Resealed Simulated Annealing (RSA) has been devised for improving the disadvantage of Simulated Annealing (SA) which require tremendous amount of computation time. RSA and SA have been for optimization of satellite structures and for comparison of results from two algorithms. As a practical application, a satellite structure is optimized by the two algorithms. Weights of satellite upper platform and propulsion module are minimized. MSC/NASTRAN is used for the static and dynamic analysis. The optimization results of the RSA are compared with results of the classical SA. The numbers of optimization iterations could be effectively reduced by the RSA.

Rescaled Simulated Annealing (RSA) has been adapted to solve combinatorial optimization problems in which the available computational resources are limited. Simulated Annealing (SA) is one of the most popular combinatorial optimization algorithms because of its convenience of use and because of the good asymptotic results of convergence to optimal solutions. However, SA is too slow to converge in many problems. RSA was introduced by extending the Metropolis procedure in SA. The extension rescales the state's energy candidate for a transition before applying the Metropolis criterion. The rescaling process accelerates convergence to the optimal solutions by reducing transitions from high energy local minima. In this paper, structural optimization examples using RSA are provided. Truss structures of which design variables are discrete or continuous are optimized with stress and displacement constraints. The optimization results by RSA are compared with the results from classical SA. The comparison shows that the numbers of optimization iterations can be effectively reduced using RSA.

수정 시뮬레이티드어닐링은 Simulated Annealing(SA)가 확률 탐색 방법을 사용하기 때문에 수렴시간이 오래 걸리는 단점를 개선한 방법이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 RSA와 SA을 트러스구조물과 인공위성구조물의 최적화에 적용하여 서로 비교하여 보았다. 최적화 예제로 10부재 트러스, 실제 응용예제로 인공위성구조물은 위성 상단 플랫폼과 추진모듈의 최적화를 수행하였다. 인공위성구조물의 최적화에서 응력과 고유진동수, 전단응력 등을 제한조건으로 고려하여 최적화를 수행하였다. 인공위성구조물의 최적화를 수행한 결과 RSA을 이용하여 다양한 인공위성 구조물의 최적화에 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 인공위성 구조물의 최적화에서 RSA가 SA보다 수렴속도가 향상되었음을 확인하였다.
