Stack filters are a class of digital nonlinear filters with excellent properties for signal restoration. Unfortunately, present algorithms for designing stack filters with large window size are limited in applications by their computational overhead and serial nature. In this paper, new, highly-parallel algorithm is developed for determining a stack filter which minimizes the mean absolute error criterion. It retains the iterative nature of the present adaptive algorithm, but significantly reduces the number of required to converge to an optima filter. A proof is also give that the proposed algorithm converges to an optimal stack filter.

In this research, design optimization of an aircraft wing has been performed using the fully automated Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) framework, which integrates aerodynamic and structural analysis considering nonlinear structural behavior. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) mesh is generated automatically from parametric modeling using CATIA and Gambit, followed by an automatic flow analysis using FLUENT. A computational structure mechanics (CSM) mesh is generated automatically by the parametric method of the CATIA and visual basic script of NASTRAN-FX. The structure is analyzed by ABAQUS. Interaction between CFD and CSM is performed by a fully automated system. The Response Surface Method (RSM) is applied for optimization, helping to achieve the global optimum. The optimization design result demonstrates successful application of the fully automated MDO framework.

퍼지모델은 주로 경험적 방법에 의해 추출되기 때문에 보다 구체적이고 체계적인 방법에 의한 동정 및 최적화 될 필요성이 요구된다. 일반적으로, 정보 granules는 근접성, 유사성 또는 기능성 등에 인하여 서로 결합되는 요소(특히, 수치 데이터)의 실체이다. 본 논문에서는 비선형 시스템의 퍼지모델을 위해 정보 granules에 의한 퍼지 관계 기반 퍼지 추론 시스템을 최적 설계한다. 제안된 퍼지 모델은 정보 데이터의 특성을 살리기 위해 HCtl 클러스터링 방법에 의한 중심값을 이용하여 모든 입력변수가 상호 관계한 전반부/후반부 구조 및 파라미터 동정을 시행한다. 두 가지 형태의 퍼지 추론 방법은 간략 추론과 선형추론에 의해 수행되고 삼각형 멤버쉽 함수를 사용한다. 구축된 정보 granule 기반 퍼지 모델은 유전자 알고리즘을 이용하여 전반부 파라미터를 최적으로 동정한다. 그리고 학습 및 테스트 데이터의 성능 결과의 상호균형을 얻기 위한 하중값을 가진 성능지수를 사용하여 근사화와 예측성능의 향상을 꾀하며, 기존 문헌과의 성능비교를 통해 제안된 퍼지 모델을 평가한다.

This study is conserned for the optimum design of reinforced concrete slab-beam-column structures with multi-storys and multi-bays by Direct Method. Flexural and shear strength, sectional size, and steel ratio etc., were considered as the design-constraints and the cost function was taken as to objective function. They became high degree nonlinear problems. Using SLP as an analytical method of nonlinear optimal problems, an optimal algorithm was developed in this study and the algorithm was applied to the optimization of reinforced concrete structure system of 5 storys. The result converged to a optimal solution with 3 to 5 iterations, and proved that economical design could be possible when compared with conventional designs.

A complex system involves a large number of design variables, and its operation is non-linear. To explore the characteristics in its design space, a Kriging meta-model can be utilized; this model has replaced expensive computational analysis that was performed in traditional parametric design optimization. In this study, a Kriging meta-model with a computational orthogonal array for the design of experiments was developed to optimize the fatigue life of a turbine blade whose behavior under cyclic rotational loads is significantly non-linear. The results not only show that the maximum fatigue life is improved but also indicate that the accuracy of computational analysis is achieved. In addition, the robustness of the results obtained by six-sigma optimization can be verified by comparison with the results obtained by performing Monte Carlo simulations.

In this study, numerical analyses were used to investigate the performance of a coupling control method for the dynamic responses of adjacent buildings under multiple hazards. Numerical simulations were done using the earthquake loads of regions with strong seismicity in Los Angeles, California, and the wind loads in regions with strong winds in Charleston, North Carolina. The artificial earthquake and wind loads were made using SIMQKE and Kaimal Spectrum based on ASCE 7-10. Ten-story and twenty-story adjacent buildings were selected as example structures, and nonlinear hysteretic dampers were used to connect them. The Bouc-Wen model was used to model the nonlinear hysteretic dampers. The results show that the proposed control method could effectively reduce the dynamic responses, and the optimal control designs were different for each hazard.

In the current design process for the lower arm used in automobile parts, an optimal solution of its various design variables should be found through exploration of the design space approximated using the response surface model formulated with a first- or second-order polynomial equation. In this study, a multi-level computational DOE (design of experiment) was carried out to explore the design space showing nonlinear behavior, in terms of factors such as the total weight and applied stress of the lower arm, where a fractional-factorial orthogonal array based on the artificial neural network model was introduced. In addition, the tolerance robustness of the optimal solution was estimated using a tolerance optimization with six sigma constraints, taking into account the tolerances occurring in the design variables.
