An approach to the simultaneous optimal design of structure and control system for large free-free flexible beam is presented. The flexible beam is modeled by the finite element method. And the reduced model of small degree of freedom is constructed by use of modal analysis. The tapered beam is considered so that the number of design variables is not dependent on the increasing number of finite elements. The width of several points of tapered beam and control gain are taken as design variables. The shape of beam and control gain are optimized simultaneously for the minimum weight of total structure including control system subject to the constraints of the magnitude of displacement of beam. It is shown that the simultaneous optimal design of structure and control systems is indeed useful.

본 학술기사의 목적은 구조설계를 위한 강력하고도 유용한 도구로서의 최적화기법을 소개하는 것이고 현재의 기술현황을 보여주는 것이다. 최적화의 발전은 유한요소법과 컴퓨터기법 그리고 최적화알고리즘 및 소프트웨어의 동시적인 발전으로부터 이루어진다. 이렇게 됨으로써 사용자가 꼭 최적화 이론가가 될 필요성은 없어질 것이고 모든 공학자는 설계의 질과 생산성을 증진시키기 위해 최적화를 훌륭한 설계기술로서 이용할 수가 있게 될 것이다. 최적화를 위한 두가지 접근방안이 제안되었다. 하나는 최적화 과정중 직접적으로 사용되는 민감도 정보를 제공하기 위해 유한요소해석 프로그램을 수정하는 것이고, 다른 하나는 설계변수와 구조응답들로 구성된 목적함수, 제약조건으로된 최적화문제에 최적화기법을 연결하는 것이다. 가장 좋은 방법은 이 두 접근방법의 조합된 방법인 것 같지만 서로 모순된 것 같기 때문에 분명하지가 않다. 따라서 이 부분은 앞으로 주목을 받을 충분한 가치가 있는 내용이 될 것이다. 원료 부족에 대한 인식의 증대와 부존에너지자원의 빠른 고갈은 경량이면서 효율적이고 경제적인 구조물에 대한 욕구를 증폭시켰다. 따라서 오늘날의 유용하고, 거대한 계산능력을 고려한다면, 최적화기법을 사용하고자 하는 동기는 충분한 것이고 숙련된 공학설계자들에 의해 응용됨으로써 최적화는 경쟁적인 우위를 제공하는 강력한 도구가 될 수 있을 것이다.

This paper provides a unified framework for the joint optimal subchannel and power allocation in multi-hop relay network, where each node in the network has multiple parallel subchannels such as in OFDM or MIMO system. When there are multiple parallel subchannels between nodes, the relay node decides how to match the subchannel at the first hop with the one at the second hop aside from determining the power allocation. Joint optimal design of subchannel matching and power allocation is, in general, known to be very difficult to solve due to the combinatorial nature involved in subchannel matching. Despite this difficulty, we use a simple rearrangement inequality and show that seemingly difficult problems can be efficiently solved. This includes several existing solution methods as special cases. We also provide various design examples to show the effectiveness of the proposed framework.

This study aims to introduce an emerging prescriptive analytics method and suggest its efficient application to a category-based service system. Prescriptive analytics method provides the whole process of analysis and available alternatives as well as the results of analysis. To simulate the process of optimization, large scale journal articles have been collected and categorized by classification scheme. In the process of applying the concept of prescriptive analytics to a real system, we have fused a dynamic automatic-categorization method for large scale documents and intellectual structure analysis method for scholarly subject fields. The test result shows that some optimized scenarios can be generated efficiently and utilized effectively for reorganizing the classification-based service system.

In this study, the multi-objective optimization method is attemped to optimize the hydrological model to estimate the runoff through two hydrological processes. HL-RDHM, a distributed hydrological model that can simultaneously estimate the amount of snowfall and runoff, was used as the distributed hydrological model. The Durango River basin in Colorado, USA, was selected as the watershed. MOSCEM was used as a multi-objective optimization method and parameter calibration and hydrologic model optimization were tried by selecting 5 parameters related to snow melting and 13 parameters related to runoff. Data from 2004 to 2005 were used to optimize the model and verified using data from 2001 to 2004. By optimizing both the amount of snow and the amount of runoff, the RMSE error can be reduced from 7% to 40% of the simulation value based on the initial solution at three SNOTEL points based on the RMSE. The USGS observation point of the outflow is improved about 40%.

This research presents a new maintenance planning method for deteriorating bridges considering simultaneously the minimization of the maintenance cost and maximization of the bridge performance. Optimal maintenance planning is formulated as a multi-objective optimization problem that treats the maintenance cost as well as the bridge performance such as the condition grade of the bridge deck, girder and pier. To effectively address the multi-objective optimization problem and decision making process for the obtained solution set, we apply a genetic algorithm as a numerical searching technique and adopt a preference-based optimization method. A numerical example for a typical 5-span prestressed concrete girder bridge shows that the maintenance cost and the performance of the bridge can be balanced reasonably without severe trade-offs between each objectives.

Multiple response surface optimization (MRSO) aims at finding a setting of input variables which simultaneously optimizes multiple responses. The minimization of mean squared error (MSE), which consists of the squared bias and variance terms, is an effective way to consider the location and dispersion effects of the responses in MRSO. This approach basically assumes that both the terms have an equal weight. However, they need to be weighted differently depending on a problem situation, for example, in case that they are not of the same importance. This paper proposes to use the weighted MSE (WMSE) criterion instead of the MSE criterion in MRSO to consider an unequal weight situation.
