This paper concentrates on the development of simplified and effective algorithm for optimum reinforced concrete(RC) member design. After constructing the data base of predetermined RC sections which are arranged in the order of increasing resistant capacity, the relationship between the section identification numbers and resistant capacities of sections is estabilished by regression and it can be used to obtain the initial solution(section) which satisfies the design constraints imposed. Assuming that there exists the optimum solution. The optimization of the entire structure is accomplished through the individual mumber optimization.

본 논문에서는 지능형 작동기의 효율적 설계와 특성예측을 위하여 기계적 상사 모델을 개발하고, 작동기의 최적작동 조건을 고찰한다. 먼저 지능형 작동기의 기계적 상사는 단순한 2자유도 스프링-메스-뎀퍼 시스템으로 등가 시스템을 구현하였다. 이 때 스프링 강성계수는 시스템의 강성 또는 전기-기계 연성계수 등으로 상사되며, 전기회로 구성품 등은 질량, 뎀퍼 등으로 상사되어진다. 단순화된 기계적 상사모델을 이용하여 작동조건에서의 전기회로 구성품의 튜닝을 최적화 할 수 있다. 특히 작동기의 공진주파수에서의 특성을 고려하여 최적조건을 도출함으로써 그 성능을 극대화 할 수 있다.

This study focus on the development of optimization techniques to prestressed concrete box girder bridges erected in cantilever construction method. Optimization techniques are used to find optimal cross sections, i.e., those having minimum cost for such bridges. The problem is treated as an unconstrained nonlinear programming problem and the program has been developed to compute the objective function and optimal value. Numerical results are verified by the data of existing bridges.

Code is a set of words. If, for any pair of words in the code, one is not prefix of another, the code is called "Prefix(-Free) Code". The prefix coding problem is, given n, to find an optimal code with the minimum-sum of lengths of n words. As a special case of this, we present a method to find, given language L in some specific classes of regular languages, an optimal code among prefix codes in L. We also show how the structure of optimal codes varies as n grows, using trees.

기계 및 건축, 토목 분야의 설계나 연구 부문에서 널리 쓰이고 있는 구조해석에는 유한요소해석 기법이 보편화된 실정이며, 간단한 구조물을 해석하기에도 수많은 계산작업을 필요로 하므로 수작업으로는 그 해석 결과를 얻어내기란 거의 불가능하며, 고속의 컴퓨터를 이용하여야만 그 결과를 얻을 수 있게 되었다. 이렇듯이 컴퓨터가 없는 구조해석은 상상할 수 없지만 그렇다고 초고속의 계산능력을 갖춘 소위 Super computer만 갖추고 있다고 해서 구조해석을 원활히 할 수 있느냐 하면 그것도 반드시 옳다고 할 수는 없다. 특히 요즘과 같이 각기 업무 특성에 맞는 컴퓨터들이 속속 개발되어 나오는 환경을 고려할 때 최적의 시스템 구성을 위해서는 과거에서 현재까지의 컴퓨터 이용추세를 돌이켜보고 앞으로의 발전방향을 예측해 보는 것은 의미있는 일이라고 하겠다.

The object of this study is form finding, stress-strain analysis and cutting pattern analysis of membrane structures under the following assumptions : (1) material is linearly elastic (2) stress state is plane stress. The cable and membrane structures undergo large deformation because of its highly flexibility, therefore, we must take account of its geometric nonlinearity. The analysis procedure is consisted of three steps considering geometric nonlinearity unlike any other structures. First step is the form finding analysis to determine the initial equilibrium shape. Second step is the stress-strain analysis to investigate the behaviors of structures under various external loads. Once a stationary shape has been fount a cutting pattern based on the form finding analysis may be generated for manufacturing procedure. In this paper, form finding, stress-strain analysis and cutting pattern analysis is carried out for applying to Seoguipo worldcup soccer stadium roof structures and optimal cutting pattern analysis technique is proposed.

In this paper, a practical procedure for the design optimization of tubular-steel-pile-type substructure in a mooring dolphin is investigated and numerically evaluated. In the finite-dimensional optimum design formulation, geometry and cross-sectional shapes of classified group of piles are identified as design variables. The design objective is the total weight of piles, and the design constraints on stresses, penetration depth, and size limits are imposed. Several classes of practical design alternatives are sought through the linking and fixing of design variables. Among the available numerical optimization codes, both PLBA program and DNCONF subroutine in IMSL library are used. They are based on SQP algorithm and relatively easy to get. A dolphin of numerical example has 20 tubular steel piles, 4 vertical and 16 inclined. Optimum designs for different cases are successfully obtained for the practical purpose.

For the anchor bolts and brackets that fix the stone wall, which is an external finishing material, it is necessary to maintain the performance required for the mechanical structure from the initial design stage and secure high durability. For this, the design and safety evaluation in consideration of the load conditions are necessary, so the structural analysis applying the finite element analysis technique was performed as a method to verify durability. As a result of structural analysis for various shapes for optimal design, a reinforcing structure was added to alleviate the maximum stress generated at the rear part of the bracket in contact with the bolt. In addition, a reinforcing plate was additionally attached to the bracket to relieve the stress concentration of the L-shaped bracket to make the stress distribution uniform, so that the safety factor satisfies the standard conditions. In addition, the fatigue life analysis by cyclic load was performed, and the fatigue safety factor was analyzed. As a result, the durability was obtained.

For the purpose of optimum design of reinforced concrete structures, pre-determined section database of column and beam are constructed and arranged in order of the resisting capacity. Then, regression equations representing the relation between section number and section resisting capacity are derived. In advance, effective optimization algorithms which search optimized solution quickly using direct search method from these database are proposed. In practice, from the fact that engineers conduct member design close to capacity optimization rather than cost optimization, both capacity and cost optimization using proposed algorithms are performed, and the review for the obtained results are followed. Moreover, the investigation for the applicability and effectiveness of the Introduced design procedure is conducted through correlation study for example structures. Because of no restriction in constructing objective functions with very simple optimization processes and fast convergence, the introduced method can effectively be used in the preliminary design stage. Especially, selected solutions from database are directly applicable in practice because these sections already satisfy all the requirements in design codes and practical restrictions.

In this paper, analysis and measurement on coaxial connecter designed for packaging of microwave and micro strip transition structure are carried out. Even though researches on optimization of various kinds of transition structures have been conducted actively; however, the range of the application was very limited since they have been focused mainly on improvement of specific transmission line. Therefore, in this paper, we tried to analyze three kinds of substrates of which dielectric constants are 2,5,10 and are commercially used nowadays. Besides, we have confirmed reliability of FEM analysis, extracted equivalent circuit of transition area, found out factors determining extracted physical values, and made proof of electromagnetic variations for optimum characteristics. In addition, transition structure showing optimized characteristics on the basis of dielectric and microstrip structure was proposed. We reckon that the result of this research will apply with effect to transition design in microwave packaging development.
