The leisure boat industry has the potential to become a high-value-added industry in the future. Recently, a study on Korean high-speed leisure boats for fishing was conducted. This study suggests a product configuration model-based shipbuilding cost estimation method for determining the type of leisure boat suitable for mass production, as part of a research for productivity improvement. The suggested estimation method based on the analysis of the leisure boat process and generic YWBS can calculate quantitative and concrete data. By using this method, the cost of building the catamaran-type design ship can be reduced by 17 times, compared to that of the monohull-type mother ship. This implies that the final design of the Korean high-speed leisure boat for fishing will have a competitive price at the actual production stage.

PPWS, a large number of which a main cable of a suspension bridge consists of, must be precisely erected at a target location under construction considering the differences among design conditions. The absolute sag is measured for several PPWSs, which are reference strands and the relative sag is surveyed from them to other PPWSs, which are divided into several groups. And the adjustment of PPWS length is performed to erect it at target configuration. When PPWS is being under erection in a real bridge site, the procedures are as follows; evaluate sag sensitivities according to sag variation factors, calculate an adjustment length of PPWS corresponding to them and adjust a sag of PPWS by controlling the calculated amount of PPWS length. In this study, the differential-related equations of sag sensitivity were proposed for support movement of PPWS. Before site demonstration study of a series of them, we established a catenary model system and accomplished verification tests of them. From test results, the validation of them was done.

In this study, comparative work has been performed between two-columns and three-columns configurations for an extractive distillation process to produce highly purified ethanol with not less than 99.7 wt% using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and ethylene glycol (EG) as extracting agents. Optimal ethanol concentration at a concentrator top stream which minimized the total reboiler heat duties was determined for a three-columns configuration for two different solvents. For the thermodynamic model, NRTL liquid activity coefficient model was used and PRO/II with PROVISION 9.4 at Schneider electric company was utilized. DMSO was proved to be a better solvent than EG and three-columns configuration is better than two- columns configuration in the total utility consumptions since some of the liquid water contained in the feed stream was removed at a concentrator bottom liquid stream.

Deformation, stress and fatigue life due to the configuration of tie rod end are investigated in this study. Tie rod ends with the total three kinds of configurations are modelled with three dimensions through CATIA program and the simulation analysis is carried out with the ANSYS finite element analysis program. There are the models of A, B and C by the configuration of the rod end. As this study result, maximum deformation, maximum equivalent stress and maximum fatigue life of A type model are shown to be 0.0614mm, 160.27MPa and 336,930cycles respectively. And maximum deformation, maximum equivalent stress and maximum fatigue life of B type model are shown to be 0.0648mm, 90.889MPa and 1,171,000cycles respectively. Maximum deformation, maximum equivalent stree and maximum fatigue life of C type model are also shown to be 0.0402mm, 84.794MPa and 20,000,000cycles respectively. The durability of the models of tie rod ends through the values of this result could be estimated and the data for the design and development of more improved tie rod end could be secured. And it is possible to be grafted onto the convergence technique at design and be shown as the esthetic sense.

A grid-based configuration of Land Surface Models (LSMs) coupled with a climate model can be advantageous in impact assessment of climate change for a large scale area. We assessed the applicability of Common Land Model (CoLM) to runoff and land surface temperature (LST) simulations at the domain that encompasses the Nakdong river basin. To establish a high resolution model configuration of a $1km{\times}1km$ grid size, both surface boundary condition and atmospheric inputs from the observed weather data in 2009 were adjusted to the same resolution. The Leaf Area Index (LAI) was collected from MODerate esolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and the downward short wave flux was produced by a nonstationary multi-site weather state model. Compared with the observed runoffs at the stations on Nakdong river, simulated runoffs properly responded to rainfall. The spatial features and the seasonal variations of the domain fairly well were captured in the simulated LSTs as well. The monthly and seasonal trend of LST were described well compared to the observations, however, the monthly averaged simulated LST exceeded the observed up to $2^{\circ}C$ at the 24 stations. From the results of our study, it is shown that high resolution LSMs can be used to evaluate not only quantity but also quality of water resources as it can capture the geographical features of the area of interest and its rainfall-runoff response.

Turbulent heat transfer over a fully-developed wavy channel is investigated by a turbulence model. The nonlinear k- f - f$_{ model of Park et at.[1] is slightly modified and their explicit algebraic heat flux model is employed. The Reynolds number is fixed at Re$_{b}$=6760 and the wave configuration is varied in the range of 0 $\leq$ $\alpha$/$\lambda$$\leq$0.15 and 0.25 $\leq$A/H$\leq$4.0. In order to verify model performances, a large eddy simulation is performed for the selected cases. The model performance is shown to be generally satisfactory. By using k- $\varepsilon$ - f$_{ model, the enhancement of heat transfer and the characteristics of turbulent flow in wavy wall are investigated. Finally, the influence of wavy configuration on heat transfer is scrutinized.

Characteristics of kerosine spray combustion were investigated at various swirl condition. PDPA(Phase Doppler Particle Analysis) was used to measure the droplet sizes and velocities. R-type(Platinum vs. Platinum-13%rhodium) thermocouple was used to measure the temperature of combustion flow field inside model combustor. A visualization of spray and flame was performed with still camera. As swirl number increases due to increase of swirl vane angle, the spray and the flame were developed to radial direction rapidly. When swirl number is small, the configuration of flame is cone type, but swirl number is large, the configuration of flame is cylindrical type due to enhanced mixing by the transport of swirl momentum.

In this study, the vibration of an electrostatically actuated micro cantilever beam is analyzed in which a viscoelastic layer covers a portion of the micro beam length. This proposed model is considered as the main element of mass and pollutant micro sensors. The nonlinear motion equation is extracted by means of Hamilton principle, considering nonlinear shortening effect for Euler-Bernoulli beam. The non-linear effects of electrostatic excitation, geometry and inertia have been taken into account. The viscoelastic model is assumed as Kelvin-Voigt model. The motion equation is discretized by Galerkin approach. The linear free vibration mode shapes of non-uniform micro beam i.e. the linear mode shape of the system by considering the geometric and inertia effects of viscoelastic layer, have been employed as comparison function in the process of the motion equation discretization. The discretized equation of motion is solved by the use of multiple scale method of perturbation theory and the results are compared with the results of numerical Runge-Kutta approach. The frequency response variations for different lengths and thicknesses of the viscoelastic layer have been founded. The results indicate that if a constant volume of viscoelastic layer is to be deposited on the micro beam for mass or gas sensor applications, then a modified configuration may be found by using the analysis of this paper.

Four different methods of reducing the heat transfer coefficients from experimental data under dehumidifying conditions are compared. The four methods consist of two different heat and mass transfer models and two different fin efficiency models. Data are obtained from two heat exchanger samples having plain fins or wave fins. Comparison of the data with the reduction methods revealed that the single potential heat and mass transfer model yielded the humidity independent heat transfer coefficients. Two different fin efficiency models - enthalpy model and humidity model - yielded approximately the same fin efficiencies and accordingly approximately the same heat transfer coefficients. The heat transfer coefficients under wet conditions were approximately the same as those of the dry conditions for the plain fin configuration. For the wave fin configuration, however, wet surface heat transfer coefficients were approximately 12% higher. The pressure drops of the wet surface were 10% to 45% larger than those of the dry surface.

In this paper, separated flow characteristics is studied using the RANS(Reynold-averaged Navier-Stokes) modeling. The analysis is performed for the NASA's hump configuration which is the combination of a flat plate and a hump. This configuration was used in NASA's flow control workshop and it was one of validation cases for RANS and LES simulations. The separation occurs at the 65% of model length where a slot is positioned for the flow control. No flow control case and steady suction case are studied using RANS modeling. The Spalart-Allmaras model and the SST(Shear Stress Transport) model are applied and their accuracy are compared. To correlate CFD analysis with experimental data, the optimal boundary condition was investigated and the effect of a cavity around the slot is studied for the no flow case.
