A method to derive the constitutive relations of a piezoelectric bender actuator is developed here. The constitutive relations are derived from the geometry, material properties of the actuator. The very complicated constitutive relations can be easily calculated by use of symbolic function in Mathematica. The developed program can calculate the constitutive relations for the unimorph bender made by attaching a short piezoelectric beam on a longer metal beam. The program can also calculate the constitutive relations of a piezoelectric bender with spring at its end.

변위형 유한요소해에 기초하고 공액근사개념 및 Loubignac의 변위장 개선방법을 국부영역에 적용하여 국부영역에서의 응력장의 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법에서 계산된 국부영역의 응력장은 전체영역에 대한 응력장 개선 결과에 근접하며 유한요소 평형방정식을 잘 만족하친 있을 뿐만 아니라 수회 이내의 반복계산내에 수렴하고 있어서 계산시간이 크게 줄어들 수 있어서 국부영역에 대한 상세응력해석에 적절하게 이용될 수 있다.

This paper presents a nonlinear Moving Least Squares(MLS) difference method for material nonlinearity problem. The MLS difference method, which employs strong formulation involving the fast derivative approximation, discretizes governing partial differential equation based on a node model. However, the conventional MLS difference method cannot explicitly handle constitutive equation since it solves solid mechanics problems by using the Navier's equation that unifies unknowns into one variable, displacement. In this study, a double derivative approximation is devised to treat the constitutive equation of inelastic material in the framework of strong formulation; in fact, it manipulates the first order derivative approximation two times. The equilibrium equation described by the divergence of stress tensor is directly discretized and is linearized by the Newton method; as a result, an iterative procedure is developed to find convergent solution. Stresses and internal variables are calculated and updated by the return mapping algorithm. Effectiveness and stability of the iterative procedure is improved by using algorithmic tangent modulus. The consistency of the double derivative approximation was shown by the reproducing property test. Also, accuracy and stability of the procedure were verified by analyzing inelastic beam under incremental tensile loading.

This paper presents the prediction of the original gas in place(OGIP) by using the material balance method and decline curve analysis method with production history and pressure transient test data for four coalbed methane wells in the Horseshoe Canyon field. In this study, the conventional gas equation and the Jensen and Smith(J&S) equation were used to material balance analysis, and the Arps' empirical correlation and Khaled method were applied to decline curve analysis. From the results, the OGIP estimated from the conventional gas and the J&S method was small in difference as under 12%. Also, in case of decline curve analysis, it was found that the Khaled method has appropriated to calculate the OGIP, because the OGIP was estimated as unlimited value by the Arps' equation from the decline exponent of 1 - 3.5. The OGIP difference between conventional gas method and Khaled method was calculated as 8.67% ~ 31.04%, and those between J&S method and Khaled method was 13.67% ~ 26.49%.

This paper describes the stability analysis of TSK (Takagi-Sugeno-Kang) fuzzy systems which can represent a large class of nonlinear systems with good accuracy. A TSK fuzzy model consists of TSK fuzzy rules and the consequent of each fuzzy rule is a linear input-output equation with a constant term. There may exist equilibrium points more than one in the TSK fuzzy model and each equilibrium point rnay also have different nature of stability. The local stability of an equilibrium point is determined by eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix of the linearized TSK fuzzy model around the equilibrium point. Stability of both the continuous-time and the discrete-time systems is analyzed in this paper.

The limit of applicability of Navier-Stokes equation to stationary plane shock-waves is examined by using the principle of minimum entropy production of linear irreversible thermodynamics. In order to obtain analytic results, the equation is linearized near the equilibrium of downstream. Results show that the solution of Navier-Stokes equation which fits the boundary condition of far downstream flow is consistent with the thermodynamic requirement within the first order when the solution is expanded around the M=1, where M is the Mach number of upstream speed.

Purpose: This review article was written to determine the effects of parameters characterizing a hard contact lens (RGP included), such as BCs, diameters, edge angles, on the time interval for tight fitted lens to return to the equilibrium when it was decentered from blinking. Methods: A mathematical formulation was established to relate or calculate the restoring forces and thickness of lacrimal layer beneath the cornea with the various lens parameters when the tight fitted lens was decentered from blinking. Based on this formulation the differential equations and their numerical solution program were set up to describe the time dependence of the lens on the position and to estimate the time for the lens's return to the equilibrium after blink. Results: It is found that the time interval for the tight fitted lens to return to the equilibrium decreases as either the BC decreases or the diameter increases because both the reduction in BC and increase in diameter result in the increase in the lacrimal layer thickness between the lens and cornea increase which yielded the lowering of the viscous friction in the lens motion. As the edge angle of tight fitted lens increases the time for recentering decreases due to the increase in restoring force without change in lacrimal thickness beneath the lens. In the case of flat fitted hard lens (RGP included), the lacrimal layer thickness under the lens increases as either BC or diameter increases which results in reduction in viscous friction so that the time for the lens's return to the equilibrium were to decrease. The edge angle of flat fitted lens does not affect the lens motion. Conclusions: The effect of BCs on the lens motion (time to approach the equilibrium) was concluded to be significant with both tight and flat fitted lens where its results are contrary with each other. The edge angle of lens only affects the motion in tight fitted lenses.

General time-volume averaged conservation equations and jump conditions for two-phase flows are derived here. The time-averaged equations for a single phase region in two-phase flow are obtained from local instant balance equations by a technique often used for single phase turbulent flow equations. The results obtained by integrating the time averaged equations over a flow volume are spatially averaged twice; first, they are averaged over a single phase region of the k-th phase and then averaged over the total volume of the k-th phase, in a flow volume. The mass, momentum, and energy conservation equations are obtained from the general time-volume averaged equations. The advantages of the present model are explained by comparing it with Ishii's model (1) and Banerjee's model (2). Finally, the assumptions and approximate terms of the equations of the THERMIT-6S are clarified.
