In this Paper, a so-called volume-control method for nonlinear failure analysis of reinforced concrete cylindrical structures is proposed. The pressure node which defines uniform change of pressure on finite element is added into layered shell element utilizing in-plane constitutive models of reinforced concrete and layered formulation. With the pressure node formulation, one can control the change in volume enclosed by the cylindrical structures and determine the required change in pressure. An algorith of volume-control method is employed and failure analyses for RC cylindrical structures are carried out using proposed method.

4D-Radiation Therapy is the optimal treatment to track moving organs(tumor) and give the appropriate prescription dose to tumor and low radiation dose to normal tissue surrounding tumor volume. The ABCHES is a 4DRT devices maintaining shallow breathing to patients. It allows the tumor's movement was minimize. Meanwhile, Abdominal compression device is limited the breath compressing abdomen on patients. In this paper we will quantitative analysis the movement of tumor on only ABCHES versus ABCHES with Abdomal compression device and Analysis tumor dose and normal tissue's dose by Dose Volume Histogram on two parts. The result of Comparision ABCHES and ABCHES with Abdominal compression device, SI(Superior-Inferior) direction, AP(Anterior-Posterior) direction and LR(Left-Right) direction was limited 1.0 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.2 mm(average). and also reduction rate of voluume in HPTV was $16{\pm}2%$, and LPTV was $15.8{\pm}0.8%$ under only using ABCHES and ABCHES with compression. The analysis dose volume histogram was more radiation dose in ABCHES and abdominal compression device than only using ABCHES, and less normal tissue-ipsilateral lung, whole lung, kidney-dose in ABCHES and abdominal compression device than only using ABCHES. The overall analysis was ABCHES with abdominal compression better than only using ABCHES method. In hereafter it will be studies that limitation of ABCHES and abdomonal compression device. In other words, patient's discomfort on compression intensity, method of application on patient with inaccurate respiration cycle.

This study was performed to provide the information of the soot formation behavior of octane single fuel droplet under the identical combustion conditions. To achieve this, this experimental study provide the results of the soot formation characteristics of octane droplet in accordance with different initial droplet diameter($d_0$), at the same time, experiment was conducted under the same combustion conditions which are 1.0atm of ambient pressure($P_{amb}$), 21% of oxygen concentration($O_2$) and 79% of nitrogen concentration($N_2$). Visualization of octane droplet combustion was performed by visualization system with high speed camera. The results of maximum soot volume fraction($f_{vmax}$) was almost the same under the equivalent ambient conditions regardless of initial droplet diameter. Furthermore, maximum soot volume fraction was showed the higher value in the measuring direction between $135^{\circ}$ and $315^{\circ}$ since the soot-tail is generated during two opposing igniters movement process.

The present study describes unsteady flow phenomena generated in a supersonic flow passing over a rectangular cavity and suggests a way of control of pressure oscillation, doing harm to overall performance and stable operation of aerodynamic and industrial applications. The three-dimensional, unsteady, compressible Navier-stokes equations are numerically solved based on a fully implicit finite volume scheme and large eddy simulation. The cavity flow are simulated with and without control methods, including a triangular bump and blowing jet installed near the leading edge of the cavity. The results show that the pressure oscillation is attenuated by both control techniques, especially near the trailing edge of cavity.

Dual throat nozzle(DTN) is recently attracting much attention as a new concept of the thrust vectoring technique. This DTN is designed with two throats, an upstream minimum and a downstream minimum at the nozzle exit, with a cavity in between the upstream throat and exit. In the present study, a computational work has been carried out to analyze the performance of a dual throat nozzle(DTN) at various mass flow rate of secondary flow and nozzle pressure ratios(NPR). Two-dimensional, steady, compressible Navier-Stokes equations were solved using a fully implicit finite volume scheme. The present computational results were validated with some experimental data available. Based upon the present results, The control effectiveness of thrust-vector is discussed in terms of the thrust coefficient and the discharge coefficient.

In the Present Study, a 3-D viscous flow solver, based on unstructured hybrid meshses containing tetrahedra, prisms and pyramids, has been developed. A finite-volume discretization scheme is used for solving the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. A cell-vertex median dual volume is used for spatial discretization. The one-equation Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model has been adopted to evaluate the eddy viscosity. Validation were made by computing laminar and turbulent flows around a 3-D wing for steady flows and turbulent flows around an oscillating 3-D wing in harmonic motion for unsteady flows.

PWR 원전의 냉각재 화학 및 체적제어 계통(CVCS) 정화 탈염기는 핵연료에서 방출된 핵분열 생성물질과 방사성 부식생성물을 제거하여 계통 내 방사능 준위를 낮추고, 부식을 유발하는 불순물을 제거하여 계통의 건전성을 유지하며, pH 조절제인 리튬($^{7}$ Li$_3$)의 농도조절을 통해 냉각계 수화학 환경을 최적으로 유지시킨다. 이를 위해 CVCS에는 정화용 혼상 탈염기와 $^{7}$ Li$_3$ 조절용 양이온 탈염기가 설치되었으며, 각각의 탈염기는 독립적인 기능을 수행한다. 이는 원전 운전 중 중성자와 붕소($^{10}$ B$_{5}$ )의 핵반응으로 생성된 $^{7}$ Li$_3$3 의 회수가 불가능하기 때문에 정화 탈염기에는 값비싼 $^{7}$ Li$_3$ 포화형 수지를 충전하여야 한다. Pn 원전은 연료교체를 위해 주기적으로 연료계장전 기간을 갖으며 이에 따라 원자로 기동 수화학, 운전중 B/Li 농도조절에 의한 pH 화학, 원자로 정지화학 등의 주기적인 냉각재 수화학 관리를 해오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 효율적인 정화탈염기의 운영방안을 제시함으로 운전중 붕소의 핵분열로 생성되는 $^{7}$ Li$_3$ 의 회수가 가능하고 수지의 사용량 절감으로 수지폐기물 발생량 저감화를 이를 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The habitability of a reactor control room in a French 1300 MWe P'4 type PWR has been evaluated through the exposure dose assessment for the reactor operator following a Loss of Coolant Accident. The main hypotheses adopted in this evaluation are based on the French Standard Safety Analysis Report. A simple computer program, named COREX(Control Room EXposure), was developed to calculate : the time-integrated radioactivities released from the reactor building, the volume factors for radionuclides concerned and the resulting time-integrated external whole body and internal thyroid doses to the reactor operators staying in the control room up to 30 days following the LOCA. The results obtained in this study, on the whole, well agreed with those proposed by the EDF(Electricite de France) except for the case of the whole body exposure, which was attributed to the differences in the volume factors for the radionuclides concerned.
