  • The paper introduces an educational environment for multidisciplinary automotive development project made with other global institutions worldwide. The main objective is to accelerate students design and manufacturing skills, while giving them the experience of global communications for a large scale collaboration. This objective demands the intimate partnership between industrial design and engineering worldwide as well. Not only is the design and manufacturing portion of the project a challenge, but the students must organize the project teams together to incorporate different subsystem designs from other institutions, which, after all, requires constant communication and a truly team-oriented atmosphere for the global innovative engineering education.

  • Multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) for a suspension component of the vehicle front suspension was performed in this research. Shapes and thicknesses of the subframe were optimized to satisfy multi-disciplinary design requirements; weight, fatigue, crash, noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH), and kinematic and compliance (K&C). Analyses procedures of the performance disciplines were integrated and automated by using the process integration and design optimization (PIDO) technique, and the integrated and automated analyses environments enabled various types of analytic design methodologies for solving the MDO problem. We applied an approximate optimization technique which involves sequential sampling and metamodeling. Since the design variables for thicknesses should be dealt as discrete variables. the evolutionary algorithm is selected as optimization technique. The MDO problem was formulated three types of problems according to the order of priorities among the performance disciplines, and the results of MDO provided design alternatives for various design situations.

  • In Korea construction project case, architectural construction project is curtailed production because information network process within multidisciplinary isn't smooth. Particularly, the construction is not insufficient about performance, cost and material, construction process, etc. in result various question arises because of design error in construction step. And various mistake is made because communication path within multidisciplinary isn't smooth in architectural design and design change process. This research proposed the optimization method of building system which is satisfied with performance of building, cost, constructability, and proposed the information management plan which is connected with that. And The construction information in this research is restricted to design/construction information which is considerate in design step.

  • This study explores knowledge structures of science and technology disciplines using a cocitation analysis of journal subject categories with the publication data of a science & technology oriented university in Korea. References cited in the articles published by the faculty of the university were analyzed to produce MDS maps and network centralities. For the whole university research domain, six clusters were created including clusters of Biology related subjects, Medicine related subjects, Chemistry plus Engineering subjects, and multidisciplinary sciences plus other subjects of multidisciplinary nature. It was found that subjects of multidisciplinary nature and Biology related subjects function as central nodes in knowledge communication network in science and technology. Same analysis procedure was applied to two natural science disciplines and another two engineering disciplines to present knowledge structures of the departmental research domains.

  • The automotive door has a large finite element model in analysis and many design requirements such as stiffness, natural frequency, side intrusion, etc. Thus, various related governing equations should be solved for systematic analysis and design. Because each governing equation has different characteristics, it is almost impossible to solve them simultaneously. Instead, they are separately handled and the analysis results are incorporated into the design separately. Currently, the design is usually conducted by trials and errors with engineering intuition in design practice. In this research, MDO methods are proposed to solve the problems that share design variables in disciplines. The idea is from the Gauss-Seidel type method for multi-discipline analysis. The developed methods show stable convergence and the weight of the door is reduced by fifteen percent.

  • This paper presents the method to determine the battery capacity for controlling the wind power with BESS for stabilizing the output of HanGeong wind farm in accordance with grid codes for distributed generators in Jeju Island. To find appropriate capacity of BESS, three kinds of simulations are carried out : There are focused on smoothing control, the frequency fluctuation and the renewable energy resources standards, respectively. As the simulation result, maximum C-rates of BESS for the wind farm are calculated as 2C, 5C and 2C that are for each method and battery capacities have 25%, 20% and 10% of total capacity of HanGeong wind farm. Finally, simulations for this paper are carried out by using PSCAD/EMTDC.

  • ITS (Intelligent Transportation System) has been more popular but ITS project managements remain complex because of diverse stakeholders and multidisciplinary processes of ITS. The multidisciplinary process enforces specialized competencies on ITS project managers comparing to other system integration project managers. In this paper, we derived core competencies of ITS projects from previous researches, built the hierarchy of the competencies, and employed AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) surveying ITS project managers and auditors with the hierarchy. Finally, we analyzed the difference of evaluation model on ITS project manager between project managers and auditors using Mann-Whitney U test. Additionally we suggest a method of building MECE (Mutually Exclusive and Collectively Exhaustive) structure for AHP using the HoQ (House of Quality). We expect our model to give some inspirations for raising capable ITS project managers and selecting a proper project manager for an ITS project.

  • This paper analyzes the characteristics of the power system of Jeju island in 2014, which has wind farms with the support of BESSs (Battery Energy Storage Systems). In the simulation, the electrical loads are predicted based on Korea Power Exchange's data and the wind turbines are considered with new installed plans within 2014. The situation that some wind farms are forced to disconnect from the grid instantaneously is considered. The BESSs are controlled by using SOC (State of Charge) and power smoothing control algorithm. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
