The paper deals with comparative study for characteristics of approximation of design space according to various approximate models and sensitivity analysis using orthogonal array experiments in structure design of active type DSF which was developed for float-over installation of offshore plant. This study aims to propose the orthogonal array experiments based design methodology which is able to efficiently explore an optimum design case and to generate the accurate approximate model. Thickness sizes of main structure member were applied to the design factors, and output responses were considered structure weight and strength performances. Quantitative effects on the output responses for each design factor were evaluated using the orthogonal array experiment. Best design case was also identified to improve the structure design with weight minimization. From the orthogonal array experiment results, various approximate models such as response surface model, Kriging model, Chebyshev orthogonal polynomial model, and radial basis function based neural network model were generated. The experiment results from orthogonal array method were validated by the approximate modeling results. It was found that the radial basis function based neural network model among the approximate models was able to approximate the design space of the active type DSF with the highest accuracy.

N-continuous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a precoding method for sidelobe suppression of OFDM signals and seamlessly connects OFDM symbols up to the high-order derivative for sidelobe suppression, which is suitable for suppressing out-of-band radiation. However, it severely degrades the error rate as it increases the continuous derivative order. Two schemes for orthogonal precoding of N-continuous OFDM have been proposed to achieve an ideal error rate while maintaining sidelobe suppression performance; however, the large size of the precoder matrices in both schemes causes very high computational complexity for precoding and decoding. This paper proposes matrix decomposition of precoder matrices with a large size in the orthogonal precoding schemes in order to reduce computational complexity. Numerical experiments show that the proposed method can drastically reduce computational complexity without any performance degradation.

In this study, LCD Cell process has been analyzed through ARENA simulation. The major concern is to find the condition maximizing production rate (or quantity per hour). For the analysis, we have selected 4 factors and performed simulation experiments through $L_8(2^7)$ orthogonal arrays. Our results indicate that the production may be maximized with well selected conditions proposed in this study. The results obtained from this study may provide a good base for practical applications.

This study was motivated how it might be possible to validate structured sampling with orthogonal array for optimal design of a pin. The Taguchi method by orthogonal array, one of the structured sampling methods, has much advantage that is row cost and time saving for experiments. But this method has been applied in limited areas especially for mechanical problems. In this study, we experimented whether the structured sampling is useful for applying optimal design of mechanical elements. For the experiment, we first set up a mechanical problem which was related to determining optimal parameters associated a pin's crack occurred inside a hole. We, then, calculated combination of...

Temperature distribution on flank face in orthogonal turning with cutting tool of high speed steel is studied by using a finite element method and experiments. Experiments are carried out to verify the validity of the temperature measurement by using a thermoelectric couple junction imbedded in a cutting tool of high speed steel. Good agreement is obtained between the analytical results and the experimental ones for the temperature distributions on flank face of cutting tool with high speed steel. The analytical results show that the temperature on the top flank face of a tool is higher because of the difference of the friction velocity on each face of the tool.

In this work, the parameter optimization for thermal-sprayed Al/SiC composites have been designed by $L_9(3^4)$ orthogonal array and analysis of variance(ANOVA). Al/SiC composites were fabricated by flame spray process on steel substrate. The hardness of composites were measured using micro-vickers hardness tester, and these results were analyzed by ANOVA. The ANOVA results showed that the oxygen gas flow, powder feed rate and spray distance affect on the hardness of the Al/SiC composites. From the ANOVA results, the optimal combination of the flame spray parameters could be extracted. It was considered that experimental design using orthogonal array and ANOVA was efficient to determine optimal parameter of thermal-sprayed Al/SiC composites.

Kriging model is widely used as design DACE(analysis and computer experiments) model in the field of engineering design to accomplish computationally feasible design optimization. In this paper, the optimization of gate valve was performed using Kriging based approximation model. The DACE modeling, known as the one of Kriging interpolation, is introduced to obtain the surrogate approximation model of the function. In addition, we describe the definition, the prediction function and the algorithm of Kriging method and examine the accuracy of Kriging by using validation method.

Easy measurement method of orthogonal triple-sensor hot-wire anemometer is developed. Advantages of the new method is that it does not require either the exact orthogonality of the installed wires which cannot be kept during the probe manufacture and repair, nor the knowledge of the wire installation angles and the yaw and pitch coefficient of the wires. The new method introduced yaw and pitch calibration coefficients which are designed to increase monotonically with yaw and pitch angles. So the resulting calibration network is simple to recognize compared with that of the previously suggested calibration method. Verification experiments showed good accuracy and independency of the directional calibration on velocity.

The butterfly valve has been used to control a flow effectively in the industrial because of its lightweight, simple structure and the rapidity of its manipulation. However, it is difficult to have the existing structural optimization using field analysis from CFD to structure analysis when the structure is influenced by fluid. This paper is evaluated the specificity to get the flow characteristic and stability of the butterfly valve using FEM and CFD. Also, it accomplished the shape optimization design using the orthogonal arrangement and characteristic function. Research result, a few experiments showed the optimal results of three dimensional structures to be multi-objective.

The molding characteristics of large-sized orthogonal stiffened plastic plates were investigated in the present study. Models with the geometry of 1800$\times$600$\times$12mm and 1200$\times$600$\times$12mm were designed for injection molding(IM) and injection-compression molding(ICM), respectively. To determine a mold system and reduce the warpage of the presented model after molding process, IM and ICM analyses using MOLDFLOW$^{TM}$ were performed. Also, the experiments were performed to verify the suggested mold system. It was shown that the change of molding method could significant effect on the warpage of designed model.l.
