As the number of pedestrian accident increases, the reconstruction of an accident becomes important to find the source of the fault. Generally, accidents are reconstructed by the intuition of experts or primitive physics. A reconstruction method is proposed using sophisticated optimization technology. At first, a dynamic simulation model is established for the accident environment. Occupant analysis for automobile crashworthiness is employed. The situation before an accident is identified by optimization. The impact velocity and the position of the pedestrian are utilized as design variables. The design variables are found by minimizing the difference between the simulation and the real accident. The optimization process is performed by linking an occupant analysis program MADYMO to an optimization program VisualDOC. Since the involved analysis is dynamics and highly nonlinear, response surface method is selected for the optimization process. Problems are solved for various situations.

Rollover is a major concern for vehicles with a higher center of gravity and for improving driving performance. This study investigates a tilting system to prevent rollover, which was successfully implemented for high-speed trains. It may be useful to apply the concept of the tilting system to a large truck such as a trailer. Even a small adjustment in the tilting angle can improve the driving stability during a steep turn. The equation of motion was derived from a dynamic model of the trailer with the tilting system. The balance of the centrifugal force and normal force determines the rollover critical speed for a given radius of the turn and load. To obtain a more conservative criterion, the rollover critical state was defined as the instant when any side wheel loses contact with the road. To actuate the tilting system, the optimal tilting angle must be calculated from the steering angle and the vehicle speed. Using a simplified model of a large truck, the effects of the tilting angle and load on the rollover critical speed were investigated.

본 연구는 하나의 장치 내에서 "싸이클론-관성충돌-여과포 집진"이라는 다단 제진 단계가 동시에 이루어져 입경 분포별로 순차적인 제진이 가능한 멀티 집진기의 처리가스 제어 효율을 극대화시킬 수 있는 기류 흐름을 얻기 위한 최적화 설계 조건을 검토하는 것이다. 우선 1단계 제진 과정인 원심력을 이용하여 조대입자의 유선 이탈을 촉진시킬 수 있는 사이클론 유동을 최적화시키기 위한 집진기 입구 형상 설계 검토를 위해 수치 해석적 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과, 멀티집진기 입구 형상을 일반적인 설계 방식인 접선 유입식으로만 설계한 것에 비해 선회류를 한번 더 가속화시킬 수 있는 가이드 베인을 추가로 설계한 경우 선회류의 pitch가 짧고 강하게 형성되어 사이클론부에서 조대입자의 유선 이탈을 촉진시키는데 매우 효과적인 것으로 예측되었다. 단, 사이클론부 하단 벤츄리 형상으로 인해 약 4~5 m/s의 강한 하향 흐름이 호퍼 하단까지 형성되고 있어 탈리 분진의 재비산 문제가 발생할 가능성이 크므로 벤츄리 형상 설치 유무에 대한 영향도 추가적으로 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Changes of turbidity and suspended solid concentration of inflow tend to be very similar in Andong and Imha dam, and show significant effect on the amount of rainfall. Concentrations of suspended solid and turbidity in Imha are higher than these of Andogn dam, and Banbyon have higher values than that of Yongjeon stream in Imha dam. There is no difference in size distribution and mineral composition of the suspended particles in Andong and Imha dam. The turbidity-causing materials are composed of vermiculite. illite, kaolinite, quartz and albite. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that turbidity-causing materials are have similar mineralogy between Andong and Imha Dam, but they have different abundance.

Talc ($Mg_3Si_4O_{10}(OH)_2$), one of sheet silicates, is soft and has been widely used in industry. Powdered talc specimen was synthesized at the pressure of 200 MPa and temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ using external heated hydrothermal high pressure apparatus. High pressure angular dispersive X-ray diffraction (ADXRD) mode experiments were performed at the Pohang Light Source (PLS) using the symmetrical diamond anvil cell (SDAC). Compression pressure was loaded up to 11.06 GPa at room temperature. This synthetic talc shows no phase transition(s) within the present pressure limit. Based on ADXRD data, bulk modulus of talc was calculated to be 72.4 GPa using Birch-Muranghan equation of state (EOS). This value is lower than that of natural talc determined previously.

The effect of vortex finder confiqurations on the PM-10 collection efficiencies has been investigated using 7 different types of cyclones. Cyclone inlet velocities were calculated by computational fluid dynamics analysis and PM-10 collection efficiencies were measured from experimental apparatus. The inlet velocities of normal, P and A type cyclones were calculated 15.48 m/sec, 16.03 m/sec and 15.9 m/sec, respectively while experimental results show that PM-10 collection efficiencies were increased 4% for P type and 7% for A type cyclones compared to normal cyclone. Also it was found that there exist optimum parallel head lengths for both P and A type cyclones to maximize the PM-10 collection efficiencies.

Three dimensional numerical calculations were carried out for two different combustion chambers with the offset valve in order to investigate the swirl and the squish effects on the flow fields. The modified K-.epsilon. turbulence model considering the change of the density under the condition of the rapid compression and expansion of the pistion was used. During the compression process, it was found that the squish flow which controls the subsequent combustion process was produced due to the piston bowl in the bowl piston type combustion chambers but not for the flat piston type. The swirl velocity close to the solid body rotation was maintained in the flat piston type combustion chambers, but for the bowl piston type a resulting from the change of the solid body rotation was generated in the radial-circumferential plane. For the swirl ratio effect, as the swirl ratio increases, it was found that a large and strong vortex was generated in the radial-circumferential plane of bowl piston type combustion chambers because of the strong inward flows from the combustion chamber wall. These computational results were compared with the results of LDA measurement.

Air drying equipment was built as a device for reduction of dewatered cake from wastewater and waterworks sludge and to reproduce it by reusable matter. Dewatered cake was supplied into the air drying equipment which operated by air velocity of 80 m/sec, air rate 30 $m^3/min$ and air temperature of $40^{\circ}C$, and dried to produce the dried powder. The air drying equipment was composed of the air ejector which made high-speed fluid field, and cyclone which made circling fluid field. Dewatered cake was crushed at the high-speed zone as first step, and formed into dried powder of sphere shape by the collision between particles at the circling fluid zone.. Wastewater sludge with water content of 82.5 wt% was supplied 1.0 kg/min into air drying equipment and produced the dried powder which had the water content of 62.3 wt% and mass median diameter of 2.4 mm after process. At that time, it was analyzed that water removal rate was 0.1 $H_2O{\Delta}kg/min{\cdot}DS$ kg and air consumption was 170 $m^3/DS$ kg. Under same experimental conditions, when waterworks sludge was dried, water content of dried powder decrease to 47.5 wt% and mass median diameter decrease 2.1 mm and water removal rate increase 0.13 $H_2O{\Delta}kg/min{\cdot}DS$ kg. Air consumption increase 180 $m^3/DS$ kg with comparison to the results of wastewater sludge. Therefore, this technology was evaluated that drying the dewatered cake of waterworks sludge was more efficient than wastewater sludge, and also economical sludge handling technology due to drying the cake by only air.

A numerical technique is developed for the solution of fully developed turbulent recirculating flow in the passage of variable area using the non-orthogonal coordinate transformation. In the numerical analysis, primitive pressure-velocity finite difference equations were solved by SIMPLER algorithm with 2-equation turbulence model and algebraic stress model (ASM). QUICK scheme on the differencing of convective terms which is free from the inaccuracies of numerical diffusion has been applied to the variable grids and the results compared with those from HYBRID scheme. In order to test the effect of streamline curvatures on turbulent diffusion Lee and Choi streamline curvature correction model which has been obtained by modifying the Leschziner and Rodi's model is testes. The ASM was also employed and the results are compared to those from another turbulence model. The results show that difference of convective differencing schemes and turbulence models give significant differences in the prediction of velocity fields in the expansion region and outlet region of the combustor, however show little differences in the parallel flow region.
