The past several years have witnessed an ever-increasing acceptance and adoption of parallel processing, both for high performance scientific computing as well as for more general purpose applications. Furthermore with increasing needs to perform the complex flow calculations in an efficient manner, the use of the message passing model on distributed networks has emerged as an important alternative to the expensive supercomputers. This work attempts to provide a generic framework to enable the parallelization of all CFD-related works using the master-slave model. This framework consists of (1) input geometry, (2) domain decomposition, (3) grid generation, (4) flow computations, (5) flow visualization, and (6) output display as the sequential components, but performs computations for (2) to (5) in parallel on the workstation clustering. The flow computations are parallized by having multiple copies of the flow-code to solve a PDE on different spatial regions on different processors, while their flow data are exchanged across the region boundaries, and the solution is time-stepped. The Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) is used for distributed communication in this work.

The shock separation test simulates the environmental effects of the spacecraft separation from launch vehicle. The shock separation test for a structural model of KOMPSAT-Ⅱ(Korea Multi-Purpose SATellite Ⅱ) was performed in SITC(Satellite Integration ＆ Test Center) launch environmental test hall at KARI(Korea Aerospace Research Institute) to verify the shock test requirement of the spacecraft, to predict the induced acceleration responses on the primary structures and payloads by the explosion of pyre-lock and to perform mechanical fit check. The spacecraft with S/A was mated vertically to LV(Launch Vehicle) adapter simulator via a clamp band, then hoisted and suspended above a foam test bed by four isolation springs secured to the spacecraft hoist fittings to isolate the payload platform shock wave from the sling elements. For separation process, real pyre-devices were used and the time response signals from 60 accelerometers installed on the interested points was acquired and recorded. The SRS responses for each response channels were calculated and the achieved SRS's on the separation plane was reviewed and evaluated in comparison to the ICD(Interface Control Document) value.

Electromechanical model for analyzing a multimodal piezoelectric energy harvester comprising three connected beams is presented in this paper. This system consists of three beams which are connected alternately. The piezoelectric layer is only attached to the middle beam. With this special structural configuration, the first, second, and third natural frequencies are congregated so that the energy harvester can generate meaningful amount of power consistently when the main frequency component of the excitation varies around the lowest three natural frequencies of the harvester. To investigate the dynamic and electric response of the piezoelectric energy harvester, an electromechanical model is developed using the Kane's method and the accuracy of the model is validated by comparing the results obtained with the model with those obtained with the commercial software ANSYS. The results show that the piezoelectric energy harvester comprising three connected beams has much broader power generating frequency range than that of the conventional piezoelectric energy harvester.

The present study considers the thermal structure variation in a porous medium caused by changing the most important radiative property of porous medium, absorption coefficient, as well as altering the physical dimension of porous medium and the equivalence ratio of premixed gas mixture. The radiation model was introduced as an unsteady differential form using the two-flux gray radiation model. The role of the conductive heat transfer through both gas phase and porous medium was found to be almost insignificant compared with that of the radiative heat transfer. The reaction zone shifted upstream and the flame thickness decreased as either the geometrical length of porous medium increased or the absorption coefficient decreased.

The mechanical properties of the most widely used cryogenic materials, i.e. austenitic stainless steel (ASS), aluminum alloy and invar steel, strongly depend on temperatures and strain rates. These phenomena show very complicated non-linear behaviors and cannot be expressed by general constitutive equation. In this study, an unified constitutive equation was proposed to represent the effect of temperature and strain rate on the materials. The proposed constitutive equation has been based on Tomita/Iwamoto and Bodner/Partom model for the expression of 2nd hardening due to martensite phase transformation of ASS. To simulate ductile fracture, modified Bodner/Chan damage model was additionally applied to the model and the model validity was verified by comparison of experimental and simulation results.

The main objective of this research effort was to develope the performance of C/SiC composites manufactured by LSI (Liquid Silicon Infiltration) method for solid and liquid rocket propulsion system and ensure the performance analysis technique. The various carbon preform were manufactured by filament winding, tape rolling, involute layup and stack molding process. For the best performance of thermal and mechanical properties, many process conditions were tested and selected by varying preform, the content of SiC, temperature, impregnation resin and chemical vapour reaction. In conclusion, the high performance and reliability of C/SiC composite were proved for solid and liquid rocket propulsion system. And the performance analysis technique related to mathematical ablation model was originated.

계면활성제는 수용액에서 미셀을 형성함에 있어서 자기확산이 분자 운동과 상변화에 대하여 자세한 정보를 제공하고 공업적으로 응용할 수 있는 기술이 점차 증가하고 있다. 계면활성제가 미셀을 형성함에 있어 자기확산 정도는 화학구조의 변화성과 상호 결합 및 회합현상에 매우 민감한 것은 사실이다. 특히 계면활성제 용액의 넓은 범위의 분자 시스템과 콜로이드 상태의 변화성은 다향한 물리, 화학적 성질에 기여됨이 많다. 더욱이 미셀 형성에서 자기확산 계수는 분자 치환에 직간접적으로 상호관계가 있어 NMR 분광학에서 스핀 이완속도의 해석과 분자의 재배열, 스핀 이완에 대한 모델선정 등에 많은 관심을 갖는다. 그중 미셀형성에 있어서 자기확산에 대한 측정 방법중 가장 많이 이용되고 있는 Fourier Transform Pulsed Gradient Spin Echo(FT-PGSE) 측정법은 계면활성제의 미셀형성에 대한 상변화성 및 물리, 화학적 성질을 다루는데 새로운 도구로 제공되고 있다. 이는 이 계통의 기술적 측정방법에 있어서 적절한 개선과 새로운 응용분야를 확장하는데 있어서 많은 가능성을 갖고있다. 그리하여 이들에 대한 역사적 배경과 기초적인 이론을 가지고 미셀 형성에 있어 자기확산에 대한 개념을 말하고 그에 대한 응용성을 계통적으로 설명하고자 한다.

The nitrogen adsorption method was used to evaluate the change fine pore structure of concrete under high temperature. The mechanical properties and chloride ion diffusion coefficient were also measured. Two dimension FEM model for the life expectancy of RC structure was built considering the effect of high temperature. The porosity under 0.01${\mu}m$ decreased in proportion to the temperature. However, that of $0.01{\mu}m{\sim}0.1{\mu}m$ increased. The strength decreased and the chloride ion diffusion coefficient increased in the temperature range of $200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$.

This paper presents the implementation of wide-band RFIC amplifier operating from near 50 MHz to 3 GHz using Tachyonics SiGe HBT foundry. Voltage shunt feedback is used for the flat gain and the broad band impedance matching. Initial design parameters are calculated through the low frequency small signal analysis. Since the HBT model was not available at the design time, discrete tuning board was made for fine adjustment in the low frequency range. Fabricated amplifier shows 12 dB gain with 1 dB fluctuation and P1 dB reaches 15 dBm at 850 MHz.

Number of components and payload systems installed in satellites were found to be exposed to various disturbance sources such as the reaction wheel assembly, the control moment gyro, coolers, and others. A micro-level of vibration can introduce jitter problems into an optical payload system and cause significant degradation of the image quality. Moreover, the prediction of on-orbit vibration effects on the performance of optical payloads during the development process is always important. However, analyzing interactions between subsystems and predicting the vibration level of the payloads is extremely difficult. Therefore, this paper describes the analytical and experimental approach to microvibration effects on satellite optical payload performance with integrated jitter analysis frame-work, microvibration emulator and satellite structure testbed.
