Truss-Z (TZ) is an Extremely Modular System (EMS). Such systems allow for creation of structurally sound free-form structures, are comprised of as few types of modules as possible, and are not constrained by a regular tessellation of space. Their objective is to create spatial structures in given environments connecting given terminals without self-intersections and obstacle-intersections. TZ is a skeletal modular system for creating free-form pedestrian ramps and ramp networks. The previous research on TZ focused on global discrete geometric optimization of the spatial configuration of modules. This paper reports on the first attempts at structural optimization of the module for a single-branch TZ. The internal topology and the sizing of module beams are subject to optimization. An important challenge is that the module is to be universal: it must be designed for the worst case scenario, as defined by the module position within a TZ branch and the geometric configuration of the branch itself. There are four variations of each module, and the number of unique TZ configurations grows exponentially with the branch length. The aim is to obtain minimum-mass modules with the von Mises equivalent stress constrained under certain design load. The resulting modules are further evaluated also in terms of the typical structural criterion of compliance.

This paper investigated the optimum design of truss structures based on Genetic Algorithms (GA's). With GA's characteristic of running side by side, the overall optimization and feasible operation, the optimum design model of truss structures was established. Elite models were used to assure that the best units of the previous generation had access to the evolution of current generation. Using of non-uniformity mutation brought the obvious mutation at earlier stage and stable mutation in the later stage; this benefited the convergence of units to the best result. In addition, to avoid GA's drawback of converging to local optimization easily, by the limit value of each variable was changed respectively and the genetic operation was performed two times, so the program could work more efficiently and obtained more precise results. Finally, by simulating evolution process of nature biology of a kind self-organize, self-organize, artificial intelligence, this paper established continuous structural optimization model for ten bars cantilever truss, and obtained satisfactory result of optimum design. This paper further explained that structural optimization is practicable with GA's, and provided the theoretic basis for the GA's optimum design of structural engineering.

공간 질의 크기에 대한 근사치를 구하기 위해서는 입력 데이터 공간을 분할한 후 분할된 영역에 대하여 질의 결과 크기를 추정한다. 본 논문에서는 데이터 편재가 심한 공간 데이터에 대한 질의 크기 추정의 문제를 논의한다. 공간을 분할하는 기법으로 관계 데이터베이스에서 많이 사용되는 너비 균등, 높이 균등 히스토그램에 해당되는 면적 균등, 개수 균등 분할에 대한 방법을 검토하고 공간 인덱싱에 기초한 공간 분할방법에 대해서 알아본다. 본 논문에서는 공간 순서화 기법인 힐버트 공간 채움 곡선을 이용한 공간 분할을 제안한다. 제안한 방법과 기존의 방법을 실제 데이터와 인위 데이터를 사용하여 편재된 공간 데이터에 대한 질의 결과 크기의 추정에 대한 정확도를 비교한다. 본 실험에서 힐버트 채움 곡선에 의한 공간 분할이 공간 질의 크기 버켓 수의 변화, 데이터 위치 편재도의 변화, 데이터 크기의 변화에 대해서 기존의 분할 방법보다 질의 결과 크기 추정에 대해서 우수한 성능을 보였다.

이 논문의 연구 목적은 한국 지리학계에서 이루어진 지리공간분석 및 모델링 분야의 연구를 개관하는 것이다. 여기에서 지리공간분석과 모델링이라는 분야는 공간데이터분석 및 공간통계학, 공간최적화, 지오시뮬레이션 관련 연구를 의미하는 것으로 한정한다. 한국의 지리공간분석과 모델링 분야는 컴퓨터 혹은 분석 지도학과 GIS가 도입된 1990년대의 초기 단계를 거쳐, 관련 연구 논문이 쏟아진 2000년대의 성장 단계로 이행했으며, 현재 성숙 단계를 향해 진화하고 있다. 공간데이터분석과 공간통계학 분야에서는 공간적 포인트 패턴 데이터, 에이리어 데이터, 지구통계학적 데이터, 공간적 상호작용 데이터에 대한 다양한 연구가 이루어져 왔다. 공간최적화 분야에서는 시설물 입지문제, 구획문제, 경로설정 문제 등에 대한 모델의 개발 및 적용과 관련된 연구가 활발하게 진행되어 왔다. 지오시뮬레이션 분야에서는 셀룰라 오토마타와 관련된 연구가 대부분을 차지하고 있는 것에 비하여, 에이전트 기반 모델링은 이제 시작단계에 있다. 이 모든 연구 성과들 중 몇몇은 표준 기법의 단순한 적용을 넘어 방법론적 진보를 이끌어 낸 것으로 평가된다.

Long-term unexecuted urban parks will be released from urban planning facilities after 2020, this may result in development of those parks. However, little research have been focused on how to develop those parks considering conservation, development, spatial pattern, and so on. Therefore, in this study, we suggested an optimization planning model that minimizes the fragmentation while maximizing the conservation and development profit using ACO (Ant Colony Optimization). Our study area is Suwon Yeongheung Park, which is long-term unexecuted urban parks and have actual plan for private development in 2019. Using our optimization planning model, we obtained four alternatives(A, B, C, D), all of which showed continuous land use patterns and satisfied the objectives related to conservation and development. Each alternative are optimized based on different weight combinations of conservation, development, and fragmentation, and we can also generated other alternatives immediately by adjusting the weights. This is possible because the planning process in our model is very fast and quantitative. Therefore, we expected our optimization planning model can support "spatial decision making" of various issue and sites.

We consider an efficient parametric estimation method of spatial dependence in weak stationary processes. Spatial dependence is modeled through variogram and correlogram. Most of parametric estimation methods of correlogram use two step method; nonparametric estimation and parametric integration. We bind these two steps into one step by using GEE method instead of least squares type optimization. Our one step method is more efficient statistically and gives a clear interpretation of related concepts used in traditional two step methods.

The objective of this study is the development of size, shape and topology discrete optimum design algorithm which is based on the genetic algorithms. The algorithm can perform both shape and topology optimum designs of trusses. The developed algorithm was implemented in a computer program. For the optimum design, the objective function is the weight of trusses and the constraints are stress and displacement. The basic search method for the optimum design is the genetic algorithms. The algorithm is known to be very efficient for the discrete optimization. The genetic algorithm consists of genetic process and evolutionary process. The genetic process selects the next design points based on the survivability of the current design points. The evolutionary process evaluates the survivability of the design points selected from the genetic process. The efficiency and validity of the developed size, shape and topology discrete optimum design algorithms were verified by applying the algorithm to optimum design examples

This paper discusses a design methodology of cooperative path planning for dynamical multi-agent systems with spatial and temporal constraints. The cooperative behavior of the multi-agent systems is specified in terms of the objective function in an optimization formulation. The path of achieving cooperative tasks is then generated by the optimization formulation constructed based on a differential flatness approach. Three scenarios of multi-agent tasking are proposed at the cooperative task planning framework. Given agent dynamics, both spatial and temporal constraints are considered in the path planning. The path planning algorithm first finds trajectory curves in a lower-dimensional space and then parameterizes the curves by a set of B-spline representations. The coefficients of the B-spline curves are further solved by a sequential quadratic programming solver to achieve the optimization objective and satisfy these constraints. Finally, several illustrative examples of cooperative path/task planning are presented.

In this study, we focus on the feasibility of structural topology optimization for a steel-timber composite beam design of optimally allocating glue-laminated timbers into a web with openings under the condition of given steel flanges. The motivation of this study is to topologically take maximal stiffness harmonizing both tension and compression performance of the steel-timber composite beam and become the eco-frandly timber design for buidling members. As a result of this study, the key web-openings allocation becomes triangle spaces, i.e., empty or no materials, of optimal topologies of both a pure timber plate and a steel flange-web timber plate without web-openings. Several applicable examples verify the effectiveness of topology optimization for steel-timber beams with web-openings.
