Shield TBM tunneling method has been getting the spotlight for urban tunneling. It can be minimized the civil complaint during construction and possible safe tunneling. But the settlement has occurred inevitably due to characteristics of shield TBM equipment. For this reason, the civil complaint can occur in urban areas when tunnel with shallow depth passes through neighboring building or residential area. In this study, the occurrence factors of settlement according to shield TBM tunneling and the tendency of ground settlement by strata condition had analyzed. It is suggested that the practical settlement estimation method and minimizing method of ground settlement under simultaneous backfill grouting condition through measurement results and back analysis data using gap parameter.

This study was performed to find out optimum drying conditions of red pepper to minimize energy consumption and drying time, respectively, under the quality constraint using Box's complex method. The results from this study are summarized as follows. 1. From the optimization results for the drying process, energy consumption was minimized at the drying condition to minimize drying time. 2. The optimization results according to drying method was found out to be greatly affected by the quality constraint of red pepper. Especially, the turning point to change drying stage was a very important factor in the drying method with two stages.

This paper proposes a design method of PID controllers in the framework of a constrained optimization problem. Owing to the popularity for the controller's simplicity and robustness, a great deal of literature concerning PID control design has been published, which can be classified into frequency-based and time-based approaches. However, both approaches have to be considered together for a designed PID control to work well with a guaranteed closed-loop stability. For this purpose, a penalty function is formulated to satisfy both frequency- and time-domain specifications, and is minimized by a recet nonlinear optimization algorithm to attain optimal PID control gains. The proposed method is compared with Wang's and Ho's methods on a suite of example systems. Simulation results show that the PID control tuned by the proposed method improves time-domain performance without deteriorating closed-loop stability.

This paper describes a new method for the seamless operation mode transfer of a PCS with minimized voltage disturbance. The proposed method provides reduced STS turn off time after line fault and smooth mode change between current and voltage control of the PCS. The usefulness of the method is verified through simulations with the consideration of the time delay in detecting a line fault and SCR turn-off time.

Globally, customer appreciation and demand for quieter products has driven noise control engineers to develop efficient and quieter products in a relatively short time. In the vehicles and ship industry, noise has become an important attribute because of the competitive market and increasing customer awareness. Noise reduction is often achieved through structural modifications by typical approaches. In the present paper, author describes a fundamental study on optimum design of curvature. Bezier curve. and rib attachment to reduce noise from simple panel using a genetic algorithm(GA). The acoustic optimization procedure employed p-FEM for structural analysis, the Rayleigh integral method for acoustic analysis and the GA for searching optimum design. In the optimization procedure. the objective function to be minimized is the average sound power radiated from an objective structure over a given frequency range $0{\sim}300$ Hz.

The objective of this research is to develop a robust design methodology for plastic injection molded parts wherein warpage will be minimized by a complex method which is a kind of a simple direct search method. The design space considered for optimization is divided Into two sub-design space : mold and process conditions. Warpage is quantified using the Moldflow injection molding simulation software. The design methodology was applied to an actual part of a fax machine, the Guide-ASF model, through two different design policies. The significance of this study is the synthesis of a computer simulation of injection molding process and optimization technique to determine the optimal robust design solution.

In this paper, the optimal position selection of error sensors and transducers to attenuate interior noise from outside noise sources using active control techniques is presented. To get an optimal control characteristics in adaptive noise control systems, it is necessary to optimize the positions of sensors and transducers. A new type of simulated annealing method has been proposed as searching technique to find optimal transducers and sensors positions in which the sum of the squared pressures at sensor position in an enclosure can be best minimized. Computer simulations and experiments have been performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

When a product is designed, tolerances must be given to the product so that required functions are guaranteed and production costs are minimized. In this research, a model is suggested which allocates tolerances to components optimally according to the STA(Statistical Tolerance Allocation) method. Taking into account the concept that dimensional errors have characteristics of statistical distributions, this model presents the discrete pseudo-boolean approach for the tolerance optimization by minimizing the tolerance cost and the quality loss cost. In this approach, two methods are proposed for the reduction of the problem scale; 1) a method for converting the minimization model for casts into the maximization model for cost savings, and 2) procedures to reduce the number of constraints and variables.

A rapid Prototyping system that laser-cuts and laminates thick layers can fabricate 3D objects promptly with a variety of materials. Building such a system must consider the surface distortions due to both vertical-cut layers and triangular surfaces. We developed a tangential layer-cutting algorithm by rearranging tangential lines such that they reconstruct 3D surfaces more closely and also constitute smoother laser trajectories. An energy function that reflects the surface-closeness with the tangential lines was formulated and then the energy was minimized by a gradient descent method. Since this simple method tends to cause many local minima for complex 3D objects, we tried to solve this problem by adding a simulated annealing process to the proposed method. To view and manipulate 3D objects, we also implemented a 3D visual environment. Under this environment, experiments on various 3D objects showed that our algorithm effectively approximates 3D surfaces and makes laser-trajectory feasibly smooth.

In this paper, the previous 2-D gradient coil design method using loop current elements is extended to 3-D or multi-layer structures which is useful for various MRI applications including MR microscopic imaging where relatively large space may be available for the implementation of the gradient coils. Either the power consumption or the stored energy (thus, inductance), or the combination of the two can be minimized with a set of chosen target field constraints. Complete 3-D design equations for the optimization as well as inductance or resistance calculation are derived. An effective coil shape correction method for a curved current pattern is also developed. The design method can also be easily extended to the active shielding structure.
