In this paper, the FREECAD 0.14 was used for modeling conventional Selfie-stick and the newly proposed Selfie-stick design. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the utility of FREECAD 0.14, which is open-source and still in development for further use. After modeling the conventional Selfie-stick, CatiyaV5 was used to assemble FREECAD 0.14 drawn elements. Main advance in newly designed Selfie-stick is the portability. To improve portability of the Selfie-stick, folding mechanism was adopted from folding LED stands. Several mechanisms were adopted to improve user convenience as well. Ansys 14.0 was used for structural analyses of conventional Selfie-stick model and the newly designed model as well. Several simplifications for the models were needed to process the analyses. When analyzing the newly designed model various materials were used one by one to find compatible composition. Using Aluminum alloys for the stick and the hand grip was found to be compatible. FREECAD was useful for suggestion of the newly designed model but not so much useful to design an actual product. Various efforts would make FREECAD the best choice for industrial use for free as it is named.

A linear ultrasonic motor was designed by a combination of the longitudinal and bending mode. linear ultrasonic motors are based on an elliptical motion on the surface of elastic body, such as bar or plates. The corresponding eigen-mode of one resonance frequency can be excited twice at the same time with a phase shift of 90 degrees in space and time. That is excite symmetric and anti-symmetric modes. Then it determines the thrust and speed of the motor. Linear ultrasonic motors are investigated experimentally in according to be fabricated a general classification to motor structure and material characteristic. There was the first to simulate as use of finite element analysis ANSYS 9.0. The AL-T2W8-ARM14-LEG18-ANGLE80 motor has a maxim efficiency 18 % under the speed 0.14 m/s, thrust 345 gf and preload 280 gf, operating frequency is 57.6 kHz.

sump pump is a system that draws in water that is stored in a dam or reservoir. They are used to pump large amounts of water for cooling systems in large power plants, such as thermal and nuclear plants. However, if the flow and sump pump ratio are small, the flow rate increases around the inlet port. This causes a turbulent vortex or swirl flows. The turbulent flow reduces the performance and can cause failure. Various methods have been devised to solve the problem, but a correct solution has not been found for low water level. The most efficient solution is to install an anti-vortex device (AVD) or increase the length of the sump inlet, which makes the flow uniform. This paper presents a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of the flow characteristics in a sump pump for different sump inlet lengths and AVD types. Modeling was performed in three stages based on the pump intake, sump, and pump. For accurate analysis, the grid was made denser in the intake part, and the grid for the sump pump and AVD were also dense. 1.2-1.5 million grid elements were generated using ANSYS ICEM-CFD 14.5 with a mixture of tetra and prism elements. The analysis was done using the SST turbulence model of ANSYS CFX14.5, a commercial CFD program. The conditions were as follows: H.W.L 6.0 m, L.W.L 3.5, Qmax 4.000 kg/s, Qavg 3.500 kg/s Qmin 2.500 kg/s. The results of analysis by the vertex angle and velocity distribution are as follows. A sump pump with an Ext E-type AVD was accepted at a high water level. However, further studies are needed for a low water level using the Ext E-type AVD as a base.

This paper performed a numerical study of an air-liquid ejector. An ejector is a fluid-transportation device that spouts high-pressure fluid from driving pipes using the kinetic energy of the spouted fluid and increases the pressure through the exchange of momentum with the surrounding gases of the lower pressure. The air-liquid ejector was investigated through steady three-dimensional multiphase CFD analysis using commercial software ANSYS-CFX 14.0. Water as the primary fluid is driven through the driving nozzle and air is ejected as the second gas instead of ozone in real applications. The difference in performance according to the shape of the diffuser of the ejector was examined. The results provide deep insight into the influence of various factors on the performance of the air-liquid ejector. The proposed numerical model will be very helpful for further design optimization of the air-liquid ejectors.

This paper presents the finite element method results for HSS(Hollow Square Section) steel columns strengthened with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Plastic(CFRP) sheets. 6 specimens were fabricated and the specimen groups were non-compact short columns, slender short columns, and non-compact long columns. Test parameter was the number of CFRP ply. The finite element analysis was performed by using ANSYS Workbench V.14.0 and the results of FEM were compared with those of Test for failure mode, load-displacement curve, maximum load, and initial stiffness. The comparisons between experimental observations and computed results show that the analyses provided good correlation to actual behavior. Finally, the buckling stress were calculated according to the AISC cold-formed structure provision and the retrofitting effect were verified for each section type.

This paper presents the broadband printed sleeve-monopole antenna implementing the sleeve monopole structure in the form of PCB. In the proposed antenna, the antenna performance was improved by the diameter variation of the radiator, the length variation of the sleeve, and the variation of the diameter of the sleeve conductor. HFSS simulator of ANSYS corp. was used in order to confirm the antenna parameter characteristic. According to the simulation results, the VSWR was less than 2 for the range of 2.12GHz~3.18GHz. The frequency bandwidth is 1.08GHz. The frequency range of the actual fabricated antenna was 2.0GHz~3.55GHz, the frequency bandwidth is 1.55GHz. The maximum gain was 1.64dBi. The proposed antenna was $56{\times}5{\times}1.6mm$ in size. The utilization possibility of the broadband printed sleeve-monopole antenna could be confirmed according to compare and analyze the simulation and measurement data.

Shell-tube heat exchanger is widely applied in industrial field by easily manufacturing as to various size and flow patterns. In this study, by changing baffle's cut direction, tilt angle and rotational angle as well as by using SST (Shear Stress Transport) $k-{\omega}$ turbulence model in ANSYS FLUENT v.14, the heat transfer rate and pressure drop characteristics of inner shell will be analyzed to improve heat transfer ability. As a result of analysis, heat transfer performance according to cut direction of baffle has been improved with vertical model B and angle $45^{\circ}$ model C than horizontal model A. In addition, the tilt $10^{\circ}$ of the baffle and rotational angle $0^{\circ}-90^{\circ}-180^{\circ}-270^{\circ}$ of model D showed better result in heat transfer rate and pressure drop.

In this article, a 20 kHz Titanium (Ti) ultrasonic waveguide system for a nano-surface reformation process was designed and fabricated. First, finite element analysis using ANSYS software was performed to find the optimal dimensions. The obtained anti-resonance frequency for the Ti transducer with the piezoelectric device was 20.0 kHz, which value agreed well with the experiment result of 20.1 kHz (0.5% error). To test the system, chromium molybdenum steel (SCM) 435 was chosen as a test-piece. The result proved that the reformed depth was $36{\mu}m$. In addition, hardness was measured before and after the process. The value was changed from 14 HRC to 21 HRC, which is 50% increasing rate. Finally, the friction coefficient test result showed that the surface coefficient was reduced from 0.14 to 0.10 (28.6% reduction). Based on the results, the Ti ultrasonic equipment is regarded as a useful device for nano-scale surface reformation.
