In order to generate the 3D structure of the 21-cm signal during the reionization, semi-numerical simulations based on Excursion set formalism are broadly used. However, semi-numerical simulations in the realization of the 3D structure are known to be the ionizing photon non-conserving by the structure of the Excursion set approach. Recently, explicit photon conserving algorithms for semi-numerical simulations introduced, but they are still too slow when forward modelling the 21-cm signal with high-dimensional parameter spaces. Here, we introduce a new method for approximately correcting photon non-conservation, which can be applied on-the-fly. This method is tailored towards the efficient simulation and Bayesian inference with high-dimensional parameter space. Then, we investigate how large an impact that photon non-conservation has on astrophysical parameter inference by performing an MCMC analysis. We find that the ionizing escape parameter is deviated from the fiducial value by 2 sigma when we infer astrophysical parameters without this correction.

In the 2D/1D method, a global adjoint CMFD based on the generalized equivalence theory is built to synthesize the 2D radial MOC adjoint and 1D axial NEM adjoint calculation and also to accelerate the iteration convergence of 3D whole-core adjoint transport calculation. Even more important, an advanced yet accurate two-level (TL) CMFD acceleration technique is proposed, in which an equivalent one-group adjoint CMFD is established to accelerate the multi-group adjoint CMFD and then to accelerate the 3D whole-core adjoint transport calculation efficiently. Based on these method, a new code is developed to perform 3D adjoint neutron flux calculation. Then a set of VERA and C5G7 benchmark problems are chosen to verify the capability of the 3D adjoint calculations and the effectiveness of TL CMFD acceleration. The numerical results demonstrate that acceptable accuracy of 2D/1D adjoint calculations and superior acceleration of TL CMFD are achievable.

Numerical flow computations around an aeroelastic 3D square cylinder immersed in the turbulent boundary layer are shown. Present computational code can be characterized by three numerical aspects which are 1) the method of artificial compressibility is adopted for the incompressible flow computations, 2) the domain decomposition technique is used to get better grid point distributions, and 3) to achieve the conservation law both in time and space when the flow is computed a with moving and transformed grid, the time derivatives of metrics are evaluated using the time-and-space volume. To provide time-dependant inflow boundary conditions satisfying prescribed time-averaged velocity profiles, a convenient way for generating inflow turbulence is proposed. The square cylinder is modeled as a 4-lumped-mass system and it vibrates with two-degree of freedom of heaving motion. Those blocks which surround the cylinder are deformed according to the cylinder's motion. Vigorous oscillations occur as the vortex shedding frequency approaches cylinder's natural frequencies.

Numerical simulations for various fluid flows require enormous computing time during iterations. In order to solve this problem, several techniques have been proposed. A SOR method is one of the effective methods for solving elliptic equations. However, it is very difficult to find the optimum relaxation factor, the value of this factor for practical problems used to be estimated on the basis of expertise. In this paper, the implication of the relaxation factor are translated into fuzzy control rules on the basis of the expertise of numerical analysers, and fuzzy controller incorporated into a numerical algorithm. From two cases of study, Poisson equation and cavity flow problem, we confirmed the possibility of computational acceleration with fuzzy logic and qualitative reasoning in numerical simulations. Numerical experiments with the fuzzy controller resulted in generating a good performance.

The hydro-mechanical (HM) two-way sequential coupling in the TOUGH2-FLAC3D linking algorithm is validated completely and successfully in both M to H and H to M directions, which are initiated by mechanical surface loading for geomechanical validation and hydrological groundwater pumping for hydrogeological validation, respectively. For such complete and successful validation, a TOUGH2-FLAC3D linked numerical model is developed first by adopting the TOUGH2-FLAC3D linking algorithm, which uses the two-way (fixed-stress split) sequential coupling scheme and the implicit backward time stepping method. Two geomechanical and two hydrogeological validation problems are then simulated using the linked numerical model together with basic validation strategies and prerequisites. The second geomechanical and second hydrogeological validation problems are also associated with the Mandel effect and the Noordbergum and Rhade effects, respectively, which are three phenomenally well-known but numerically challenging HM effects. Finally, sequentially coupled numerical solutions are compared with either analytical solutions (verification) or fully coupled numerical solutions (benchmarking). In all the four validation problems, they show almost perfect to extremely or very good agreement. In addition, the second geomechanical validation problem clearly displays the Mandel effect and suggests a proper or minimum geometrical ratio of the height to the width for the rectangular domain to maximize agreement between the numerical and analytical solutions. In the meantime, the second hydrogeological validation problem clearly displays the Noordbergum and Rhade effects and implies that the HM two-way sequential coupling scheme used in the linked numerical model is as rigorous as the HM two-way full coupling scheme used in a fully coupled numerical model.

As computer capacity has been progressed continuously, the studies of the flow characteristics have been performing by the numerical methods actively. In this study, 3-dimensional unsteady incompressible Wavier-Stokes equation was solved by numerical method using the fractional step method with the fourth order compact pade' scheme to achieve high accuracy To validate the present code and algorithm, 3D flow-field around a cylinder was simulated. The drag coefficient and lift coefficient were computed and, then, compared with experiment. The present code will be tailored to LES simulation for more accurate turbulent flow analysis.

Finite element method (FEM) has been widely used as a useful numerical method that can analyze complex engineering problems in electro-magnetics, mechanics, and others. CEMTool, which is similar to MATLAB, is a command style design and analyzing package for scientific and technological algorithm and a matrix based computation language. In this paper, we present new 3D FEM package in CEMTool environment. In contrast to the existing CEMTool 2D FEM package and MATLAB PDE (Partial Differential Equation) Toolbox, our proposed 3D FEM package can deal with complex 3D models, not a cross-section of 3D models. In the pre-processor of 3D FEM package, a new 3D mesh generating algorithm can make information on 3D Delaunay tetrahedral mesh elements for analyses of 3D FEM problems. The solver of the 3D FEM package offers three methods for solving the linear algebraic matrix equation, i.e., Gauss-Jordan elimination solver, Band solver, and Skyline solver. The post-processor visualizes the results for 3D FEM problems such as the deformed position and the stress. Consequently, with our new 3D FEM toolbox, we can analyze more diverse engineering problems which the existing CEMTool 2D FEM package or MATLAB PDE Toolbox can not solve.

3D Equivalent magnetic Circuit Network Method (EMCNM) is comparatively the easy way that analyzes 3D models of Electric Machine by using permeance as a distributive magnetic circuit parameter under the existing magnetic equivalent circuit method and Numerical Method. The existing 3D EMCNM could not correctly describe the shape of an analysis target when using rectangular shape element or fan shape element, so it made errors when calculating permeance. Therefore, this paper proposes the trapezoidal element contained rectangular element, fan-shape element, and quadrilateral element to express a shape. The proposed method in this research was confirmed as a useful and an accurate method through comparing with the analysis result of SRM model that is sufficiently guaranteed by 2D-Analysis.

본 연구에서는 Navier-Stokes solver에 기초한 TWOPM-3D와 자유수면을 효과적으로 추적할 수 있는 VOF법을 결합한 수치해석법으로 연안역의 육상 교량에 작용하는 고립파에 의한 지진해일파력을 수치적으로 검토하였으며, 연직벽체와 연직주상구조물에 작용하는 단파파력에 관한 기존의 실험치와 비교 검토하여 본 수치해석의 타당성을 검증하였다. 실제로 피해를 입은 교량에 대해 지진해일파고의 변화에 따른 파력의 특성을 수치실험을 통하여 조사하였으며, 육상 교량에 작용하는 지진해일파력의 추정에 항력 성분만을 고려한 Morison식으로부터 얻어진 항력계수의 결과와 설계기준과의 비교로부터 본 3차원 수치해석의 유용성을 논의하였다. 또한, 지진해일파력을 보다 고정도로 추정할 수 있는 합리적인 방법으로 항력과 관성력을 동시에 고려한 Morison식의 적용을 제안하였다.
