In the present study, a hydrodynamic hull-form optimization algorithm for a container ship was presented in terms of the minimum wave-making resistance. Bell-shaped modification functions were developed to modify the original hull-form and a sequential quadratic programming algorithm was used as an optimizer. The wave-making resistance as an objective function was obtained by the Rankine source panel method in which non-linear free surface conditions and the trim and sinkage of the ship were fully taken into account. Numerical computation was performed to investigate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed hull-form modification algorithm for the container carrier. The computational results were validated by comparing them with the experimental data.

In this paper, we investigate the following form of a certain class of quadratic functional equations and its fuzzy stability. $$f(kx+y)+f(kx-y)=f(x+y)+f(x-y)-2(1-k^2)f(x)$$ where k is a fixed rational number with $k{\neq}1$, -1, 0.

Lagrange's famous Four Square Theorem [L] says that every positive integer can be represented by the sum of four squares. This marvelous theorem was generalized by Mordell [M1] and Ko [K1] as follows : every positive definite integral quadratic form of two, three, four, and five variables is represented by the sum of five, six, seven, and eight squares, respectively. And they tried to extend this to positive definite integral quadratic forms of six or more variables.

Nonconvex Quadratic Optimization Problems (QOP) are solved approximately by SDP (semidefinite programming) relaxation and SOCP (second order cone programmming) relaxation. Nonconvex QOPs with special structures can be solved exactly by SDP and SOCP. We propose a method to formulate general nonconvex QOPs into the special form of the QOP, which can provide a way to find more accurate solutions. Numerical results are shown to illustrate advantages of the proposed method.

The purpose of this paper is to derive powers $A^{n}$ using a system of recursive sequences for a given $2{\times}2$ matrix A. Introducing a recursive sequence we have a quadratic equation. Solutions to this quadratic equation are related with eigenvalues of A. By solving this quadratic equation we can easily obtain an explicit form of $A^{n}$. Our method holds when A is defined not only on the real field but also on the complex field.

We show that the Diophantine equation $$aQ(x_1,x_2)+bQ(x_3,x_4)+cQ(x_5,x_6)=abc$$ has integral solutions for arbitrary positive integers a, b, c when Q(x, y) is a norm form for some imaginary quadratic fields.

We partially characterize criteria for the n-universality of positive-definite integer-matrix quadratic forms. We then obtain the uniqueness of Oh's 8-universality criterion [11] as a corollary.

This paper presents the method for developing an optimum hull form with minimum wave resistance using SQP(sequential quadratic programming) as an optimization technique. The wave resistance is evaluated by a Rankine source panel method with non-linear free surface conditions and the ITTC 1957 friction line is used to predict the frictional resistance coefficient. The geometry of the hull surface is represented and modified using B-spline surface patches. The optimization method is applied to Series 60 hull and KCS(KRISO 3600 TEU Container Ship). The obtained results prove that the method is appropriate for preliminary hull form design.

This study identified the problems of teaching quadratic functions using a translation and a vertex form by completing squares of which method make teaching contents not to be interconnected and tend to interfere students' conceptual understanding. This seems to generated from which the current mathematics curriculum is not organized to deliver the related contents of quadratic functions from polynomial expressions students have already known. To resolve it this study investigates the properties of quadratic functions from a polynomial perspective and discusses classroom implications with a couple of concrete applications.

A hull form design technique to enhance the wave-making resistance performance for a medium size high speed Ro-Pax ship was studied introducing an optimization method and an automatic hull form modification method. SQP(sequential quadratic programming) was applied as the optimization algorithm and the geometry of hull surface was represented and modified using the NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline). The wave-making resistance performance as an objective function in the optimization procedure was evaluated using the Rankine source panel method in which nonlinearity of the free surface boundary conditions and the trim and sinkage of the ship was fully taken into account. Using the Ro-Pax ship as a base hull, the hull-form optimization method was applied to obtain the hull shape that produced the lower wave-making resistance. To verify the validity of the hull-form optimization method, the numerical results was compared with the model test results.
