This paper presents a design optimization process for interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSM) for hybrid electric compressors (HEC) which are applied to hybrid electrical vehicles. A hybrid electric compressor is composed of an electric motor driving section and an engine driving section which is connected to the engine by a pulley belt. A hybrid electric compressor driving motor requires half of the full driving power of a compressor. Even though an engine is not operated at the idling stop mode, the electric motor drives the air-conditioner compressor by itself so that the air conditioning system can produce its minimum cooling capacity. In this paper, the design optimization of an IPMSM for a 42 (V) applied voltage system is studied using the design of experiment (DOE) and response surface method (RSM) of 6sigma. The driving characteristics of this motor drive system are measured and analyzed by experiment.

가스 절연 개폐장치(Gas Insulated Switchgear : GIS)의 고체 스페이서에 경사기능성 재료(Functionally Graded Material : FGM)를 적용할 때, 전계의 완화를 예상할 수 있다. 특히, 균일 유전율 분포를 가지는 스페이서에서 양극 근처에 집중된 높은 전계가 FGM 스페이서를 사용할 때, 스페이서와 $SF_6$ 가스의 접촉부로 옮겨지며, 그 크기가 완화됨을 확인할 수 있었다[1]. 본 연구에서는 상용 고체 스페이서의 양극 부근에서의 전계 집중을 감소시키기 위해 전극 형상의 최적화를 수행하였다. 최적화 기법으로는 완전계승계획법(Full Factorial Design : FFD)과 결합된 반응표면법(Response Surface Method : RSM)을 이용하였으며, 균일 유전율 스페이서에서 양극 형상을 최적화하였다. 또한 타원형 유전율 분포를 가지는 FGM 스페이서를 이용함으로써, 상용 GIS 모델에 비해 최대 전계가 크게 완화될 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 상용 GIS의 외함부의 크기를 줄여 실제 소형화 가능 여부를 확인하였다.

This paper describes the shape optimization of a blower impeller used for a refuse collection system. Two design variables, which are used to define the blade angles of an impeller, are introduced to increase the blower performance. A blower efficiency is selected as an object function, and the shape optimization of the blade angles is performed by a response surface method (RSM). Three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are introduced to analyze the internal flow of the blower and to find the value of object function for the training data. Relatively good agreement between experimental measurements and numerical simulation is obtained in the present study. Throughout the shape optimization, blower efficiency for the optimal blade angles is successfully increased up to 3.6% compared with that of reference at the design flow rate. Detailed flow field inside the turbo blower is also analyzed and discussed.

This research studied robust design of composite structure under combined loading of bending and torsion. DOE (Design of Experiment) technique was used to find important design factors. The results show that the beam height, beam width, layer thickness and stack angle of outer-layer are important design parameter. The $2^{nd}$ DOE and RSM (Response Surface Model) were conducted to obtain optimum design. Multi-island genetic algorithm was used to optimum design. An approximate value of 6.65 mm in deflection was expected under optimum condition. Six sigma robust design was conducted to find out guideline for control range of design parameter. To acquire six sigma level reliability, the sigma level reliability, the standard deviation of design parameter should be controlled within 2.5 % of average design value.

In this paper, an optimum design problem for endosseous implant in dentistry is studied to find best implant design. An optimum design problem is formulated to reduce stresses arising at the cortical as well as cancellous bones, in which sufficient design parameters are chosen for design definition that encompasses major implants in popular use. Optimization at once (OAO) with the large number of design variables, however, causes too costly solution or even failure to converge. A concept of multilevel optimization (MLO) is employed to this end, which is to group the design variables of similar nature, solve the sub-problem of smaller size for each group in sequence, and this is iterated until convergence. Each sub-problem is solved based on the response surface method (RSM) due to its efficiency for small sized problem.

Recently, because of the growth in the leisure industry and interest in health, the demand for bicycles has increased. In this research, considering the vertical load on a bike frame under static state conditions, the deflection and mass of the bike frame were minimized by satisfying the service condition and performing optimization. The thickness of the bicycle-frame tube was set to a design variable, and its sensitivity was confirmed by an analysis of means (ANOM). To optimize the solution, a response-surface-method (RSM) model was constructed using D-Optimal and central composite design(CCD). The optimization was performed using a non-dominant sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II), and the optimal solution was verified by finite-element analysis.

This paper presents the structure design for optimizing output power density and efficiency to develop a spoke-type interior permanent magnet synchronous generator (IPMSG). To obtain the optimal structure, the combination of response surface method (RSM) and 2-D finite element analysis can solve the problem effectively for reducing the volume of permanent magnets (PMs) and maximizing the ratio between power density and efficiency. The effectiveness of this proposed structure design is verified by the simulation and experiment according to the comparison of the electromagnetic characteristics between the initial and modified structure.
