In this paper, the Finite-Difference Time-Domain(FDTD) modeling method of the Korean human head is introduced to calculate electromagnetic energy absorption for the human head by mobile phones. After MRI scanning data is obtained, 2 dimensional(2D) segmentation is done from the 2D MRI image data by the semi-automatic method. Then, 3D dense segmentation data with $1mm\times1mm\times1mm$ is constructed from the 2D segmentation data. Using the 3D segmentation data, coarse FDTD models of human head that is tilted arbitrarily to model the condition of tilted usage of mobile phone.

In this paper, the surface settlement resulted from the shallow TBM tunnelling has been numerically simulated. TBM tunnelling is especially used in urban area to avoid serious vibration and noise caused by explosion in NATM. Surface settlement is one of the most important problems encountered in all tunnelling and critical in urban areas. In this study, face vibration of TBM excavation is considered to estimate surface settlement trend according to TBM extrusion. The dynamic excavation forces are calculated by total torque on the TBM cutterhead in mixed-face of soil and weathered rock condition with shallow depth. A 3-dimensional FDM code is employed to simulate TBM tunnelling and mechanical-dynamic coupling analysis is performed. The 3D numerical analysis results showed that dynamic settlement histories and trend of surface settlement successfully. The maximum settlement occurred at the excavation point located at 2.5D behind the face, and the effect of face vibration on the surface settlement was verified in this study.

본 연구에서는 정전계 에너지를 이용하여 IPS-LCD의 화소와 각 전극간 정전용량을 엄정한 방법으로 계산하였다. 정전계 에너지는 전극의 유한한 크기로 인해 발생하는 측면 전장효과를 고려한 3차원 방향자와 전위분포를 시뮬레이션 함으로써 얻을 수 있었다. 수치해석 방법으로는 유한차분법을 사용하였다. 그 결과 IPS-LCD의 화소 정전용량과 게이트-공통전극간 정전용량은 구조적 특성으로 인해 기존의 TN-LCD와 비교하여 1/16배 가량으로 훨씬 더 작은 값을 나타냄이 확인되었다.

The effectiveness of various electrode configurations in horizontal mappings and 1-D inversions of vertical sounding data for delineating 2-D structures was studied. Apparent resistivity values of three point, dipole-dipole, Wenner, and Schlumberger mappings were simulated for such structures as vertical dyke, tabular prism, buried vertical fault, ramp and complex structure by finite difference method (FDM) and they were compared with each other. Also 2-D cross sections for three structures obtained by interpolation of 1-D inverted sounding data in terms of three layers were compared for Schlumberger and Wenner arrays. On these cross sections, horizontal and vertical resistivity interfaces of the 2-D structures are revealed relatively clearly. Apparent resistivity curves of Schlumberger mapping show vertical resistivity discontinuities very well. On the whole, Schlumberger array is superior to the other arrays in electric sounding as well as mapping. This study clearly indicates that interpretations of 2-D structures based on 1-D inversion are possible.

To simulate the transport of pollutant, a numeric model for the advection-diffusion equation with the decay term is developed. This is finite-difference model using the implicit method (with the weight factor ${\alpha}$) and Gauss-Seidel SOR(successive over-relaxation). This model is compared to the analytical solutions (of simpler dimensional or boundary conditions), and in the condition of Peclet number < 5~20, the result shows stable condition, and Crank-Nicolson method (${\alpha}$=0.5) shows the more accurate results than fully-implicit method (${\alpha}$=1). The mass of advection, diffusion and decay is calculated and the error of mass balance is less than 3%. This model can evaluate the 3-D concentrations of the advection-diffusion and decay problems, but this model uses only the finite-difference method with the fixd grid system, so it can be effectively used in the problems with small Peclet numbers like the pollutant transport in groundwater.

Three-dimensional hydrodynamic numerical simulation is carried out to investigate the effects of the coastal land reclamation on the marine hydrodynamics, environment and ecosystem. The changes of tide, tidal currents and residual currents, including tide-induced, wind driven and density driven components due to the construction of the sea dike system are simulated numerically The governing equations transformed into o-coordinates are solved by an implicit finite difference method. The numerical model is calibrated using the tide charts of 4 major tidal constituents, M$_2$, S$_2$, $K_1$ and $O_1$. The numerical solutions show that there are significant changes of residual currents, especially induced by both tidal and wind-driven currents.

반도체 공정에서 소자의 제조 비용 감소를 위해 제조 공정 검증을 위한 시뮬레이션을 수행하게 된다. 이 시뮬레이션은 반도체 소자 내부의 물리량 계산을 통해 반도체 소자 내부의 불순물의 거동을 해석하게 된다. 이를 위해 사용되는 알고리즘으로 3차원적 형상을 표현하는 물리적 미분 미분방정식을 계산하게 되는데, 정확한 계산을 위해 유한 차분 시간 영역법(이하 FDTD)과 같은 수치해석 기법을 이용한다. 실제적으로 반도체 공정의 시뮬레이션에서 FDTD연산의 실행 시간은 90% 이상을 소요하게 된다. 이러한 연산에서 더욱 빠른 성능을 확보하기 위해 본 논문에서는 기존의 CUDA(Compute Unified Device Architecture)로 구현된 FDTD알고리즘을 OpenMP를 통한 다중 GPU제어를 이용하여 연산 수행시간을 감소하고, 그 결과물을 통하여 성능 향상도를 측정한다.

In order to prevent leakage of contaminants in offshore landfill, vertical barrier should be installed. Vertical barrier should be installed at designed depth of seabed to prevent the horizontal transport of contaminant in the subsurface. In this study, the seepage and contaminant transport in the subsurface according to embedded depth of vertical barrier were analyzed by using 2-D finite element analysis program SEEP/W and 3-D finite difference analysis program Visual Modflow. Numerical modelling results show that seepage flux and contaminant transport in seabed was greatly reduced when vertical barrier was installed at certain depth of low permeable layer. Therefore, the determination of minimum embedded depth for preventing contaminant leakage is helpful to design the economical vertical barrier.

In this paper, a numerical comparison of predictions by limit equilibrium analysis and 3D analysis is presented for slope/pile system. Special attention is given to the coupled analysis based on the explicit finite difference code, FLAC 3D. To this end, an internal routine (FISH) was developed to calculate a factor of safety for a file reinforced slope according to shear strength reduction technique. The case of coupled analyses was performed for stabilizing piles in slope in which the pile response and slope stability are considered simultaneously. In this study, by using these methods, the failure surfaces and factors of safety were compared and analyzed in several cases, such as toe, middle and top of the slope, respectively. Furthermore, the coupled method based on shear strength reduction technique was verified by the comparison with other analysis results.
