The integral equation method is a powerful tool for electromagnetic numerical modeling. But the difficulty of this technique is the size of their linear equations, which demands excessive memory and calculation time to invert. This limitation of the integral equation method becomes critical in inverse problem. To overcome this limitation, a lot of approximation and series methods, such as conventional Born, modifed Born and extended Born, were developed. But all the methods need volume integration of Green tensor, which is very time consuming. In electromagnetic theory, Green tensor rapidly decreases as the distance between source and field cell increases. Therefore, the source cell which are far away from the field cell does not make an effect on the electric field of the field cell. Consequently, by ignoring the effect of Green tensor due to far away source cells, computing time for electromagnetic numerical modeling can be reduced dramatically. Comparisons of this new method against a full integral equation, extended Born approximation and series code show that the method is accurate enough much less time consuming.

This paper, A large hair dryer was developed to shorten the drying time of the user's hair. The mechanism that determines the strength and stability of large hair dryer products is 'motor'. In a typical hair dryer to determine the wind speed using a 5V or 12V DC motor, Outer air vents are also great ways to use a long time, power consumption by a single blow. But, In the case of large hair dryers using multiple blows, the aim is to reduce the power consumption by increasing the intensity of the wind speed in a short time. Looking at the simulation results of a typical hair dryer, It was found that women spent an average of 20 minutes and that large hair dryers took an average of 5 minutes. This paper, In order to shorten the average drying time, it is necessary to determine the efficiency of the motor, the blow position of the outer frame, and the power consumption and studied for product development. As a result of the research and simulation, the power consumption is 0.8 times, the wind speed is 1.5 times, and the drying time is about 5 minutes. Therefore, it was found that the large hair dryer developed in this study can maximize the user 's average drying time and the efficiency of the motor.

In the present work the elastic-plastic FE formulations using dynamic explicit time integration schemes are used for numerical analysis of a large auto-body panel stamping processes. For analyses of more complex cases with larger and more refined meshes, the explicit method is more time effective than implicit method, and has no convergency problem and has the robust nature of contact and friction algorithms while implicit method is widely used because of excellent accuracy and reliability. The elastic-plastic scheme is more reliable and rigorous while the rigid-plastic scheme require small computation time. In finite element simulation of auto-body panel stamping processes, the roobustness and stability of computation are important requirements since the computation time and convergency become major points of consideration besides the solution accuracy due to the complexity of geometry conditions. The performnce of the dynamic explicit algorithms are investigated by comparing the simulation results of formaing of complicate shaped autobody parts, such as a fuel tank and a rear hinge, with the experimental results. It has been shown that the proposed dynamic explicit elastic-plastic finite element method enables an effective computation for complicated auto-body panel stamping processes.

This paper presents a weight adjusted association rule mining algorithm (WARM). Assigning weights to each strategic factor and normalizing raw scores within each strategic factor are the key ideas of the presented algorithm. It is an extension of the earlier algorithm TSAA (transitive support association Apriori) and strategic importance is reflected by considering factors such as profit, marketing value, and customer satisfaction of each item. Performance analysis based on a real world database has been made and comparison of the mining outcomes obtained from three association rule mining algorithms (Apriori, TSAA, and WARM) is provided. The result indicates that each algorithm gives distinct and characteristic behavior in association rule mining.

For guaranteeing for security of nuclear power plant, ergonomic factors have been applied to design of main control room, core area for management and control of nuclear power plant, but design elements for performance of operators have been ignored. As the behaviors of operators are important for security of nuclear power plant, space design which makes them pleasant psychologically and makes them maintain attention on security equipments ceaselessly is required. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze space characteristics of main control rooms according to regulations of nuclear power plant and general guidelines of space design, and to offer basic data for designing of main control room which makes operators pleasant psychologically and physically. At first, theoretical issues related with design of main control room are reviewed and several premises of space are developed by abstracting design elements from common space and regulations of nuclear power plant and, then integrating each design elements interactively. In short, the improvement of system environment based on human-machine interface space has brought about perceptual, cognitive, and spatial changes and has realized next generation of main control rooms. And, differences and similarities between ordinary space and main control room, which ergonomic sizes and regulations are applied and is VDT environment based on LDP, are discussed in relation to 13 design elements and 17 space premise.

Finite element analyses were performed on large-sized (>5000 ton) stainless steel circular water reservoirs subjected to earthquake loading for different stainless steel materials. The earthquake load inputs for the analyses were selected by the guidelines in the Korean Standards Association specification KS B 6283. Seismic effects can be heavily dependent on water capacity, especially for large reservoirs. The numerical results show the interactions between the different load combinations and other parameters such as the water capacity and stainless steel materials. Structural performance is also evaluated for the various load combinations.

In this paper the feasibility of Nondestructive Damage Detection (NDD) in large structures is demonstrated via simulating vibration monitoring of such structures. The theory of NDD for truss type structures is formulated. To examine the feasibility of the theory, a finite element model of a 3-D truss structure, which consists of sixteen bays and includes 246 elements, is developed to simulate damage. Four damage cases are simulated numerically and the cases range from the structure being damaged in one location to the structure being damaged in three locations. For the given modal parameters, this study reveals very good results for small amounts of damage as well as large damage.
