Aero-optic phenomena cause the image position displacement on an imaging plane of the airborne optical/IR systems. Particularly, the aero-optic boresight error(BSE) is important factor for homing, positioning and aiming applications of hypersonic flight interceptor missile. In this paper, an estimating method of aero-optic BSE for a hypersonic flight vehicle is studied. A ray tracing method and a transform method of refractive index fields from flow density fields are combined with computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method.

This paper presents development of an improved domain decomposition method for large scale structural problem that aims to provide high computational efficiency. In the previous researches, we developed the domain decomposition algorithm based on augmented Lagrangian formulation and proved numerical efficiency under both serial and parallel computing environment. In this paper, new computational analysis by the proposed domain decomposition method is performed. For this purpose, reduction in computational time achieved by the proposed algorithm is compared with that obtained by the dual-primal FETI method under serial computing condition. It is found that the proposed methods significantly accelerate the computational speed for a linear structural problem.

In this paper, the quaternion, the dual Euler, and the direction cosine methods are numerically compared using a non-aerodynamic 6 degree-of-freedom rigid model at all-attitude angles of an aircraft. The dual Euler method turns out to be superior to the others in the applications because it shows better numerical accuracy, stability, and robustness in integration step sizes. The dual Euler method is affordably less efficient than the quaternion method in terms of computational cost. Numerical accuracy and stability, which allow larger integration step sizes, are more critical in modern real-time applications than computational efficiency because of today's increased computational power. If the quaternion method is required because of constraints in computation time, then a suppression mechanism should be provided for algebraic constraint errors which will eventually add computational burden.

A numerical prediction method has been proposed to predict non-linear free surface oscillation in a three-dimensional container. The fluid motions are numerically predicted with Navier-Stokes equations discretized in a Lagrangian scheme with sufficient numerical accuracy. The profile of a free surface is precisely represented with three-dimensional body-fitted coordinates (BFC), which are regenerated in each computational step on the basis of the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) formulation. In order to confirm the reliability of the computational method, it was firstly applied to three-dimensional flows within complicated-shaped rigid boundaries, such as curved pipes and ducts. Than it was applied to benchmark computations related to free surface oscillations. Following these basic verifications, non-linear sloshings in a cylindrical tank and transitions from sloshing to swirling motions were numerically predicted. Throughout these computations, the applicability of the present computational method has been confirmed and some of the predicted free surface motions were visualized as sequential images and animations to understand their dynamic futures.

The incorporation of pozzolans to Portland cement pastes adds value in the development of new materials for the construction industry. This study presents a new computational method, complementary to the pozzolanic identification by compressive strength at 28 days method, for supporting the validation of pozzolanic mortars for non-structural purposes. An algorithm capable of classifying the pixels of micrographs of specimens fragments was developed. Therefore, comparative analyses were generated from fractional Gaussian representations in four intervals of the same amplitude that indicated the predispositions to form larger void indices (intervals 1 and 2). The results showed that the computational method indicators are in accordance with the physical and chemical indicators.

Most of the studies use model order reduction for low frequency (LF) response analysis due to their high computational efficiency. In LF response analysis, one of model order reduction, algebraic substructuring (AS) retains all LF modes when using the modal superposition. However, in mid-frequency (MF) response analysis, the LF modes make very little contribution and also increase the number of retained modes, which leads to loss of computational efficiency. Therefore, MF response analysis should consider low truncated modes to improve the computational efficiency. The current work is focused on improving the computational efficiency using a AS and a frequency sweep algorithm. Finite element simulation for a MEMS resonator array showed that the performance of the presented method is superior to a conventional method.

Documentation is a typical method that helps students to understand a program for implementation and execute error correction and maintenance cost-effectively. Guidelines for components that organize documentation should be provided to enable to express computational thinking and such components also should be linked to coding process. In this paper, we focused on the documentation format to guide elementary school students, who were beginners in computational thinking, to express computational thinking. The improvement in the expression of computational thinking was analyzed based on the documentation format applied to the class, and practical tips on the importance of components organizing the documentation format were proposed.

A new computational program, which is based on the CIP/CCUP(Constraint Interpolation Profile/CIP Combined Unified Procedure) method, has been developed to numerically analyse sloshing phenomena dealt as multiphase-flow problems. For the convection terms of Navier-Stokes equations, the RCIP(Rational function CIP) method was adopted and the THINC-WLIC(Tangent of Hyperbola for Interface Capturing-Weighted Line Interface Calculation) method was used to capture the air/water interface. To validate the present numerical method, two-dimensional dam-breaking and sloshing problems in a rectangular tank were solved by the developed method in a stationary Cartesian grid system. In the case of sloshing problems, simulations by using a improved MPS(Moving Particle Simulation) method, which is named as PNU-MPS(Pusan National University-MPS), were also carried out. The computational results are compared with those of experiments and most of the comparisons are reasonably good.
