Borresen의 1.5군 소격 확산이론에 의거하여 2군 중성자 속에 대한 adjoint 함수를 근사적으로 계산할 수 있는 한가지 간단한 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방법에서는 열 중성자 속에 대한adjoint 함수의 누설항을 1.5군 이론의 원리에 입각하여 기하학적 buckling에 의해 근사적으로 기술하게 되는데 이때 그 기하학적 buckling은 속중성자속의 adjoint 함수로부터 구하게 된다. 한편 제안된 계산 방법의 정확도를 알기 위해 adjoint함수 계산에 대한 KIDD 전산코드의 계산결과와 제안된 방법의 계산결과를 비교하였으며 이로부터 제안된 방법이 정확도면에서 만족스런 adjoint함수를 예측 할 수 있다는 것을 보였다. 뿐만 아니라 이 방법은 섭동 이론과 관련하여 반응도 평가에 유용하게 이용될 수 있다는 것도 보였다.

In the 2D/1D method, a global adjoint CMFD based on the generalized equivalence theory is built to synthesize the 2D radial MOC adjoint and 1D axial NEM adjoint calculation and also to accelerate the iteration convergence of 3D whole-core adjoint transport calculation. Even more important, an advanced yet accurate two-level (TL) CMFD acceleration technique is proposed, in which an equivalent one-group adjoint CMFD is established to accelerate the multi-group adjoint CMFD and then to accelerate the 3D whole-core adjoint transport calculation efficiently. Based on these method, a new code is developed to perform 3D adjoint neutron flux calculation. Then a set of VERA and C5G7 benchmark problems are chosen to verify the capability of the 3D adjoint calculations and the effectiveness of TL CMFD acceleration. The numerical results demonstrate that acceptable accuracy of 2D/1D adjoint calculations and superior acceleration of TL CMFD are achievable.

There are two methods to calculate design sensitivity such as direct differentiation method and adjoint method. A sort of direct differentiation method for design sensitivity analysis costs too much when number of design variables is much larger than the number of response functions whose design sensitivity analyses are required. Therefore, an adjoint method is suggested for the case that the dimension of design variables is lager than the number of response function. An adjoint method is required to compute adjoint variables from the simultaneous linear system equation, the so-called adjoint equation, requiring only the eigenvalue and its associated eigenvectors for mode being differentiated. This method has been extended to the repeated eigenvalue problem. In this paper, we propose an adjoint method for deign sensitivity analysis of damped vibratory systems with distinct eigenvalues.

자료동화기법의 하나인 adjoint 방법은 제약조건으로서 모델의 기본방정식을 만족시키는 동시에 모델 결과와 관측자료 차이의 함수인 비용함수의 크기를 최소화시키는 모델변수를 찾아냄으로서 모델 결과를 향상시키는 기법이다. 본 연구에서는 수평방향 2차원 선형 조석모델과 adjoint 모델로 구성된 adjoint 꾸러미를 수립하고, 이를 임의로 설정한 직사각형 모델영역에 적용하였다. 조석모델로부터의 조위 모델 결과를 관측자료로 삼아 개방경계조건인 조위의 진폭을 역 추정하는 수치실험을 실시하여 자료 가중치에 대한 반응, 모델변수 초기 추정치의 중요성 및 지형 변화에 대한 반응 등을 살펴보았다 특히, adjoint꾸러미 적용시 대부분 경험적으로 설정되어왔던 가중치의 선정방법을 제시하였다.

Aerodynamic sensitivity analysis codes are developed via the hand-differentiation using a direct differentiation method and an adjoint method respectively from discrete two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Unlike previous other researches, Baldwin-Lomax algebraic turbulence model is also differentiated by hand to obtain design sensitivities with respect to design variables of interest in turbulent flows. Discrete direct sensitivity equations and adjoint equations are efficiently solved by the same time integration scheme adopted in the flow solver routine. The required memory for the adjoint sensitivity code is greatly reduced at the cost of the computational time by allowing the large banded flux jacobian matrix unassembled. Direct sensitivity code results are found to be exactly coincident with sensitivity derivatives obtained by the finite difference. Adjoint code results of a turbulent flow case show slight deviations from the exact results due to the limitation of the algebraic turbulence model in implementing the adjoint formulation. However, current adjoint sensitivity code yields much more accurate sensitivity derivatives than the adjoint code with the turbulence eddy viscosity being kept constant, which is a usual assumption for the prior researches.

Using an efficient adjoint variable method, we develop a unified design sensitivity analysis (DSA) method considering both steady state nonlinear heat conduction and geometrical nonlinear elasticity problems. Design sensitivity expressions with respect to thermal conductivity and Young's modulus are derived. Beside the temperature and displacement adjoint equations, another coupled one is defined regarding the obtained adjoint displacement field as the adjoint load in temperature field. The developed DSA method is shown to be very efficient and further extended to a topology design optimization method for the nonlinear weakly coupled thermo-elasticity problems using a density approach.

Three methods for design sensitivity analysis such as finite difference method(FDM), direct differentiation method(DDM) and adjoint variable method(AVM) are well known. FDM and DDM for design sensitivity analysis cost too much when the number of design variables is too large. An AVM is required to compute adjoint variables from the simultaneous linear system equation, the so-called adjoint equation. Because the adjoint equation is independent of the number of design variables, an AVM is efficient for when number of design variables is too large. In this study, AVM has been extended to the eigenproblem of damped systems whose eigenvlaues and eigenvectors are complex numbers. Moreover, this method is implemented into a commercial finite element analysis program by means of the semi-analytical method to show applicability of the developed method into practical structural problems. The proposed_method is compared with FDM and verified its accuracy for analytical and practical cases.

해석함수 전개 노달방법의 수학적 수한해를 AFEN코드에 약간의 수정을통하여 AFEN노달 방정식의 전치행 렬 방정식을 풀어서 계산하였다. 또한 이 수반해를 사용하여 섭동이론(정확한 섭동이론과 일차근사 섭동이론)을 이용한 계산이 반응도 변화를 예측하기 위해 두개의 잘 알려진 표준문제를 통하여 수행되었다. 본 연구에서 수반해의 계산방법은 물리적 수반해 및 정방정식의 고유치를 필요로 하지 않는다. 계산결과들은 본 논문에서 계산된 수반해가 AFEN방법의 정화한 수학적 수반해임을 보여준다.

In this paper, constraint aggregation is combined with the adjoint and multiple shooting strategies for optimal control of differential algebraic equations (DAE) systems. The approach retains the inherent parallelism of the conventional multiple shooting method, while also being much more efficient for large scale problems. Constraint aggregation is employed to reduce the number of nonlinear continuity constraints in each multiple shooting interval, and its derivatives are computed by the adjoint DAE solver DASPKADJOINT together with ADIFOR and TAMC, the automatic differentiation software for forward and reverse mode, respectively. Numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.
