In this paper, we propose the new algorithm which can design on the optimal structure of modular system. This system is composed to the wavelet neural network in order to simplify the structure of modular system and use the time-frequency analysis. We will determine the number of module and node of each sub-system using the proposed algorithm. This algorithm provides the methodology, which we will design optimal structure of modular wavelet neural network through analyzing the character of system. We apply the proposed new structure and algorithm to approximation problem and evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed system and algorithm.

Topology optimization has been evolved into a very efficient conceptual design tool and has been utilized into design engineering processes. Traditional topology optimization has been using homogenization method and optimality criteria method. homogenization method provides relationship equation between structure which includes many holes and stiffness matrix in FEM. Optimality criteria method is used to update design variables while maintaining that volume fraction is uniform. Traditional topology optimization has advantage of good convergence but has disadvantage of too much convergency time. In one way to solve this problem, element removal method using the criterion of an average stress is presented. As the result of examples, it is certified that convergency time is very reduced.

This paper presents a particle-structure collision model for topology optimization, which requires sensitivity analysis. Therefore, a new model that incorporates sensitivity analysis is needed. The proposed particle-structure collision model conducts sensitivity analysis for topology optimization. To evaluate the accuracy of the proposed model, it was applied to a simplified one-dimensional collision problem. Optimization of the final positions of particles using topology optimization through this model confirmed the suitability of the proposed approach. These results demonstrate that it is possible to consider particle-structure collision in topology optimization.

We present a new dual sequential approximate optimization (SAO) algorithm called SD-TDQAO (sequential dual two-point diagonal quadratic approximate optimization). This algorithm solves engineering optimization problems with a nonlinear objective and nonlinear inequality constraints. The two-point diagonal quadratic approximation (TDQA) was originally non-convex and inseparable quadratic approximation in the primal design variable space. To use the dual method, SD-TDQAO uses diagonal quadratic explicit separable approximation; this can easily ensure convexity and separability. An important feature is that the second-derivative terms of the quadratic approximation are approximated by TDQA, which uses only information on the function and the derivative values at two consecutive iteration points. The algorithm will be illustrated using mathematical and topological test problems, and its performance will be compared with that of the MMA algorithm.

Present work deals with a shape optimal design to minimize the weight of the mask-frame used in the process of OLED vapor deposition by the fine metal mask. A design concept for an optimal shape of the frame to increase the stiffness and to reduce the weight is derived using the topology optimization, shape design variables of the frame by adopting slots being defined. An optimal shape is determined by solving the shape optimization problem to minimize the weight of the frame under constraints of the maximum displacement. Weight of the optimal design is 117.6 kg, which is reduced by 138.4 kg(54.1%) of that of the first design, 256 kg.

정보화 사회에서 대량으로 생산된 데이타 코드들은 일관된 설계 원칙없이 필요할 때마다 만들어 사용함으로써 정보의 중복 저장 및 정보교환에 있어서의 변환 작업등으로 인한 경비의 소요가 상당한 실정이다. 이러한 문제점에 대한 해결책으로 본 논문에서는 데이타코드 설계자가 일관성있게 데이타코드를 생성할 수 있도록 도와주는 데이타 코드 생성 지원 전문가 시스템의 설계에 관하여 연구하였다. 불완전 영역 설계를 위한 지식 획득과 표현에 적합한 전문가 시스템 쉘인 GUESS(Guideline Underlying Expert system Shell)를 설계하였다. GUESS는 전문가 시스템을 설계 지원 도구로 사용하는 사용자에게 기존에 작성된 적절한 설계 용례를 선택의 기준으로 제공하며, 유연성 있는 작업 지침들을 규칙으로 포함하고 있다. GUESS는 Prolog언어를 기반으로 한 추론기관과 설계지침을 포함하는 정적지식, 외부 데이타베이스를 연결한 동적 정보, 설계 세부방법을 담고 있는 부가도구들로 구성된다. GUESS/DCG는 데이타 코드 생성을 지원하기 위하여 데이타 코드의 유형과 선택기준 및 설계원리를 정적지식으로 가지며, 이를 경험적으로 탐색하는 추론 기관 및 사용자인 데이타 코드 설계자와 적절한 대화식 접근을 가능하게 하는 설명부분과 대화 인터페이스를 GUESS를 바탕으로 구현한 것이다. 특히 동적 정보의 적절한 이용과 데이타 코드의 통합된 저장, 일관성 있는 운영을 보장하기 위하여 개발중인 데이타 코드 관리시스템과의 인터페이스 부분을 추가하여 기존에 운영되고 있는 데이타 코드의 참고와 호환성, 확장성을 유지하였다. 이 시스템은 데이타 코드 관리시스템에 일관된 생성 수단을 제공하는것 외에도, 각 기관에서 대량으로 작성되는 데이타 코드를 유지, 보수하는 작업에도 큰 기여를 할 것이다.지의 선택작업이 행해지는 경우에 촛점을 맞추었다. 그리하여 다작업장의 휴리스틱에 의거한 작업순서 결정을 위해 우선 BB의 상한을 구하는 연구를 행했다. 이를 위해 우선 단일작업장에서 야기될 수 있는 모든 상황을 고려한 최적 작업순서 결정규칙을 연구했으며, 이의 증명을 위해 이 규칙에 의거했을 때의 보완작업량이 최소가 된다는 것을 밝혔다. 보완작업 계산의 효율성을 제고하기 위해 과부하(violation)개념을 도입하였으며, 작업유형이 증가된 상황에서도 과부하 개념이 보완작업량을 충분히 반영할 수 있음을 밝혔다. 본 연구에서 제시한 최적 작업순서 규칙에 의거했을 때 야기될 수 있는 여러가지 경우의 과부하를 모두 계산했다. 앞에서 개발된 단일작업량의 최적 작업순서 결정규칙을 이용하여 다작업장의 문제를 실험했다. 이 문제는 규모가 매우 크므로 Branch & Bound를 이용하였으며, 각 가지에서 과부하량이 최적인 경우만을 고려하는 휴리스틱을 택하여 실험자료를 이용하여 여러 회 반복실험을 행했다. 그리고 본 연구의 성과를 측정하기 위해 휴리스틱 기법시 소요되는 평균 CPU time 범위에서, 랜덤 작업순서에 따른 작업할당을 반복실험하여 이중 가장 좋은 해와 비교했다. 그러나 앞으로 다작업장 문제를 다룰 때, 각 작업장 작업순서들의 상관관계를 고려하여 보다 개선된 해를 구하기 위한 연구가 요구된다. 또한, 준비작업비용을 발생시키는 작업장의 작업순서결정에 대해서도 연구를 행하여, 보완작업비용과 준비비용을 고려한 GMMAL 작업순서문제를 해결하기 위한 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이다.로 이루어 져야 할 것이다.태를 보다 효율적으로 증진시킬 수 있는 대안이 마련되어져야 한다고 사료된다.$\ulcorner$순응$\lrcorner$의 범위를 벗어나지 않는다. 그렇기 때문에도

In this paper the laminate design parameters are researched to maximize the performance index of a composite pressure vessel. To maximize the performance index, the three design variables that the thickness of each of helical and hoop layers and the length of hoop layer are considered under the assumption of fixed internal space. To optimize the variables, the response surface method is introduced for construction of the surrogate model and the ANOVA(analysis of variance) is performed to evaluate the effects of the variables. The optimization problem is formulated to maximize performance index under the burst pressure constraint. To verify the effectiveness of the research, numerical analyses are performed for the optimum model.

This paper treats the aerodynamic optimization of the blade planform for helicopters. The blade shapes, which should be determined during the threedimensional aerodynamic configuration design step, are defined and are parameterized using the B$\acute{e}$zier curves. This research focuses on the design approaches generally adopted by industries and or research institutes using their own experiences and know-hows for the parameterization and for the definition of design constraints. The hover figure of merit and the equivalent lift-to-drag ratio for the forward flight are used to define the objective function. The resultant nonlinear programming (NLP) problem is solved using the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method. The applications show the present method can design the important planform shapes such as the airfoil distribution, twist and chord variations in the efficient manner.

The conventional reliability based design optimization(RBDO) methods require high computational cost compared with the deterministic design optimization(DO) methods, therefore it is hard to apply directly to large-scaled problems such as an aerodynamic shape design optimization. In this study, to overcome this computational limitation the efficient RBDO procedure with the two-point approximation(TPA) and adjoint sensitivity analysis is proposed, that the computational requirement is nearly the same as DO and the reliability accuracy is good compared with that of RBDO. Using this, the 3-D aerodynamic shape design optimization is performed very efficiently.

The equilibrium network design problem can be formulated as a mathematical Program with variational inequality constraints. We know this problem may have may multiple local solutions due to its inherent characteristics - Nonlinear Objective function and Nonlinear, Nonconvex constraints. Hence, it is difficult to solve for a globally optimal solution. In this paper, we propose a genetic algorithm to obtain a globa1 optimum among many local optima. A Proposed a1gorithm is compared with 4 different solution algorithms for 1 small test network and 1 real-size network. The results of some computational testing are reported.
