In between of linear and nonlinear systems lies a large class of bilinear systems. The major importance of bilinear systems lies in the applications to the real world systems such as many physical processes, many biological process, some economic process. Despite vast application of bilinear systems they have not been studied extensively in the domain of singularly perturbations except for a few minor results. In this paper we will utilize singular peturbations theory to obtain the closed-loop optimal solution for discrete-time bilinear systems.

We investigated the optimum adhesive thickness for athermalizing an elastomeric lens mount in our space optics application. Theoretical results were compared with finite element solutions using two different models; discrete circular pads and discrete circular pads with columns filling the insertion holes reflecting the reality. A noticeable difference between their optimal thicknesses was observed, and physical interpretation revealed the uncertainty of prevailing athermal equations. A pilot sample was made to check our results and thermo-optical stress was assessed using an interferometer after isothermal load. This study presented insight into preliminary design guidance in elastomeric lens mounting.

본 연구는 횡변위 구속조건을 받는 고층철골구조물의 이산형 최적설계를 위해 효율적인 쌍대알고리즘을 제시하고자 한다. 양함수형태의 횡변위 구속조건을 설정하기 위해 가상일의 원리가 적용되면 고층철골조의 설계변수의 수를 줄여주기 위해 쌍대알고리즘내에 단면특성관계식이 추가된다. 이 알고리즘의 검증을 위하여 횡하중을 받는 네 가지 형태의 고층철골조 예제가 제시되며, 반복과정에서 수렴된 최종물량을 기존의 최적설계방법과 비교해 봄으로써 제시된 알고리즘의 효율성이 검토된다.

The engineering optimization has been developed for the automatic design of engineering systems. Since the conventional optimum is determined without considering noise factors, applications to practical problems can be limited. Current design practice tends to account for these noises by the specification of closer tolerances or the use of safety factors. However, these approaches may be very expensive. Thus the consideration on the noises of design variables is needed for optimal design. A method is presented to find robust solutions for unconstrained optimization problems. The method is applied to discrete and continuous variables. The orthogonal array is utilized based on the Taguchi concept. Through mathematical proofs and numerical examples, it is verified that solutions from the suggested method are more insensitive than the conventional optimum within the range of variations for design variables.

This study aims at comparing the optimum design of two common types open web expanded beams: with hexagonal openings, also called castellated beams and beams with circular openings referred to as cellular beams. The minimum weights of both beams are taken as the objective functions while the design constraints are respectively implemented from The Steel Construction Institute Publication Numbers 5 and 100. The design methods adopted in these publications are consistent with BS5950 parts. The formulation of the design problem considering the limitations of the above mentioned turns out to be a discrete programming problem. Improved harmony search algorithm is suggested to compare the optimum design of mentioned web-expanded beams to analysis the performance of both beams. The design algorithms based on the technique select the optimum Universal Beam sections, dimensional properties of hexagonal and circular holes and total number of openings along the beam as design variables.

This paper considers the design and analysis of one-step ahead optimal and adaptive controllers, under the restriction that a known constraint on the input amplitude is imposed. It is assumed that the discrete-time single-input, single-output system to be controlled is linear, except for inequality constraints on the input. The objective function to be minimized is an one-step quadratic function, where polynomial weights on the input and output are included. Both the known parameter and unknown parameter (indirect adaptive controller) cases are examined.

We present a dynamic Bayesian network (DBN) model of a generalized class of nonstationary birth-death processes. The model includes birth and death rate parameters that are randomly selected from a known discrete set of values. We present an on-line algorithm to obtain optimal estimates of the parameters. We provide a simulation of real-time characterization of load traffic estimation using our DBN approach.

In this paper, robust controllers which guarantee the stability and the quadratic performance in the presence of the state and the input matrix uncertainties are presented. Modified quadratic performance indices which include the model uncertainties are proposed for continuous and discrete time linear systems. And it is shown that the solution of the proposed optimal performance problem is the robust controller.

In this paper, the problem of regulation in the presence of a known firing disturbance is considered. We show how one can apply a disturbance-utilizing control(DUC) theory to a actual gun servo model. Applied disturbance-utilizing control theory is established by combining LQ regulator and reduced order observer in the discrete time domain. To see the performance of the applied method, computer simulation results are given.
