Summary:This paper presents a new inverse analysis method which combines knowledge engineering technology with mathematical programming procedures. First, the current status of mathematical programming technology is briefly surveyed, and several issues on the technology are defined. Then, our new version of D-1-prolog, which performs heuristic controls over optimization algorithms, is introduced. The key concepts of heuristic controls are qualitative classification of design variables and generation of subregions based upon the landmark values of design variables. A visualization of global shapes of objective functions is also presented. Finally, the application of this method to the identification of geometric parameters for microstructures in Functionally Gradient Materials is shown.
