In this study, we examined the effects of guardians' service quality perception(G-SQP) on patients' service quality perception(P-SQP) leading to patients' behavioral intention(P-BI) and the effects of G-SQP on guardians' behavioral intention(G-BI). To investigate the causalities of the variables, we collected national wide samples of 144 hospitals, 1456 patients and 1455 guardians of the patients and analyzed 1146 guardian-patient coupled cases refined with prerequisites such as missing value, outliers, normality and covariance conditions. Followed were contributions of the present study. First, G-SQP was a predictor of P-SQP. Second, in the first contribution statement, there was no statistically significant difference between inpatient and outpatient group. Third, proven was that G-SQP was a predictor of G-BI. Fourth, verified was that P-SQP was a predictor of P-BI. Fifth, G-SQP was a predictor of P-SQP being led to P-BI that meant P-SQP had a mediating role between G-SQP and P-BI. Since the guardians' perception affected patients' buying decision, the present study implied service managers of hospital settings should pay attention to guardians' perception of service quality as well as patients'. With such strategy, hospitals could improve financial performance in long-term.

무인항공기의 비행제어법칙 설계를 위하여 자동 제어기 이득 결정 프로그램을 개발하였다. 제어기 이득 결정 문제를 최적화 문제로 정식화 하고, 최적화 문제의 최적해로부터 제어기 이득을 결정하였다. 최적화 문제의 해를 계산하기 위해 진화연산기법의 하나인 PSO 알고리듬과 비선형 프로그래밍의 하나인 SQP 알고리듬을 연결하여 사용하였다. 이 방법을 통하여 최적해 계산 시간을 PSO 방법에 비하여 1/5로 감소시켰으며, 보다 정확한 최적해를 계산할 수 있었다.

In this paper, the comparison of the first order approximation schemes such as SLP (sequential linear programming), CONLIN(convex linearization), MMA(method of moving asymptotes) and the second order approximation scheme, SQP(sequential quadratic programming) was accomplished for optimization of and nonlinear structures. It was found that MMA and SQP(sequential quadratic programming) was accomplished for optimization of and nonlinear structures. It was found that MMA and SQP are the most efficient methods for optimization. But the number of function call of SQP is much more than that of MMA. Therefore, when it is considered with the expense of computation, MMA is more efficient than SQP. In order to examine the efficiency of MMA for complex optimization problem, it was applied to the helicopter tail boom considering column buckling and local wall buckling constraints. It is concluded that MMA can be a very efficient approximation scheme from simple problems to complex problems.

In this paper, three-dimensional optimal evasive maneuver patterns for air-to-surface attack missiles against proportionally navigated anti-air defense missiles were investigated. An interception error of the defense missile is produced by an evasive maneuver of the attack missile. It is assumed that the defense missiles are continuously launched during the flight of attack missile. The performance index to be minimized is then defined as the negative square integral of the interception errors. The direct parameter optimization technique based on SQP and a co-evolution method based on the augmented Lagrangian formulation are adopted to get the attack missile's optimal evasive maneuver patterns. The overall shape of the resultant optimal evasive maneuver is represented as a deformed barrel-roll.

본 연구에서는 최적화기법과 전산유체역학의 기술을 이용하여 저항의 관점에서 최적의 형상을 가지는 선형을 개발하는 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 최적화기법으로는 SQP(sequential quadratic programming)을 사용하였으며, 목적함수인 저항을 구하기 위하여 먼저 조파저항은 비선형 자유수면 경계조건을 고려한 선체주위 포텐셜유동을 계산할 수 있는 수치해석기법인 상 방향 패널이동법을 사용하였고, 선체에 미치는 전 저항을 구하기 위하여 ITTC 1957년 모형선-실선상관곡선을 이용하였다. 선형최적화 과정 중의 선체의 변경이나 계산 격자의 생성은 NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline)기법을 사용하여 구현하였다. 이와 같은 방법을 사용하여 개발된 선형최적화 기법의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 선형이 비교적 잘 알려진 건형인 Wigley선형과 Series 60(CB=0.6)선형에 대하여 설계속도 Fn=0.316에서 선형최적화를 위한 수치해석을 수행하고 그 결과를 초기선형과 서로 비교하였다.

In this paper, the development of a new optimization software for finite element model updating of engineering structures titled as FemUP is described. The program is used for computational FEM model updating of structures depending on modal testing results. This paper deals with the FE model updating procedure carried out in FemUP. The theoretical exposition on FE model updating and optimization techniques is presented. The related issues including the objective function, constraint function, different residuals and possible parameters for FE model updating are investigated. The issues of updating process adopted in FemUP are discussed. The ideas of optimization to be used in FE model updating application are explained. The algorithm of Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) is explored which will be used to solve the optimization problem. The possibilities of the program are demonstrated with a three dimensional steel frame model. As a result of this study, it can be said that SQP algorithm is very effective in model updating procedure.

Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) has been one of the most important methods for solving nonlinear constrained optimization problems. Recently, filter method, proposed by Fletcher and Leyffer, has been extensively applied for its promising numerical results. In this paper, we present and study an active set SQP-filter algorithm for inequality constrained optimization. The active set technique reduces the size of quadratic programming (QP) subproblem. While by the filter method, there is no penalty parameter estimate. Moreover, Maratos effect can be overcome by filter technique. Global convergence property of the proposed algorithm are established under suitable conditions. Some numerical results are reported in this paper.

AVR parameter tuning for voltage control of generators has generally been done with the off-line open-circuit model of the synchronous generator. When the generator is connected on-line and operating with load the AVR operates in an entirely different environment from the open-circuit conditions. This paper describes a new method for AVR parameter tuning for on line conditions using SQP(Sequential Quadratic Programming) meshed with frequency response characteristics of linearized on-line system model. As the proposed method uses the un - line system model the tuned parameter sets show more optimal behavior in the on-line operating conditions. furthermore, as this method considers the performance indices that are needed for stable operation as constraints, AVR parameter sets that are tuned by this method could guarantee the stable performance, too.
