Super-orthogonal space-time trellis code (SOTTC) uses the expanded set of the orthogonal space-time block code to obtain coding gain and diversity gain without loss of transmit rate. In SOSTTCs, signal set expansions are performed by rotating the first column of the code matrix. The rotating phases used previously were selected to avoid the signal constellation expansion rather than the performance improvement. In this paper, we make a design criterion to select the proper rotating phase to improve the performance of SOSTTCs for fast Rayleigh fading channels. In addition, we design improved SOSTTCs by using the proper rotating phase. Simulation results are also provided to confirm our SOSTTCs are superior to the previous SOSTTCs in the view of BER performance.

In this paper, the vortex-induced vibration of circular cylinders is studied using the immersed boundary method on the Cartesian mesh. The Reynolds numbers considered is from 100 to 200. Using the configuration of tendemly arranged multiple circular cylinders, the vortex shedding behind of the cylinders and their flow-induced motion are investigated. The staggered MAC grid arrangement, which is the typical grid system for the incompressible flow on the Cartesian meshes, is utilized. Pressure correction method is applied for solving the divergence-free incompressible velocity field. The body motion is described by immersed boundary technique that has advantages for moving object on the fixed computational domain. It is also discussed for the computational noise in hydrodynamic forces when body motion is represented by the immersed boundary method. The Predictor/Corrector method is used for simulating the nonlinear response of the elastically mounted cylinder excited by vortex-shedding.

In the present study, a new method of generating a nearly orthogonal boundary-fitted coordinate systems with automatic grid spacing control is introduced. Applications of the method to a two dimensional simply-connected region is then demonstrated. The nearly orthogonal boundary-fitted method has the following features, (a) Strong grid control in the .eta.-direction can be made, (b) The generated boundary-fitted coordinates are nearly orthoronal, (c) Both the .xi.-and .eta.-direction control function are mathematically derived. Especially the .eta.-direction control function is derived under the assumption that the .eta.-direction grid spacing is by far smaller than the .xi.-direction grid spacing when the .eta.-direction grid line is strongly clustered. (d) The grid control functions are dynamically adjusted by the metric scale factors imposed on the boundary. The control function is fully automatic and eliminates the need of user manipulation of the control function.

바닥이 언덕과 저면으로 이루어진 연속적인 횡방향 바닥형상을 갖는 개수로 흐름의 부유사 농도분포를 수치모의 하였다. 비선형 ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ 모형을 이용하여 흐름의 지배방정식인 곡선 직교좌표계에 대한 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 해석하였으며, 와점성계수 개념을 이용하여 부유사 수송 방정식을 해석하였다. 기존의 실험결과와 비교하여 모형이 격자형 이차흐름을 비교적 잘 예측하는 것을 확인하였으며, 동일한 흐름에 대하여 부유사 농도 분포를 계산하였다. 부유사량의 계산 결과 언덕 위의 부유사 농도분포가 저면 위의 농도분포보다 크게 나타났다.

The inverse radiation analysis of a two-dimensional irregular configuration using unstructured triangular meshes is presented. In this study, an enclosure filled with an absorbing, emitting and scattering medium with diffusely emitting and reflecting opaque boundaries is considered. The finite volume method is applied to solve the radiative transfer equation in order to simulate the measured incident radiation values which are used as input data for the inverse analysis. The conjugate gradient method is adopted for the estimation of wall emissivities by minimizing the objective function at each iteration step. To verify the performance of the unstructured grid system, we compare the results with those using a structured grid system for the two-dimensional lopsided shape. The effect of measurement errors on the estimation accuracy is also investigated.

This study applied the previous results of the NAO model, a tidal correction model, to the open boundary condition for the behavior of tidal elevation and tidal currents in the South Sea. This study used the EFDC model considering the wetting and drying problem and using the $\sigma-coordinate$ as a vertical coordinate and generated two mesh cases of the constant grid size of 2.0 km and the variable grid size of $0.5\sim2.0km$. The numerical results for the tides showed that the predicted results were in quite good agreements with the observational data acquired from the tidal stations of the NORI. The predicted tides were observed to propagate from the east area to the west area in the South Sea. The verification results reveal that the numerical results are more correlated with the measured tidal data as the grid size decreases. The grid size of 2 km results in proper simulation of tidal currents in wide waterway and offshore area whereas the numerical results from the grid size of 0.5 km tend to somewhat underestimate the tidal currents affected by narrow waterway and topography in inner-bay.

Typical materials including concrete behaves with positive poisson's ratio when external force is applied. However, it is also available to manufacture a grating system which has negative poisson's ratio(Auxetic). In this study, double arrow type 2-D auxetic mesh was manufactured and mechanical behaviors were observed. Also, direct tensile tests of cementitious composites reinforced by auxetic mesh were performed and the results were compared with composites reinforced by typical mesh. The results showed that auxetic mesh more effectively restrained the deformation(shortening) of cementitious composites perpendicular to the load direction comparing with typical mesh.

배수갑문 외측에 발생하는 유사 퇴적 현상으로 인하여 배수갑문의 통수능이 감소하게 되는데, 이로 인하여 홍수 배제 능력과 조수 차단 능력이 감소하여 간척지의 홍수 피해와 침수 피해 등이 발생할 위험성이 증가한다. 본 연구에서는 대천 방조제 배수갑문 외측에 발생하는 유사 퇴적현상을 규명하기 위해, 3차원 수치 모형인 EFDC(Environmental Fluid Dynamics Code) 모형을 이용하여 모의하였다. 격자망을 구성하기 위해서 SMS(Surface Water Modeling System) 모형을 이용하여 배수갑문이 위치하고 있는 방조제에 대한 격자체계를 구성하였다. 격자체계는 직교좌표계를 사용하여 4269개의 격자를 만들어 모형에 적용하였다. 수위 및 유량에 대한 경계조건은 기상자료, 조위관측소 자료, 배수갑문 운용자료를 통해 구축하였으며, 초기조건은 보령 조위자료를 이용하였다.

For long slender offshore structures, such as cables and pipe lines, their interaction with surrounding fluid flow becomes an important issue for global design of ocean systems. We employ a long circular cylinder as a representative case of slender offshore structure. A flexibly mounted cylinder in cross-flow generates complex vortex shedding and results in oscillation of the structure. In this paper, flow behind a circular cylinder at Re=100 is simulated. The vortex shedding pattern and flow induced motion are examined in the cross flow configuration as well as with various yaw-angled configurations. The "Lock-in" phenomenon is also observed when reduced velocity is approximately 4.0. The MAC Grid system, which is the typical grid system for Cartesian mesh and pressure correction methods, are used for solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Predictor/Corrector method is applied for obtaining a non-linear response of structure at the flexibly mounted. The existance and motion of the body is represented by the immersed boundary technique.
