パラメータ成立範囲によるロバスト設計法と耐震設計への適用

Recently nonlinear simulation has been introduced into, for example, fluid analysis carried out for the design and development of spacecraft, leading to studies of the computation of robust design solutions that can withstand external disturbances. As the technology becomes more advanced and specialized, however, organizations have become more siloed, making it difficult to share information with designers in other fields. As a basis for considering parameter design, the present study describes the computation of ranges of parameter values satisfying multiple restrictions. One feature of these effective parameter ranges is that they enable multiple results to be evaluated together; another feature is that it becomes easier to share the results with other designers. To verify the effectiveness of this method, it was applied to a seismic simulation of timber structures to compute parameter ranges that would avoid collapse in a major seismic event and avoid damage in a moderate seismic event. A multilevel orthogonal array was used to improve the reproducibility of the results of the study, and a supercomputer was used to shorten the computation time. Reproducibility was studied using the shape retention method of quality engineering, and found to be high.
