In this study, the stabilization of an edge flame and the intensity variation of a diffusion branch were investigated using a multi-slot combustor under conditions of high temperature and small fuel-concentration gradient (FCG). The combustor consists of three narrow channels: a quartz channel and two side-heating combustors. For the accuracy of this experimental study, quantitative analysis was carried out for each boundary condition. Stable edge flames could be observed under high-temperature conditions by controlling the FCG and fuel dilution ratio. Moreover, it was found that the intensity of the diffusion flame was increased by increasing the temperature of the mixture. On the contrary, the intensity of the diffusion flame was decreased by increasing the dilution ratio. It was also found that a propane flame is more sensitively affected by these experimental parameters than a methane flame.

원자력발전소의 1차 계통에서 오염된 장비들을 취급이 용이하고 안전하게 운반하기 위한 운반용기는 내부의 방사성 물질에 대한 방사능 평가에 의하여 방사성물질 A형 운반용기로 분류된다. 방사성물질 A형 운반용기는 IAEA Safety Standard Series No. ST-1 및 국내 원자력법 등 관련규정의 기술기준을 만족하여야 하는데, 운반용기는 중량에 따라 0.3∼1.2m의 높이에서 소성이 일어나지 않는 단단한 바닥면으로 가장 심각한 손상을 주는 방향으로 낙하시키는 정상운반조건(normal transport conditions)에 대하여 구조적 건전성을 유지하여야 한다. 여기서는 ABAQUS/Explicit 코드를 이용하여 컨테이너형태의 A형 운반용기에 대하여 최대손상이 야기되는 0.9m 경사낙하조건에 대한 3차원 충격해석을 수행하고 구조적 건전성을 평가하였는데, 운반용기는 경사낙하시 코너피팅(corner fitting)의 분쇄(crush)에 의하여 대부분의 충격을 흡수하였으며 운반용기의 격납경계는 구조적 건전성을 유지하였다.

To protect the underground pipeline from the mechanical damage and to enhance the cathodic protection effect, the river sand has been backfilled traditionally around the buried pipeline. However, river sand became depleted and expensive. One has to seek for the economic alternative materials. Crashed stone is a good candidate for the backfill material. In this study, how much the particle size and shape of the crashed stone can effect on the gas pipeline coating was examined. A series of laboratory and field test was performed. In the Lab, the increasing loads were applied to the coated pipeline surrounded by the crashed stone, where no significant damage was observed.

It is essential for the accurate time-domain prediction of broadband noise due to turbulence-cascade interaction to develop inflow/outflow boundary conditions to satisfy the following three requirements: to maintain the back ground mean flow, to nonreflect the outgoing disturbances and to generate the specified input gust. The preceding study(1) showed that Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) boundary condition was successfully applied to absorb the outgoing disturbances and to generate the specified gust in the time-domain computations of broadband noise due to interaction of incident gust with a cascade of flat-plates. In present study, PML boundary condition is extended in order to predict steady mean flow that is needed for the computation of noise due to interaction of incident gust with a cascade of airfoils. PML boundary condition is originally designed to absorb flow disturbances superimposed on the steady meanflow in the buffer zone. However, the steady meanflow must be computed before PML boundary condition is applied on the flow computation. In the present paper, PML equations are extended by introducing source term to maintain desired mean flow conditions. The extended boundary condition is applied to the benchmark problem where the meanflow around a cascade of airfoils is predicted. These illustrative computations reveal that the extended PML equations can effectively provide and maintain the target meanflow.

Mathematical modeling on the corrosion of the steel casing and main pipe due to the protection current resulting from a cathodic protection system was carried out using boundary element method. The model is consisted of Laplace's equation with non-linear boundary conditions(Tafel equations) and the iterative technique to determine the miexed potential of the steel casing. The model is applied to the normal steel casing section as well as abnormal one with defects such as metal touch and insulation defects. From the modeling procedure, we can calculate the potential distributions and current density distributions of the system. The theoretical results of the qualitatiive corrosion aspect along the steel casing and main pipe agree well with the experimental results within the experimental conditions studied.

This paper provides a novel extended Moving Least Squares(MLS) difference method for the potential problem with weak and strong discontinuities. The conventional MLS difference method is enhanced with jump functions such as step function, wedge function and scissors function to model discontinuities in the solution and the derivative fields. When discretizing the governing equations, additional unknowns are not yielded because the jump functions are decided from the known interface condition. The Poisson type PDE's are discretized by the difference equations constructed on nodes. The system of equations built up by assembling the difference equations are directly solved, which is very efficient. Numerical examples show the excellence of the proposed numerical method. The method is expected to be applied to various discontinuity related problems such as crack problem, moving boundary problem and interaction problems.

The solution to a liquid sloshing problem is challenge to the field of engineering. This is not only because the dynamic boundary condition at the free surface is nonlinear, but also because the position of the free surface varies with time in a manner not known a priori. Therefore, this nonlinear phenomenon, which is characterized by the oscillation of the unrestrained free surface of the fluid, is a difficult mathematical problem to solve numerically and analytically. In this study, three-dimensional boundary element method(BEM), which is based on the so-called an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian(ALE) approach for the fluid flow problems with a free surface, was formulated to solve the behavior of the nonlinear free surface motion. An ALE-BEM has the advantage to track the free surface along any prescribed paths by using only one displacement variable, even for a three-dimensional problem. Also, some numerical examples were presented to demonstrate the validity and the applicability of the developed procedure.

본 논문에서는 프레임간 압축 영상의 열화 과정의 모델과, 동영상에 존재하는 블록화 현상을 제거하는 방법을 제안한다 BDCT기반으로 압축된 정지영상은 DCT계수를 양자화 하는 과정이 블록별로 처리되기 때문에, 블록 경계에 불연속이 발생한다. 동영상의 경우 블록 경계에서 불연속이 발생 할 뿐만 아니라 움직임 보상과정이 합쳐진 혼성 구조로 되어 있어서 블록 내부에서도 불연속이 존재하게 된다. 블록 영계만을 생각한 기존의 처리방법은 동영상의 처리에 있어 적합하지 못하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 효율적인 블록화 현상 제거를 위해, 양방향 움직임 보상과 반화소 정밀도를 이용한 새로운 평활화 제약조건을 구성하고 차분 영역에서의 정규화 방법을 이용한 알고리듬을 제안한다.

유체 시뮬레이션은 Navier-Stoke 방정식의 해를 구하는 과정으로 볼 수 있는데, 이 방정식은 초기 조건 및 주변 환경에 따라 매우 민감하게 반응하기 때문에 사용자가 원하는 형태로 제어하는 것이 매우 어려운 일이다. 본 논문에서는 유체의 움직임을 실제 공간에 임베드된 smooth manifold 위로 제한하고, 유체의 움직임을 manifold의 모양에 의해 직관적으로 제어하는 방법을 제안한다. 제어 manifold 안의 유체의 흐름을 자연스럽게 유지하기 위하여 경계에 가상의 중력장을 설정하여 유체가 경계면에서 자연스럽게 내부로 유도되도록 하였다. 본 논문의 유체 제어 방법은 제어 manifold의 모양을 키프레임 보간함으로써 간접적으로 유체 애니메이션의 키프레임 애니메이션으로 만드는 것도 가능하다. 이 과정에서 제어 manifold의 변형에 의한 유체정보를 재구성이 필요한데, 본 연구에서는 그리드의 재샘플링을 통해 해결하는 방법을 제시하였다.
