In recent years, grinding techniques for precision machining of astainless steel used in shaft, screw parts and clear value have been improved by using superabrasive wheel and precision grinding machine. The completion of optimum dressing of superabrasive wheel makes possible the effective percision grinding of stainless steel. However, the present dressing system cannot have control of optimum dressing of the superabrabive wheel. In this study, a new system and the grinding mechanism of optimum in-process electrolytic dressing were proposed. This system can carry out optimum in-process dressing of superabrasive wheel. Therefore, the optimum in-process electrolytic dressing is a good method to obtain the efficiency and mirror-like grinding of stainless steel(SUS304).

If optimum design technique is applied in the design of packaging container for bulk materials, merits on the side of not only economic and compression performance but distribution efficiency are expected. In this study, on the ground of the optimum models for required board area and compression strength performance, optimum design program having faculties of outward and inward optimum design and information design was developed. This program was composed of input module, output module, database and management module, and calculation module. Though the packaging specifications ars same, requied board area, board composition and cost of container were greatly different according to exterior packaging conditions. Also, about 12% in weight of container was lighter, and about $13{\sim}17%$ in cost of container was reduced when the program was applied for 2 kinds of bulk materials.

Biomechanical can physchological approaches have provided the optimum stair dimensions but physiological approach has never been used in assessing the common method of assessing the optimum stair dimension. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the validity of the physiological measure of heart rate in assessing the optimum stair dimensions. Sixteen subjects were asked to walk up three different stairs with their normal walking speed. The results showed that the physiological approach with the heart rate difference was found to be valid in assessing the optimum stair dimension. The optimum stair dimension from this study (riser length for 185 mm and tread length for 310 mm) was chosen because it was similar to optimum dimension by the psychological approach (Irvine et al., 1990).

We present an optimum design method for a rectangular reinforced concrete beam using Genetic Algorithms. The optimum design procedure in this paper employs 2 design cases: i) all of the design variables (b, d, As) of the rectangular reinforced concrete section are used pseudo-continuously, ii) one is pseudo-continuous for the concrete cross section (b, d) and the other is discrete, using an index for the steel area (As). The optimum design in this paper uses Chakrabarty's model. In this paper, the Genetic Algorithms use the method of Elitism and penalty parameters to improve the fitness in the reproduction process, which leads to very practical designs. The optimum design of the steel area in the examples uses ASTM standard reinforcing bars (#3~#11, #14, #18).

유전자 알고리즘은 효과적으로 최적의 해를 구하는 기법이나 진화연상산자의 선정에 따라 조기에 국부 최적해에 고착되어 전역 최적해로의 탐색을 어렵게 하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 국부 최적해로 수렴하게 되는 원인을 분석하고, 국부 최적해에서 벗어나 전역 최적해로의 천이가 가능하도록 하는 방법을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서 사용한 방법은 평균 해밍거리에 따라 진화연산자를 가변시키는 방법으로서 국부 최적해에 고착되지 않도록 유전자에 다양성을 부여하여 지속적으로 모집단의 진화 특성을 유지하는 방법이다. 제안된 방법은 시뮬레이션을 통하여 효용성을 입증하였다.

This paper develops a mathematical model which searches an optimum lot size of a press line, and applies this model to the scheduling of the press line. This mathematical model is not a widely studied cost model but a model which considers the utilization of the press line under a lean production system. In this paper, the optimum lot size is a minimum lot size which does not exceed the total work time of the press line. A production volume and the priority of the production in the press line are adjusted using this optimum lot size. A mathematical model developed in this paper will allow determining the optimum lot size easily in case of variable production environments such as an introduction of a new product and a fluctuation of production volume of each item. Therefore, our model will make a better scheduling of the press line and will enhance the utilization of it.

The purpose of this paper is the optimum modification of dynamic characteristics of stiffened plate structure including the number of stiffener. This paper shows the optimum structural modification method by dynamic sensitivity analysis and quasi-least squares method and considers it's validity. In the method of the optimization, finite element method, sensitivity analysis and optimum structural modification method are used. The change of natural frequency and total weight are made to be an objective function. Thickness of plate, the number of stiffener and cross section moment of stiffener become a design variable. The dynamic characteristics of stiffened plate structure is analyzed using finite element method. Next, rate of change of dynamic characteristics by the change of design variable is calculated using the sensitivity analysis. Then, amount of change of design variable is calculated using optimum structural modification method. It is shown that the results are effective in the optimum modification for dynamic characteristics of the stiffened plate structure including the number of stiffener.

In recent years, grinding techniques for precision machining of brittle materials used in electric, optical and magnetic parts have been improved by using superabrasive wheel and precision grinding machine. The completion of optimum dressing of superabrasive wheel makes possible the effective precision grinding of brittle materials. But the present dressing system cannot have control of optimum dressing of the superabrasive wheel. This study has proposed a new optimum in-process electrolytic dressing system. This system can carry out optimum in-process dressing of superabrasive wheel, and give very effective control according to gap increase.

An optimization procedure has been prescribed for the minimum weight design of symmetrical parabolic arches subjected to arbitrary loading. The cross section is assumed to be a symmetrical box section with variable depth and flange areas. The webs are unstiffened and have constant thickness. The proposed sequential, iterative search technique determines the optimum geometrical configuration of the parabolic arch which includes the optimum depth profile and the optimum lengths and areas of the required flange plates corresponding to the prescribed number of curtailments. The study shows that the optimum value of rise to span ratio (h/L) of a parabolic arch is maximum at 0.41 for uniformly distributed loading over the entire span. For any other loading, the optimum value of h/L is less than 0.41.

The harmony search method based optimum design algorithm is presented for geometrically non-linear semi-rigid steel frames. Harmony search method is recently developed metaheuristic algorithm which simulates the process of producing a musical performance. The optimum design algorithm aims at obtaining minimum weight steel frames by selecting from standard set of steel sections such as European wide flange beams (HE sections). Strength constraints of Turkish Building Code for Steel Structures (TS648) specification and displacement constraints were used in the optimum design formulation. The optimum design algorithm takes into account both the geometric non-linearity of the frame members and the semi-rigid behaviour of the beam-to-column connections. The Frye-Morris polynomial model is used to calculate the moment-rotation relation of beam-to-column connections. The robustness of harmony search algorithm, in comparison with genetic algorithms, is verified with two benchmark examples. The comparisons revealed that the harmony search algorithm yielded not only minimum weight steel frames but also required less computational effort for the presented examples.
