Purpose: The objective of this work to construct eigenvalue maps that have information of magnitude of three primary diffusion directions using diffusion tensor images. Materials and Methods: To construct eigenvalue maps, we used a 3.0T MRI scanner. We also compared the Moore-Penrose pseudo-inverse matrix method and the SVD (single value decomposition) method to calculate magnitude of three primary diffusion directions. Eigenvalue maps were constructed by calculating of magnitude of three primary diffusion directions. We did investigate the relationship between eigenvalue maps and fractional anisotropy map. Results: Using Diffusion Tensor Images by diffusion tensor imaging sequence, we did construct eigenvalue maps of three primary diffusion directions. Comparison between eigenvalue maps and Fractional Anisotropy map shows what is difference of Fractional Anisotropy value in brain anatomy. Furthermore, through the simulation of variable eigenvalues, we confirmed changes of Fractional Anisotropy values by variable eigenvalues. And Fractional anisotropy was not determined by magnitude of each primary diffusion direction, but it was determined by combination of each primary diffusion direction. Conclusion: By construction of eigenvalue maps, we can confirm what is the reason of fractional anisotropy variation by measurement the magnitude of three primary diffusion directions on lesion of brain white matter, using eigenvalue maps and fractional anisotropy map.

현재 기술적및 경제적으로 입증된 동력로로는 미국에서 연구개발된 비등수형 원자로(BWR)와 가압수형 원자로(PWR), 그리고 카나다에서 개발된 중수감속 비등경 수냉각로(CANDU-BLW)등 사종을 들 수 있다. 1970년대 중기에는 한국에서도 최초의 원자력발전소가 가동될 전망이므로 상기 제종의 기술성, 경제성, 안정성등을 조사연구해야 될 것이다. 우선 지면관계로 가장 우리의 흥미를 끄는 PWR에 대하여 그 기술적 개발현황과 앞으로의 전망에 관하여 분석 검토코저 한다.

본 연구에서는 임의의 순간에서 난류유동장의 난류구조를 해석하기 위하여 Lumley의 특성 에디 분배법을 이용하였다. 이때 난류구조의 해석은 비등질성의 K-L 전개와 등질성의 푸리에 전개로 표현하여 그 수렴성, 레이놀즈 수의 영향 등 여러가지 특성을 연구하였다. 본 연구에서 선정한 비등질성 난류유동장은 Chambers등이 연구 한 랜덤력을 갖는 Burgers 방정식을 수치적으로 풀어서 얻었다. 이와 같은 난류유동 장을 K-L전개와 푸리에 전개로 표현할 때에 수렴성은 레이놀즈 수가 서로 다르고 또한 전개항의 수가 다를 때에 RMS 오차를 가지고 비교하였다.여기서 푸리에 전개 계수 들은 Galerkin 방법으로 구하였다.

The shell structures with composite materials have the advantages in strength, corrosion resistance, and weight reduction. The objective of this study is to analyze anisotropic composite circular cylindrical shells with shear deformation theory. In applying numerical methods to solve differential equations of anisotropic shells, this paper use finite difference method. The accuracy of the numerical method can be improved by taking higher order of interval ${\Delta}$ to reduce error. This study compares the results of finite difference method with the results of ANSYS based on finite element method. Several numerical examples show the advantages of the stiffness increasement when the composite materials aroused. Therefore, it is expected that results of this study give various guides for change of the subtended angles, load cases, boundary conditions, and side-to-thickness ratio.

The main object of this study is to analyze mechanical behaviors as anisotropic three-dimensional body under various static loads. This paper presents the applicability of the finite difference method to three dimensional problem of anisotropic body. The finite difference method as applied here is generalized to anisotropic three-dimensional problem of elastic body where the governing differential equations of equilibrium of such bodies are expressed in terms of the displacement u, v, and w in the coordinates axes x, y and z, care being taken to modify the finite difference expressions to satisfy the appropriate boundary conditions. By adopting a new three dimensional finite difference modelling including elimination of pivotal difference points in the case of free boundary condition, the three dimensional problem of anisotropic body was successfully completed. Several numerical results show quick convergence and numerical validity of finite difference technique in three dimensional problem.

No matter how well the equally spaced grounding grid is designed, there we questions keep rising, such as leakage of current from comer conductor, high voltage of touch voltage in comers of grid than in center, and high material cost for grounding grid. The best-fitted design for unequally spaced grounding grid is a part that must be considered. Explain advantages of unequally spaced grounding grid and lead formula by dividing the number of grid division, j, into 20, instead of 7. Then, present Dij, which is optimum rate for unequally spaced grounding grid and verify safety and economy of the unequally spaced grounding grid by computer simulation with a poly-nominal function form.

불포화토에 있어서 함수상태는 지반이 건조할수록 수축하고 습윤상태로 진행할수록 파괴에 이르게 하는 추가적인 입자간 응력을 발생시키며, 이러한 간극수와 흙입자 사이에 발생하는 현상을 규명하기 위해서는 정확한 모형화가 필요하다. 흙입자와 간극수 사이의 상호작용에서 흡입유발 유효응력(suction-induced effective stress)을 규명하기 위해 정규모형(regular packing)과 임의모형(random packing)이 적용될 수 있다. 최근의 연구결과에 따르면 흙은 흡입유발 유효응력과 밀접한 관계가 있으며, 흙의 비등방텐서(anisotropic tensor)를 구하기 위해 적용된 ALTERNAT 모델을 이용하여 구조텐서(fabric tensor)를 개략적으로 정의할 수 있다. Thornton의 임의모형 시뮬레이션은 구조텐서에 상응하는 파괴응력 상태를 포함하고 있으며, 미소역학 시뮬레이션을 통하여 구조텐서를 구하였다. 본 연구에서는 상기에 언급된 구형의 흙입자 모형에 대한 이론적 고찰이 수행되었고, ALTERNAT 모델을 적용한 간단한 비등방텐서의 결과를 구조텐서와 비교하였다. 본 연구결과 비등방텐서는 미소역학 시뮬레이션에 의한 구조텐서에 비해 약 20~40%정도 큰 값을 나타내었다.

To model the anisotropic behavior of soils in the case of reverse loading, an anisotropic hardening description is proposed on the basis of generalized isotropic hardening(GIH) rule. There is a core of the GIH rule in the allowance of the concept that the center of homology of isotropic hardening can be any proper stress states inside a yield surface. The plastic deformations could be represented for the condition of reverse loading, and an explicit constitutive relationship was formulated by utilizing a simple hardening function. The proposed hardening description has been compared with other anisotropic hardening models. For verification three sets of triaxial test results have been predicted for the drained and undrained behavior of overconsolidated clays and Ko consolidated clays.

The appropriate description of the stress-anisotropy and time-dependent behavior of cohesive soils is very important in representing the real soil behavior. In this study, two constitutive relations have been incorporated based on the generalized viscous theory: one is the plastic constitutive relation adopted to capture the stress-anisotropy with a few model parameters; the other is the rate-dependent constitutive relation adopted to describe the strain rate-dependent behavior, an important time-dependent behavior in cohesive soils. The incorporated and proposed constitutive model has relatively a few model parameters and their values need not to be re-evaluated at different strain rates. The proposed model has been verified and investigated with the anisotropic triaxial test results obtained by using the artificial homogeneous specimens.
