For the simulation of one-dimensional unsteady flow, the Taylor-Galerkin finite element method was adopted to the discretization of the Saint Venant equation. The model was applied to the backwater problem in a single channel and the flood routing in dendritic channel networks. The numerical solutions were compared with previously published results of finite difference and finite element methods and good agreement was observed. The model solves the continuity and the momentum equations in a sequential manner and this leads to easy implementation. Since the final system of matrix is tri-diagonal with a few additional entry due to channel junctions, the tri-diagonal matrix solution algorithm can be used with minor modification. So it is fast and economical in terms of memory for storing matrices.

Accurate load-carrying capacities and moment distributions of thin circular plates are obtained for clamped or simply-supported boundary condition under various concentrated circular loadings. The material is regarded as perfectly-plastic based on an arbitrary yield function such as the Tresca yield function, the Johansen yield function, and the farmily of .betha.-norms which possesses the von Mises yield function and the Frobenius norm. To obtain the lower bound solutions, a maximization formulation is derived and implemented for efficient numerical calculation with a finite difference method and the modified Newton's method. The numerical results demonstrate plastic collapse behavior of circular plates and provide their design criteria.

Recently, there have been many researches and developments in optical disc drive by high density of track and high access speed. Therefore, the optical pick-up should guarantee highly accurate dynamic characteristics for the wide bandwidth in order to cope with this trend. These demands for optical pick-up actuator can be solved by improvements of lens-holder through the following methods. The first way is the analysis of the sensitivity matrix of design variables for vibration modes after appropriate design parameters are selected like shapes and local dimensions of a lens-holder. The second way is the optimization of design variables by calculating sequential linear programming after the problem of extending bandwidth are converted to problem of minimizing adequate objective function. In the result, modified FE model is obtained through several iterations by finite difference scheme(FDS). While results of the first way show better convergence of the target frequency, the second result shows better reduction of mass increase.

High-frequency electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation phenomena associated with borehole ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys are complex. To improve the understanding of governing physical processes, we present a finite-difference time-domain solution of Maxwell's equations in cylindrical coordinates. This approach allows us to model the full EM wavefield associated with borehole GPR surveys. The algorithm can be easily implemented perfectly matched layers for absorbing boundaries, frequency-dependent media, and finite-length transmitter antenna.

We propose a hybrid method combining the implicit with the explicit methods in order to reduce the calculation time and improve the convergence problem of the 3-dimensional finite-difference beam propagation method. The numerical simulation of a directional coupler is carried out by the proposed method. It is found from the simulation results that the calculation speed of our method is 10 times faster than that of direct solving techniques.

The Perfectly Matched Layer(PML) provide good performance in absorption over a wide frequency range and is an appropriate ABC for waveguides with high dispersion. In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed to improve the computational efficiency of the PML. In the input and output ports, the fields are decomposed into a series of modes, and then an appropriate ABC is applied to each mode. CPU time and memory storage requirements are greatly reduced, since the computational region is analyzed in one dimension. A WG-90 rectangular waveguide with a thick asymmetric iris is analyzed by Finite-Difference Time-Domain(FDTD) simulations with the conventional PML and the proposed one-dimensional (1-D) PML. Numerical results show that the computational efficiency is significantly improved by the proposed method.

The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the equations of the k-.epsilon. turbulence model are solved numerically in a general curvilinear system for a three-dimensional turbulent flow around an Ahmed body. The simulation is especially aimed at the evaluation of three finite differencing schemes for the convection term, which include the upwind differencing scheme(UDS), the second order upwind differencing scheme(SOU scheme) and the QUICK scheme. The drag coefficient, the velocity and pressure fields are found to be changed considerably with the adopted finite differencing schemes. It is clearly demonstrated that the large difference between computation and experiment in the drag coefficient is due to relatively high predicted values of pressure drag from both front part and vertical rear end base. The results also show that the simulation with the QUICK or SOU scheme predicts fairly well the flow field and gives more accurate drag coefficient than other finite differencing scheme.

In this paper, an analytical method and a difference approximation method to calculate the gradient of an objective function have been applied to the directivity optimization in an adaptive ultrasonic transducer which is combined with a point source array and an optimization algorithm (DFP method). To compare these two methods, quasi-ideal .beam with a beam width and direction specified are chosen as the desired directivity. As the numerical results, the difference approximation method shows better suppressive capacity of side lobe level, good stability in the convergence processing, faster convergence speed and excellent adaptability compared with the analytical method.

Recently, several DDP, DDO and COS-based block ciphers have been proposed for hardware implementations with low cost. However, most of them are vulnerable to related-keyt attacks. A 12-round block cipher SCOS-3 is desinged to eliminate the weakness of DDP, DDO and COS-based block ciphers. In this paper, we propose a related-key differential attack on an 11-round reduced SCOS-3. The attack on an 11-round reduced SCOS-3 requires $2^{58}$ related-key chosen plaintexts and $2^{117.54}$ 11-round reduced SCOS-3 encryptions. This work is the first known attack on SCOS-3. Therefore, SCOS-3 is still vulnerable to related-key attacks.

A micro flow sensor on silicon substrate allows the fabrication of small components where many different functions can be integrated so that the functionality of the sensors can be increased. Further more, the small size of the elements these sensors can be quite fast. A thermal mass flow sensor measures the asymmetry of temperature profile around the heater which is modulated by the fluid flow. In normal, a mass flow sensor is composed of a central heater and a pair of temperature sensing elements around the heater A new 2-D wide range micro flow sensor structure with three pairs of temperature sensors and a central heater was proposed and numerically simulated by Finite Difference formulation to confirm the feasibility of the flow sensor structure in time domain.
