In this paper, using an adjoint variable method, we develop a design sensitivity analysis (DSA) method applicable to 3-Dimensional heat conduction problems in steady state. Also, a topology design optimization method is developed using the developed DSA method. Design sensitivity expressions with respect to the thermal conductivity are derived. Since the already factorized system matrix is utilized to obtain the adjoint solution, the cost for the sensitivity computation is trivial. For the topology design optimization, the design variables are parameterized into normalized bulk material densities. The objective function and constraint are the thermal compliance of structures and allowable material volume, respectively, Through several numerical examples, the developed DSA method is verified to yield efficiency and accurate sensitivity results compared with finite difference ones. Also, the topology optimization yields physical meaningful results.

A method of the shape design sensitivity analysis based on the boundary integral equation formulation is presented for two-dimensional inhomogeneous thermal conducting solids with multiple domains. Shape variation of the external and interface boundary is considered. A sensitivity formula of a general performance functional is derived by taking the material derivative to the boundary integral identity and by introducing an adjoint system. In numerical analysis, state variables of the primal and adjoint systems are solved by the boundary element method using quadratic elements. Two numerical examples of a compound cylinder and a thermal diffuser are taken to show implementation of the shape design sensitivity analysis. Accuracy of the present method is verified by comparing analyzed sensitivities with those by the finite difference. As application to the shape optimization, an optimal shape of the thermal diffuser is found by incorporating the sensitivity analysis algorithm in an optimization program.

원자력 분야에서 중성자 수송계산을 위해 개발되어 널리 사용되는 방향차분법을 시간 종속 복사 열전달식의 해를 구하는데 적용하였다. 광자의 방향별 밀도를 자체수반형 2계 편미분방정식으로 나타내어 해의 안정성을 높였고 매질의 온도방정식의 비선형성은 다단계 선형화법을 사용하여 근사하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 해법을 전형적인 Marshak wave 문제에 적용하였고 계산 결과를 기존의 Monte Carlo의 계산결과와 비교하여 그 우월성을 보였다.

An optimal shape design approach is presented for a subsonic S-shaped intake using aerodynamic sensitivity analysis. Two-equation turbulence model is employed to capture strong counter vortices in the S-shaped duct more precisely. Sensitivity analysis is performed for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations coupled with two-equation turbulence models using a discrete adjoint method For code validation, the result of the flow solver is compared with experiment data and other computational results of bench marking test. To study the influence oj turbulence models and grid refinement on the duct flow analysis, the results from several turbulence models are compared with one another and the minimum number of grid points, which can yield an accurate solution is investigated The adjoint variable code is validated by comparing the complex step derivative results. To realize a sufficient and flexible design space, NURBS equations are introduced as a geometric representation and a new grid modification technique, Least Square NURBS Grid Approximation is applied With the verified flow solver, the sensitivity analysis code and the geometric modification technique, the optimization of S-shaped intake is carried out and the enhancement of overall intake performance is achieved The designed S-shaped duct is tested in several off-design conditions to confirm the robustness of the current design approach. As a result, the capability and the efficiency of the present design tools are successfully demonstrated in three-dimensional highly turbulent internal flow design and off-design conditions.

This paper proposes an optimal design software for the open-chain dynamic systems whose governing equations are expressed as differential equation. In this software, an input module and an automatic creation module of the equation of motion are developed to contrive the user's convenience. To analyze the equation of motion of the dynamic systems, variable-order and variable-stepsize Adams-Bashforth-Moulton predictor-corrector method is used to improve the efficiency. For the optimization and the design sensitivity analysis, ALM(augmented lagrange multiplier)method and adjoint variable method are adopted respectively. An output module with which the user can compare and investigate the analysis and the optimization results through tables and graphs is also provided. The developed software is applied to three typical dynamic response optimization problems, and the results compare very well with those available in the literature, demonstrating its effectiveness.

본 연구에서는 신경망에 기반한 불확실성 모델을 이용하여 전투기 날개 형상의 강건 최적 설계를 수행하였다. 불확실성 모델을 구축하기 위하여 공력성능과 이들의 민감도 정보를 중심합성법으로 선정된 실험점에서 구하였으며, 이 때 3차원 오일러 방정식과 adjoint변수방법이 사용되었다. 또한 비선형성 모사능력이 뛰어난 신경망모델을 이용함으로써 공력성능계수의 민감도 정보를 효율적이고 정확하게 예측하는 것이 가능하였다. 이와 같은 방법으로 구하여진 강건 최적 설계 결과로부터, 불확실성 모델의 변동과 신뢰도 수준의 변화가 증가할수록 목적함수 및 제약조건에 대한 강건성이 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

It is main objective of this approach to present a method to analyse stochastic design sensitivity for problems of structural dynamics with randomness in design parameters. A combination of the adjoint variable approach and the second order perturbation method is used in the finite element approach. An alternative form of the constant functional that holds for all times is introduced to consider the time response of dynamic sensitivity. The terminal problem of the adjoint system is solved using equivalent homogeneous equations excited by initial velocities. The numerical procedures are shown to be much more efficient when based on the fold superposition method: the generalized co-ordinates are normalized and the correlated random variables are transformed to uncorrelated variables, whereas the secularities are eliminated by the fast Fourier transform of complex valued sequences. Numerical algorithms have been worked out and proved to be accurate and efficient : they can be readily adapted to fit into the existing finite element codes whose element derivative matrices can be explicitly generated. The numerical results of two cases -2 dimensional portal frame for the comparison with reference and 3-dimensional frame structure - for the deterministic sensitivity analysis are presented.

A three-dimensional aerodynamic shape optimization technique in inviscid compressible flows is developed by using a parallel continuous adjoint formulation on unstructured meshes. A new surface mesh modification method is proposed to overcome difficulties related to patch-level remeshing for unstructured meshes, and the effect of design sections on aerodynamic shape optimization is examined. Applications are made to three-dimensional wave drag minimization problems including an ONERA M6 wing and the EGLIN wing-pylon-store configuration. The results show that the present method is robust and highly efficient for the shape optimization of aerodynamic configurations, independent of the number of design variables used.
