The purpose of this paper is to analyze the electromagnetic field characteristics of array antenna with the finite difference-time domain algorithm. Finite difference equations of Maxwell's equations are defined in cylindrical coordinate systems. To simulate the unbounded problem like a free space, the Mur's absorbing boundary condition is also used. After modeling the array antenna with the grid structure, the transient response of the field distribution is depicted in the time domain.

본 논문에서는 광대역 소음원의 위치를 탐지하여 2차원 영상면에 소음원을 영상화할 수 있는 3차원 마이크로폰 배열을 제안하였다. 배열요소간의 상호상관함수가 2차원 영상면의 화소의 밝기에 대응되도록 영상함수를 유도하였으며 영상면은 사각면 및 원통면등으로 선택 가능 하도록 하여 소음원의 위치동정 해석이 용이하도록 하였다. 몇가지 소음원에 대한 수치 모의 실험결과는 제안된 배열이 소음제어 분야 등에 응용 될 수 있음을 보인다.

In this article, an advanced cooling surface based on micro-post arrays with non-homogeneous configurations is investigated and compared with conventional micro-post arrays with homogeneous configuration. The capillary performance of micro-post arrays are characterized using the capillary rate of rise experiments and numerical simulations which take into account the meniscus curvature. The experimental and numerical results show that that the capillary performance of the micro-post wick can be significantly enhanced, compared with the homogeneous type wick, by employing non-homogeneous configurations. The capillary performance is shown to be primarily a function of the solid fraction and increases linearly with decreasing solid fraction, regardless of the wick configuration, when the solid fraction is larger than 0.25. However, the capillary performance is found to be significantly reduced when the solid fraction falls below approximately 0.25.

A modified electrical resistivity survey has been suggested and applied to a leakage detection problem of concrete barrage. We suggest the modified electrical resistivity methods using electrodes floating on the water and apply line current sources instead of conventional point current sources in order to facilitate simple analysis. In addition, the study introduced the following three variations of modified electrode array: Direct potential array, Parallel potential array and Cross potential array. These arrays were tested and investigated through numerical experiment, physical model experiment and geophysical field exploration in order to verify their applicability to the water leakage detection of a concrete barrage. When water leakage occurred, all kind of array operations demonstrated distinct changes of aspects of potential difference in graphs obtained by not only the numerical and physical model experiments but also geophysical field exploration. Therefore, this modified electrode arrays of electrical resistivity survey, which has been adapted to the concrete barrage, has been found to be a useful method to detect water leakage.

시멘트를 기초로하는 복합재료의 파괴거동은 주균열이 진행하기 이전에 파괴진행영역이라고 하는 미세균열대가 콘크리트 내부에 형성고기 때문에 선형파괴역하게 입각하여 해석하게 되면 실험치와 상당한 차이를 나타낸다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 가상균열모델이나 균열띠 모델, 두 파라메터 파괴모델 등 비선형해석에 따른 여러 파괴역학모델들이 제안되었으나 이들 모델들은 2차원 해석에 근거를 두고 있기 때문에 구조체의 두께 방향으로 동일한 균열이 형성되며, 특히 콘크리트 실험에서 관찰되는 비연속적 균열발생에 대해서 설며이 어려웠다. 이에 본 연구는 콘크리트를하나의 다종복합체로 가정하고 연립변형모드 및 진행파괴모드 방향으로 구성재료를 배열한 상태에서 가상균열 이론에 근거한 비선형해석방법으로 모델링하였다. 진행파괴모드로 구성재료를 배열하면 강성이 높은 구성재료를 통과하여 균열이 진행될 때 균열선단으로부터 분포된 응력이 상층의 허용인장강도를 초과하게 되어 균열이 발생되며 이러한 균열은점진적인 균열진행과는 달리 비연속 동시 발생 균열ㄹ로 나타났다. 본 연구는 진행파괴모드에서의 파괴 해석 방법과연립변형모드에서의 해석 방법을 제시하였으며, 해석결과를 실험결과와 비교함으로써 검증하였다.

Bridges are designed and constructed as infrastructures in order to overcome topographical obstructions for fast and smooth transfer of human/material resources. Therefore the shape and size of piers constructed along the longitudinal bridge axis should be restricted by topographical conditions. Action forces of connections and piers are affected by pier shapes and sizes together with connection arrangement which decides load carrying path under earthquakes. In this study a typical bridge is modelled with steel bearings and reinforced concrete piers and seismic analyses are performed with analysis models with different arrangement of steel bearings and piers. From analysis results ductile failure mechanisms for all analysis models are checked based on strength/action force ratios of steel bearings and pier columns. In this way the influences of arrangement of connections and piers on the earthquake resistant capacity of typical bridges are figured out in view of forming ductile failure mechanism.

A Heat Recovery Steam Generator(HRSG) is the main component of a Combined Cycle Power Plant(CCPP). It is a very large structure that is made from relatively thin metal sheets. Therefore, the structural integrity of an HRSG is very important to ensure safe operation during plant lifetime. In particular, thermal deformation and thermal fatigue have been revealed as the main causes of the mechanical degradation of an HRSG. In order to prevent unexpected damage, safety evaluation based on a large-scale analysis is necessary. Therefore, this study aims to improve the safety of HRSG by using Finite Element Analysis(FEA) results derived from large-scale analysis. Furthermore, the modified design is verified by comparing it with the original one. This result will be used as basic data for improving the safety of a vertical-type HRSG.

Two main characteristics of VBR MPEG video traffic are different statistics according to different picture types and the periodic traffic pattern due to GOP structure. Especially, the I-pictures at the beginning of each GOP generate $$\mu$h more traffic than other pictures. When several VBR Mpeg video sources are superposed, the I-picture starting times of these sources may significantly affect the cell loss characteristics of ATM $$\mu$tiplexers. In this paper, we propse a performance model for ATM $$\mu$tiplexers with VBR MPEG video sources whose starting times are arbitrary given. For analysis, both single and superposed source traffic are modeled as NDPPs (non-deterministic periodic processes), and the ATM $$\mu$tiplexer is modeled as a U-state NDPPD/D/1/B queueing system. It is hown that the numerical results are very close to the si$$\mu$ation results. From the relationships between the starting tiem distributions and the corresponding $$\mu$tiplexer performances, some considerations for designing a scheduling policy in order to obtain the maxi$$\mu$ $$\mu$tiplexing gain are presented.

In this paper, mechanical behavior of unidirectional composites with flexible matrix was predicted by geometrical non-linear finite element analysis. Two typical idealized unit cells of square and hexagonal fiber arrays were modeled and these were subjected to different loadings. The stress-strain behavior of composites was predicted from which the effective properties were calculated. The hyperelasticity of polyurethane matrix was considered using Mooney-Rivlin model. In result, the stress-strain behavior of flexible composites shows non-linearity, especially it is remarkable under transverse normal and shear loading conditions. In this cases, there are great difference between square and hexagonal fiber array models.

A numerical program has been developed to model 2-D resistivity responses for a pole-pole array configuration in cross-hole resistivity measurements. Apparent resistivity and secondary potential were computed using the program for a cylindrical inhomogeneity in an uniform host medium excited by a point source of current in a borehole. Surprisingly apparent resistivity in the receiver hole turns out to be lower than the one of surrounding medium regardless of the conductivity of cylindrical inhomogeneity. Using only cross-hole data, therefore, it is impossible to interpret the conductivity of inhomogeneity. To overcome this problem, 3-D measurement and interpretation are necessary. If 3-D data acquisition is impossible, inline data should be used to get the information about the conductivity of inhomogeneity.
