본 연구는 컴퓨터 연산을 위한 하드웨어 설계에서 고성능 연산에 사용되는 케리-세이브 가산기 (Carry-save adder) 합성에 관한 연구이다. 기존의 연구에서는, 연산 합성 문제와 합성된 연산의 배치 문제를 두개의 연속된 독립된 두개의 문제로 간주하고 풀었지만, 본 연구에서는 연산 합성 과정에서 연산 배치를 고려한 통합된 방법을 제시하여 전체적인 최적화된 결과를 얻었다. 연결선 상에서의 전력 소모나 지연시간이 점점 더 중요해지는 시스템-온-칩 (system-on-chip) 설계에서 본 연구의 통합적인 설계 방법은 매우 긴요하며 앞으로 효과적으로 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

In this study, cruise missile configuration is optimal designed by using multidisciplinary analysis. Aerodynamic, weight, performance and mission analysis modules are developed by FORTRAN and integrated with framework. Darwin algorithm, a global optimization tool, is used for optimization. In the result of optimal design, gross weight of designed configuration is reduced about 17% than baseline configuration while satisfying design constraint conditions.

In this study, thermally coupled distillation system and conventional two-column process were investigated for extractive distillation. The two processes were simulated and optimized using Aspen plus. Objective function for the optimization was energy consumption and optimization results to reduce energy consumption were used to get guidelines for design and operation for the two extractive distillation processes. Comparison of these two processes showed that thermally coupled distillation system provided better energy efficiency and lower capital cost than conventional distillation system.

In product development, CAD and CAE systems taking part in the design process were individually developed. Furthermore, in product development, different divisions and businesses often have heterogeneous CAD/CAE systems and methods for expressing product data, and addressing this heterogeneity creates additional costs and causes longer development periods. To ensure successful collaboration in the design process, it is therefore imperative that different CAD, CAE, and other related systems be managed in an organic and integrated manner from the initial stages of product development. Therefore, this study suggests an integrated CAD/CAE system including optimization in a more effective and integrated manner but also to support interfacing and the collective use of design and analysis tools. To validate the proposed method, a stiffened plate example is taken as an example. It is found that the proposed method could overcome the bottleneck of CAD and CAE such as transferability of data, though CATIA and ANSYS are used at the moment. Besides, carrying out an optimization process during the CAE process is another essential parts for the structural optimization process.

MDO(Multidisciplinary Design and Optimization) framework can be an integrated environment or a system, which is for synthetic and simultaneous analysis and design optimization in various design fields of aerospace systems. MDO framework has to efficiently use and integrate distributed resources such as various analysis codes, optimization codes, CAD tools, DBMS and etc. in heterogeneous environment, and to provide graphical and easy-to-use user interfaces. Also, its development method can be changed by design objects and development environment. In this paper, we classify MDO frameworks into three types according to the development environments: Single PC-based, PLinda-based and Web Services-based MDO framework. And, we compare and analyze these frameworks.

Distributed operation of overall structural design process, by which product optimization and process parallelization are simultaneously implemented, is presented in this paper. The database-interacted hybrid method, which selectively takes the accustomed procedure of the conventional method in the framework of the optimal design, is utilized here. The staged application of design constraints reduces the computational burden for large complex optimization problems. Two kinds of numeric and graphic processes are simultaneously implemented by concurrent engineering approach in the distributed environment of PC networks. The former is based on finite element optimization method and the latter is represented by AutoCAD using AutoLISP programming language. Numerical computation and database interaction on servers and graphic works on independent clients are communicated through message passing. The numerical experiments for some steel truss models show the validity and usability of the method. This study has sufficient adaptability and expandability, in that it is based on general methodologies and industry standard platforms.

실제적인 문제에서 신뢰성 기반 최적 설계(RBDO)를 구현하기 위해서는 유한요소 모델을 해석하기 위한 상용 프로그램과 설계한 것에 대한 신뢰성을 산정할 수 있는 프로그램을 통합하고 최적화 알고리듬을 적용하여야 최적화를 수행하여야만 한다. 또한 최적화 과정에서 최적상태에서 제약조건이 비활성 영역에서 놓이게 되는 것을 방지하기 위해서 제약조건 최적화 문제를 비제약 조건 최적화 문제로 바꾸어 주는 장애 함수를 사용하여 최적화를 수행하였다. 그리고 이 방법론을 기존의 신뢰성기반 최적화 방법론, 즉 신뢰도지수 접근방법과 목표성능치 접근방법과의 비교를 하였다.

Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) is a new design approach, which aims to reduce the design cycle and the development cost, while improving the performance of the product. In order to develop a framework software where the multidisciplinary design is possible, several methods about the analysis codes integration, the analysis and optimization process management, and the software architecture, are proposed in this study. Centralized DataBase Management System (DBMS) is adopted. Both the Dynamic Link Library(DLL) and the File Interface are suggested and implemented as analysis codes integration methods. To efficiently manage the optimization process and the data flow, the Graphic Programming approach is introduced. The proposed integration methods are verified by two test case examples: Simple house design example and the aircraft wing design problem using three dimensional Panel Code.

제품설계에 관련된 다양한 공학해석분야, 즉 구조해석, 동역학, 열ㆍ유체ㆍ유동해석, 제어, 전자기장해석 등을 동시에 고려하면서 최적의 설계를 결정하는 것을 다분야통합최적설계(Multidisciplinary Design Optimization: MDO) 기술이라 한다. MDO 프레임적 (framework)은 최적화기술, 컴퓨팅기반구조기술, 통합설계기술이 유기적으로 구현된 소프트웨어 복합체계로서, 분산컴퓨팅 기반구조를 통하며 MDO요소 기술들과 기존의 CAD/CAE 도구들을 연계하여 설계 작업을 통합적으로 관리하고 자동화한다. MDO 프레임칙은 이러한 자동화된 통합관리를 통하여 설계도구 간의 데이터 전달과 변환에 소요되는 설계자의 부담을 경감시키며 다분야 전문가가 참여하는 공통 작업 환경을 제공함으로써 설계 효율성을 증진시킨다. 이 글에서는 현재 최적설계신기술연구센터 (iDOT)에서 개발 중인 MDO 프레임웍인 EMDIOS를 소개하기로 한다.
