This book investigates Reliability-based Multidisciplinary Design
Optimization (RBMDO) theory and its application in the design of
deep manned submersibles (DMSs). Multidisciplinary Design
Optimization (MDO) is an effective design method for large
engineering systems like aircraft, warships, and satellites, which
require designers and engineers from various disciplines to
cooperate with each other. MDO can be used to handle the conflicts
that arise between these disciplines, and focuses on the optimal
design of the system as a whole. However, it can also push designs
to the brink of failure. In order to keep the system balanced,
Reliability-based Design (RBD) must be incorporated into MDO.
Consequently, new algorithms and methods have to be developed for
RBMDO theory. This book provides an essential overview of MDO, RBD,
and RBMDO and subsequently introduces key algorithms and methods by
means of case analyses. In closing, it introduces readers to the
design of DMSs and applies RBMDO methods to the design of the
manned hull and the general concept design. The book is intended
for all students and researchers who are interested in system
design theory, and for engineers working on large, complex
engineering systems.
In order to apply the damage tolerance design philosophy to design
marine structures, accurate prediction of fatigue crack growth
under service conditions is required. Now, more and more people
have realized that only a fatigue life prediction method based on
fatigue crack propagation (FCP) theory has the potential to explain
various fatigue phenomena observed. In this book, the issues
leading towards the development of a unified fatigue life
prediction (UFLP) method based on FCP theory are addressed. Based
on the philosophy of the UFLP method, the current inconsistency
between fatigue design and inspection of marine structures could be
resolved. This book presents the state-of-the-art and recent
advances, including those by the authors, in fatigue studies. It is
designed to lead the future directions and to provide a useful tool
in many practical applications. It is intended to address to
engineers, naval architects, research staff, professionals and
graduates engaged in fatigue prevention design and survey of marine
structures, in fatigue studies of materials and structures, in
experimental laboratory research, in planning the repair and
maintenance of existing structures, and in rule development. The
book is also an effective educational aid in naval architecture,
marine, civil and mechanical engineering. Prof. Weicheng Cui is the
Dean of Hadal Science and Technology Research Center of Shanghai
Ocean University, China. Dr. Xiaoping Huang is an associate
professor of School of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Civil
Engineering of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China. Dr. Fang Wang
is an associate professor of Hadal Science and Technology Research
Center of Shanghai Ocean University, China.
