In this paper we propose an axially distributed image-sensing method with a wide-angle lens to capture the wide-area scene of 3D objects. A lot of parallax information can be collected by translating the wide-angle camera along the optical axis. The recorded wide-area elemental images are calibrated using compensation of radial distortion. With these images we generate volumetric slice images using a computational reconstruction algorithm based on ray back-projection. To show the feasibility of the proposed method, we performed optical experiments for visualization of a partially occluded 3D object.

To prevent problems caused by welding deformation, preparation in the design stage is necessary. Countermeasures in the design stage is also the most cost-effective method. In this study, to give designers information on the welding deformation, a system to visualize the welding deformation is developed. The model to visualize the deformation is the stiffened plate common in steel structures. To increase computational efficiency, theoretical solutions to calculate the deformation of plate and stiffener are used instead of numerical analysis. Also, to secure accuracy, experiments to estimate bending moment causing welding deformations are performed. A computer program written with Visual C++ is developed for interactive data input, calculation of welding deformation and display of deformed shape. Designers can change the design in the early stage after checking the deformed shape by this system.

The flow patterns around multi-circular cylinders are studies, in order to obtain a global view on the structure of wave control and circulation of sea flow in coastal region. The flow force depends upon the vortex shedding exerted on the structure, especially how the vortex shedding affects the erosion when the structure sets on the sand bottom. Therefore, it is necessary that the flow pattern be hocked. In order to simulate the flow around multi-circular cylinders, the CFX and FLUENT of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program were used and compared with the experimental results of the flow visualization installation. The phenomena of flow around the multi-cylinders will be applied to fundamental data for predicting the flow force acting against the structure, erosion and sedimentation around cylinders in arrangement.

Numerical and visualization procedures are used in a finite difference grid to analyze and better understand the heat transfer in the MEMS based air micro-jet array (MIA) impingement cooling device. The Navier-Stokes (NS) equations with incompressible flow are solved using an implicit procedure. The temperature contour and velocity vector visualization diagrams are used for illustration. The computed temperature distribution at the bottom of the MIA is in good agreement with the experimental measurement data. The parameters are investigated to improve the efficiency of heat transfer in the MIA. The optimum configuration of the MIA is suggested. The present modeling explains the flow phenomenon and yields valuable information to understand the flow and heat transfer in MIA.

In this study, the detection of rubber o-ring defects was carried out using k-fold cross validation and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. The data process was carried out in 3 steps. First, we proceeded with a frame alignment to eliminate unnecessary regions in the learning and secondly, we applied gray-scale changes for computational reduction. Finally, data processing was carried out using image augmentation to prevent data overfitting. After processing data, SVM algorithm was used to obtain normal and defect detection accuracy. In addition, we applied the SVM algorithm through the k-fold cross validation method to compare the classification accuracy. As a result, we obtain results that show better performance by applying the k-fold cross validation method.

The rapid increase in the usage of energy in the fast-changing industries has led to resource depletion and environmental conflicts. Many types of research are available on heat exchangers that undergo simple energy conversion processes. The impingement rods discussed in this study improves the durability of the heat exchanger and ensure the stability of the operation. However, it is uncertain about selecting the installation location of the impingement rods. The commercially available CFD code, ANSYS CFX, is used for the impingement rods installation.

A comparison study between computational-fluid-dynamics simulation and wind tunnel test for a megawatt-class wind turbine is conducted. For the study, flow-field in wake, basic aerodynamic performance, and effect of the yaw error for a 1/86 scaled-down model of the NREL offshore 5 MW wind turbine are numerically calculated using commercial software "FloEFD" with $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model. The computed results are compared to the wind tunnel test performed by the constant-velocity mode for the model. It is shown that discrepancy are found between the two results at lower tip-speed ratio and higher yaw angle, however, the velocity-defection distribution in the wake, the torque coefficient at moderated and high tip-speed ratios are in good agreement with the wind tunnel test.

In this study, we investigate the non-reacting and reacting performance of single nozzle for post H class gas turbine by using commercial CFD tool, CONVERGE, based on adaptive mesh refinement. By varying swirl number and mixing length of base nozzle design. Through the numerical analysis, basic phenomena can be well described with respect to fuel concentration for non-reacting flow, temperature distribution, velocity vector and combustion outlet temperature distribution for reacting flow. However, there are rooms for improvements in model accuracy by comparing test results. Comparison between numerical analysis are planning for further study.

We conduct numerical simulations of the interaction of a deformable structure with two-phase compressible flow. The finite volume method (FVM) is used to simulate fluid phenomena including a shock wave, a gas bubble, and the deformation of free surface. The deformation of a floating structure is computed with the finite element method (FEM). The compressible two-phase volume of fluid (VOF) method is used for the generation and development of a cavitation bubble, and the immersed boundary method (IBM) is used to impose the effect of the structure on the fluid domain. The result of the simulation shows the generation of a shock wave, and the expansion of the bubble. Also, the deformation of the structure due to the hydrodynamic loading by the explosion is identified.

Oral cancer surgery changes the morphologic characteristics of the human upper airway. These changes can affect the flow patterns. In this study, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations with transient solver were performed to numerically investigate the air flows in the human upper airways depending oral cancer surgery. 3D reconstructed models were obtained from 2D CT images of one patient. For the boundary condition, the realistic breathing cycle of human was applied. The hydraulic diameters of cross-sections for post-surgical model are changed greatly along streamwise direction, so these variations can cause higher wall shear stress and flow disturbance compared to pre-surgical model. The recirculation flows observed in the protruding region result in the relatively large pressure drop. These results can be helpful to understand the flow variations after resection surgery of oral cancer.
