This research presents a study for the knowledge-based configuration design development of a RC (remote control) helicopter. Parametric design and knowledge based design concepts are introduced for rapid design changes and analyses using commercial CAD software, CATIA(R) Knowledgeware module. It is crucial for RC helicopter design because it enables rapid conceptual design through instant configuration changes. Positions and dimensions of RC helicopter parts were used as design parameters. As an example, positions of CG(center of gravity) points were traced and plotted as the configuration changes. Further research should be performed in areas of user interfaces and web-based multi-user environments instead of using Excel data sheets.

본 연구는 구조물의 형상 최적화를 효율적이면서 보다 용이하게 수행할 수 있는 기법을 제안하고자 하였다. 구조물의 형상 표현과 설계변수 선택을 위해 설계요소 개념을 활용하여 설계변수 수를 과감하게 줄일 수 있었고, 등매개변수 사상기법을 이용하여 최적화 과정 중 형상의 변화에 따른 유한요소망을 자동생성 하였으며 효율적인 최적화 과정 수행을 위하여 결정론적 최적화 기법(개선된 허용방향법)과 스토캐스틱 최적화 기법(유전 알고리즘)을 사용하여 그 결과와 효율성을 비교하였다. 최적화 과정 중 구조해석은 유한요소법을 이용하며 구조물의 부피와 단면적 등을 목적함수로 하여 형상 최적화를 수행하였다. 또한 제작성과 시공성을 위한 최종형상 제시를 위하여 최적형상에 완화곡선 처리를 시도하였다. 이상의 연구를 강구조물을 대상으로 한 몇 가지 수치 예에 적용한 결과 설계과정을 보다 단순화시켰으며, 두 가지 기법 모두 최적해에 수렴함으로써 목적함수 값을 효과적으로 개선시킬 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구는 그 타당성과 적용성이 있다고 판명된다.

The design of multi-stage gear drives is a time-consuming process because it includes more complicated problems, which are not considered in the design of single-stage gear drives. The designer has no determine the number of reduction stages and the gear ratios of each reduction stage. In addition, the design problems include not only dimensional design but also configuration design of gear drive elements. There is no definite rule or principle for these types of design problems. Thus the design practices largely depend on the sense and the experiences of the designer, and consequently result in undesirable design solution. A new and generalized design algorithm has been proposed to support the designer at the preliminary phase of the design of multi-stage gear drives. The proposed design algorithm automates the design process by integrating the dimensional design and the configuration design process. The algorithm consists of four steps. In the first step, the user determines the number of reduction stages. In the second step, gear ratios of every stage are chosen using the random search method. The values of the basic design parameters of a gear are chose in the third step by using the generate and test method. Then the values of the dimensions, such as pitch diameter, outer diameter and face width, are calculated for the configuration design in the next step. The strength and durability of each gear is guaranteed by the bending strength and the pitting resistance rating practices by using AGMA rating formulas. In the final step, the configuration design is carried out using simulated annealing algorithm. The positions of gears and shafts are determined to minimize the geometrical volume (size) of a gearbox while avoiding interferences between them. These steps are carried out iteratively until a desirable solution is acquired. The proposed design algorithm is applied to the preliminary design of four-stage gear drives in order to validate the availability. The design solution has considerably good results in both aspects of the dimensional and the configuration design.

In this paper, a research for the knowledge based configuration design software development of a train vehicle has been presented. Parametric design and knowledge based design concepts have been introduced for rapid design changes and analyses using a commercial CAD software, $CATIA^{/circledR}$ Knowledgeware module. Positions and dimensions of door, small window, large window, and number of seats were used as design parameters. It is crucial for train vehicle design because it enables rapid conceptual design by instant configuration changes. The results of this research can be used as one sub module of the multidisciplinary train vehicle design software and provide a basic data for rolling stock behavior and driver cab ergonomics of a train vehicle.

In order to satisfy customers'various needs in the market, manufacturing companies tend to add similar variants to an existing product model. This variety causes immense growth of product configuration and makes data management uncontrollable. In order to resolve this problem, we propose a method to efficiently represent the variants in a single schema of product structure and configuration and manage the product configuration. First of all, the product structure which adopts the concept of features and options is suggested. Second, the method to represent option specifications which restricts option configurations is proposed. Finally, the prototype module, which inspects if a product configuration violates the option specifications, is introduced.

It is known that about 15 to 40 percent of total design time is spent on retrieving information such as standard parts handbook data, engineering equations, previous designs. This paper describes a knowledge management system for machine tool design. Product structuring, change management, and complex design knowledge management are possible through the developed system. The system can speed up the design process by making necessary data instantly available as it is needed and keeping track of all the relevant design information and knowledge including individual decisions, design intentions, documents, and drawings.

본 논문에서는 최근에 개발된 고해상도 지구관측위성의 본체 형상설계 동향에 대해 기술하고자 한다. 인공위성의 본체는 임무, 탑재체, 발사환경, 임무특성, 자세제어 및 추진시스템에 따라 다양한 형상을 갖는다. 또한 2000년대 들어서 시작된 위성영상의 상업화에 따른 영상수요의 증가는 고해상도 영상을 신속히 많이 획득할 수 있는 위성시스템을 요구하고 있다. 이러한 요구에 맞춰 위성의 본체는 가벼우면서도 안정적으로 탑재체를 지지할 수 있도록 설계되고 있으며, 이 중에 형상설계 변화를 본 논문에서 집중적으로 살펴본다.

The configuration optimization is a structural optimization method which includes the coordinates of a structure as well as the sectional properties in the design variable set. Effective reduction of the weight of discrete structures can be obrained by changing the geometry while satisfying stress, Ei;er bickling, displacement, and frequency constraints, etc. However, the nonlinearity due to the configuration variables may cause the difficulties of the convergence and expensive computational cost. An efficient approximation method for the configuration optimization has been developed to overcome the difficulties. The method approximates the constraint functions based onthe second-order Taylor series expansion with reciprocal design variables. The Hessian matrix is approzimated from the information on previous design points. The developed algotithms are coded and the examples are solved.

The initial configuration for 95-seat passenger regional turboprop aircraft, the so called KC950, was designed to meet the market requirements. This paper prescribes the initial design based upon aircraft design guidelines and compared the competitive aircraft configurations after considering the related FAR 25 regulations. More specifically, results of design describe how to select the fuselage cross-sectional area, how to layout the cabin, and how to determine the overall shape and physical dimension of the fuselage. Sizing of wing and empennage areas is estimated using empirical equations and tail volume coefficients in this design. Some design guidelines to determine wing sweep angle, taper ratio, incidence angle and location are also introduced.
