A component-scale two-phase analysis code has been developed for a realistic simulation of two-phase flow transients in a light water nuclear reactor component. In the code, a two-fluid three-field model is adopted and the governing equations are solved on an unstructured mesh. For the numerical solution scheme, the semi-implicit method used in the RELAP5 code was selected, which has been proved to be very stable and accurate for most of practical applications. However, some modifications were needed for its application to an unstructured non-staggered grid. This paper presents the modified semi-implicit numerical method for unstructured grid and the preliminary results of the calculations.

This paper presents a preliminary study of a convergent divergent nozzle in an afterburning turbofan engine of a supersonic aircraft engine. In order to design a convergent divergent nozzle, cycle model of a low bypass afterburning turbofan engine of which thrust class is 29,000 lbf at a sea level static condition is established. The cycle analysis at the design point is conducted by Gasturb 12 software and one dimensional gas properties at a downstream direction of the turbine are obtained. The dimension and configuration of an model turbofan engine are derived from take-off operation with wet reheat condition. The off-design cycle calculation is conducted at the all flight envelope on the maximum flight Mach number of 2.0 and maximum flight altitude of 15,000 m.

최근 진행되고 있는 자연형 하천 조성사업과 관련하여 하천 복원 계획 및 실무에 있어 우선적으로 고려되어야 할 사항은 여러 가지가 있지만, 그 중에서 유역의 복합적인 요인(기후, 지형특성, 수리 수문특성, 식생특성, 유사 특성 등)들에 의하여 영향을 받게 되는 하천의 지형형태학적 측면의 경우에는, 안정 하도 형성에 직접적인 영향을 미치게 되므로 계획의 예비조사 단계서부터 충분한 검토가 이루어져야 함에도 불구하고, 국내에서는 하천 지형형태학적인 측면을 고려한 하천 복원의 연구는 아주 미미한 것이 사실이다. 자연하천 조성에 있어서 획일적으로 직선화된 하천보다 사행화를 유도함으로써 얻어지는 장점들이 더 많지만, 하천설계기준 등에서 제시하고 있는 사행화에 대한 정확한 지침이 부재하여 설계자의 판단에 의하여 사행화를 유도하는 경우가 대부분이다. 사행현상은 유심의 변화가 이루어지기 때문에 전단면에 걸친 수심의 유지가 어렵고, 취수구의 기능저하, 제방의 파괴, 국소세굴에 따른 하천재해 등의 문제가 발생하기도 한다. 자연 상태의 하천형상은 대부분 호우로 인한 홍수로 인하여 자연스럽게 만들어지게 되며, 대부분 사행하천의 형태를 띠게 된다. 자연적으로 형성된 사행하천은 하천 정비시 경제적인 측면을 고려하여 직선화로 계획하는 경우가 많으며, 하천 주변 지형과 토지이용 등의 제약 조건 등으로 인하여 만곡구간을 그대로 두고 하천설계를 계획하는 경우도 있다. 그러나 경제적인 측면만을 고려하여 하천을 직선화하는 것은 상류부 홍수를 하류부로 전가시켜 하류 홍수피해를 가중시키는 결과를 초래하므로 바람직하지 않을 뿐만 아니라 직선화된 수로에서는 하천의 생태계가 제대로 이루어지지 않으므로 하천은 만곡구간을 갖는 것이 바람직하다. 본 연구에서는 자연하천 조성시 하천의 사행화를 유도할 수 있는 방안으로 호안 공법의 적용을 통한 사행화 유도 방법을 제안하였으며, 길이 20m, 폭 2m, 높이 1m의 크기를 갖는 개수로 장치를 이용하여 수리모형실험을 실시하였고, 이동상 실험을 통하여 호안 공법의 배열에 따른 사행화 영향 정도를 분석하였다. 또한, 소프트 백과 같은 유연한 소재뿐만 아니라 돌이나 돌망태와 같은 강성 소재에 대한 사행화 영향을 검토함으로써 다양한 호안기법을 통한 영향범위를 제시하였다.

With the development of layered manufacturing, thermally conductive molds or molds embedding conformal cooling channels can be directly fabricated. Although P21 tool steel is widely used as a mold material because of its dimensional stability, it is not efficient for cooling molds owing to its low thermal conductivity. Hence, the use of functionally graded materials (FGMs) between P21 and Cu may circumvent a tradeoff between the strength and the heat transfer rate. As a preliminary study for the layered manufacturing of thermally conductive molds having FGM structures, one-dimensional P21-Cu FGMs were fabricated by using laser-aided direct metal tooling (DMT), and then, material properties such as the thermal conductivity and specific heat that are related to the heat transfer were measured and analyzed.

The Geo-Reservoir Experimental Analogue Technology (GREAT) cell was designed to recreate the thermal-hydro-mechanical conditions of deep subsurface in the laboratory. This apparatus can generate a polyaxial stress field using lateral loading elements, which rotate around the longitudinal axis of a sample and is capable of performing a fluid flow test for samples containing fractures. In the present study, numerical simulations were carried out for triaxial compression tests using the GREAT cell and the mechanical behavior of samples under different conditions of lateral loading was investigated. We simulated an actual case, in which triaxial compression tests were conducted for a polymer sample without fractures, and compared the results between the numerical analysis and experiment. The surface strain (circumferential strain) of the sample was analyzed for equal and non-equal horizontal confining pressures. The results of the comparison showed a good consistency. Additionally, for synthetic cases with a fracture, we investigated the effect of the friction and type of fracture surface on the deformation behavior.

As a special infrastructure, it is important that the suspension bridges which were designed by using the cable are carefully maintained and safely inspected after their construction, more than what is done in other cases of bridge structures. However, the structural analysis for their design and maintenance has considered only the simplified geometric shape of the structure. Particularly, it is not easy to make the modeling analyze the bridge structure including detailed steel deck plates. In this paper, we evaluated the structural behaviors and performances of the completed earth-anchored suspension bridge that was in a completed state through both the tension of hanger member and their computational analysis. We considered the frame system and the detailed steel deck plates that were especially added into the modeling to take more precision analysis about it. We also applied hanger tensions converted by the natural frequency and the natural frequency of the bridge when in normal vibration. Results of the vehicle loading test were used in the analysis. We compared the results by using our modeling with the result of the loading test and the hanger tension. Our prediction on the behavior of the structure emulates the behavior of the real structure. In applying the data measured by the typhoon "Maemi" which arrived in-land last year, we confirmed our analysis model for the possibility of applying effectively into the preliminary design and maintenance plan.

In this study, a loosely coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis was conducted for a low-pressure (LP) final-stage rotor blade. Preliminary FSI analyses of a $15^{\circ}$ sweptback wing and a NASA Rotor 37 compressor blade were performed for verifying the boundary conditions. The results were compared with the established literatures for each model. The FSI analysis of the $15^{\circ}$ sweptback wing was carried out under both stable and unstable conditions. The excessive deformation of the wing was observed within 0.05 s under the unstable condition which is higher than the divergence speed of a wing compared with the stable condition. On the basis of the results of a steady-state study, an unsteady state FSI analysis was conducted for a NASA Rotor 37. Different deformations were observed at trailing edge of the blade in the static FSI and dynamic FSI analysis. A 3D FE model of a LP rotor was generated from the span-wise section data. In order to develop a reasonable model, an impact test was performed and compared to the FE model. Using this FE model, the steady-state FSI analysis was performed successfully.

The integrity assessment of the bridge behavior is generalized by field data of a static load-deformation curve and dynamic properties such as impact factors and natural frequencies. Evaluating it with numerical analysis is a reasonable method. The results of the mockup test and the numerical analysis are corresponded with each other since the behavior of service load proceeds in elastic region. In case of the dynamic behavior of structure, especially for the analysis of vibration, the result of the mockup test differs from the result of numerical analysis a little due to the geometric shape and non-homogeneous materials. In order to converge on these tolerances, this study suggested several numerical models, analyzed the sensitivity and finally offered a practical modeling method for the estimation of bridge on the basis of the result of mockup test. Based on the model substituted concrete section for strands section, the natural frequency of the model composed with axial stiffness of strands or the model applied the modified modulus of elasticity was closest with the result of the mockup test.

Slewing bearing is applied to the transmission of rotational power of the body and turret in a special vehicle for anti-aircraft weapons that overcomes the enemy flight system approaching at low altitudes with rapid response fire. When the turret load and impact load generated when shooting are combined in performing the combat mission of a special vehicle, structural stability must be secured to achieve a successful function. Among the components of the slewing bearing, the stability of the components against the complex loads acting by the turret drive and shooting was evaluated by considering the shape and material characteristics of the ring-gear, roller, and wire-race. As a research method for stability evaluation, based on engineering theory, the strength characteristics of the components were examined by numerical calculations. Finite element analysis was performed on components using the ANSYS analysis program. The results of theoretical analysis and the results of finite element analysis were very similar. A structural stability evaluation for the slewing bearing, which was performed mainly on the analysis, confirmed that the design strength of the slewing bearing determined in the preliminary design in the early stage of localization development was sufficient.
