This paper deals with the design of a touch free eddy-current brake for high speed transportation systems by using 2-dimensional Finite Element Method (2-D FEM). The eddy current brake systems have to equipped with maximum braking force and deceleration at the given volume or mass, high braking force at small rate, attraction forces as small as possible and stable construction. The parameters, such as the number of pole, electric ampere-turns and slot width have influence on these braking characteristics. For the magnet to satisfy above-mentioned performance in high speed, the braking performance according to variation of the parameters are analyzed by the 2-D FEM. In addition, the magnet stack width is determined from equivalent stack width that is calculated by solution of the Field with scalar potential. From these results, the magnet of optimized configuration with maximum braking force and minimum attraction force is designed by the process of detail design.

This paper describes the system engineering approach for the heat transfer analysis of plus7 fuel rod for APR1400 using, a commercial software, ANSYS. The fuel rod is composed of fuel pellets, fill gas, end caps, plenum spring and cladding. The heat is transferred from the pellet outward by conduction through the pellet, fill gas and cladding and further by convection from the cladding surface to the coolant in the flow channel. The goal of this paper is to demonstrate the temperature and heat flux change from the fuel centerline to the cladding surface when having maximum fuel centerline temperature at 100% power. This phenomenon is modelled using the ANSYS FEM code and analyzed for steady state temperature distribution across the fuel pellet and clad and the results were compared to the standard values given in APR1400 SSAR. Specifically the applicability of commercial software in the evaluation of nuclear fuel temperature distribution has been accounted. It is note that special codes have been used for fuel rod mechanical analysis which calculates interrelated effects of temperature, pressure, cladding elastic and plastic behavior, fission gas release, and fuel densification and swelling under the time-varying irradiation conditions. To satisfactorily meet this objective we apply system engineering methodologies to formulate the process and allow for verification and validation of the results acquired. The close proximity of the results obtained validated the accuracy of the FEM analysis of the 2D axisymmetric model and 3D model. This result demonstrated the validity of commercial software instead of proprietary in-house code that is more costly to develop and maintain.

선형유도전동기와 같은 속도기전력을 포함하는 운동자계 문제를 Galerkin 법을 이용하는 FEM으로 해석할 경우, Peclet Number의 값에 따라 해가 오실레이션 할 수 있으므로 해의 안정성이 떨어지게 되며, 더불어서 2차측 Back-Iron에서 자속이 외부와 쇄교하지 못하고 내부에서 맴도는 자속 맴돌이 현상이 발생하게 된다. 이 경우, 일반적으로 Up-Wind 기법을 이용하여 자속의 맴돌이 현상을 해결하게 되는데, 범용 S/W Tool(Maxwell 2D)의 경우 Up-Wind 기법을 적용하기가 힘들다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Peclet Number 값에 따른 선형유도전동기의 2차측 Back-Iron에서 발생하는 자속의 맴돌이 현상을 살펴보고, 자속의 맴돌이 현상이 선형유도전동기의 동특성에 어떠한 영향을 끼치는지를 분석하였다.

An aim of the study is to develop an efficient numerical simulation technique that can handle the two-scale analysis of fluid permeation filters fabricated by the partial sintering technique of small spherical ceramics. A solid-fluid mixture homogenization method is introduced to predict the mechanical characters such as rigidity and permeability of the porous ceramic filters from the micro-scale geometry and configuration of partially-sintered particles. An extended finite element (X-FE) discretization technique based on the enriched interpolations of respective characteristic functions at fluid-solid interfaces is proposed for the non-interface-fitted mesh solution of the micro-scale analysis that needs non-slip condition at the interface between solid and fluid phases of the unit cell. The homogenization and localization performances of the proposed method are shown in a typical two-dimensional benchmark problem whose model has a hole in center. Three-dimensional applications to the body-centered cubic (BCC) and face-centered cubic (FCC) unit cell models are also shown in the paper. The 3D application is prepared toward the computer-aided optimal design of ceramic filters. The accuracy and stability of the X-FEM based method are comparable to those of the standard interface-fitted FEM, and are superior to those of the voxel type FEM that is often used in such complex micro geometry cases.

Composites are very useful material for light train carbody due to its high specific strength and lightweight characteristics. The composites, called 3-D board, are developed with a special stitching method. In this process, the glass fiber fabrics of skin material and foam core material are stitched together with glass fiber thread. The glass thread in Z-axis turns into FRP form. The conventional delamination problem can be solved with 3-D sandwich structure. In addition, with the lower density of foam, the weight of the panel and the operation expenses can be highly reduced. To evaluate the usefulness of the 3-D board, the double-deck light train carbody is studied. The stress analyses are carried out under various loads and boundary conditions with FEM Code, ANSYS. On comparing with the aluminum carbody, 3-D board carbody can be reduced by about 2 ton for the total weight of carbody.

본 연구에서는 접이식 웨지를 장착한 강관네일의 거동 특성 평가를 위해 현장인발시험 및 3차원 수치해석을 수행하였다. 접이식 웨지를 장착한 강관네일의 현장인발시험 결과 접이식 웨지가 없는 경우에 비해 약 30% 정도의 인발 저항 증진효과가 있는 것으로 평가되었다. 한편, 강관네일의 합리적인 인발거동 분석을 위해 3차원 수치해석에서는 접이식 웨지가 장착 되지 않은 강관네일의 역해석을 통하여 현장 인발거동과 일치하는 네일과 지반사이의 마찰 특성을 평가하고, 이를 접이식 웨지가 장착된 강관네일의 해석에 도입하여 그 거동을 분석하였다. 시행착오를 통한 역해석 결과 그라우트와 지반 사이의 마찰계수(${\mu}$)는 약 1.2 정도가 발휘되는 것으로 평가되었으며, 강관네일의 극한인발저항력은 $$T_L{\sim_=}32$$ tonf으로 접이식 웨지가 장착되지 않은 네일의 $$T_L{\sim_=}24$$ tonf 보다 약 33% 증가하는 것으로 평가되어 현장인발시험결과와 거의 일치하는 것으로 나타났다.

A large deformation FEM (Finite Element Method) based numerical analysis has been performed to study the behaviour of the bell-shaped anchor embedded in undrained saturated (cohesive) soil with the help of finite element based software ABAQUS. A typical model anchor with bell-diameter of 0.125 m, embedded in undrained saturated soil with varying cohesive strength (from 5 kN/m² to 200 kN/m²) has been chosen for studying the characteristic behaviour of the bell-shaped anchor installed in cohesive soil. Breakout factors have been evaluated for each case and verified with the results of experimental model tests for three different types of soil samples. The maximum value of breakout factor was found as about 8.5 within a range of critical embedment ratio of 2.5 to 3. An explicit model has been developed to estimate the breakout factor (F_c) for uplift capacity of bell-shaped anchor within clay mass in terms of H/D ratio (embedment ratio). It was also found that, the ultimate uplift capacity of the anchor increases with the increase of the value of cohesive strength of the soil and H/D ratio. The empirical equation developed in the present investigation is usable within the range of cohesion value and H/D ratio from 5 kN/m² to 200 kN /m² and 0.5 to 3.0 respectively. The proposed model has been validated against data obtained from a series of model tests carried out in the present investigation. From the stress-profile analysis of the soil mass surrounding the anchor, occurrence of stress concentration is found to be generated at the joint of anchor shaft and bell. It was also found that the vertical and horizontal stresses surrounding the anchor diminish at about a distance of 0.3 m and 0.15 m respectively.

Die sinking electrical discharge machining(EDM) was conducted for ceramic composite of 33 weight percent TiC based on AI$_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic matrix according to the change of current and duty factor(DF). Material removal rate(MRR) was increased as the current and the duty factor increased, but better surface mor-pholoty was obtained in the region of lower current and duty factor. From the scanning electron microscopy(SEM) photographs and the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX) of the EDMed surface, EDM trace formed by one discharge spark was analyzed. Although the bending strength after EDM was highly decreased, reliability obtained by weibull analysis was increased twice. The bending strength was recovered or more by barrel polishing after EDM. From the FEM analysis of temperature for one spark, the possible melting region of AI$_{2}$O$_{3}$and TiC was obtained.

This article presents the numerical modelling of transient heat transfer in highly heterogeneous composite materials where the thermal conductivity, specific heat and density are assumed to be directional-dependent. This article uses a coupled finite element-finite difference scheme to perform the transient heat transfer analysis of unidirectional (1D) and multidirectional (2D/3D) functionally graded composite panels. Here, 1D/2D/3D functionally graded structures are subjected to nonuniform heat source and inhomogeneous boundary conditions. Here, the multidirectional functionally graded materials are modelled by varying material properties in individual or in-combination of spatial directions. Here, fully spatial-dependent material properties are evaluated using Voigt's micromechanics scheme via multivariable power-law functions. The weak form is obtained through the Galerkin method and solved further via the element-space and time-step discretisation through the 2D-isoparametric finite element and the implicit backward finite difference schemes, respectively. The present model is verified by comparing it with the previously reported results and the commercially available finite element tool. The numerous illustrations confirm the significance of boundary conditions and material heterogeneity on the transient temperature responses of 1D/2D/3D functionally graded panels.

터널의 3차원 해석을 통한 발파진동 평가시에 최대진동속도를 산정하기 위해 구조물 하부에서의 진동응답이 감소하는 터널직경의 3D위치까지의 경계를 설정하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 구조물하부에서 터널발파시 진동성분이 장약으로부터 구형형상으로 전파되어나갈 때 구조물에서 발파막장의 거리가 터널직경의 약 1-2배일 때 최대진동속도를 나타내었으며, 수치해석시에는 속도성분영역을 확인하여 정확한 구형의 발파진동속도영역의 산정이 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 속도성분과 기존의 발파진동전파식을 비교한 결과 터널심도 15m, 25m일 경우에는 유사하게 나타났으나, 터널심도 35m일 경우에는 기존 발파진동전파식과는 상당한 차이를 보이므로 터널심도가 터널직경의 5배 이상일 경우에는 기존발파진동전파식에 의한 속도성분이 수치해석에 비해 과다하게 산정됨을 알 수 있었다.
