본 논문에서는 아이소-지오메트릭 해석법을 이용하여 고주파수를 가지는 파워흐름 문제에 대하여 연속체 기반 형상 최적 설계를 수행하였다. 아이소-지오메트릭 기법을 형상 최적설계에 적용하면, CAD 기하 모델링에서 쓰이던 NURBS 기저 함수가 직접 쓸 수 있기에 정확한 기하학 정보가 수치계산에서 고려되고, 이에 따라 형상 최적설계 관점에서 볼 때, 전통적인 유한요소법에 비해 향상되고 부드러운 설계 섭동량을 가지는 설계 매개화가 가능하게 된다. 즉, 정확한 기하 모델이 응답 해석과 설계민감도 해석에 쓰이게 되고, 이에 따라 설계영역 전체에서 법선 벡터와 곡률이 연속적으로 되게 된다. 결과적으로 정밀한 민감도 해석이 가능하게 된다. 몇 가지 수치예제를 통하여 개발된 아이소-지오메트릭 설계민감도가 유한차분 설계민감도와 비교하여 정확성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 형상 최적설계 문제를 통해서 본 방법론을 적용하여 검증하였다.

A multi-point aerodynamic shape optimization technique has been developed for helicopter rotor blades in hover based on a continuous adjoint method on unstructured meshes. The Euler flow solver and the continuous adjoint sensitivity analysis were formulated on the rotating frame of reference. The 'objective function and the sensitivity were obtained as a weighted sum of the values at each design point. The blade section contour was modified by using the Hicks-Henne shape functions. The mesh movement due to the blade geometry change was achieved by using a spring analogy. In order to handle the repeated evaluation of the design cycle efficiently, the flow and adjoint solvers were parallelized based on a domain decomposition strategy. A solution-adaptive mesh refinement technique was adopted for the accurate capturing of the wake. Applications were made to the aerodynamic shape optimization of the Caradonna-Tung rotor blades and the UH-60 rotor blades in hover.

In order to minimize unstable flow occurred at a multiblade fan/scroll system, optimal angle and shape of cut-off was determined by using two-dimensional turbulent fluid field analyses and neural network. The results of CFD analyses were used for learning as data of input and output of neural network. After learning neural network optimization process was accomplished for design variables, the angle and the shape of cut-off, in the design domain. As a result of optimization, the optimal angle and shape were obtained as 71 and 0.092 times the outer diameter of impeller, respectively, which are very similar values to previous studies. Finally, it was verified that the fluid field is very stable for optimal angle and shape of cut-off by two-dimensional CFD analysis.

In this paper, optimum shape design of permanent magnet in slotted type Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor(PMLSM) is progressed for minimization of detent force owing to structure of slot-teeth and thrust ripple by harmonic magnetic flux of permanent magnet. In order to reduce remodeling time as changing design parameter for Permanent Magnet shape optimization, the moving model node technique was applied. The characteristics of thrust and detent force computed by finite element analysis are acquired equal effect both skewed basic model and optimum model which is optimization of permanent magnet shape. In addition to, thrust per unit volume is improved 4.l2[%] in optimum model.

Reliability Based Design Optimization(RBDO) is one of the optimization methods that minimize the product failure due to small changes of operating conditions or process errors. It searches the optimum that satisfies the safety margin of each constraint, and it gives stable and reliable designs. However, RBDO requires many times oj computational efforts compared with the conventional deterministic optimization(DO) to evaluate the probability of failure about each constraint, therefore it is hard to apply directly to large-scaled problems such as a flexible wing shape design optimization. For the efficient reliability analysis, the approximate reliability analysis method with the two-point approximation(TPA) is proposed In this study, the lift-to-drag ratio maximization designs are performed with 3-dimensional Navier-Stokes analysis and NASTRAN structural analysis, and the optimization results about the deterministic, FORM and SORM are compared.

This work presents microchannel heat sink shape optimization procedure using Kriging method. Design variables relating to microchannel width, depth and fin width are selected, and thermal resistance has been taken as objective function. Design points are selected through a three-level fractional factorial design of sampling method. Navier-Stokes and energy equations for laminar flow and conjugate heat transfer are solved at these design points using a finite volume solver. Solutions are carefully validated with experimental results. Using the numerically evaluated objective function, a surrogate model (Kriging) is constructed and optimum point is searched by sequential quadratic programming. The process of shape optimization greatly improves the thermal performance of microchannel heat sink under constant pumping power.

Shape optimization of an upper plenum of PBMR type gas cooled nuclear reactor has been performed by using three-dimensional Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) analysis and surrogate modeling technique. The objective function is defined as a linear combination of uniformity of flow distribution in the core and pressure drop in the upper plenum and the core. The ratio of thickness of slot to diameter of rising channels, ratio of height of upper plenum to diameter of rising channels, and ratio of eight of the slot at inlet to outlet, are used as design variables for optimization. Design points are selected through Latin-hypercube sampling. The optimal point is determined through surrogate-based optimization method which uses 3-D RANS analyses at design points. The results show that the optimum shape represent remarkably improved performance in flow uniformity and friction loss than the reference shape.

대공간 구조물은 형태에 따라 구조물의 설계와 시공에 미치는 영향이 크기 때문에 초기 단계에서의 최적형태 설계가 중요하다. 그러나 기존의 대공간 구조물의 최적형태 설계는 구조엔지니어의 직관이나 경험을 바탕으로 수행되어 왔다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 대공간 트러스 구조물의 체계적인 최적형태 설계를 위해 위상최적화 기법과 Cellular Automata 모델을 이용한 통합프로세서를 제안하고자 한다. 먼저 위상최적화 기법을 이용하여 구조물의 초기 최적형상을 찾고, 다음 단계로 Cellular Automata 규칙에 의해 생성된 구조패턴을 적용하여 대공간 트러스 구조형태를 생성한다. 최종적으로 구조해석을 실시하고 크기최적화를 적용함으로써 설계조건을 만족하는 최적형태를 제안하고자 한다.
