In order to numerically evaluate automotive hydro-formed DP-steel tubes on crash performance considering welding heat effects, the finite element simulations of crash behavior were performed for hydro-formed tubes with and without heat treatment effects. This work involves the mechanical characterization of the base material and the HAG-welded zone as well as finite element simulations of the crash test of hydro-formed tubes with welded brackets and hydro-forming of tubes. The welding heat effects on the crash performance are evaluated in efforts to improve the process optimization procedure of the engine cradle in the design stage. In particular, FEM simulations on indentations have been performed and experimentally verified for material properties of weld zone and heat affected zone.

Shortest path problems are among the most studied network flow optimization problems, with interesting applications in various fields. One such field is the route determination service, where various kinds of shortest path problems need to be solved in location-based service. Our research aim is to propose a route technique in real-time location-based service (LBS) environments according to user's route preferences such as shortest, fastest, easiest and so on. Turn costs modeling and computation are important procedures in route planning. We propose a new rest modeling method for turn costs which are traditionally attached to edges in a graph. Our proposed route determination technique also has an advantage that can provide service interoperability by implementing XML web service for the OpenLS route determination service specification.

In this paper, rotor design modification of a novel proposed machine termed the Axial Flux Doubly Fed Reluctance Machine (AF-BDFRM) is studied. The main potential advantage of AF-BDFRM is that it has larger torque and power density compared to radial flux-BDFRM. However, with the general rotor pole shape, this machine output back EMF has high THD % and high cogging torque. This paper studies the rotor design modification in the proposed AF-BDFRM to reduce the THD % in inducedd back EMF and cogging torque. Also the transient 3D finite element analysis (FEA) optimization of initial design is presented.

A new method is presented to design RF filters without the Similarity Transform of their coupling coefficient matrix as circuit parameters which is very tedious due to pivoting and deciding rotation angles needed during the iterations. The transfer function of a filter is directly used for the design and its desired form is derived by the optimized rational-function fitting technique. A 3rd order Coaxial Lowpass filter and an 8th order dual-mode elliptic integral function response filter are taken as an example to validate the proposed method.

In this paper, semi-infinite constrained programming, a class of constrained nonsmooth optimization problems, are transformed into unconstrained nonsmooth convex programs under the help of exact penalty function. The unconstrained objective function which owns the primal-dual gradient structure has connection with $\mathcal{VU}$-space decomposition. Then a $\mathcal{VU}$-space decomposition method can be applied for solving this unconstrained programs. Finally, the superlinear convergence algorithm is proved under certain assumption.

This paper considers an integrated inventory-distribution system with a fleet of heterogeneous vehicles employed where a single warehouse distributes a single type of products to many spatially distributed retailers to satisfy their dynamic demands. The problem is to determine order planning at the warehouse, and also vehicle schedules and delivery quantities for the retailers with the objective of minimizing the sum of ordering cost at the warehouse, inventory holding cost at both the warehouse and retailers, and transportation cost. For the problem, we give a Mixed Integer Programming formulation and develop a Lagrangean heuristic procedure for computing lower and upper bounds on the optimal solution value. The Lagrangean dual problem of finding the best Lagrangrean lower bound is solved by subgradient optimization. Computational experiments on randomly generated test problems showed that the suggested algorithm gives relatively good solutions in a reasonable amount of computation time.

In this study, the isolation system for multi-mechanism HIF (high impulsive force) device has been investigated. For this purpose, parameter optimization process has been performed based on the simplified isolation system model under constraints of moving displacement and transmitted force. The design parameters for multi-mechanism HIF device have been derived with respect to HIF system I and HIF system II, respectively. In order to implement the dynamic absorbing system, the dual stage hydro-pneumatic damper and magnetorheological damper with semi-active control scheme are considered. Finally, the performance of the designed prototype isolation system has been evaluated by experimental works under actual operating conditions.

There has been much advancement in the field of aerial cameras for geographical features with the help of drones, image processing power and computer aided optical programs. In this study, we propose a new optical lens design technique which minimizes the amount of ‘the third order Seidel aberration’ for enhancing MTF. In addition, we suggest a new optical lens design which stabilizes the mass-production yield through R.S.M and has robustness secure through the Taguchi method. Eventually, the image processing algorithm of stereo matching is implemented in order to evaluate whether the proposed lens design result meets adequate specifications for the use of dual aerial photographs or not. This paper provides good guidance for the optical design by development of experiments.

It is a complex process to analyze power system voltage stability problems with all of the dynamics of a system, because a large power network system sophisticatedly consists of generators, lines, loads and so forth. So we considered the dynamics of loads so as to analyze voltage stability method- by carrying out an analysis of steady state voltage stability and dynamic voltage stability simultaneously. To perform a steady state voltage stability program in advance makes it possible to cut down on laborious calculations so that an analysis of dynamic voltage stability becomes concise. The validity and efficiency of the method presented in this paper were verified by applying the IEEE 14 bus system.
