DNV crane criteria are specially designated for the vessel equipped with lifting crane to cover the risk during the crane operation. Based on the DNV crane criteria, the crane performance shall be decided. The weight control has great importance in the management of vessel's design for crane vessel. To evaluate limitation of lightship weight and the effect of design changes sufficiently, the lightship allowable VCG curve was used. The optimization process was carried out for generation of the lightship allowable VCG curve due to the difficulty coming from the characteristic of DNV crane criteria. This paper includes the introduction to the DNV Crane criteria and optimization process for evaluation in aspect of lightship weight and VCG.

The optimization in the machining process has been a long-standing goal of the manufacturing community. The optimization is composed of two main subjects;one is to select an optimum cutting condition, and the other is to detect the emergency situation and take necessary actions in real-time base. This paper proposes a reliable and practical guide system whose purpose is the optimization of cutting conditions, and the detection of tool failure in the machining process. The optimal cutting conditions are determined through the estimation of tool wear rate and the establishment of access- ible field from the measured cutting temperature and force. Tool breakage is detected by the normal force component acting on minor flank face extracted from on-line sensed feed force and radial force. In experiments, the proposed guide system has proved availability for the decision of reliable cutting conditions for the given tool-work system and the detection of tool breakage in ordinary cutting environments.

Optimization has been used in many engineering problems and must be one of the essential components during design process now. It is the process of maximizing the performance called an objective function of a system while satisfying some constraints, so finite element method is generally required in order to obtain these values during optimization. However, there are some difficulties to obtain them by means of FEM, where the changes of design variables cause the distortion and the regeneration of mesh that may result in inaccuracy and inefficiency. In order to overcome this problem, this paper proposed an alternative that the eXtended FEM introduced and developed by Ted Belytschko was applied to the optimization process because the key points of the X-FEM lie in that the discontinuity can be represented independently on the mesh by a function called in an enrichment function.

A method of optimization of process parameters in Arc Welding has been discussed in this paper. The method of investigation is based on the numerical calculation of weld bead by a finite element method and non-linear optimization technique is applied to estimated the optimization process parameters from the numerical calculation. The common package program(ANSYS 4.4A) was used to obtain the process parameters for a thin plate arc welding (TIG, CO$_{2}$). The results on some test are satisfactory and the used method of this paper is a useful guide to the optimum welding condition.

A Turbo-impeller is widely used in industries as well as in aero engines. Its design technology has been developed since the early 20th century. However, the final configuration of the impeller depends on the designers. In this study, a whole design process was introduced and an optimization method to design an impeller was studied in order to design a better impeller without influence by designers. In particular, as the Artificial Neural Network was applied to the optimization, the computational time for the optimization was equivalent to the time consumed by the gradient method and its result was guaranteed as the optimum in the whole design domain. Using this method, any impeller can be improved by selecting design variables after measuring profiles of the impeller.

As the importance of low power design is emphasized, power consumption became one of the standards that represent the performance of the system. The purpose of this study is to decide design variable that minimize power consumption for the oxygen concentrator in two bed-one compressor 8 step PSA process that has above 90% purity at 3lpm by using given constants and selected parameters. Setting selected parameters as cycle time and equalization time, optimization for PSA process in the oxygen concentrator is progressed. For this, we need to know the features and basic principals of PSA process and to deduce objective function of performance analysis. Validations for objective function and lots of experiments are needed too. By using the characteristic curve of the compressor and the pressure curve of the process for 1 cycle, objective function was set. After theoretical 2 dimensional optimized paths was obtained. And then, by experiment, theoretical optimized path was verified.

Steel nitriding is a thermo-chemical process leading to surface hardening and improvement in fatigue properties. The process is strongly influenced by many different variables such as steel composition, nitrogen potential, temperature, time, and quenching media. In the present study, the influence of such parameters affecting physic-chemical and mechanical properties of nitride steels was evaluated. The aim was to streamline the process by numerical-experimental analysis allowing defining the optimal conditions for the success of the process. Input parameters-output results correlations were calculated through the employment of a multi-objective optimization software, modeFRONTIER (Esteco). The mechanical and microstructural results belonging to the nitriding process, performed with different processing conditions for various steels, are presented. The data were employed to obtain the analytical equations describing nitriding behavior as a function of nitriding parameters and steel composition. The obtained model was validated, through control designs, and optimized by taking into account physical and processing conditions.

Design optimization is performed to calculated the draw-bead force for satisfying the design re-quirements. For an analysis tool a rigid-plastic finite element method with modified membrane element is adopted. response surface methodology is utilized for constructing the approximation surface for the optimum searching of draw bead force in sheet metal forming process. the algorithm developed is ap-plied to a design of the draw bead forces in a deep drawing process. The results show that the design of process parameters is applicable in complex metal forming analysis. It is also noted that the present algo-rithm enhances the stable optimum solution with small times of optimization iteration.

공비점이 존재하거나 상대휘발도 차이가 적은 2성분 혼합물은 단일 증류탑으로 분리하기 어렵다. 이때 혼합물에서 분리가 어려운 영역을 투과증발막을 사용하여 분리하면 효율적인 공정을 설계할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 물-유기용매 혼합물을 분리하기 위한 증류-투과증발막 혼성공정을 제시하고, 물-초산 혼합물과 물-에탄올 혼합물의 분리공정을 각각 모사하였다. 증류탑 상부 흐름이 친수성 막을 통과하여 물을 높은 순도로 분리하는 공정을 모사하였다. 실험과 문헌에서 얻은 친수성 막의 투과도를 토대로 막 모델을 만들어 막 면적을 계산하였다. 제시한 공정의 최적화를 위해, 목적함수를 연간 총 비용으로 정하고 주요 설계 변수들을 최적화 변수로 하여 최적화 문제를 구성하였다. 또한, 혼성공정의 각 최적화 변수의 변화에 따른 목적함수 값의 변화 추세를 나타내고 최적화 변수를 최적점에 가까운 값으로 쉽게 추측할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다.

복잡한 문제들의 근사해를 구하기 위하여 최근 다양한 방법들이 소개되고 있다. 이러한 방법들은 주로 금속의 서랭(Annealing)에 의해 금속분자의 에너지가 최저점에 도달하는 과정을 모의실험한 최적화 기법(Simulated Annealing), 생물의 적자생존(Survival of Fittest)과정을 이용한 최적화 기법인 유전적 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)등 물리적 현상이나 생물 ?생명에 관련된 모의를 최적화 문제에 응용한 방법들이다. 최근에 소개된 Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)는 주로 조류나 어류등의 생물의 무리가 각각의 개체가 가지고 있는 정보를 공유해가며 먹이를 찾아가는 과정을 모의한 기법이다. 하지만, 이 기법의 탐색과정이 명확하게 밝혀져 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 PSO의 탐색과정을 가시화 하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 탐색과정을 가시화 하는 작업을 통해 그 탐색 능력을 시각적으로 파악하는 것이 가능하며 기법에 관한 이해를 돕고 교육적 효과도 기대 가능하다.
