The growth-strain method was used for shape optimization, which carries out the optimization by distributing uniformly the distributed parameter such as von Mises stress and shear strain energy density. Shape optimization is carried out by iteration of stress analysis and growth strain analysis. In this study, the effect of growth ratio in the method was investigated and then the range of the adequate value of the growth ratio was determined. Also the growth-strain method was improved by applying the linear PID control theory in order to control volume required by a designer. Finally, an automatic shape optimization system was built up by the improved growth-strain method with a commercial software using finite element method. The effectiveness and practicability of the developed shape optimization system was verified by some examples.

This study presents an approach of tidal farming optimization using a numerical modelling method to simulate tidal energy extraction for 1MW scale tidal stream devices around Jangjuk-sudo, South Korea. The utility of the approach in this research is demonstrated by optimizing the tidal farm in an idealized scenario and a more realistic case with three scenarios of 28-turbine centered tidal array (named A, B and C layouts) inside the Jangjuk-sudo. In addition, the numerical method also provides a pre-processing calculation helps the researchers to quickly determine where the best resource site is located when considering the position of the tidal stream turbine farm. From the simulation results, it is clearly seen that the net energy (or wake energy yield which includes the impacts of wake effects on power generation) extracted from the layout A is virtually equal to the estimates of speed-up energy yield (or the gross energy which is the sum of energy yield of each turbine without wake effects), up to 30.3 GWh/year.

As the occupant safety receives more attention from automobile industries. protection systems have been developed quite well. Developed protection systems must be evaluated through real tests in crash environment Since the real tests are extremely expensive. computer simulations are replaced for some prediction of the real test In the computer simulation. it is very crucial to express the real environment precisely in the modeling precess. The energy absorbing(EA) steering system has a very important rote in vehicle crashes because the occupant can hit the system directly. In this study. the EA steering system is modeled precisely. analyzed for the safely and designed by an optimization technology. First. the EA steering system is disassembled by parts and modeled by segments and joints. The segments are modeled by rigid bodies in motion and they have resistances in contact. Spring-damper elements and force-deflection curves are utilized to represent the joints. The body block test is cal lied out to validate. the modeling. When the test results are not enough for the detailed modeling. the differences between tests and simulations are minimized to calculate unknown parameters using optimization. The established model is applied to a crash simulation of a full-car model and tuned again. After the modeling is finished. components of the steering system are designed by an optimization algorithm. In the optimization process. the compound injury of a driver is defined and minimized to determine the chracteristics of the components. The second. order approximation algorithm has been adopted for the optimization.

This paper reports on an investigation (using RSM with commercial CFD software) of the performance characteristics of the impeller in a centrifugal pump. Geometric parameters of vane plane development were defined with the meridional shape and frontal view of the impeller. The parameters are focused on the blade-angle distributions through the impeller in a fixed meridional geometry. For screening, a $2^k$ factorial design has been used to identify the important design parameters. The objective functions are defined as the total head rise and the total efficiency at the design flow-rate. From the $2^k$ factorial design results, it is found that the incidence angles and the exit blade angle are the most important parameters influencing the performance of the pump.

In this paper, we intend to study the energy efficiency (EE) optimization for a simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT)-based distributed antenna system (DAS). Firstly, a DAS-SWIPT model is formulated, whose goal is to maximize the EE of the system. Next, we propose an optimal resource allocation method by means of the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition as well as an ergodic method. Considering the complexity of the ergodic method, a suboptimal scheme with lower complexity is proposed by using an antenna selection scheme. Numerical results illustrate that our suboptimal method is able to achieve satisfactory performance of EE similar to an optimal one while reducing the calculation complexity.

Multipath Transport Control Protocol (MPTCP) is a transport layer protocol that enables multiple TCP connections across various paths. Due to path heterogeneity, it incurs more energy in a multipath wireless network. Recent work presents a set of approaches described in the literature to support systems for energy consumption in terms of their performance, objectives and address issues based on their design goals. The existing solutions mainly focused on the primary system model but did not discourse the overall system performance. Therefore, this paper capitalized a novel stochastically multipath scheduling scheme for data and path capacity variations. The scheduling problem formulated over MPTCP as a stochastic optimization, whose objective is to maximize the average throughput, avoid network congestion, and makes the system more stable with greater energy efficiency. To design an online algorithm that solves the formulated problem over the time slots by considering its mindrift-plus penalty form. The proposed solution was examined under extensive simulations to evaluate the anticipated stochastic optimized MPTCP (so-MPTCP) outcome and compared it with the base MPTCP and the energy-efficient MPTCP (eMPTCP) protocols. Simulation results justify the proposed algorithm's credibility by achieving remarkable improvements, higher throughput, reduced energy costs, and lower-end to end delay.

자율운항선박의 기반은 추진시스템의 안정성이 중요하며, 추진체계의 안정성을 위하여 다중 발전 체계 및 추진체계를 갖추어야한다. 기존 선박에서는 안정성을 위하여 높은 발전 용량을 산정하며, 그 결과 저부하 운전으로 인한 경제성 하락을 야기한다. 이를 해결하기 위해서는 전력체계의 최적화를 통하여 발전 체계의 경량화와 효율의 증가가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 전기추진선박용 OPMS(Optimization Power Management System)를 구축한다. OPMS는 하이브리드형 발전시스템, 에너지저장시스템, 부하제어시스템으로 구성된다. 발전시스템은 이중연료엔진, 에너지저장시스템은 배터리, 부하제어시스템은 추진 부하, 상용 부하, 불규칙 부하, 화물 기기 관련 부하, 갑판 부하로 구성된다. 각 시스템별 기기들의 특성에 대하여 모델링하여 전력체계를 구축하였다. 실험을 위하여 선박 운용에 따른 시나리오를 작성하고 안정성 및 경제성을 기존의 전기추진선박과 비교하였다. 실험의 결과 발전기의 비교적 적은 시간 투입으로 같은 전력량을 공급함으로써 선박의 LNG 1.3%, Main Fuel 0.3%, Pilot Fuel 35.1%의 연료소모량 감소를 통하여 경제성 및 안정성을 확인하였다.

Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC) are the most appropriate for energy source of small robot applications. PEMFC has superior in power density and thermodynamic efficiency as compared with the Direct Methaol Fuel Cell (DMFC). Furthermore, PEMFC has lighter weight and smaller size than DMFC which are very important factors as small robot power system. The most significant factor of mobile robots is weight which relates closely with energy consumption and robot operation. This research tried to find optimum specifications in terms of type, number of cell, active area, cooling method, weight, and size. In order to find optimum 500W PEMFC, six options are designed in this paper and studied to reduce total stack weight by applying new materials and design innovations. However, still remaining problems are thermal management, robot space for energy sources, and soon. For a thermal management, design options need to analysis of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for determining which option has the improved performance and durability.

배터리 기반 센서 시스템과 달리 태양 에너지 기반 센서 시스템에서는 정확한 양은 알 수 없지만 적어도 주기적으로 에너지가 수집될 수 있으므로 에너지 사용의 최소화가 목표가 아니라 에너지 사용의 최적화가 목표가 된다. 본 연구에서는 네트워크 토폴로지 최적화를 목적으로 태양 에너지 수집형 센서 시스템에서 잔존 에너지양에 따른 3단계 전송 파워 조절 알고리즘을 제안한다. 아울러 이 기법이 전체 센서 네트워크의 성능에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 실험을 통하여 살펴보았는데, 대부분의 지표에서 전송 파워를 고정한 기법들 보다 우수한 성능을 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있다.
