  • This paper discusses two user-friendly reliability techniques that could be implemented easily using the ubiquitous EXCEL. The techniques are First-Order Reliability Method with non-Gaussian random variables expressed using Hermite polynomials and collocation-based stochastic response surface method. It is believed that ease of implementation would popularize use of reliability-based design in practice.

  • This paper aims to propose a computational technique for estimating the region of attraction (RoA) for autonomous nonlinear systems. To achieve this, the collocation method is applied to approximate the Lyapunov function by satisfying the modified Zubov's partial differential equation around asymptotically stable equilibrium points. This method is formulated for n-scalar differential equations with two classes of basis functions. In order to show the efficiency of the suggested approach, some numerical examples are solved. Moreover, the estimated regions of attraction are compared with two similar methods. In most cases, the proposed scheme can estimate the region of attraction more efficient than the other techniques.

  • 선점법에 대한 연구가 유한요소법처럼 범용화 되어 있지 않아 적용성과 유효성에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 범용적으로 사용된 유한요소법과 비교하여 비선형 진동문제에 대한 선점법의 적용성과 유효성을 확인한다. 또한, 선점법을 미분방정식 조건에 따라 내부법, 경계법, 혼합법으로 나누어 비선형 응답 곡선을 유한요소법 결과와 비교하여 동적 특성 문제의 선점법 적용성과 유효성을 확인한다.

  • We propose and analyze a spectral Jacobi-collocation approximation for fractional order integro-differential equations of Fredholm-Volterra type. The fractional derivative is described in the Caputo sense. We provide a rigorous error analysis for the collection method, which shows that the errors of the approximate solution decay exponentially in $L^{\infty}$ norm and weighted $L^2$-norm. The numerical examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.

  • The hydrodynamic stability equations for natural convection flows adjacent to a vertical isothermal surface in cold or warm water (Boussinesq or non-Boussinesq situation for density relation), constitute a two-point-boundary-value (eigenvalue) problem, which was solved numerically using the simple shooting and the orthogonal collocation method. This is the first instance in which these stability equations have been solved using a computer code COLSYS, that is based on the orthogonal collocation method, designed to solve accurately two-point-boundary-value problem. Use of the orthogonal collocation method significantly reduces the error propagation which occurs in solving the initial value problem and avoids the inaccuracy of superposition of asymptotic solutions using the conventional technique of simple shooting.

  • GPS (Global Positioning System)를 이용하여 위치를 결정하기 위해서는 4개 이상의 가시위성이 있어야 한다. 하지만 도심지역과 같은 환경에서는 이러한 조건을 만족하기 어려운 경우도 있다. 특히, 가시위성이 3개뿐인 경우 외부로부터 위치결정에 필요한 시계오차정보를 활용하는 측위기법이 대안으로 사용되기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 먼저 수신기 시계오차특성을 분석한 후 시계오차의 보간에 적합한 방법으로 LSC (Least-Squares Collocation)을 제안하였다. 실험을 위해 국내 상시관측소와 상시관측소 근처에 설치된 수신기로부터 수신된 GPS 데이터를 이용하였다. DGPS (Differential GPS)기법을 통해 먼저 시계오차를 계산했으며 효율적인 보간을 위해 구간을 나눈 후 보간하는 방법을 적용하였다. 시계오차의 계산이 불가능한 epoch에 대해 LSC 보간법을 적용함으로써 시계오차를 계산하였다. 실험결과를 분석하기 위해 원래 데이터로부터 계산된 시계오차와 보간된 시계오차와의 차이인 잔차를 계산하였다. 계산결과 잔차의 평균은 0.24m 그리고 표준편차는 0.49m로 충분한 정확도의 확보가 가능한 것으로 판단된다.

  • Recently much attention has been drawn to meshfree method since conventional methods such as FDM, FVM and FEM have suffered from difficulty with mesh generation for complex geometry and deformable bodies. In this paper, an upwind point collocation meshfree method developed by the authors is applied to two shock wave diffraction problems. One is the shock diffraction over a 90-degree corner and the other is the single Mach reflection on a ramp. The scheme showed stability and the results showed accuracy.

  • The Radial Point Interpolation Method (RPIM) has been proposed to overcome the difficulties associated with the use of the Radial Basis Functions (RBFs). The RPIM has the following properties: Simple implementation in terms of boundary conditions as in the Finite Element Method (FEM). A less expensive CPU time compared to other collocation meshless methods such as the Moving Least Square (MLS) collocation method. In this work, we propose an adaptive high-order numerical algorithm based on RPIM to simulate the thermoviscoplastic behavior of a material mixing observed in the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) process. The proposed adaptive meshfree RPIM algorithm adapts well to the geometric and physical data by choosing a good shape parameter with a good precision. Our numerical approach combines the RPIM and the Asymptotic Numerical Method (ANM). A numerical procedure is also proposed in this work to automatically determine an improved shape parameter for the RBFs. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is analyzed in comparison with an iterative algorithm.

  • Recently, satellite formation flying has been a topic of significant research interest in aerospace society because it provides potential benefits compared to a large spacecraft. Some techniques have been proposed to design optimal formation trajectories minimizing fuel consumption in the process of formation configuration or reconfiguration. In this study, a method is introduced to build fuel-optimal trajectories minimizing a cost function that combines the total fuel consumption of all satellites and assignment of fuel consumption rate for each satellite. This approach is based on collocation and nonlinear programming to solve constraints for collision avoidance and the final configuration. New constraints of nonlinear equality or inequality are derived for final configuration, and nonlinear inequality constraints are established for collision avoidance. The final configuration constraints are that three or more satellites should form a projected circular orbit and make an equilateral polygon in the horizontal plane. Example scenarios, including these constraints and the cost function, are simulated by the method to generate optimal trajectories for the formation configuration and reconfiguration of multiple satellites.
