In order to manufacture copper ultra fine wire used for bonding wire in integrated circuit package, continuous casting process, which can produce high purity copper rod with small cross section, and wiredrawing process have to be optimized to prevent wire brakeage during entire manufacturing process of fine wire. The optimum condition for producing copper rod with mirror surface has to established by investigation of the effects of several parameters such as withdrawal speed, superheat and rod diameter on grain morphology of the cast rod and on its drawing characteristics to fine wire. The purpose of this study is to propose the optimized process parameters in continuous casting process in order to produce cast rod without internal defects, and to predict microstructure orientation suitable for wire drawing process.

In this paper, a novel and efficient discretization method of a continuous-time Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy system is proposed. Because of the highly complex and nonlinear interaction among the subsystems, it is very difficult to develop the discretized version of continuous-tine TS fuzzy system. More precisely, to obtain the suitable discretized version, it is necessary to solve two main problems: to discretize global state equations of the continuous-tine TS fuzzy system and to hold the polytopic structure after the discretization. This paper will show the solution to above two problems. Main key idea is to transforme the sampling period into the intersampling period. Finally, To show the feasibility and the validity of the proposed method, a computer simulation is provided.

The continuous casting is primarily a heat-extraction process in which the heat transfer at various cooling zones profoundly influences quality of products. So development of numerical model is necessarily needed for more specific and clear investigations upon heat transfer mechanism at mold and secondary cooling zones. In this study, heat transfer coefficients which show the characteristic of heat transfer mechanism in mold are calculated for more exact analysis with temperature measured in bloom mold using optimal algorithm, and finally the validity of cooling conditions at secondary cooling zone actually used at field fur 30 Ton bloom type continuous casting of 0.187%C is investigated. From the results of solidification analysis, the characteristic of bloom mold shows a similar tendency with that of previous studies, and optimized cooling conditions for 0.187%C are presented.

This paper presents a system-of-systems (SoS) approach to the formal modeling of a cyber-physical system (CPS) for simulation-based analysis. The approach is based on a convergence technology for modeling and simulation of a highly complex system in which SoS modeling methodology, hybrid systems modeling theory, and simulation interoperation technology are merged. The methodology maps each constituent system of a CPS to a disparate model of either continuous or discrete types. The theory employs two formalisms for modeling of the two model types with formal specification of interfaces between them. Finally, the technology adapts a simulation bus called DEVS BUS whose protocol synchronizes time and exchange messages between subsystems simulation. Benefits of the approach include reusability of simulation models and environments, and simulation-based analysis of subsystems of a CPS in an inter-relational manner.

The recent trends in numerical simulation of various spray phenomena are reviewed in this article. Major subtopics are atomization/breakup, collision/coalescence, wall collision, interfacial transfer, droplet dispersion, two-phase injection and spray combustion. Each submodel has been under continuous refinement and validation against more extensive data base by advanced laser diagnostic techniques. Most uncertainty in current spray simulations come from these physical submodels, not from excessive computational constraints.

The flow fields in Gas Bubble Driven Circulation Systems were numerically analyzed. In various gas flow rate and bubble size, the flow characteristics were predicted. Eulerian-Eulerian approach was used for the formulation of both the continuous and dispersed phases. The modification of the general purpose computer program PHOENICS code was employed to predict the mean flow fields, turbulent characteristics, gas dispersion, volume fraction. The predicted shows very satisfactory agreement with experimental results for all regions of ladle. The results are of interest in the design and operation of wide variety of material processing.

Recent research in MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) and wireless communication has enabled tracking of continuous objects, including fires, nuclear explosions and bio-chemical material diffusions. This paper proposes an energy-efficient scheme that detects and tracks different dynamic shapes of a continuous object (i.e., the inner and outer boundaries of a continuous object). EBCO (Efficient Boundary detection and tracking of Continuous Objects in WSNs) exploits the sensing capabilities of sensor nodes by automatically adjusting the sensing range to be either a boundary sensor node or not, instead of communicating to its neighboring sensor nodes because radio communication consumes more energy than adjusting the sensing range. The proposed scheme not only increases the tracking accuracy by choosing the bordering boundary sensor nodes on the phenomenon edge, but it also minimizes the power consumption by having little communication among sensor nodes. The simulation result shows that our proposed scheme minimizes the energy consumption and achieves more precise tracking results than existing approaches.

Applicability of 8 day interval flow data for the calibration of hydrologic model was evaluated using Hydrological Simulation Program-Fortran (HSPF) at Kyungan watershed. The 8 day interval flow monitored by Ministry of Environment located at upstream was calibrated and periodically validated during 2004-2008. And continuous daily flow monitored by Ministry of Construction & Transportation (MOCT) and located at the mouth was compared with daily simulated data during 2004-2007 as spatial validation. Automatic calibration tool which is Model-Independent Parameter Estimation & Uncertainty Analysis (PEST) was applied for HSPF calibration procedure. The model efficiencies for calibration and periodic validation were 0.63 and 0.88, and model performances were fair and very good, respectively, based on criteria of calibration tolerances. Continuous daily stream flow at the mouth of Kyungan watershed were good agreement with observed continuous daily stream flow with showing 0.63 NS value. The PEST program is very useful tool for HSPF hydrologic calibration using non-continuous daily stream flow as well as continuous daily stream flow. The 8 day interval flow data monitored by MOE could be used to calibrate hydrologic model if the continuous daily stream flow is unavailable.

This paper is to study the characteristics of axial force behavior that operates to the part of turnout when it makes the turnout and the continuous welded rail unifying. The study is to model by using the 50kgN rail No. 15 turnout used in the domestic national railway and the UIC60 rail No. 18 turnout used in the rapid transit railway as the finite elements for analyzing the axial force behavior of the turnout by the continuous welded rail. It is to analyze the characteristics of behavior according to the change of creep resistance, ballast resistance and the change of parameter valuables of heel joint by the axial force simulation in making the continuous welded rail and then, it is to present the result. As the result of research on the parameter valuables through the analysis, it shows that the maximum axial force of turnout by the continuous welded rail are largely subordinated to the maximum resistance of heel joint and the fitting devices than the ballast resistance. Also it shows that the maximum axial force produced changes a lot according to the characteristics of creep resistance of the fitting part and the ballast resistance.

In this paper, the vibration characteristics of a linear stepping motor(LSM) are analyzed using the ACSL. A magnetic equivalent circuit is based on the structure of the LSM, and then the electric equivalent circuit of the LSM is derived by solving equations for the magnetic equivalent circuit. A normal force is calculated using finite element method(FEM). And the vibration characteristics(continuous vibration) of the LSM are simulated by the ACSL(Advanced Continuous Simulation language) with the voltage equations, the thrust equation, the normal force equation and the kinetic equation.
