Abstract: An information processing apparatus is used for delivery of objects by a plurality of mobile structures among logistics centers, depositories, and delivery destinations. The apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry computes, using a mathematical model, at least the number of the mobile structures to be used for delivery of the objects, mobile-structure route information, a total volume of the objects that each mobile structure delivers, and a load handling time of each mobile structure. The mathematical model is given inputs of at least location information of the logistics centers, the depositories, and the delivery destinations, delivery-object information, delivery-time information, and maximum loading-capacity information of each mobile structure. The processing circuitry outputs the number of the mobile structures, the mobile-structure route information, the total volume, and the load handling time.

Abstract: An optimization model analysis apparatus configured with a finite element model generation unit that generates on the basis of a structural configuration of a design model having a 3D shape a finite element model for analyzing acoustic characteristics of the design by a finite element method. The apparatus is configured with a shell model generation unit that generates a model by dividing a surface of the finite element model into a plurality of plate elements having a polygonal shape; an optimization model generation unit that superimposes the shell model on the surface of the finite element model to generate an optimization model; and an optimization model modification unit that displaces nodal points which serve as vertexes of the plate elements in a direction intersecting a plane of the plate elements by displacing at least one of the nodal points in a direction of reducing a thickness of the optimization model.
