J. Kennedy and R. Eberhart first introduced the concept called as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). They applied it to optimize continuous nonlinear functions and demonstrated the effectiveness of the algorithm. Since then a considerable number of researchers have attempted to apply this concept to a variety of optimization problems and obtained reasonable results. In PSO, individuals communicate and exchange simple information with each other. The information among individuals is communicated in the swarm and the information between individuals and their swarm is also shared. Finally, the swarm approaches the optimal behavior. It is reported that reasonable approximate solutions of various types of test functions are obtained by employing PSO. However, if more precise solutions are required, additional algorithms and/or hybrid algorithms would be necessary. For example, the heading vector of the swarm can be slightly adjusted under some conditions. In this paper, we propose a hybrid algorithm to obtain more precise solutions. In the algorithm, when a better solution in the swarm is found, the neighborhood of a certain distance from the solution is searched. Then, the algorithm returns to the original PSO search. By this hybrid method, we can obtain considerably better solutions in less iterations than by the standard PSO method.

본 연구에서는 Biot의 선형압밀이론에 근거한 2차원 압밀문제의 근사해를 구하기 위한 경계요소법을 제시한다. 먼저 선형 압밀문제의 기초미분방정식의 시간의존성을 제거하기 위하여 시간에 대한 Laplace변환을 적용시키고, 변환공간에서의 미분방정식을 대상으로 정식화를 한다. 변환공간에서의 변위와 간극수압에 대한 경계적분방정식계를 유도하고, 변환공간에서의 연성문제에 대한 기본해를 구체적으로 보인다. 변환공간에서의 해를 실공간의 해로 변환하기 위하여 Hosono의 수직 Laplace역변환법을 적용하였으며, 해석예로서 2차원 반무한 지반의 국소재하에 의한 압밀문제를 해석예로 선택하였고, 암밀해와 비교하여 제안해법의 적용성 및 타당성을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 벽걸이 모니터 브라켓 암의 다중목적 근사최적설계를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 브라켓 암의 자유도를 고려하여 평면내의 회전 각도를 선정해 응력과 처짐량이 크게 발생하는 경우에 대한 최적화 문제를 정식화 하였다. 직교배열표와 반응표면법을 사용하여 평균 및 파라미터 분석을 통해 성능지수에 대한 설계변수 민감도를 확인하였으며, 중심합성계획법과 D-최적 계획법을 사용하여 목적함수와 제한조건함수에 대하여 반응표면 근사모델을 생성하고 $R^2$ 값을 통해 정확도를 평가하였다. 이를 비지배 분류 유전알고리즘에 적용하여 최적화를 수행하고 유한요소해석을 통해 검증하였다. 또한, 중심합성 계획법과 D-최적 계획법을 이용한 최적해를 비교 분석하였다.

A significant development has been made on a new fatigue damage model applicable to Gaussian wide band stress response spectra using numerical approximation methods such as data processing, time simulation, and regression analysis. So far, most of the alternative approximate models provide slightly underestimated or overestimated damage results compared with the rain-flow counting distribution. A more reliable approximate model that can minimize the damage differences between exact and approximate solutions is required for the practical design of ships and offshore structures. The present paper provides a detailed description of the development process of a new fatigue damage model. Based on the principle of the Gaussian wide band model, this study aims to develop the best approximate fatigue damage model. To obtain highly accurate damage distributions, this study deals with some prominent research findings, i.e., the moment of rain-flow range distribution MRR(n), the special bandwidth parameter μk, the empirical closed form model consisting of four probability density functions, and the correction factor QC. Sequential prerequisite data processes, such as creation of various stress spectra, extraction of stress time history, and the rain-flow counting stress process, are conducted so that these research findings provide much better results. Through comparison studies, the proposed model shows more reliable and accurate damage distributions, very close to those of the rain-flow counting solution. Several significant achievements and findings obtained from this study are suggested. Further work is needed to apply the new developed model to crack growth prediction under a random stress process in view of the engineering critical assessment of offshore structures. The present developed formulation and procedure also need to be extended to non-Gaussian wide band processes.

We introduce an extrapolated higher order characteristic finite element method to construct approximate solutions of a Sobolev equation with a convection term. The higher order of convergence in both the temporal direction and the spatial direction in $L^2$ normed space is established and some computational results to support our theoretical results are presented.

In this paper, we approximate a fuzzy almost cubic function by a cubic function in a fuzzy sense. Indeed, we investigate solutions of the following cubic functional equation $$3f(kx+y)+3f(kx-y)-kf(x+2y)-2kf(x-y)-3k(2k^2-1)f(x)+6kf(y)=0$$. and prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability for it in fuzzy Banach spaces.

Finite difference schemes are considered for a $Ca^{2+}$ diffusion equations, which discribe $Ca^{2+}$ buffering by using stationary and mobile buffers. Stability and $L^\infty$ error estimates of approximate solutions for the corresponding schemes are obtained using the extended Lax-Richtmyer equivalence theorem.

This paper deals with the regularity properties for a class of semilinear integrodifferential functional differential equations. It is shown the relation between the reachable set of the semilinear system and that of its corresponding linear system. We also show that the Lipschitz continuity and the uniform boundedness of the nonlinear term can be considerably weakened. Finally, a simple example to which our main result can be applied is given.
