Modern aircraft are high-performance and lightweight. Thus, the characteristics of the flexible structure appear and affect flight performance or limit it. These flexible characteristics need to be analyzed from the early stages of aircraft design. To this end, a program to analyze the dynamic and static behavior of flexible aircraft has been developed and the results are presented. Based on the multi-body dynamics simulation technique, rigid flight mechanics, structural vibrating behavior, and unsteady aerodynamics have been developed and integrated. Lastly, the level flight and the turn flight of the flexible characteristic aircraft have been analyzed using this integrated simulation program.

In this work the mechanical behaviors of GaN nanowires are analyzed during tension, compression, and unloading deformations. The thermal conductivity of the nanowires at each deformed state is evaluated using an equilibrium Green-Kubo approach. Under tensile loading, the [0001]-oriented nanowires with hexagonal cross-sections undergo a phase transformation from wurtzite to a tetragonal structure. The phase transformation is not observed under compressive loading. The thermal conductivity decreases on going from compressive strains to tensile strains. The strain dependence of the thermal conductivity results from the relaxation time of phonon. A reverse transformation from the tetragonal structure to the wurtzite structure is observed during unloading. The thermal conductivities in the intermediate states are lower than the conductivity in the wurtzite structure at same strain. Such differences in the thermal conductivity between different atomic structures are mainly due to changes in the group velocity of phonon.

In this study, the computational structural dynamic modeling of floating offshore wind turbine system is presented using efficient equivalent modeling technique. Structural dynamic behaviors of the offshore floating platform with 5MW wind turbine system have been analyzed using computational multi-body dynamics based on the finite element method. The considered platform configuration of the present offshore wind turbine model is the typical spar-buoy type. Equivalent stiffness and damping properties of the floating platform were extracted from the results of the baseline model. Dynamic responses for the floating wind turbine models are presented and compared to investigate its structural dynamic characteristics. It is important shown that the results of the present equivalent modeling technique show good and reasonable agreements with those by the fully coupled analysis considering complex floating body dynamics.

Having a de Broglie wavelength of a few ${\AA}$ with its corresponding energies in the range of a few to a few hundreds meV, neutrons are ideally suited for the studies of structure and dynamics in condensed matter research. Neutron scattering has been developed over the past 60 years or so and become a very mature and established experimental technique in the very broad range of material sciences. In this short introductory article, we have explained its working principles and provided few selected examples of application.

본 연구는 분자동역학 전산모사를 통하여 나일론 6 고분자재료 및 나이론 6 고분자재료를 기지재료로 사용하는 나노복합재에 대하여 인장하중을 부여하고, 인장에 의하여 발생하는 구조적 변화 및 물질의 구조적 특성과 열전도 특성 사이의 상관관계를 규명하였다. 나노복합재의 열전도특성을 변화시키는 주요 인자로는 나노입자, 인장에 의한 고분자 사슬의 배열 변화, 자유부피(free volume)의 변화이다. 고분자 사슬이 열전달 방향으로 배열될 경우 음양자(phonon)의 흐름을 가속화하여 열전도특성이 증가하며, 반면 자유부피의 증가는 음양자의 산란을 증가시켜 열전도특성이 저하된다. 따라서 서로 상반작용을 하는 두 인자가 복합적으로 작용하여 열전도 특성을 결정한다. 인장 하중이 부여됨에 따라 시스템의 열전도특성이 증가하며, 각 시스템의 증가 정도는 시스템의 구조적 특성에 따라 서로 다르다.

This paper proposed a new 2-D multi-body dynamic modeling technique to analyze overriding behaviors taking place during train collision. This dynamic model is composed of nonlinear springs, dampers and masses by considering the deformable characteristics of carbodies as well as energy absorbing structures and components. By solving this dynamic model for rollingstock, energy absorbing capacities of collision elements, accelerations of passenger sections, impact forces applied to interconnecting devices, and overriding displacements can be well estimated. For a case study, we chose KHST (Korean High Speed Train), obtained crush characteristic data of each carbody section from 3-D finite element analysis, and established a 2-D multi-body dynamic model. This 2-D dynamic model was simulated under the train-to-train collision scenarios, and evaluated with 3-D virtual testing model. It was founded from the simulation results that this 2-D dynamic model could well predict overriding behaviors, and the modeling technique of carbody deformation was very important in overriding estimation.

The failure behavior of structures is changed under different loading rates, which might arise from the rate dependency of materials. This phenomenon has been focused in the engineering fields. However, the failure mechanism is not fully understood yet, so that it is hard to be implemented in numerical simulations. In this study, the numerical experiments to a brittle material are simulated by the Molecular Dynamics (MD) for understanding the rate dependent failure behavior. The material specimen with a notch is modeled for the compact tension test simulation. Lennard-Jones potential is used to describe the properties of a brittle material. Several dynamic failure features under 6 different loading rates are achieved from the numerical experiments, where remarkable characteristics such as crack roughness, crack recession/arrest, and crack branching are observed during the crack propagation. These observations are interpreted by the energy inflow-consumption rates. This study will provides insight about the dynamic failure mechanism under different loading rates. In addition, the applicability of the MD to the macroscopic mechanics is estimated by simulating the previous experimental research.
