New method for evaluation of heat transfer coefficient is proposed. In general, many researchers have been studied about inverse problem in order to calculate the heat transfer coefficient on three-dimensional heat conduction problem. But they can get the time-dependent heat transfer coefficient only through inverse problem. In order to acquire temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficient, it requires much time for numerous repetitive calculation and inconvenient manual modification. In order to solve these problems, we are using the SQP(Sequential Quadratic Programming) as an optimization algorithm. When the temperature history is given by experiment, the optimization algorithm can evaluate the temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficient with automatic repetitive calculation until difference between calculated temperature history and experimental ones is minimized. Finally, temperature-dependent heat transfer coefficient evaluated by developed program can used on various heat transfer problem.

In this paper, we suggest reliability as a metric to evaluate the robustness of a design for the optimal design of electromagnetic devices, with respect to constraints under the uncertainties in design variables. For fast numerical efficiency, we applied the sensitivity-assisted Monte Carlo simulation (S-MCS) method to perform reliability calculation. Furthermore, we incorporated the S-MCS with single-objective and multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithms to achieve reliability-based optimal designs, undertaking probabilistic constraint and multi-objective optimization approaches, respectively. We validated the performance of the developed optimization algorithms through application to the optimal design of a superconducting magnetic energy storage system.

This investigation is aimed to develop a model of experimental-computation determination of a support moment of a cantilever beam loaded with concentrated force at its end including the optimal choice of coordinates of deflection data points and parameters of transformation of deflection data in case of insufficient accuracy of the assignment of initial parameters (support settlement, angle of rotation of the bearing section) and cantilever beam length. The influence of distribution and characteristics of sensors on the cantilever beam on the accuracy of determining the support moment which improves in the course of transition from the uniform distribution of sensors to optimal non-uniform distribution is shown. On the basis of the theory of inverse problems the method of transformation reduction at numerical differentiation of deflection functions has been studied. For engineering evaluation formulae of uncertainty estimate to determine a support moment of a cantilever beam at predetermined uncertainty of measurements using sensors have been obtained.

It has been established that a crack has an important effect on the dynamic behavior of a structure. This effect depends mainly on the location and depth of the crack. Toidentifythelocation and depth of a crack in a structure, a method is presented in this paper which uses neuro-fuzzy-evolutionary technique, that is, Adaptive-Network-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) solved via hybrid learning algorithm (the back-propagation gradient descent and the least-squares method) and Continuous Evolutionary Algorithms (CEAs) solving sir ale objective optimization problems with a continuous function and continuous search space efficiently are unified. With this ANFIS and CEAs, it is possible to formulate the inverse problem. ANFIS is used to obtain the input(the location and depth of a crack) - output(the structural Eigenfrequencies) relation of the structural system. CEAs are used to identify the crack location and depth by minimizing the difference from the measured frequencies. We have tried this new idea on beam structures and the results are promising.

There are several methods which have been presented up to now in solving the simultaneous linear equations by computer. They are Gaussian Elimination Method, Gauss-Jordan Method, Inverse matrix Method and Gauss-Seidel iterative Method. This paper is not only discussed in their mechanisms compared with their algorithms, depicted flow charts, but also calculated the numbers of arithmetic operations and comparisons in order to criticize their availability. Inverse Matrix Method among em is founded out the smallest in the number of arithmetic operation, but is not the shortest operation time. This paper also indicates the many problems in using these methods and propose the new method which is able to applicate to even small or middle size computers.

This paper deals with a new methodology for topology optimization in which the topology of the design domain may change during the shape optimization process. To achieve this, the concept of the topological gradient is introduced to compute the sensitivity of an objective function when a small hole is drilled in the domain. Based on shape and topological sensitivity values, the shape and topology of the design domain may be simultaneously changed during design iterations if necessary. To verify the advantages and also to facilitate understanding of the method itself, two electrostatic design problems have been tested by using 2D finite element analysis: the first is the inverse problem of a simple dielectric model and the second is the rotor design of a MEMS actuator.

This study aims to determine the optimal solution to transportation problems. We proposed a novel approach for tackling the initial basic feasible solution. This is a critical step toward achieving an optimal or near-optimal solution. The transportation issue is an issue of distributing goods from several sources to several destinations. The literature demonstrates many ways to improve IBFS. In this work, to solve the IBFS, we suggested a new method based on the statistical formula called cumulative distribution function (CDF) in exponential distribution, and inverse contra-harmonic mean (ICHM). The spreadsheet converts transportation cost values into exponential cost cell values. The stepping-stone method is used to identify an optimum solution. The results are compared with other existing methodologies, the suggested method incorporates balanced, and unbalanced, maximizing the profits, random values, and case studies which produce more effective outcomes.

We analyzed a noise-sensitivity profile of a specific SQUID sensor system for the localization of brain activity. The location of a neuromagnetic current source is estimated from the recording of spatially distributed SQUID sensors. According to the specific arrangement of the sensors, each site in the source space has different sensitivity, that is, the difference in the lead field vectors. Conversely, channel noises on each sensor will give a different amount of the estimation error to each of the source sites. e.g., a distant source site from the sensor system has a small lead-field vector in magnitude and low sensitivity. However, when we solve the inverse problem from the recorded sensor data, we use the inverse of the lead-field vector that is rather large, which results in an overestimated noise power on the site. Especially, the spatial sensitivity profile of a gradiometer system measuring tangential fields is much more complex than a radial magnetometer system. This is one of the causes to make the solutions of inverse problems unstable on intervening of the sensor noise. In this study, in order to improve the localization accuracy, we calculated the noise-sensitivity profile of our 40-channel planar SQUID gradiometer system, and applied it as a normalization weight factor to the source localization using synthetic aperture magnetometry.

As a reversible Jacket is having the compatibility of two sided wearing, the matrix that both the inside and the outside are compatible is called Jacket matrix, and the matrix is having both inside and outside by the processes of element-wise inverse and block-wise inverse. This concept had been completed by one of the authors Moon Ho Lee in 1989, and finally that resultant matrix has been christened as Jacket matrix, in 2000. This is the most generalized extension of the well known Hadamard matrices, which includes both orthogonal and non-orthogonal matrices. This matrix addresses many problems in information and communication theories. we investigate the properties of the Jacket matrix, i.e. determinants, eigenvalues, and kronecker product. These computations are very useful for signal processing and orthogonal codes design. In our proposal, we provide some results to calculate these values by using a very simple mathematical model with less complexity.

For inverse scattering problems reconstructing cross-sectional permittivity distributions of dielectric cylinders, the angular spectral inverse technique using the moment method with pulse basis function suffers from large reconstruction error even if very small noise due to requiring the higher spectral informations on the larger cross-section of the cylinder. To reduce the number of higher-order spectra, this paper presents an improved inverse technique in angular spectral domain applying the moment procedure with a series-expansion basis function for the induced field in each enlarged cross-sectional cell. By choosing adequate spectra and averaging over the enlarged cells with a suitable weighting function, the reconstruction profiles reveal fine enough to suppress the noise effect significantly.
