The present paper describes an approximation for estimation of earthquake-induced hydrodynamic loads in rigid storage tank which accelerated in horizontal direction. The storage tank is vertically cylindrical, and the sectional shape may be circular, rectangular or irregular. The solution for harmonic excitation is studied based on velocity potential theory, and then the time domain solution for earthquake is obtained by using design response spectrum. As a result, earthquake load is influenced primarily by the inertia force of high frequency effective mass of the storage tank, responding to the characteristics of design response spectrum, tank sectional shape, and the ratio of tank base length to depth. Earthquake-induced hydrodynamic loads in rigid storage tank can be effectively obtained by using the high frequency approximation method in case of quite large, or small ratio of the tank base length to water depth.

In this paper, the effects of a skirt deformation on the responses of an Air Cushion Vehicle in waves are investigated. The air in the bag and in the plenum chamber is assumed to be compressible and to have a uniform instantaneous pressure distribution in each volume. The free surface deformation is determined in the framework of linear potential theory by replacing the cushion pressure with the pressure patch moving uniformly with an oscillating strength. And the bag-finger skirt is assumed to be deformed due to the pressure disturbance while its surface area remained constant. The restoring force and moment due to the deformation of bag-finger skirt from the equilibrium shape is included in the equations of hearse and pitch motions. The numerical results of motion responses due to various ratios of the bag and cushion pressure or bag-to-finger depth ratios are shown.

In the case of a Linear Induction Motor (LIM), numerical analysis method like Finite Element Method (FEM) has been mainly used to analyze the travelling magnetic field problem which includes the velocity-induced electromotive force. If the problem including the velocity-induced electromotive force is analyzed by FEM using the Galerkin method, the solution can be oscillated according to the Peclet Number, which is determined by conductivity, permeability, moving velocity and size of mesh. Consequently, the accuracy of the solution can be low and the vortexes of flux can be occurred at the secondary back-iron. These vortexes of the flux occurred at the secondary back-iron does not exist physically, but it can be occurred in the analysis. In this case, the vortexes of the flux can be generally removed by using Up-Wind method which is impossible to apply a conventional S/W tool (Maxwell 2D). Therefore, in this paper, authors examined the vortexes of the flux occurred at the secondary back-iron of the LIM according to variations of the Peclet Number, and analyzed whether these vortexes of the flux affect on the dynamic force characteristics of the LIM or not.

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.

박막 공정 기술은 반도체 및 디스플레이뿐만 아니라 대부분의 전자소자에 적용되는 매우 중요한 기술이다. 그 중, 마그네트론 스퍼터링 공정은 플라즈마를 이용하여 금속 및 세라믹 등의 벌크 물질을 박막으로 증착 가능한 가장 널리 사용되는 방법 중의 하나이다. 하지만, Fe, Co, Ni 같은 강자성체 재료는 공정이 불가능하며, 스퍼터링 타겟 효율이 40% 이하이고, 제한적인 방전압력 범위 및 전류 상승에 의한 높은 전압 인가 제한이 있다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서 사용된 고밀도 플라즈마 소스를 적용한 고효율 스퍼터링 시스템은 할로우 음극을 이용한 원거리에서 고밀도 플라즈마를 생성하여 전자석 코일을 통해 자석이 없는 음극으로 이온을 수송시켜 스퍼터링을 일으킨다. 따라서 강자성체 재료의 스퍼터링이 가능하며, 90% 이상의 타겟 사용 효율 구현 및 기존 마그네트론 스퍼터링 대비 고속 증착이 가능하다. 또한, $10^{-4}$ Torr 압력영역에서 방전 및 스퍼터링이 가능하다. 타겟 이온 전류를 타겟 인가 전압과 관계없이 0~4 A까지, 타겟 이온 전류와 상관없이 타겟 인가 전압을 70~1,000 V 이상까지 독립적으로 제어가능하다. 또한 TiN과 같은 질소 반응성 공정에서 반응성 가스인 질소를 40%까지 넣어도 타겟에 수송되는 이온의 양에 영향이 없다. 할로우 음극 방전 전류 40 A에서 발생된 플라즈마의 이온에너지 분포는 55 eV에서 가우시안 분포를 보였으며, 플라즈마 포텐셜인 sheath drop은 74 V 였다. OES를 통한 광학적 진단 결과, 전자석에 의한 이온빔 초점에 따라 플라즈마 이온화율을 1.8배까지 증가시킬 수 있으며, 할로우 음극 방전 전류가 60~100 A로 증가하면서 플라즈마 이온화율을 6배까지 증가 가능하다. 또한, 타겟 이온 전류와 관계없이 타겟 인가 전압을 300~800 V로 증가시킴에 따라 Ar 이온 밀도의 경우 1.4배 증가, Ti 이온 밀도의 경우 2.2배 증가시킬 수 있었으며, TiN의 경우 증착 속도도 16~44 nm/min으로 제어가 가능하다.

A potential-based panel method is presented for the analysis of a partially or supercavitating two-dimensional hydrofoil at a finite submergence beneath a free surface, treating without approximation the effects of the finite Froude number and the hydrostatic pressure. Free surface sources and normal dipoles are distributed on the foil and cavity surfaces, their strength being determined by satisfying the kinematic and dynamic boundary conditions on the foil-cavity boundary. The cavity surface is determined iteratively as a part of the solution. Numerical results show that the wave profile is altered significantly due to the presence of the cavity. The buoyancy effect due to the hydrostatic pressure, which has usually been neglected in most of the cavitating flow analysis, is found playing an important role, especially for the supercavitating hydrofoil; the gravity field increases the cavity size in shallow submergence, but decreases it when deeply submerged, while the lift reduces at all submergence depth.

This paper deals with the FEM analysis of nonlinear sloshing of incompressible, invicid and irrotational flow in two dimensional rectangular tank. We use laplace equation based on potential theory as governing equation. For large amplitude sloshing motion, kinematic and dynamic free surface conditions derived from Bernoulli equation are applied. This problem is solved by FEM using 9-node elements. For the time integration and accurate velocity calculation, we introduce predictor-corrector time marching scheme and least square method. Also, numerical stability in tracking of free surface is obtained by direct calculation of free surface location to time variation. Numerical results of sloshing induced by harmonic excitations, while comparing with those of linear theory and references, prove the accuracy and stability. After verification of our program, we analyze sloshing response characteristics to the fluid height and the excitation amplitude.

In this study, a large consolidation test was carried out to estimate the consolidation behaviour of dredged clay ground improved by horizontal drain using plastic board drain with a vacuum pressure. The test results were analyzed by a numerical simulation using potential consolidation theory applied to a hollow cylinder. The rapid decreases in pore pressure and the drain speed in the plastic board indicate that the consolidation occurred quickly after the vacuum state was applied to the test soil. According to the numerical analysis obtained by applying the linear potential consolidation theory to a clay hollow cylinder with external radial drainage, the pore pressure is affected by the strain and the permeability of the soil rather than by the diffusion types. Therefore, measured surface settlement agreed with the numerical solution at the point where consolidation pressure increasing rate u: -0.5. Also the behaviour of the clay layer settlement in the place where the drain was installed was similar to that shown in Barron's consolidation theory. Finally, the design and construction procedure including the selection of the appropriate arrangement of horizontal drains were discussed based on the results of the laboratory tutsts. It is also shown that the potential consolidation theory make it possible to predict consolidation behaviour in the field using horizontal drains exactly.

In this paper, we propose a controller with the self-organizing neural network compensator for compensating PID controller's response. PID controller has simple design method but needs a lot of trials and errors to determine coefficients. A neural network control method does not have optimal structure as the parameters are pre-specified by designers. In this paper, to solve this problem, we use a self-organizing neural network which has Back Propagation Network algorithm using a Gaussian Potential Function as an activation function of hidden layer nodes for compensating PID controller's output. Self-Organizing Neural Network's learning is proceeded by Gaussian Function's Mean, Variance and number which are automatically adjusted. As the results of simulation through the second order plant, we confirmed that the proposed controller get a good response compare with a PID controller. And we implemented the of controller performance hydraulic servo motor system using the DSP processor. Then we observed an experimental results.

Analytical solutions for regular waves generated by bottom wave makers in a 3-dimensional wave basin were derived in this study. Bottom wave makers which have triangular, rectangular and combination of two shapes were adopted. The 3-dimensional velocity potential was derived based on the linear wave theory with the bottom moving boundary condition, kinematic and dynamic free surface boundary conditions in a wave basin. Then, analytical solutions of 3-dimensional particle velocities and free surface displacement were derived from the velocity potential. The solutions showed physically valid results for regular waves generated by bottom wave makers in a wave basin. The analytical solution for obliquely propagating wave generation from bottom wave maker which works like a snake was also derived. Numerical results of the solution agree well with theoretically predicted results.
