The present investigation has attemped to optimize hydrogen reduction process for the mass production of Fe-8wt%Ni nanoalloy powder from ball milled $Fe_2O_3-NiO$ powder. In-situ hygrometry study was performed to monitor the reduction behavior in real time through measurement of water vapor outflowing rate. It was found that the reduction process can be optimized by taking into account the apparent influence of water vapor trap in the reactor on reduction kinetics which strongly depends on gas flow rate, reactor volume and reduction.

In this paper, we study the inverse mode shape problem for an Euler-Bernoulli beam, using an analytical approach. The mass and stiffness variations are determined for a beam, having various boundary conditions, which has a prescribed polynomial second mode shape with an internal node. It is found that physically feasible rectangular cross-section beams which satisfy the inverse problem exist for a variety of boundary conditions. The effect of the location of the internal node on the mass and stiffness variations and on the deflection of the beam is studied. The derived functions are used to verify the p-version finite element code, for the cantilever boundary condition. The paper also presents the bounds on the location of the internal node, for a valid mass and stiffness variation, for any given boundary condition. The derived property variations, corresponding to a given mode shape and boundary condition, also provides a simple closed-form solution for a class of non-uniform Euler-Bernoulli beams. These closed-form solutions can also be used to check optimization algorithms proposed for modal tailoring.

Passive control of the flutter condition of suspension bridges using a combined vertical and torsional tuned mass damper (TMD) system is presented. The proposed TMD system has two degrees of freedom, which are tuned close to the frequencies corresponding to vertical and torsional symmetric modes of the bridge which get coupled during flutter. The bridge-TMD system is analyzed for finding critical wind speed for flutter using a finite element approach. Thomas Suspension Bridge is analyzed as an illustrative example. The effectiveness of the TMD system in increasing the critical flutter speed of the bridge is investigated through a parametric study. The results of the parametric study led to the optimization of some important parameters such as mass ratio, TMD damping ratio, tuning frequency, and number of TMD systems which provide maximum critical flutter wind speed of the suspension bridge.

An integrated optimal structural design method for a diagrid structure and control device was developed. A multi-objective genetic algorithm was used and a 60-story diagrid building structure was developed as an example structure. Artificial wind and earthquake loads were generated to assess the wind-induced and seismic responses. A smart tuned mass damper (TMD) was used as a structural control system and an MR (magnetorheological) damper was employed to develop a smart TMD (STMD). The multi-objective genetic algorithm used five objectives including a reduction of the dynamic responses, additional stiffness and damping, mass of STMD, capacity of the MR damper for the integrated optimization of a diagrid structure and a STMD. From the proposed method, integrated optimal designs for the diagrid structure and STMD were obtained. The numerical simulation also showed that the STMD provided good control performance for reducing the wind-induced and seismic responses of a tall diagrid building structure.

Tonpilz 트랜스듀서에서 head mass에 영향을 미치는 요소로써 그 형상과 무게 및 소재의 영향을 연구하였다. 형상 요소로는 head mass의 옆면이 대칭 축과 이루는 각도를 그 인자로 하여 0도, 35.5도, 60도로 변화시키면서 대역폭과 출력의 변화를 모사하였다. 그 결과 Al의 경우에는 35.5도에서 대역폭이 최대 값이 되었으며 그 때의 대역폭은 86.4 %로 계산되었다. Head mass의 중량은 대역폭에는 큰 영향이 없이 출력에만 영향을 미치는데 중량이 25 % 감소하였을 때 20 % 정도 출력이 증가하였다. 끝으로 head mass의 소재를 Ti로 변경하였을 때에는 밀도의 차이에 의한 무게의 증가에도 불구하고 출력이 100 % 향상되었는데 이는 Ti의 탄성률 같은 기계적 특성의 영향으로 판단되며 최대의 대역폭을 얻기 위한 형상은 45도에서 얻어졌고 대역폭은 88.1 %이었다.

This study examined the economics of a solar water heating system for an office building using life cycle cost (LCC) optimization simulations. The numerical simulations were conducted with TRNSYS and GenOpt employing the Hooke-Jeeves algorithm. The solar collector area, slope, mass flow rate per collector area and storage tank volume were selected as the main design parameters of the solar water heating system. The LCC optimization simulations of the system were carried out for cases where water temperature was $60^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$. The results showed that for water temperature at $60^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$ the collector area could be decreased by 17% and 28%, storage tank volume could be decreased by 49% and 54%, and mass flow rate per collector area increased by 5% and 9% respectively compared to a non-optimized system. The LCC of the system was reduced by 4% for $60^{\circ}C$ and 7% for $50^{\circ}C$. The initial installation cost of the system was reduced by 24% for $60^{\circ}C$ and 34% for $50^{\circ}C$. However, the operating cost of the system increased by 16% for $60^{\circ}C$ and 36% for $50^{\circ}C$ compared to a traditional solar water heating system.

이 연구에서는 MR 브레이크를 이용하는 새로운 형태의 햅틱 그리퍼를 제안하였다. 이를 위하여, 다양한 형태의 MR 브레이크를 고려한 뒤, 각 MR 브레이크의 제동 토크와 점성 마찰토크를 빙햄 모델에 기반하여 분석하였다. MR 브레이크의 최적설계를 위해 유한요소법과 최적화 toolbox를 통합한 새로운 알고리즘이 고안되었으며, 점성 마찰토크는 필요 제동 토크보다 작도록 구속조건을 설정하였다. 이러한 최적 설계 알고리즘을 통하여 적절한 제동 토크를 시스템에 부하할 수 있으며 무게가 최소화된 MR 브레이크를 설계할 수 있었다. 그리고 최적 설계된 MR 브레이크의 성능 또한 고찰하였다.

In the design of a combat vehicle, various performances such as firepower, mobility and survivability, etc., should be considered. Furthermore, since these performances relate to each other, design framework which can treat an integrated system should be employed to design the combat vehicle. In this paper, we use empirical interior ballistic and 3D combat vehicle analyses for predicting firepower and mobility performances which are developed in previous study (1) integrated performance modeling. In firepower performance, pitch and roll angle by sequential firing are considered. In mobility performance, vertical acceleration after passing through a bump is regarded. However, since there are many design variables such as mass of vehicle, mass of suspension, spring and damping coefficient of suspension and tire, geometric variables of vehicle, etc., for firepower and mobility performance, we utilize analysis of variance and quality function deployment to reduce the number of design variables. Finally, integrated design optimization is carried out for integrated performance such as firepower and mobility.

이 논문은 연속보의 동적 최적설계에 관한 연구이다. 본 연구에서는 연속보의 근사적인 최적제원을 결정하기 위하여 컴퓨터 프로그램의 실행결과를 이용한 기법을 이용하였다. 경간길이, 질량 및 휨강성이 변화하는 연속보의 자유진동해석과 이동 집중하중이 작용하는 경우 동적응답해석을 실행할 수 있는 컴퓨터 프로그램을 개발하였다. 모형실험 결과와 이론적인 해석결과가 잘 일치하여 해석결과의 타당성을 검증할 수 있었다. 설계효율을 나타내기 위하여 최대 동적응력, 경간사이의 응력차이, 이동 집중하중이 작용하는 점에서의 rms 처짐 및 전체지간의 총질량 등 4가지의 무차원 변수들의 선형결합으로 이루어지는 최적함수를 정의하였다. 3경간 연속보에 대한 해석결과 개략적인 최적제원을 갖는 연속보로 설계하는 경우 등간격의 등단면 연속보에 비해 설계효율을 개선할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Normal strategy of structure optimization procedure has been minimum cost or weight design. Minimum weight design satisfying an allowable stress has been used for the ship and offshore structure, but minimum cost design could be used for the case of high human cost. Natural frequency analysis and forced vibration one have been used for the strength estimation of marine structures. For the case of high precision experiment facilities in marine field, the structure has normally enough margin in allowable stress aspect and sometimes needs high natural frequency of structure to obtain very high precise experiment results. It is not easy to obtain a structure design with high natural frequency, since the natural frequency depend on the stiffness to mass ratio of the structure and increase of structural stiffness ordinary accompanies the increase of mass. It is further difficult at the grillage structure design using the profiles, because the properties of profiles are not continuous but discrete, and resource of profiles are limited at the design of grillage structure. In this paper, the grillage structure design system under the constraint of high natural frequency is introduced. The design system adopted genetic algorithm to realize optimization procedure and can be used at the design of the experimental facilities of marine field such as a towing carriage, PMM, test frame, measuring frame and rotating arm.
