  • Even though there are many analysis methods of circular tanks on elastic foundation, the finite element method is widely used for that purpose. But the finite element method requires a number of memory spaces, computation time to solve large stiffness equations. In this study many the simplified methods(Analogy of Beam on Elastic Foundation, Foundation Stiffness Matrix, Finite Element Method and Transfer Matrix Method) are applied to analyze a circular tank on elastic foundation. By the given analysis methods, BEF analogy and foundation matrix method, the circular tank was transformed into the skeletonized frame structure. The frame structure was divided into several finite elements. The stiffness matrix of a finite element is related with the transfer matrix of the element. Thus, the transfer matrix of each finite element utilized the transfer matrix method to simplify the analysis of the tank. There were no significant difference in the results of two methods, the finite element method and the transfer matrix method. The transfer method applied to a circular tank on elastic foundation resulted in four simultaneous equations to solve completely.

  • The current geometric and vector textbooks focus on the mechanical activities of finding focus, corner, etc. through elliptic equations. In this paper, we propose a process in which analogy and analytical methods are used in reversible activities of focusing from a given elliptic graph without a coordinate plane. The exploratory tool was used as Geogebra. At first, students tried to find the focus of the ellipse by randomly constructing the major a is and the minor a is in the given ellipse. However, we have experienced a method of constructing the circle of symmetry and analyzed this principle and deduced it to the ellipse. As a result, we could construct the center, long a is and short a is of the ellipse. Then, using the analytical method, the focus formula was recognized as the Pythagorean theorem, and the ellipse's focus was constructed by using the original drawing. Therefore, it is confirmed that analogy and analytical method can positively affect the elliptical focus.

  • In this paper, aerodynamic noise simulation was conducted using DES (Detached Eddy Simulation) and FW-H (Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings) acoustic analogy for the tandem cylinders which have configuration similar to a landing gear of airplanes. Numerical simulation for the tandem cylinders whose centers are 3.7D apart was carried out and results were compared with the measured data such as flow characteristics, pressure coefficients on the cylinder surfaces and far-field noise characteristics. It was confirmed that periodically shedded vortices released at the upstream cylinder and impinged on the downstream cylinder surface are major sources of aerodynamic noise. After verifying the computational method of using DES and FW-H acoustic analogy for predicting aerodynamic noise of tandem cylinders, additional simulation was conducted to examine the effect of attaching a splitter plate at the rear of the upstream cylinder. It was confirmed that the noise level in specific frequency band decreased significantly because the splitter plate changed the vortex shedding features and reduced dipole noise source.

  • This study was aiming at assessing the vulnerability of forest distribution by the A2 and B1 climate change scenarios of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The vulnerability of forest distribution was assessed using its sensitivity and adaptation to climate change with the help of the simulations of Korean-specific forest distribution model, so-called the Thermal Analogy Group (TAG), and the Plant Functional Type (PFT) defined in the HyTAG (Hydrological and Thermal Analogy Groups) model. As a result, the vulnerable area occupied 30.78% and 2.81% of Korea in A2 and B1 scenario, respectively. When it comes to the administrative districts, Pusan in A2 and Daegu in B1 appeared the most vulnerable area. This study would be employed into preparation of adaptative measures for forest in future in terms of using climate change scenarios reflecting different future development conditions.

  • The heat transfer coefficient on the wall, which is used as a boundary condition in the thermal analysis of general contract-divergent supersonic nozzles, affects the thermal analysis accuracy of the entire nozzle. Accordingly, many methods of deriving a heat transfer coefficient have been proposed. In this study, the accuracy of each method was compared. For this purpose, the heat transfer coefficients were calculated through theoretical-based analogy methods, semi-empirical equations, and CFD simulations for the previously performed heat transfer experiment with an isothermal wall and compared with the experimental results. The results show that the Prandtl-Taylor analogy methods and the CFD results with the k-ω SST turbulence model were in good agreement with the experimental results. Furthermore, the Modified Bartz empirical formula showed an overall over-prediction tendency.

  • In this study, we collected teachers' opinions with regard to the effects of the instruction using analogy generation, the disadvantages of the instruction, the problem-solving methods of the instruction, and the teacher's role in it, and accordingly tried to investigate its effectiveness with the analysis of students' academic achievements and motivation, and through the student's interview, after applying the activities of creating generated analogies, finding the difference between the objects and comparisons, and presenting new-known genetics concepts as the students themselves generated analogies. As a result of a teachers' workshop on instruction using analogy development, it was expected to have a positive effect on students' understanding of scientific concepts in genetics, which were found to be difficult for students to understand in learning biology. Students found analogy examples for concepts in genetics in daily life, compared their analogs to those of peers, and examined inconsistencies between targets and analogs through the process of discussion, which finally led to their correct perception of scientific concepts in genetics. In addition, instruction using student-generated analogies proved to have a more positive effect on improving academic achievement and motivating learning, compared with traditional expository instruction.

  • From the study on A Study on A Study on Formation of Oriental Medicine Theory based on Analogical Inference, the conclusion is as follows. Analogical inference belonging to informal logic has very important point that it makes new knowledges of unknown field from basis of common knowledge field. The form of Analogical Inference is "A: a-B: (b)", In "Naegyeong(內經)", models of analogy are classified into two types. One is that of analogical inference making new knowledges in company with effects of Heung-gi(興起), Another is to unite common knowledges, While the example of analogy between military science and medicine belongs to type of the former, example of bureaucracy and medicine belongs to type of the latter, that based on rearrangement of common knowledge. Two type have similar system of national government or military management in basis. In such process of analogical inference, we expect that new knowledges of Oriental Medicine would be accumulated in the future, in the same way of the past.

  • The purposes of this study were to analyze the effect of a scaffold to help in understanding the principle of land and sea breeze through the convection current box experiment and to analyze the students' inference abilities and analogy abilities. For this purpose, the 60 elementary students who had not learned the principle of land and sea breeze were surveyed and analyzed. When using the scaffold to compare the movement of the incense smoke in the convection current box with that of the incense smoke on the outside of the convection current box, the rate of the students who correctly understood the principle of the land and sea breeze between the sea and the land was very low. The result shows that the scaffold used in this study do not help sufficiently in understanding the principle of the land and sea breeze through analogy and it is necessary to introduce a new scaffold for the elementary students to understand it.

  • The actuating performance of plate-type unimorph piezoelectric composite actuators having various stacking sequences was evaluated by three dimensional finite element analysis on the basis of thermal analogy model. Thermal residual stress distribution at each layer in an asymmetrically laminated plate with PZT ceramic layer and thermally induced dome height were predicted using classical laminated plate theory. Thermal analogy model was applied to a bimorph cantilever beam and LIPCA-C2 actuator in order to confirm its validity. Finite element analysis considering thermal residual deformation showed that the bending behavior of piezoelectric composite actuator subjected to electric loads was significantly different according to the stacking sequence, thickness of constituent PZT ceramic and boundary conditions. In particular, the increase of thickness of PZT ceramic led to the increase of the bending stiffness of piezoelectric composite actuator but it did not always lead to the decrease of actuation distance according to the stacking sequences of piezoelectric composite actuator. Therefore, it is noted that the actuating performance of unimorph piezoelectric composite actuator is rather affected by bending stiffness than actuation distance.

  • Internal aeroacoustics of an axial fan used for circulating cold air in refrigerators are computed by using the hybrid method where CFD, acoustic analogy and BEM techniques are utilized. The unsteady flow field around the axial fan is predicted by solving the incompressible RANS equations with the conventional CFD techniques. Then, main noise sources are extracted from this unsteady flow field predictions using Acoustic Analogy. Lastly, BPF noise generated from an axial fan are predicted using these modeled sources combined with the tailed Green function techniques, which are numerically solved by the BEM technique. This hybrid model is validated by comparing the prediction with the experiment. Then, parameter studies are carried out, which suggest a capability of the current method as a design tool for the low-noise of the current axial fan system in a refrigerator.
