Approximate structural optimization using kriging method and digital modeling technique considering noise in sampling data
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a combination approach of a digital finite element modeling technique and the Kriging method for structural optimization. Since the digital modeling technique includes some inaccuracies in a modeling process, applicability of the Kriging method to noisy data is investigated. An estimated surface generated by the conventional Kriging method will be wavy and not appropriate to approximate optimization with noisy data. Therefore, a new Kriging-based approach is proposed. The new class of the Kriging method and a digital modeling technique is applied to an eigenfrequency optimization of a structure. Numerical examples illustrate a validity and effectiveness of the proposed method. 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Natural Gas Price Forecasting using Kriging Interpolation Technique and Neldar-Mead Optimization Algorithm
The prediction of economic series with high volatility and high uncertainty - such as natural gas prices - is always a challenge in econometric models, because the use of traditional linear modeling models does not allow us to predict complex and nonlinear time series. Regarding the prediction of natural gas prices, findings point to superiority of the neural network compared to regression mod...
متن کاملA Two Level Approximation Technique for Structural Optimization
This work presents a method for optimum design of structures, where the design variables can he considered as Continuous or discrete. The variables are chosen as sizing variables as well as coordinates of joints. The main idea is to reduce the number of structural analyses and the overal cost of optimization. In each design cycle, first the structural response quantities such as forces, displac...

Recently there has been a growing interest in using response surface techniques to expedite the global optimization of functions calculated by long running computer codes. The literature in this area commonly assumes that the objective function is a smooth, deterministic function of the inputs. Yet it is well known that many computer simulations, especially those of computational fluid and stru...

The objective of this study is to develop a new modified Bayesian Kriging (MBKG) surrogate modeling method that can be used to carry out confidence-based reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) for problems in which simulation analyses are inherently noisy and standard Kriging approaches fail. The formulation of the MBKG surrogate modeling method is presented, and the full conditional dist...

1. Abstract Complex and computationally intensive modeling and simulation of real-world engineering systems can include a large number of design variables in the optimization of such systems. Consequently, it is desirable to conduct variable screening to identify significant or active variables so that a simpler, more efficient, and accurate optimization process can be achieved.
