This paper describes a reactive optimal power flow incorporating margin enhancement constraints. Margin sensitivity at a steady-state voltage instability point is calculated using invariant space parametric sensitivity, and it can provide valuable information for selection of effective control parameters. However, the weakest buses in neighboring regions have high margin sensitivities within a certain range. Hence, the control determination using only the sensitivity information might cause violation of operational limits of the base operating point, at which the control is applied to enhance voltage stability margin in the direction of parameter increase. This paper applies an interior point method (IPM) to solve the optimal power flow formulation with the margin enhancement constraints, and shunt capacitances are mainly considered as control variables. In addition, nonlinearity of margin enhancement with respect to control of shunt capacitance is considered for speed-up control determination in the numerical example using the IEEE 118-bus test system.

We deal with a sensitivity analysis of an optimal shape control problem for the stationary Navier-Stokes system. A two-dimensional channel flow of an incompressible, viscous fluid is examined to determine the shape of a bump on a part of the boundary that minimizes the viscous drag. By using the material derivative method and adjoint variables for a shape sensitivity analysis, we derive the shape gradient of the design functional for the model problem.

In this paper, the design sensitivity formula for the control of the transient temperature distribution is developed using the direct differentiation method, and used for the optimal design of induction heating coil position. The temperature distribution is calculated using the heat source of the induced eddy current and heat diffusion equation. The physical property variations of the workpiece depending on the temperature are considered. The eddy current distribution and the temperature distribution are calculated with the 2D finite element procedure. The adjoint variable technique is employed in expressing the design sensitivity. The goal of the design is to have the desired distribution of the temperature on a specific region of the sensitivity. The goal of the design is to have the desired distribution of the temperature on a specific region sensitivity. The goal of the design is to have the desired distribution of the temperature on a specific region of the workpiece. The numerical example shows that the proposed design sensitivity analysis for the control of the transient temperature distribution is very useful and practical in the optimal design of induction heating coils.

본 연구에서는 압축 성형다이 가열선의 최적위치를 결정하는 문제를 다이의 형상 최적설계 문제로 정식화하고자 한다. 최적화 문제의 목적은 다이 내면의 온도를 지정된 온도로 균일하게 유지하는 것이다. 또한 Lee, Choi와 Kwak의 형상 설계 민감 도 해석을 위한 직접 미분 방법을 응용하여 가열선 위치변화에 관한 민감도 계산을 위한 경계 적분 방정식을 유도하고, 경계요소법으로 온도와 온도의 민감도를 해석하고 자 한다. 수치적 응용의 예로서, 넓은 평판의 성형을 위한 압축 성형다이의 가열선의 최적위치를 결정하는 문제를 다루고, 최적위치에서 가열선의 개수가 온도의 균일성에 미치는 영향을 검토한다.

This paper presents a method of sensitivity analysis for the infeasible interior point method when a new variable is introduced. For the sensitivity analysis in introducing a new variable, we present a method to find an optimal solution to the modified problem. If dual feasibility is satisfied, the optimal solution to the modified problem is the same as that of the original problem. If dual feasibility is not satisfied, we first check whether the optimal solution to the modified problem can be easily obtained by moving only dual solution to the original problem. If it is possible, the optimal solution to the modified problem is obtained by simple modification of the optimal solution to the original problem. Otherwise, a method to set an initial solution for the infeasible interior point method is presented to reduce the number of iterations required. The experimental results are presented to demonstrate that the proposed method works better.

A new approach to process optimal design in non-isothermal, non-steady state metal forming is presented. In this approach, the optimal design problem is formulated on the basis of the integrated thermo-mechanical finite element process model so as to cover a wide range of the objective functions and design variables, and the derivative based approach is adopted for conducting optimization by design iteration. The process model, the formulation for process optimal design, and the procedures for the evaluation of the design sensitivity and for design iteration for optimization are described.

The response sensitivity method in time domain has been applied extensively for damage identification. In this paper, the relationship between the error of damage identification and the sensitivity matrix is investigated through perturbation analysis. An index is defined according to the perturbation amplify effect and an optimal sensor placement method is proposed based on the minimization of that index. A sequential sub-optimal algorithm is presented which results in consistently good location selection. Numerical simulations with a two-dimensional high truss structure are conducted to validate the proposed method. Results reveal that the damage identification using the optimal sensor placement determined by the proposed method can identify multiple damages of the structure more accurately.

This paper investigates optimal locations of piezoelectric actuators and sensors on a thin plate. To locate actuators and sensors properly is important in controlling modal vibrations well. A piezoelectric sensitivity index is introduced to select optimal locations for vibration control of each mode. The sensitivity expresses the efficiency of actuating and sensing modal forces according to locations of a piezoelectric material on a plate. The piezoelectric sensitivities for two types of plate, an all-clamped plate, and a free-free plate, are derived theoretically and are verified experimentally. Also, its usefulness Is experimentally shown to control vibration of the all-clamped plate with piezoelectric materials.
