, 현행 노선선정방법은 단계별, 구간별로 순차적인 노선선정이 이루어지는 국지적 최적을 추구하나, 선형 최적화 모형식 선정방법은 모든 설계요소가 동시에 고려된 체계최적(System Optimal)의 노선탐색 능력이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 선형최적화 모형에서 기존 설계공종별 실제공사비로 비용함수를 보정하여 노선을 선정한 결과 현실에 부합되게 설계되었으며, 경제성이 높은(B/C=1.66) 대안 노선이 탐색되었다. 선형최적화 설계모형은 터널 종단에서 종단 경사가 변화하는 등 보완될 점이 있음에도 타당성조사와 기본설계단계에서 노선선정 도구로서 설계시간 및 비용단축, 다양한 대안 노선의 검토 등의 많은 장점을 지니고 있음이 확인되었다.

This paper proposes a method for expensive black box optimization using radial basis functions (RBFs). The proposed algorithm is a computational strategy that uses a RBF model approximating the expensive black box function to predict an optimum. First, a RBF-based approximation technique is introduced and a sampling plan for estimation of the black box function is described. Then the proposed algorithm is explained, which presents the pseudo-codes for implementation and the detailed description of each step performed in the optimization process. In addition, numerical experiments will be given to analyze the performance of the proposed algorithm, by investigating computation accuracy, number of function evaluations, and convergence history. Finally, geometric distance problem as application example will be also presented for showing the algorithm applicability to different engineering problems.

In this paper an octagon plan shaped building (study building) in presence of three square plan shaped building is subjected to boundary layer wind flow and the interference effects on the study building is investigated using Computational fluid dynamics. The variation of the pressure coefficients on different faces of the octagon building is studied both in isolated and interference conditions. Interference Factors (IF) are calculated for different faces of the study building which can be a powerful tool for designing similar plan shaped buildings in similar conditions. A metamodel of the IF, in terms of the distances among buildings is also established using Response Surface Method (RSM). This set of equations are optimized to get the optimum values of the distances where the IF is unity. An upstream Interference zone for this building setup and wind environment is established from these data. Uncertainty principle is also utilised to determine the optimum positions of the interfering buildings considering the uncertain nature of wind flow for minimum interference effect. The proposed procedure is observed to be computationally efficient in deciding optimum layout at buildings often required in city planning. The results show that the proposed RSM-based optimization approach captures the interference zone accurately with substantially less number of experiments.

Off-Site Construction is being widely adopted as an alternative to solve endemic problems in construction industry such as low productivity and efficiency. However, it is strongly recommended to examine the transportation process to be optimized because it determines the size of a modular and influences the cost of the construction. Therefore, in this study simulation model for optimization of modular construction transportation plan was developed using AnyLogic. As a result of the study, the influence of trailer transport capacity and transport time increases as the number of modular which should be transported from factory to site increases.

If the center of mass and center of stiffness or strength of a structure plan do not coincide, the structure is considered asymmetric. During an earthquake, in addition to lateral vibration, the structure experiences torsional vibration as well. Lateraltorsional coupling in asymmetric structures in the plan will increase lateral displacement at the ends of the structure plan and, as a result, uneven deformation demand in seismically resistant frames. The demand for displacement in resistant frames depends on the magnitude of transitional displacement to rotational displacement in the plan and the correlation between these two. With regard to the inability to eliminate the asymmetrical condition due to various reasons, such as architectural issues, this study has attempted to use supplemental viscous dampers to decrease the correlation between lateral and torsional acceleration or displacement in the plan. This results in an almost even demand for lateral deformation and acceleration of seismic resistant frames. On this basis, using the concept of Torsional Balance, adequate distribution of viscous dampers for the decrease of this correlation was determined by transferring the "Empirical Center of Balance" (ECB) to the geometrical center of the structure plan and thus obtaining an equal mean square value of displacement and acceleration of the plan edges. This study analyzed stiff and flexible torsional structures with one-way and two-way mass asymmetry in the Opensees software. By implementing the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, the optimum formation of dampers for controlling lateral displacement and acceleration is determined. The results indicate that with the appropriate distribution of viscous dampers, not only does the lateral displacement and acceleration of structure edges decrease but the lateral displacement or acceleration of the structure edges also become equal. It is also observed that the optimized center of viscous dampers for control of displacement and acceleration of structure depends on the amount of mass eccentricity, the ratio of uncoupled torsional-to-lateral frequency, and the amount of supplemental damping ratio. Accordingly, distributions of viscous dampers in the structure plan are presented to control the structure's torsion based on the parameters mentioned.
