The preliminary design optimization of multi-stage spur gear reduction units has been a subject of considerable interest, since many high-performance power transmission applications (e.g., automotive and aerospace) require high-performance gear reduction units. There are multiple objectives in the optimal design of multi-stage spur gear reduction unit, such as minimizing the volume and maximizing the surface fatigue life. It is reasonable to formulate the design of spur gear reduction unit as a multi-objective optimization problem, and find an appropriate approach to solve it. In this paper an interactive physical programming approach is developed to place physical programming into an interactive framework in a natural way. Class functions, which are used to represent the designer's preferences on design objectives, are fixed during the interactive physical programming procedure. After a Pareto solution is generated, a preference offset is added into the class function of each objective based on whether the designer would like to improve this objective or sacrifice the objective so as to improve other objectives. The preference offsets are adjusted during the interactive physical programming procedure, and an optimal solution that satisfies the designer's preferences is supposed to be obtained by the end of the procedure. An optimization problem of three-stage spur gear reduction unit is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

A new interactive multiobjective decision making technique, which is called the fuzzy sequential proxy optimization technique, has been proposed. This technique is the revised version the sequential proxy optimization technique that the decision-maker's marginal rates of substitution is interpreted as type of L-R fuzzy numbers. It used to the square of normalized scalar product as the doptimalilry condition. However, this technique ignores the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement of marginal rates of substitution. Also, it have a shortcoming that can be only applied over three objective functions. In this paper, considering the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement, we presents an interactive fuzzy decision-making method on the basis of the decision-maker's MRS presented through the use of five types of membership functions including non-linear functions. FORTRAN programs that run in conversational mode are developed to implement man-machine interactive procedure.

일반적으로 유한요소 모델로부터 구한 해석결과는 대상 구조물의 모드 실험결과와 오차를 보인다. 이러한 오차로 인해서 유한요소 모델의 효용성에 한계가 발생하게 되면, 모델의 신뢰성을 높일 수 있도록 모델을 보정하는 절차가 필요하다. 유한요소 모델 개선은 이러한 오차를 줄이기 위해서 유한요소 모델을 변경하는 체계적인 접근법이다. 유한요소 모델에서 변경할 수 있는 매개변수의 개수는 실험결과의 개수보다 훨씬 많으므로 실험결과와 일치되는 개선된 모델의 수는 무한하다고 할 수 있다. 그러나, 개선된 유한요소 모델이 물리적 타당성을 갖도록 매개변수의 선택과 변경에 제한을 주면 초기 유한요소 모델에 비해서 실험결과와의 오차가 개선된 근사해만 존재하게 된다. 따라서, 모델 개선 과정을 통해서 구한 개선된 모델은 오차의 평가기준 또는 목적함수에 따라서 정해진 다양한 근사해 중 하나이다. 기존의 모델 개선 방법에서는 실험결과와의 오차를 나타내는 단 하나의 평가기준 또는 목적함수를 사용하고 이를 최소화하는 모델을 구한다. 최적화 결과를 얻기 전에는 사용된 평가기준이 타당한지 검토할 수 없으므로 대부분의 경우, 시행착오 방법으로 목적함수를 설정하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 다목적 최적화 개념을 이용한 평가기준을 소개하고 특히, 대화식 다목적 최적화 기법을 이용하여 유한요소 모델을 개선한다.

In conventional model updating using single-objective optimization techniques, incompatible physical data are compared with each other using weighting factors. There are no general rules for selecting the weighting factors since they are not directly related with the dynamic behavior of an updated model. So one of the most difficult tasks, in model updating study, is 'balancing among the correlations' i.e. 'trade-off'. In this work, a multiobjecitive optimization technique called 'satisficing trade-off method' is introduced to extremize several correlations simultaneously. The absurd need for the weighting factors can be avoided using this technique. And the updated model with the most appropriate correlations is obtained easily in interactive way. Especially automatic trade-off is employed to increase the rate of convergence to the desired model. Its effectiveness is verified by application to a real engineering problem, HDD cover model updating.
