where mij is the mass coefficient, cij is the
damping coefficient, kij is the stiffness
coefficient between the nodes i and j, fi(t) is the
excitation force. And xi(t), xi(t), xi(t), n are the
displacement, velocity, acceleration for i and
the number of node respectively. These are
expressed by using matrices as follows:

We JAXA are now studying the abovementioned optimization method. It is the design
method of optimal rotor system by using
multidisciplinary optimization due to integration
of the subsystems of the turbopump (e.g. pump,
turbine and rotor). Herein, the each subsystem
is discussed as a discipline. Because the rotor
vibration is the result of the interaction between
excitation and damping, knowledge and insight
obtained by the "Dynamics" point of view are
essential. Therefore, this design method is
approached by Dynamics, and its key words
are Dynamics design, Multidisciplinary
optimal design and Design of morphology.
(1) The dynamics design
This design takes the motion and the response
(e.g., the unsteadiness, the disturbance, the
mutual interference and the stability) into
consideration, that is, the phenomena of time
and frequency domains are focused. In contrast,
static design is the method of focusing
performance, efficiency, constant and noninteractive phenomena.
(2) Multidisciplinary optimal design
The optimal solution for the rotor system is
pursued to stabilize the rotor at the upper level
hierarchy. The dynamics characteristics, e.g.,
RD coefficient, from each rotational element at
the lower level are input into the upper level
hierarchy. The subsystems are designed and also
optimized to increase stability at a discrete area.
(3) Design of morphology
Morphology design method does not pursue
each element shape such as the detailed blade
profile, but determines the location and/or the
layout and/or permutation of the subsystems as
the system form first.
The selection of the rotor form (layout,
permutation of the rotating elements) is located
as the upper level hierarchy in the design
optimization problem. The optimization of each
the pump subsystem, the turbine subsystem and
the rotor subsystem which includes seals and
bearings are located as the lower level hierarchy.
While each subsystem is optimized according to
some independent objective functions in the
