The solution of shape design problems based on variational analysis has been approached by using the domain adaptive method. The objective of the structural shape design is to minimize the weight within a bound on local stress measure, or to minimize the maximum local stress measure within a bound on the weight. A derived optimality condition in both design problems requires that the unit mutual energy has constant value along the design boundary. However, the condition for constant stress on the design boundary was used in computation since the computed mutual energy oscillates severely on the boundary. A two step iteration scheme using domain adaptation was presented as a computational method to slove the example designs of elastic structures. It was also shown that remeshing by grid adaptation was effective to reduce oscillatory behavior on the design boundary.

WIM(Weigh-In-Motion) is the system measuring the weight of the vehicle with a high-speed. In the existing WIM system, vehicle weight is measured based on the constant speed and the error ratio has 10%. However, because of measuring the driving pattern, that is abnormal driving pattern which is like the acceleration and down-shift of the drivers, it has the error ratio which is bigger than the real. In order to it reduces the error ratio of WIM system, the improved WIM system needs to find the abnormal driving pattern. In order to reducing the error ratio of these WIM systems, the improved WIM system can find abnormal driving patterns. In this paper, the improved WIM system which analyzes the abnormality driving pattern influencing on the error ratio of WIM system of an existing and minimizes the error span is designed. The improved WIM system has the multi step loop structure of adding the loop sensor to an existing system. In addition, the measure function defined as an intrinsic is improved and the weight measured by the abnormal driving pattern is amended. The analysis of experiment result improved WIM system can know the fact that the error span reduces by 8% less than in the existing the maximum average sampling error 22.98%.

Experiments for a control method that enhances the yield to produce high quality red ginsengs have been performed. In the first steaming process of a series of processes to produce red ginsengs from raw ginsengs, there occur several undesirable defects on ginsengs such as cracks of ginseng body, inside cavity and inside white. These defects lead to deterioration in product qualities. Therefore an improved control method that minimizes these undesirable defects is needed in order to increase the yield of high quality red ginsengs. Until these days, the steaming process control methods such as controlling the steaming temperature and/or pressure have been studied. However, such control methods are not adequate enough to minimize the undesirable defects in steamed ginsengs. On the other hand, in this experiment, we suggest a control method that minimizes the undesirable defects through a weight control of steamed ginsengs, keeping the steaming temperature at $96{\sim}99^{\circ}C$ as usual. Experiments with the weight control show that amount of cracks on the steamed ginseng body can be reduced.

An experimental reactor system was devised and employed to examine catalytic coal gasification. A 4-kw tungsten halogen lamp heater combinded with a graphite sample basket coated with silicon nitride film made rapid heating and cooling possible. Also a small graphite cap on the thermocouple tip which located just beneath the sample basket helped remarkably to read real temperatures. Silicon nitride film on the basket and the cap showed very good protection against the reaction between graphite and oxidant gases during the experiments. The weight of specimen could be continuously measured without disturbance.

카캐리어선에 화물을 선적하기 위해서는 각 화물의 선적 순서와 위치를 결정해야 하며, 이를 선적 계획이라 한다. 선적 계획은 선박의 무게 중심과 공간 손실률, 화물 재취급(re-handling) 횟수를 최소화하도록 수립된다. 최적의 선적 계획을 수립하기 위해서는 여러 후보 선적 계획들을 평가하여 적합도(fitness)가 가장 높은 것을 탐색하여야 한다. 하지만 화물 종류의 수와 도착지의 수가 증가할수록 후보 선적 계획의 수가 증가하게 되어, 탐색 시간과 계산 비용이 커지는 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 탐색 공간이 매우 큰 환경에서 최적의 선적 계획을 효율적으로 탐색하기 위해 유전 알고리즘(genetic algorithm)을 사용한다. 또한, 선박의 무게 중심과 공간 손실률, 화물 재취급 횟수로 목적 함수(objective function)를 구성하여 최적 선적 계획을 탐색한다. 실험 결과, 휴리스틱(heuristic) 방식보다 공간 손실률과 재취급 횟수가 향상되었으며, 특히 재취급 횟수는 70% 감소하였다.

최근 상품의 특성을 고려하지 않은 박스 크기 선택과 박스 공간 내 비효율적인 상품 배치로 인하여 박스의 파손 문제가 지속적으로 제기되고 있다. 이는 적재하고자 하는 상품의 특성을 고려하지 않고 상품을 대략적으로 배치하기 때문이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 면적과 무게와 같은 상품의 특성을 고려한 상품 배치 최적화 알고리즘을 제안하여 공간 배치의 비효율성 문제를 최소화하고자 한다. 제안한 상품 배치 최적화 알고리즘은 검색 트리 (search tree)와 상품 특성 기반 평가 함수(evaluation function)로 구성되어 있다. 상품 특성 기반 평가 함수는 면적, 무게 및 바닥에 닿는 면적을 고려하여 설계되었다.

형상은 3차원이지만 2차원 문제로 이상화하여 해석할 수 있는 탄성구조물의 최적설계를 내연기관 연결봉(Connecting Rod)을 예제로 사용하여 진행하였다. 연결봉은 각 부위에서의 두께는 다르나 평면응력상태에 있다고 가정하였다. 연결봉의 질량을 최소화하기 위해 두께의 분포 및 2차원 모델 경계의 모양을 설계변수로 채택하였고 설계변수 및 응력치에 대한 제한조건을 적용하였다. 설계감도계수 계산을 위해 Variational Formulation, Material Derivative, Adjoint Variable이론을 도입하였고 최적화 방법으로는 Gradient Projection Method를 사용하였다. 최적설계 결과 현재 사용중인 연결봉 무게의 20%를 줄일 수 있음이 밝혀졌다.

In this paper, a narrow-band waveguide channel fitter has been designed and realized for Ku band satellite transponder. Group-delay and amplitude variations of the channel filter have been minimized using a 2-pole reflection type equalizer. The channel filter has been designed to have the 8-pole elliptic response for high frequency selectivity. Dual-mode technique has been adopted for reducing mass and volume of the channel filter and equalizer. The channel filter and equalizer have shown good performance for satellite transponder.

The outbound containers in a container terminal are classified into a few groups by their weights and stacked separately in a yard for easy and efficient handling. In order to maintain the balance of a ship during loading, containers of heavier weight groups should be fetched out of a yard and loaded onto the ship before those of lighter weight groups. However, the weight information used to determine the weight group is usually imprecise. Therefore stacks will actually be filled with mixture of different weight groups and rehandlings are unavoidable during loading operation. This paper presents a method for estimating the number of rehandlings caused by imprecise information and a scheme for generating a simple but efficient slot assignment rule. Experiments have shown that a rule generated by the proposed method can reduce the number of rehandlings by about $20\%$ compared to the traditional slot assignment method which stacks only the containers of the same weight group in a single stack.
