This study was conducted to explore a method of displaying optimized letters that fit the size of tables using a genetic algorithm. As a result, fonts with optimized letters of different lengths were offered through optimum values of the font size, line spacing, and letter spacing by calculating the width and height of the cell and number of letters to be entered. This study is significant in that it provides a solution to letter optimization issues in fixed cells that occur in various word processors that are currently used, through the genetic algorithm.

Major concern in modern industry is how to reduce the time and cost for product efficient production. Among many mechanical parts of a satellite, bracket plays an important role to support the load when the satellite is launched to space. so enough strength and stiffness. A designer could add unnecessary material and strength it so as not to fail when it used. But if mechanical part of satellite is over-designed, cost will rise and it also goes against to the aim of lightness. To achieve lightness and enough strength and stiffness, optimization algorithm should be introduced in design process. In this study, conceptual design of bracket is carried out to increase the performance of satellite. Some parameter which could change the weight of this part are selected as design variables. Total weight of bracket is to be minimized while displacement and stress should not exceed limit. Size optimization is done with 3D solid element and PLBA, the RQP algorithm. The weight of 0.262kg of initial model is reduced to 0.241kg after optimization process, so 9.8% of weight reduction is obtained.

Ko(1998) proposed a procedure to enhance the efficiency of double sampling plans by allowing second-stage sample size and critical region to depend on first-stage evidence using constraint optimization approaches. In this study further developments of such plans by incorporating several practically possible researcher's aims into the optimization are considered. Comparisons are made with the optimal ordinary double sampling plan and also among them It is observed that it is to some extent possible to match the details of the optimization to certain qualitative methodological aims.

In structural optimization, static loads are generally utilized although real external forces are dynamic. Dynamic loads have been considered in only small-scale problems. Recently, an algorithm for dynamic response optimization using transformation of dynamic loads into equivalent static loads has been proposed. The transformation is conducted to match the displacement fields from dynamic and static analyses. The algorithm can be applied to large-scale problems. However, the application has been limited to size optimization. The present study applies the algorithm to shape optimization. Because the number of degrees of freedom of finite element models is usually very large in shape optimization, it is difficult to conduct dynamic response optimization with the conventional methods that directly threat dynamic response in the time domain. The optimization process is carried out via interfacing an optimization system and an analysis system for structural dynamics. Various examples are solved to verify the algorithm. The results are compared to the results from static loads. It is found that the algorithm using static loads transformed from dynamic loads based on displacement is valid even for very large-scale problems such as shape optimization.

The transmission case has bearing loads, The case should be designed with more stiffness and lightweight under high external loads, In this study, we performed FEA(Finite Element Analysis) for the transmission case and performed topology optimization base on the results of FEA. We performed topology optimization with the control of the shape size which is the results of topology optimization and suggested the shaped of the transmission case of topology optimization.

The automotive industry faces many competitive challenges including weight and cost reduction to meet need for higher fuel economy. It is a trend that a lot of parts have been currently changed to an aluminum alloy from steel materials. It is required more precise analysis for practical load because of complexities and varieties of vehicle structure. In this study, the shape optimization using a FEA is performed to determine the design of the knuckle. The size optimization is carried out to find thickness while the stiffness constraints are satisfied. A commercial optimization software MSC/NASTRAN is utilized for the structural analysis and the optimization processes.

A general approximate optimization technique by sequential design domain(SDD) did not save response values for getting an approximate function in each step. It has a disadvantage at aspect of an expense. In this paper, previous response values are recycled for constructing an approximate function. For this reason, approximation function is more accurate. Accordingly, even if we did not determine move limit, a system is converged to the optimal design. Size and shape optimization using approximate optimization technique is carried out with SDD. Algorithm executing Pro/Engineer and ANSYS are automatically adopted in the approximate optimization program by SDD. Convergence criterion is defined such that optimal point must be located within SDD during the three steps. The PLBA(Pshenichny-Lim-Belegundu-Arora) algorithm is used to solve approximate optimization problems. This algorithm uses the second-order information in the direction finding problem and uses the active set strategy.

The TFT-LCD is extensively used from a small watch to a large TV display, and the demand is increasing rapidly. The size of R-LCD glass plate becomes more bigger, and the thickness become more thinner with high demands. As a result natural frequency of the TFT-LCD glass plate becomes more lower. The TFT-LCD glass plate will be moved by robot arm and may receive effect of vibration that occur at transfer. Natural frequency of the TFT-LCD glass plate is increased or decrease according to location that robot arm fixs glass plate. Purpose of a this study is finding support location that optimize the first natural frequency of TFT-LCD glass plate. The size optimization method of ANSYS 8.0 is used as the optimization tool search on the optimal support location of TFT-LCD glass plate. The considered number of support point is from 4 to 9.
