본 연구에서는 PFC3D를 사용한 폭원모델링 기법을 제안하고, 제안된 기법을 시멘트 모르타르와 같은 연약재료의 발파에 적용하여 그 적용성을 시험해 보았다. PFC3D는 개별요소법(DEM)을 기반으로 하고 있어 응력파의 전파와 재료의 동적 파괴현상을 모사하는데 적합한 코드로 분류된다. 폭원모델링 과정에서는 공내입자들의 반경을 팽창/수축시키는 기법을 통해 공벽입자들에 접촉력의 형태로 폭발압력을 부여하는 방법을 사용하였으며, 입력하중에 따라 공벽에서 유발되는 접촉력을 계산단계마다 측정 및 보정함으로써 폭발압력의 크기를 제어할 수 있도록 하였다. 시멘트 모르타르 블록의 발파모델링 과정에서는 기존의 외력을 이용하는 방법과 본 연구에서 제안하고 있는 접촉력을 이용하는 기법을 각기 적용함으로써 연약재료의 파괴과정을 정성적으로 비교하여 보았다. 해석결과, 제안된 폭원모델링 기법을 적용한다면 암석이나 콘크리트와 같은 공학재료들이 발파과정에서 보이는 파괴거동을 수치적으로 보다 유사하게 모사 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문에서는 입력전압을 감지하지 않는 전류연속/임계동작모드 active power factor correction(PFC) circuit을 제안하였다. 기존의 입력전압을 감지하지 않는 PFC circuit의 경우 출력전류가 낮은 경 부하 조건에서 DCM 동작을 수행하고, 이에 따라 PF가 감소하는 문제가 발생한다. 제안한 PFC circuit은 70KHz의 주파수로 CCM 동작을 수행하고, 경 부하 조건에서 최대 200KHz까지 스위칭 주파수가 가변되는 CRM 동작을 수행하도록 하였다. 이를 통해 경 부하 조건에서 PF가 감소하는 문제를 해결하였다. PFC controller IC는 $0.35{\mu}m$ BCDMOS 공정을 이용하여 제작하였으며, 240W급 PFC prototype을 제작하여 실험하였다. 제안한 PFC circuit은 기존의 PFC circcuit 대비 최대 10%의 역률이 향상되었고, IEC 61000-3-2 Class D 규격에 따른 경 부하 조건에서는 최대 4% 역률이 향상되었다.

본 연구에서는 $PFC^{3D}$상에서 공내입자들의 반경을 팽창/수축시키는 기법을 통해 공벽입자들에 접촉력의 형태로 폭발압력을 부여하는 폭원모델링을 기법을 소개하고, 제안된 기법을 이용하여 홉킨슨 효과 효과와 스폴링 현상을 응용하여 암석코어에 대한 응력파의 전파 및 반사과정을 기존의 외력을 적용함으로써 서로 비교하여 보았다. 암석코어는 직경 20m, 길이 200mm의 입자결합체로서 접촉결합을 이용하여 구성하였으며, 시료의 선단에 주기 0.050m$(50{\mu}s)$의 펄스형태의 폭발하중을 기존의 방법과 제안된 폭원모델링 기법을 이용하여 각기 입사시켰다. 해석결과 두 기법은 서로 유사한 결과를 보였으며, 입사압축파는 0.060ms$(60{\mu}s)$ 이후 시료의 후단에서 반사되어 반사인장파의 형태로 되돌아오면서 시료의 축방향과 직각방향으로 인장균열을 발생시켰다. 또한 시료 중을 전파하는 응력파의 속도는 4,167m/s로 계산되어 물리시료에 대한 측정치 4,300m/s와 $3\%$ 정도의 근소한 오차를 보였다.

In this research the effect of bedding layer angle and bedding layer thickness on the shear failure mechanism of concrete has been investigated using PFC3D. For this purpose, firstly calibration of PFC3d was performed using Brazilian tensile strength. Secondly shear test was performed on the bedding layer. Thickness of layers were 5 mm, 10 mm and 20 mm. in each thickness layer, layer angles changes from $0^{\circ}$ to $90^{\circ}$ with increment of $25^{\circ}$. Totally 15 model were simulated and tested by loading rate of 0.016 mm/s. The results shows that when layer angle is less than $50^{\circ}$, tensile cracks initiates between the layers and propagate till coalesce with model boundary. Its trace is too high. With increasing the layer angle, less layer mobilize in failure process. Also the failure trace is very short. It's to be note that number of cracks decrease with increasing the layer thickness. The minimum shear test strength was occurred when layer angle is more than $50^{\circ}$. The maximum value occurred in $0^{\circ}$. Also, the shear test tensile strength was increased by increasing the layer thickness.

This research presents the effect of anisotropy of the hollow disc mode under Brazilian test using PFC3D. The Brazilian tensile strength test was performed on the hollow disc specimens containing the bedding layers and then these specimens were numerically modeled by using the two dimensional discrete element code (PFC3D) to calibrate this computer code for the simulation of the cracks propagation and cracks coalescence in the anisotropic bedded rocks. The thickness of each layer within the specimens varied as 5 mm, 10 mm and 20 mm and the layers angles were changed as $0^{\circ}$, $25^{\circ}$, $50^{\circ}$, $75^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$. The diameter of internal hole was taken as 15 mm and the loading rate during the testing process kept as 0.016 mm/s. It has been shown that for layers angles below $25^{\circ}$ the tensile cracks produce in between the layers and extend toward the model boundary till interact and break the specimen. The failure process of the specimen may enhance as the layer angle increases so that the Brazilian tensile strength reaches to its minimum value when the bedding layers is between $50^{\circ}$ and $75^{\circ}$ but its value reaches to maximum at a layer angle of $90^{\circ}$. The number of tensile cracks decreases as the layers thickness increases and with increasing the layers angle, less layer mobilize in the failure process.

This paper introduces a novel digital one cycle control (DOCC) boost power factor correction (PFC) converter. The proposed PFC converter realizes the FPGA-based DOCC control approach for single-phase PFC rectifiers without input voltage sensing or a complicated two-loop compensation design. It can also achieve a high power factor and the operation of low harmonic input current ingredients over universal loads in continuous conduction mode. The trailing triangle modulation adopted in this approach makes the acquisition of the average input current an easy process. The controller implementation is based on a boost topology power circuit with low speed, low-resolution A/D converters, and economical FPGA development board. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed PFC rectifier can obtain a PF value of up to 0.999 and a minimum THD of at least 1.9% using a 120W prototype.

A PFC(Perfluorocarbon) heat pipe has been used recently for cooling of GTO(gate turn off) thyristors or diodes in electric commuter trains. The present study was conducted to determine heat transport limitation of a PFC heat pipe which is one of the important parameters in heat pipes design. The variables such as tube diameter, fill charge ratio, internal surface structure and operating temperature were examined by way of experiment. Experimental data showed that the heat transport limitation of PFC heat pipe was considerably low and mostly dependent on tube diameter, with the value of 440~500W for d$o$/=22.23mm and 150~200W for d$o$=15.88mm. The other parameters had negligible effects, except for the case of small charge ratio less than 30%. Some correlations proposed by previous studies were in agreement with data from this study within 10~30%.

In this paper, the shear behavior of soft filling in rectangular-hollow concrete specimens was simulated using the 2D particle flow code (PFC2D). The laboratory-measured properties were used to calibrate some PFC2D micro-properties for modeling the behavior of geo-materials. The dimensions of prepared and modeled samples were 100 mm×100 mm. Some disc type narrow bands were removed from the central part of the model and different lengths of bridge areas (i.e., the distance between internal tips of two joints) with lengths of 30 mm, 50 mm, and 70 mm were produced. Then, the middle of the rectangular hollow was filled with cement material. Three filling sizes with dimensions of 5 mm×5 mm, 10 mm×5 mm, and 15 mm×5 mm were provided for different modeled samples. The parallel bond model was used to calibrate and re-produce these modeled specimens. Therefore, totally, 9 different types of samples were designed for the shear tests in PFC2D. The shear load was gradually applied to the model under a constant loading condition of 3 MPa (σc/3). The loading was continued till shear failure occur in the modeled concrete specimens. It has been shown that both tensile and shear cracks may occur in the fillings. The shear cracks mainly initiated from the crack (joint) tips and coalesced with another one. The shear displacements and shear strengths were both increased as the filling dimensions increased (for the case of a bridge area with a particular fixed length).
