When a secondary gaseous flow is injected vertically into a supersonic flow through circular nozzle, a complicated structure of flow field is produced around the injection area. The interaction between the two streams produces a strong bow shock wane on the upstream side of the side-jet. The results show that bow shock wave and turbulent boundary layer interaction induces the boundary layer separation in front of the side-jet. This study is to analyze the structure of flow fields and distribution of surface pressure on the flat plate according to total pressure ratio using a supersonic cold-flow system and also to study the control force of affected side-jet. The nozzle of main flow was designed to have Mach 2.88 at the exit. The injector has a sonic nozzle with 4mm diameter at the exit of the side-jet. In experiments, The oil flow visualization using a silicone oil and ink was conducted in order to analyze the structure of flow fields around the side-jet. The flow fields are visualized using the schlieren method. In this study, a computational fluid dynamic solution is also compared with experimental results.

Low Reynolds number, dilute, and surfactant-free bubble suspensions are prepared by mechanical mixing after introducing carbon dioxide bubbles into a Newtonian liquid, polyol. The apparent shear viscosity is measured with a wide-gap parallel plate rheometer by imposing a simple shear flow of capillary numbers(Ca) of the order of $10^{-2}$ ~ $10^{-1}$ and for various gas volume fractions ($\phi$). Effects of capillary numbers and gas volume fractions on the viscosity of polyol foam are investigated. At high capillary number, viscosity of the suspension increases as the gas volume fraction increases, while at low capillary number, the viscosity decreases as the gas volume fraction increases. An empirical constitutive equation that is similar to the Frankel and Acrivos equation is proposed by fitting experimental data. A numerical simulation for deformation of a single bubble suspended in a Newtonian fluid is conducted by using a newly developed two-dimensional numerical code using a finite volume method (FVM). Although the bubble is treated by a circular cylinder in the two dimensional analysis, numerical results are in good agreement with experimental results.

The aim of this study is to develop a semi-analytical method to investigate fluid-structure coupling of concentric double shells with different lengths and elastic behaviours. Co-axial shells constitute a cylindrical circular container and a baffle submerged inside the stored fluid. The container shell is made of functionally graded materials with mechanical properties changing through its thickness continuously. The baffle made of steel is fixed along its top edge and submerged inside fluid such that its lower edge freely moves. The developed approach is verified using a commercial finite element computer code. Although the model is presented for a specific case in the present work, it can be generalized to investigate coupling of shell-plate structures via fluid. It is shown that the coupling between concentric shells occurs only when they vibrate in a same circumferential mode number, n. It is also revealed that the normalized vibration amplitude of the inner shell is about the same as that of the outer shell, for narrower radial gaps. Moreover, the natural frequencies of the fluid-coupled system gradually decrease and converge to the certain values as the gradient index increases.

The polariscope to measure :he stress in lens was made up quarter-wave plate polarizer and we analyzed two components of light's wave $E_1$ and $E_2$ following the steps. It is clear that the principal-stress difference ${\sigma}_1-{\sigma}_2$ can be determined in 2-D model if fringe order N is measured each point in sample moreover. the optical axes of sample coincide with the principal-stress directions. The birefringence acted to a light wave and a phase retardation were in proportioned to the principal-stressed difference (${\sigma}_1-{\sigma}_2$) and the intensity of final light wave was proportioned to $sin^2({\Delta}/2)$, when ${\Delta}/2=n^{\pi}$ (n=0, 1, 2, ...) and the extinction occurs. As a experimental result, the extinction band shifted owing to a magnitude of lens' external stress.

In the study, the Acoustic transducer of a thin circular disc-type with PZT/Metal was manufactured. The 'tape casting method' was introduced to prepare the thin disc-type of piezoelectric ceramics. The acoustic characteristics of PZT/Metal acoustic transducer for piezoelectric buzzer and piezoelectric speaker etc. have been studied and analyzed. As a result, the sound pressure level (dB), in the range from -6dB to -14dB, increased with increasing the piezoelectric coeffeicient ($d_{31}$) of ceramics. The optimal conditions of the sound pressure characteristics of acoustic transducer were that the radius ratio(${\eta}$) of ceramics and metal plate is 0.7-0.8 and the thickness ratio(${\beta}$) is 1.0, and the value were -15~-165dB.

Considering a rigorously fluid-structure interaction, a method for an earthquake response analysis of a floating offshore structure subjected to vertical ground motion from a seaquake is developed. Mass, damping, stiffness, and hydrostatic stiffness matrices of the floating offshore structure are obtained from a finite-element model. The sea water is assumed to be a compressible, nonviscous, ideal fluid. Hydrodynamic pressure, which is applied to the structure, from the sea water is assessed using its finite elements and transmitting boundary. Considering the fluid-structure interaction, added mass and force from the hydrodynamic pressure is obtained, which will be combined with the numerical model for the structure. Hydrodynamic pressure in a free field subjected to vertical ground motion and due to harmonic vibration of a floating massless rigid circular plate are calculated and compared with analytical solutions for verification. Using the developed method, the earthquake responses of a floating offshore structure subjected to a vertical ground motion from the seaquake is obtained. It is concluded that the earthquake responses of a floating offshore structure to vertical ground motion is severely influenced by the compressibility of sea water.

Recently, the study on the vibration analysis of machinery is greatly important and ESPI is widely used because of its many attractive features. Firstly, ESPI can be used to measure the vibration mode shape and the phase in real-time. Secondly, the conventional measuring methode, such as accelerometers, take much time to measure the whole field of object, but ESPI needs shorter time than other methods. Because ESPI is a field-inspection method. Thirdly, ESPI is a non-contact measuring system. ESPI does not have influence on the specimen. Beyond these features, there are several advantages in ESPI system. In this paper, the Stroboscopic ESPI system is described for measurement of a vibration mode shape. The Stroboscopic ESPI system had been used to visualize the vibration mode shape, in which EO(Electro-Optic)modulator was used to chop CW(Continuous Wavefront)laser. But it was not easy to control EO modulator and quantified the vibration amplitude and the phase of circular metal plate. At first, we found resonant frequency of the specimen by using time-averaged ESPI method. Nextly, the amplitudes of specimen were quantified by using Stroboscopic ESPI and we compare the results which were obtained in several chopping ratio.

Dynamic compaction has evolved as an acceptable method of site improvement by treating poor soils in situ. The method is often an economical alternative for utilizing shallow foundations and preparing subgrades for construction when compared with conventional solutions. In general, the installation purpose of dynamic compaction are to increase bearing capacity and decrease differential settlement within a specified depth of improvement. This method involves the s systematically dropping large weights onto the ground surface to compact the underlying ground. The weights used on dynamic compaction projects have been typically constructed of steel plates, sand or concrete filled steel shells, and reinforced concrete. Typically, weights range from 5-20 ton and base configurations are, circular or octagonal. In this study, the effective depth of improvement is evaluated based on the numerical analysis code, the dynamic analysis of FLAC-3D program, in order to analyze the influence parameters ; ground conditions, maximum applied load and the area of compaction plate.

A hybrid modelling technique of a soil-structure system on viscoelastic soil medium is studied in this paper. The hybrid model consists of a near-field and a far-field with their common interface passing through the soil region at some distance from the base of the structure. It makes use of frequency-dependent impedances so as to represent the semi-infinite far-field. The far-field impedances are formulate including the radiation damping characteristics as well as the viscoelastic properties of the soil medium. The verification of the method has been carried out using a rigid circular plate on a viscoelastic half-space. The impedances obtained by the method are compared with the theoretical values. Example analyses have been performed for a tall chimney and the results have been compared with those obtained by other methods which are frequently used.

Based on the application of te theory of conjugate approximations and the Loubignac's iterative method in a local region, a method to improve the stress filed in a displacement-formulated finite element solution has been proposed. The validity of the proposed method has been tested through two examples : a thick cylinder under internal pressure loading and an infinite plate with a central circular hole subjected to uniaxial tension. As a result of analysis of the examples, it was found that the stress field obtained for the local region model by the proposed method approximates well for the whole domain model. In addition, it was found that because of a significant decrease in the computing time to obtain the improved stress field, the proposed method is efficient and useful for the detailed stress analysis in local regions.
