In order to investigate the vibration characteristics of fluid-structure interaction problem, we modeled two identical rectangular plates coupled with bounded fluid. The fixed boundary condition along the plate edges and an ideal fluid were assumed. A commercial computer code, ANSYS was used to perform finite element analysis and FEM solutions were compared with the experimental results to modify the finite element model. As a result, comparison of FEM and experiment showed good agreement, and the transverse vibration modes, in-phase and out of-phase. were observed alternately in the tluid-coupled system. The effects of distance between two rectangular plates and width to length ratio on the fluid-coupled natural frequency were investigated. And it was found that the ormalized natural frequency of the fluid-coupled system monotonically increased with an increase in the number of modes.

The effects of the base-isolation system and elastic soil foundation on the behavior of a liquid storage tank are studied. To evaluate the seismic response of liquid storage tank accurately, the coupled dynamic system considering base isolation and soil interaction problem is formulated in time domain. Results show that the base isolation system reduces effectively the radial displacements, base shears, overturning moments, axial resultant stresses and the hydrodynamic pressure by providing flexibility and energy dissipation capability. Base Isolation may, however, increase the relative liquid sloshing amplitude due to the effect of liquid-structure interaction and cause excessive large relative displacements between structure and foundation. In addition to base-isolator, the dynamic behavior of liquid storage tank is related to the flexibility of base foundation, so the analysis of soil-structure interaction s achieved.

In this study a base-isolated liquid storage tank subjected to seismic ground motion is numerically simulated on frequency , domain considering three-dimensional liquid-structure-soil interaction. A hybrid formulation which combines the versatility of finite elements for tank structure and the efficiency of boundary elements for liquid and soil region is adopted for efficient modeling. The base-isolation system using the effective stiffness and damping ratio is also included in this formulation. in order to demonstrate the accuracy and validity of the developed solution the numerical results were compared with the reference solutions in each interaction problem. The effects of the liquid filling ratio and the stiffness of base-isolation system on the behavior of the liquid storage tanks are analyzed.

최근 이상기후로 인하여 우리나라 산림에 태풍 및 국지성 호우가 빈번히 발생하고 있다. 이로 인해 사면재해가 많이 발생하고 있으며 그 중 호우로 인한 많은 양의 물과 함께 토석 및 부유물이 중력에 의해 경사면을 따라 흐름 형태를 보이는 토석류 재해는 속도가 매우 빠르고 파괴적이며 그 결과는 비참하기까지 하다. 더구나 인구밀도가 낮은 산지 계곡부 뿐만 아니라 도시지역에서도 토석류 재해가 빈번히 발생하며 국내 및 해외에서도 토석류에 의한 피해사례는 자주 볼 수 있다. 이러한 토석류 재해의 피해를 줄이고자 토석류의 유동성을 저감시키기 위한 대책구조물의 시공이 많이 이루어지고 있으며 최근에는 투과형 구조물 중 하나인 원통형 기둥구조물을 그룹 형태로의 시공하는 경우가 늘어나고 있다. 토석류와 대책구조물 간의 상호작용은 월류(overflow), 쳐오름(run-up), 역류(backwater) 등의 복잡한 흐름 거동을 보인다. 하지만 원통형 대책구조물에 대한연구가 많이 이루어져 있지 않고 대규모 실험 또한 비용이 많이 소요되고 실행하기도 어렵다. 이 연구는 오픈소스 소프트웨어인 OpenFOAM을 사용하여 원통형 대책구조물의 설치 조건에 따라 토석류 흐름에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 짧은 시간 내에 흐름이 발생하고 비뉴튼 유체 특성을 갖는 토석류의 유효전단응력이 난류전단응력에 비해 상당히 크므로 난류의 영향은 무시하였다. 계산된 수치모의의 결과를 같은 규모로 시행한 실험결과와 비교분석 및 검증하였다. 공학학적 문제에 적용 가능하도록 비교적 낮은 해상도의 계산 격자를 사용했지만 실험에서 보여지는 토석류의 흐름거동을 양호하게 재현했으며 원통형 대책구조물의 배치조건에 따라 토석류 선단부 유속의 감소 정도 및 시간에 따른 흐름깊이 변화를 분석할 수 있었다. 이 연구는 다양한 조건을 가지는 토석류 흐름을 해석하는데 유용하게 활용할 수 있으며, 추후 복잡한 실제지형 조건을 고려하는 연구를 통하여 적용성을 확보하고자 한다.

In this paper, the interaction of oblique incident waves with a bottom-mounted and fluid-filled flexible membrane structure is investigated in the frame of linear hydro-elastic theory. The static shape of a membrane structure containing the fluid of a specific density is initially unknown and must be calculated before the hydrodynamic analysis. To solve hydrodynamic problem, the fluid domain is divided into the inner and outer region. The inner solution based on discrete membrane dynamic model and simple-source distribution over the entire fluid boundaries is matched to the outer solution ba~ed on an eigenfunction expansion method. The numerical results were compared to a series of Ohyama's experimental results. The measured reflection and tran¬smission coefficients reasonably follow the trend of predicted values. Using the computer program developed, the performance of a bottom-mounted and fluid-filled flexible membrane strocture is tested with various system parameters (membrane shape, internal pressure, density ratio) and wave characteristics (wave frequencies, incident wave angle). It is found that a bottom-mounted and fluid-filled flexible membrane structure can be an effel;tive wave barrier if properly designed.

We study the characteristics of airflow and sound noise induced by disk rotation in optical disk drives. The characteristics of airflow around a rotating disk surrounded by various tray structures are numerically investigated using a commercial CFD program and then compared with experimental results. Sound pressure and intensity caused by the fluid-structure interactions in the CD/DVD-ROM drive are measured, and the effect of the ariflow on the sound noise and disk vibration is discussed. In order to reduce airflow-induced noise and vibration around the rotating disk, tray geometry is modified. Both numerical and experimental studies implemented with different tray models show that the improved tray model alters the characteristics of the disk-induced airflow, causing the reduction of the airflow-induced sound level.

In order to dispose radioactive wastes safely, it is needed to understand the mechanical, thermal, fluid behavior of rockmass and physico-chemical interactions between rockmass and water. Also, the knowledge about mechanical and hydraulic properties of rocks is required to predict and to model many conditions of geological structure, underground in-situ stress, folding, hot water interaction, intrusion of magma, plate tectonics etc. This study is based on researches about rock mechanics issues associated with a waste disposal in deep rockmass. This paper includes the mechanical and hydraulic behavior of rocks in varying temperature conditions, thermo-hydro-mechanical coupling analysis in rock mass and deformation behavior of discontinuous rocks. The mechanical properties were measured with Interaken rock mechanics testing systems and hydraulic properties were measured with transient pulse permeability measuring systems. In all results, rock properties were sensitive to temperature variation.

일반적으로 유체와 구조물간 상호작용의 수리동역학적 모의에서는 벽경계조건을 통하여 유동에 대한 구조물의 영향이 반영된다. 하지만 도심지에서 발생한 홍수를 예측하려는 경우 이러한 방법으로는 밀집한 구조물들 사이에 형성된 좁은 길들로 인하여 세밀한 격자망을 요하여 큰 계산량을 유발하고 빠른 예측 속도를 기대할 수 없게 한다. 최근 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 성긴 격자망에서도 구조물의 유체에 대한 영향을 반영할 수 있도록 하는 방법들이 큰 관심을 받고 있다. 그 중에서도 다공성 천수방정식은 벽경계조건 대신 다공도(posority)의 개념을 이용한 모형으로 도시범람모의에 있어 계산량과 정확도를 가장 적절하게 타협한 모형으로 보고되고 있다. 이러한 흐름에 맞추어 본 연구는 다공도 천수방정식을 해석하는 수치 기법을 개발하였고, 여기에 최근 쌍곡선계 방정식의 수치적 연구들에서 소개된 주요 특징들이 반영되도록 설계하였다. 우선, WENO 기법과 Runge-Kutaa 기법을 통하여 공간과 시간에 대한 고차 정확도를 만족시켰다. 이 때, 재구성 변수와 알고리즘를 새롭게 제시하여 정상흐름조건에 대한 플럭스항과 생성·소멸항간 절단오차에 의한 비물리적인 흐름생성을 억제하였다. 또한, 수치모의 중 음수심의 발생으로 인하여 수치모형이 불안정해지는 현상을 막기 위해, 양-보존성 제한자를 구축하였다. 마지막으로 도심지에서 즐비한 인위적인 구조물에 의해 나타나는 지형적인 불연속의 효과를 적절하게 반영할수 있도록 정상파 재구축의 단계를 구축하여 수치 기법에 반영하였다. 이렇게 구성된 수치기법은 리만문제의 해석해에 기반하여 기존의 주요 연구들의 결과와 비교되었고, 그 결과 본 연구의 방법이 정확성, 수렴성, 안전성의 측면에서 가장 우수함을 수치적으로 증명하였다.

The finite element technique incorporatating infinite elements is applied to analyzing the general three dimensional wave-structure interaction problems within the limits of linear wave theory. The hydrodynamic forces are assumed to be inertially dominated, and viscous effects are neglected. In order to analyze the corresponding boundary value problems efficiently, two types of elements are developed. One is the infinite element for modeling the radiation condition at infinity, and the other is the fictitious bottom boundary element for the case of deep water. To validate those elements, numerical analyses are performed for several floating structures. Comparisons with the results by using other available solution methods show that the present method incorporating the infinite and the fictitious bottom boundary elements gives good results.

Analyzing various wave interactions with oscillating wave surge converters (OWSC) is essential because they must be operated efficiently under a wide range of wave conditions and designed to extract optimal wave energy. In the conceptual design and development stage of OWSC, numerical analysis can be a good alternative as a design tool. This study performed a numerical analysis on the behavioral characteristics of the inverted triangle flap against the incident waves using open source CFD to examine the essential behavioral attributes of OWSC. Specifically, the behavioral characteristics of the structure were studied by calculating the free water surface displacement and the flap rotation angle near the inverted triangular flap according to the change of the period under the regular wave conditions. By comparing and examining the numerical analysis results with the hydraulic model experiments, the validity of the analysis performed and the applicability in analyzing the wave-structure interactions related to OWSC was verified. The numerical analysis result confirmed that the hydrodynamic behavior characteristic due to the interactions of the wave and the inverted triangle flap was well reproduced.
