The foundation is one part under the building that has a very important role. The choice of the type of foundation is something that needs to be considered. One type of foundation that is widely used is the minipile foundation. Minipile foundation itself is a type of foundation that is used if the load received from the superstructure is not too heavy and the hard soil type is at a depth of between 5-10m. The purpose of this study was to plan the bearing capacity of the minipile foundation pile in the PT. BPJE in Ngasem, Kediri Regency. The building is planned to be used as an office building. The planned sub-building includes foundation planning with a mini-square building with a cross-sectional dimension of 20x20. The calculations carried out include the calculation of the bearing capacity of the foundation using the Mayerhoff method, the calculation of the flexural factor and the calculation of reinforcement. The calculation results (sigma Vertical Ultimate) Vu = 114.78 tons. With bending factor tk = 286.95 kg /. The reinforcement in the pile cap for the x direction of tensile reinforcement = D16–170 and compression reinforcement = D16–250 while for tensile reinforcement in the y direction = D16 - 170 and compressive reinforcement = D10 - 250. Thus, the results of the planning can be used as a reference for the implementation of building construction. office of PT. BPJE in Ngasem, Kediri Regency.

For the prestressed plane entitiy steel structure topology optimization design which design variables include the cable pretension value, unit size and the structural topology, the optimized mathematical model which objective function is the minimum structural weight is established with consideration of the constrains of stress and displacement. As for the solving method, firstly we need to determine the pretension applying to the cable according to full stress design and choose the unit size; then we need to conduct displacement sensitivity analysis to delete the low sensitivity unit to realize the structural topology optimization design. The example result is in conformity with the corresponding system of mechanical performance, and it indicates that the method proposed in this paper is effective.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to optimize beams undergoing harmonic excitation in both bending and torsion due to an intermediate mass and inertial component. The objective is to minimize the weight for a composite beam made of glass reinforced acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), while maintaining performance above a given natural frequency. Design variables are the cross-sectional dimensions. Weight reduction is computed compared to a uniform case. The results are obtained for two different composites with different glass densities, and compared with results obtained with a steel structure. The structure examined is a clamped-clamped beam with an intermediate mass and inertial component. Basic structures are modeled and optimized analytically. Coupling effects are modeled discretely using finite elements, and these structures are optimized using commercial software. Structures with closed (circular) and open (channel) cross-sections are examined. Results show order of magnitude improvement of optimized structures for both steel and composite beams.

Compared with four-stroke engines, single-cylinder two-stroke engines have the characteristics of small inertia, high rotational speed, and wide excitation frequency range. However, the structural vibration and noise generated by the two-stroke engine are very violent. Hence, it is necessary to reduce the vibration and noise of the single-cylinder two-stroke engine. Based on the design theory of the engine mounting system, the excitation frequency, direction, and magnitude of a single-cylinder two-stroke engine are analyzed. The rubber isolator is selected as the new mount element, and the dynamic model of the engine powertrain mounting system is established based on ADAMS software. Based on the sensitivity analysis of the design variables of the mounting system, the natural frequency of the mounting system is used as an objective, and the three-directional stiffness of the mounting system is taken as design variables for the optimization problem. The optimization model is solved by the sequential quadratic programming method. The results show that the maximum frequency of the mounting system after optimization is less than 1/[Formula: see text] of the excitation frequency, and the isolation effect is achieved. The dynamic model and the optimization method presented in this article would provide a useful tool for the design and optimization of mounting system for the single-cylinder two-stroke engine to reduce vibration from the engine to the engine support.

<p>Structural design generally involves hundreds of design variables and multiple constraints in practical engineering projects, nevertheless, traditional optimization techniques are failed to meet the engineering requirements for solving the optimization problem with high efficiency and accuracy. In this paper, a single driven constraint optimization method based on constraint sensitivity is presented for high-rise steel structure. The design method takes the sensitivity coefficient as the reference index for the optimization design of components to ensure proper compliance and redundancy requirements. An effective incremental analysis method is applied for the calculation of sensitivity coefficients within constraints and design variables. Sensitivity coefficients based material redistribution of components is carried out to make the structure achieve the optimization objective on the premise of satisfying all the design constraints.</p>

In flex-tensional piezoactuators, due to the low displacement of piezostacks, a compliant mechanism is used to amplify displacement of piezostack. In this paper, optimization of a compliant mechanism with corner-filleted flexure hinges is carried out using real-coded genetic algorithms (GAs) to avoid trapping in local optimums. The objective functions are displacement amplification and stiffness of mechanism and design variables are cross-sectional size and material used. The constraints which are applied on mechanism are based on piezostack dimensions and manufacturing limits. Displacement amplification and stiffness are calculated using strain energy and Castigliano’s displacement theorem.
