We have studied the effects of interface on polarization dependence of waveguide and designed the polarization independent 2-dimensional waveguides on InP for arrayed waveguide grating. To figure out the effects of interface on polarization dependence, we have solved the 1-dimensional wave equation using a transfer matrix method. It is shown that the birefringence becomes stronger as the number of interfaces increases. In order to design polarization independent 2-dimensional waveguides, we have used effective index method. The structures considered are ridge type, raised strip type, and buried type waveguide. In the cases of ridge and raised strip type, conventional effective index method was used. In the case of buried type corrected effective index method was used. We have determined the height and width of waveguides such that the waveguides become polarization independent.

Effects of radiation on the wall-friction and heat transfer in the convergent and divergent nozzle of a rocket motor are investigated in the present paper. Radiative heat transfer cools down the core gas, and the decrease in the gas temperature reduces the convective heat transfer on the wall. Radiation heat transfer is estimated by using mean-beam-length approach and core flow is assumed to be one-dimensional isentropic. The compressible thermal boundary layer is solved by a finite difference method. The Cebeci-Smith eddy viscosity model is adopted for the present study. Convective heat transfer is reduced at the throat of the nozzle and is almost compensated with an increase in radiative transfer. In the sequel total heat transfer rate is slightly reduced. However, radiation heat transfer is dominant in the converging part of the nozzle.

The flow characteristics around an elliptic cylinder with axis ratio of AR=2 located near a flat plate were investigated experimentally to study the interaction between the cylinder wake and the turbulent boundary layer. The pressure distributions on the cylinder surface and on the flat plate were measured with varying the angle of attack of the cylinder. In addition, the velocity profiles of wake behind the cylinder were measured using a hot-wire anemometry As the angle of attack increases, the location of peak pressure on the windward and leeward surfaces of the cylinder moves toward the rear and front of the cylinder, respectively. At positive angles of attack, the position of the minimum pressure on the flat plate surface is moved downstream, but it is moved upstream at negative angles of attack. With increasing the angle of attack, the vortex shedding frequency is gradually decreased and the critical angel of attack exists in terms of the gap ratio. By installing the elliptic cylinder at negative angle of attack, the turbulent boundary layer over the flat plate is disturbed more than that at positive incidence. This may be attributed to the shift of separation point on the lower surface of the cylinder according to the direction of the angle of attack.

The purpose of this study is to design a heat insulator for reducing available energy loss in stratified thermal storage tank. Heat insulator is operated by buoyancy effect from density difference between hot and cold water without extra equipment. Analysis model using the Matlab Simulink was developed to estimate the internal temperature distribution in thermal storage tank and also used to select proper material and thickness of the heat insulator. Operational feasibility was confirmed through reduced scale experiment. As a result, heat insulator can effectively delay the formation of thermal boundary layer between hot and cold water. In reduced scale experiment, heat insulator can preserve additional 1540J of available energy. When applied to the real thermal storage tank, increase of 6% thermal storage efficiency can be expected.

본 논문은 능동 구속층 감쇠(active constrained layer damping) 처리된 관의 동적 모델링과 정식화를 제시한다. 판의 운동방정식은 Hamilton정리를 이용하여 전개된 판, piezoelectric film 및 점탄성층의 운동방정식을 조합하므로서 유도된다. 이 운동방정식은 외부인가전압의 영향하에서 적층판의 해석적 모델을 제공할 뿐만이 아니라, 판 구조내에서 진동에너지를 감소시킬 수 있는 전단층의 효과에 대한 변위관계식을 나타낸다. 그리고 운동방정식에 대응하는 경계조건도 유도되었다. 또한 판과 능동구속층감쇠계의 동특성을 설명하기 위한 유한요소모델이 유도되었다. 이 모델의 타당성을 실온조건에서 실험적으로 입증하였다. 개발된 이론 및 실험적인 결과들은 판과 능동구속층 감쇠계가 구조진동의 감쇠를 위한 매우 유효한 수단으로 사용될 수 있음을 나타내었다.

Two experiments were conducted to examine how additional dotted lines and peripheral stimulus to the caf$\grave{e}$ wall illusion affect on the degree of perceived tilt (amount of illusion) and confidency of illusionary perception. The experiment 1 tested the effects of adding mortar (solid line) and bright contrast dotted lines to the borderline of 3 layers of blocks, which are consisted of black and white blocks. On the experiment 2, effects of adding peripheral stimulus on caf$\grave{e}$ wall illusion were tested. The results of experiment 1 showed that adding dotted line on the borderline mortar between blocks has additive effects on confidency of illusory perception. However, no effect on perceived amount of illusion was noted. On the other hand according to the results of experiment 2, adding blocks did increase amount, but not confidency of illusory perception. These results imply that the perception of caf$\grave{e}$ wall illusion is related with response of orientation selective neurons.

중대사고시 원자로 압력용기내 또는 원자로 공동(cavity) 내에서의 노심용융물은 주입되는 물로 인하여 물과 접촉하는 표면이 냉각되면서 피막층(crust)이 형성된다. 이러한 피막층의 형성은 노심용융물과 냉각수 사이의 열전달 현상에 영향을 미치며 중대사고 발생시 사고 진행에 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 용융물의 피막층 형성의 해석모델을 수립하기 위해 전이현상과 전도와 대류를 포함하는 2차원 열전달과 상변화를 수반하는 문제를 포함하는 운동량방정식과 에너지방정식을 2차원으로 구성하였으며 에너지방정식은 엔탈피의 함수로 나타내었다. 그리고 이러한 2차원 지배방정식을 해석하기 위해 유한차분법 및 SIMPIER 알고리즘을 이용하였다. 비교대상으로는 한국원자력연구소에서 수행한 냉각수의 비등과 기체주입 효과가 고려되지 않은 실험을 대상으로 하였다. 계산결과 용융물의 피막층은 파동(wave) 형태로 형성되었으며 일정시간이 경과하면 변화가 없는 안정한 상태가 되었다. 용융물 내에서의 온도분포는 액체상태일 경우에는 하부가열면과 상변화가 일어나는 경계면부근을 제외하고는 거의 일정한 온도분포를 나타내고 있으며 용융물이 고화된 피막층에서는 급격한 온도변화를 보여주고 있다.

Recent experimental data shows that the noticeable feature of irregular roughened spots on the fuel surface occurs during the combustion test. The generation of these unexpected patterns is likely to be resulted from the disturbed boundary layer due caused by wall blowing which is intended to simulate the process of fuel vaporization. LES without chemical reaction was conducted to investigate the flow characteristics at the near-fuel surface and the behavior of turbulent structures which is evolved by the wall blowing at the Reynolds number of 23,000. Cylindrical geometry was considered to get the most reality of the calculation results because real hybrid rocket motor is circular grain configuration. It was shown that the wall blowing pushed turbulent structures upwards making them tilted and this skewed displacement, in effect, left the foot prints of the structures on the surface. This change of kinematics may explain the formation of irregular isolated spots on the fuel surface observed in the experiment.

To examine adequacy of existing multi-layer elastic analysis of layer interface conditions, this study compared outputs of finite element analysis and multi-layer elastic analysis as vertical load was applied to the surface of asphalt pavements. Structural pavement analysis considering influence of a horizontal load was also carried out in order to simulate passing vehicle loads under various interface conditions using ABAQUS, a three dimensional finite element program. Pavement performance depending on interface conditions was quantitatively evaluated and fundamental study of layer interface effect was performed in this study. As results of the study, if only vertical load is applied, subdivision of either fully bonded or fully unbonded is enough to indicate interface condition. On the other hand, when horizontal load is applied with vertical load, pavement behavior and performance are greatly changed with respect to layer interface condition.
