This study aims to propose a performance-based design method of a novel passive base isolation system, BIO isolation system, which is inspired by an energy dissipation mechanism called 'sacrificial bonds and hidden length'. Fragility functions utilized in this study are derived, indicating the probability that a component, element, or system will be damaged as a function of a single predictive demand parameter. Based on PEER framework methodology for Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering (PBEE), a systematic design procedure using performance and fragility objectives is presented. Base displacement, superstructure absolute acceleration and story drift ratio are selected as engineering demand parameters. The new design method is then performed on a general two degree-of-freedom (2DOF) structure model and the optimal design under different seismic intensities is obtained through numerical analysis. Seismic performances of the biologically inspired (BIO) isolation system are compared with that of the linear isolation system. To further demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of this method, the BIO isolation system of a 4-storey reinforced concrete building is designed and investigated. The newly designed BIO isolators effectively decrease the superstructure responses and base displacement under selected earthquake excitations, showing good seismic performance.

The structural design problems are acknowledged to be commonly multi-criteria in nature. The various multi-criteria optimization methods are reviewed and the most efficient and easy-to-use Pareto optimal solution methods are applied to structural optimization of a truss and a beam. The result of the study shows that Pareto optimal solution methods can easily be applied to structural optimization with multiple objectives, and the designer can have a choice from those Pareto optimal solutions to meet an appropriate design environment.

Mechanical molding press which is used for transformation process during semiconductor manufacturing process has structural deformations by pressure. If these deformations have over limit range, life of the press itself can be reduced and it will be exerted on a bad effect for quality of the semiconductor. In this research, the main plates and links of a press are analyzed in relation to the structural deformations caused by pressure excluding thermal deformations. After modifying the modeling, the analysis is performed again to determine optimal design of the press, and this design is introduced to ensure that most of the stresses on the main plates are within safe allowable limits. As a result, an optimal design method for the structure is investigated to produce the desired pressure even when the size of the main structure is minimized.

Recently, performance based seismic design (PBSD) methods in numerous forms have been suggested and widely studied as a new concept of seismic design. The PBDSs are far from being practical due to complexity of algorithms resided in the design philosophy In this paper, optimal seismic design method based on displacement coefficient method (DCM) described in FEMA 273 is developed. As an optimizer simple genetic algorithms are used for implementations. In the optimization problem formulated in this paper, strength design criteria, stiffness design criteria, and nonlinear response criteria specified in DCM are included in design constraints. The optimal performance based design(OPBD) method is applied to seismic design of a 9-story two-dimensional steel frame structures.

This paper proposes an optimum, problematic design for structural and control systems, taking a 3-D truss structure as an example. The structure is subjected to initial static loads and time-varying disturbances. The structure is controlled by a state feedback H$_{\infty}$ controller which suppress the effects of disturbances. The design variables are the cross sectional areas of truss members. The structural objective function is the structural weight. For the control objective, we consider two types of performance indices, The first function represents the effect of the initial loads. The second function is the norm of the feedback gain, These objective functions are in conflict with each other but are transformed into one control objective by the weighting method. The structural objectives is treated as the constraint, By introducing the second control objective which considers the magnitude of the feedback gain, we can create a design to model errors.
