Using the genetic algorithm, the optimal-design technique of the Nielsen arch bridge was proposed in this paper. The design parameters were the arch-rise ratio and the steel weight ratio of the Nielsen arch bridge, and optimal-design techniques were utilized to analyze the behavior of the bridge. The optimal parameter values were determined for the estimated optimal level. The parameter determination requires the standardization of the safety, utility, and economic concepts as the critical factors of a structure. For this, a genetic algorithm was used, whose global-optimal-solution search ability is superior to the optimization technique, and whose object function in the optimal design is the total weight of the structure. The constraints for the optimization were displacement, internal stress, and time and space. The structural analysis was a combination of the small displacement theory and the genetic algorithm, and the runtime was reduced for parallel processing. The optimal-design technique that was developed in this study was employed and deduced using the optimal arch-rise ratio, steel weight ratio, and optimal-design domain. The optimal-design technique was presented so it could be applied in the industry.

현재까지 실험을 설계하는 방법은 설계자에 의해서 시행착오(trial and error) 방식으로 하는 것이 대부분 이였으나 이 방법은 경험상으로 알고 있으며, 유효하다고 생각되는 조건하에서 여러 가지 경우의 것을 시뮬레이션 해보고 그 중에 가장 타당하다고 생각되는 것으로 결정하게 된다. 이들은 다소 경험적인 것이라 할 수 있다. 하지만 실험계획법(Design of Experiments)은 특성에 영향을 미치는 여러 가지 인자를 선정하기 위해, 또 이들의 관계를 알아보기 위한 실험을 실시하여 제품의 최적 제조조건을 경제적으로 찾아내는 기법이다. 본 연구에서는 실험계획법을 사용하여 유량을 최적화하는 요인을 선정, 얻어진 데이터를 통계적 방법으로 분석하여 최적의 조건을 나타내었다.

환봉소재의 정밀절단을 위한 고속 환봉절단 공정에 있어서 절단금형은 공정중 막대한 타격력을 받기 때문에 금형의 파손방지 및 내구성향상을 위한 금형설계 기술이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 이같은 절단금형의 최적설계를 위해선 타격시 램이 금형에 가하는 충격력에 대한 예측이 필수적이므로 본 연구에서는 환봉절단 공정에 대한 동역학적 해석을 통해 충격력과 접촉시간을 이론적으로 구하였으며 이를 기존의 이론값과 비교한 결과, 보다 정확한 충격력의 예측이 가능하였다. 그리고 본 이론을 국내 최초로 개발된 환봉절단 장치에 적용하여 타격속도, 절단저항, 램과 금형의 하중비 등의 인자들과 충격력 사이의 관계를 밝혀냄으로써, 향후 최적금형 설계를 위한 데이터 베이스를 구축하였다.

In this paper, an integrated optimum design method for hybrid structural control system is studied. Not only the distribution and the capacity of passive devices but also those of active devices, and the controllers are treated as design variables in the proposed approach. Multi-objective optimization problem is formulated by using the preference function, which is newly defined in this study. Genetic algorithm is adopted as a numerical searching technique in order to simultaneously find the optimum solutions. The validity of the proposed method is verified through the example designs and the numerical simulations of an earthquake excited multi-degrees-of-freedom structure.

This paper optimized the design parameters of the offset strip fin in a heat exchanger. To decrease the pressure drop and increase heat transfer, the performance factors such as j/f, $j/f^{1/3}$, and JF, which could be used to estimate the pressure drop and heat transfer simultaneously, were employed as the criteria for optimization. In the present study, STDQAO, PQRSM, and MGA were used for solving the constrained nonlinear optimization problem. The JF factor and heat transfer performance of the optimized offset-strip fin were greater than those of the reference offset-strip fin by 36% and 280%, respectively.

To investigate the optimum design conditions of Stirling Engines at the preliminary design stage, comparative study between adoabatoc analysis based on an approximate analytical solution to the Ideal Adiabatic Model and the existing isothermal analysis has been carried out. The optimum phase angle obtained from adiabatic analysis to achieve the maximum work with given combination of design parameters is greater than that from isothermal analysis, while the optimum swept volume ratio is smaller. Effect of variation in the temperature ratio on the work parameter is proved to be stronger in adiabatic analysis. On the contrary, the work parameter by adiabatic analysis is less sensitive to a change in the dead volume ratio. Especially in adiabatic analysis there exists the optimum dead volume ratio maximizing the work parameter, which may provide a lower limit of it. Considering that the adiabatic model is more reasonable, signifiant differences between two methods lead to the conclusion that adiabatic analysis is preferable to isothermal one for the preliminary design of Stirling Engines.

A gerotor can be manufactured in a miniature size because it has a high discharge per cycle and a simple structure. Gerotors are widely used for the lubrication oil of an engine and as the hydraulic source of an automatic transmission. Recently, improvements in fuel efficiency and noise reduction have come to the fore in the automobile industry, and it has been necessary for better fuel efficiency to continuously improve the flow rate and noise of internal gear pumps through the optimal design of the gerotor and port shape. In this study, gerotors were generated based on the equations derived for a lobe shape with multiple profiles (ellipse 1-elliptical involute-ellipse 2). The ranges of the design parameters were considered to prevent a cusp and loop. In addition, the optimal lobe shape was obtained by determining the influence of the lobe shape on the performances (flow rate, irregularity, etc.), according to the values of the design parameters.

Recently, the development of new structural model in fixed partial denture system is required to be started from the conceptual design with low cost, high performance and quality. In this point, a FEM based design of partial denture is used to investigate stress distribution on the durable shape. In this paper, the structural performances of partial dentures were analyzed under three biting forces. The periodontal embedding model is introduced on behalf of the detailed supporting tissue, which is composed of dentin, cortical bone, cancellous bone and periodontal ligament. Using topology optimization, the optimal reinforcement layout of connector was obtained and the detail shape in the fixed partial denture was designed.
