The paper describes the development of a decomposition based multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) method that coordinates each of disciplinary subspace optimization (DSO). A multidisciplinary design system considered in the present study is decomposed into a number of subspaces based on their own design objective and constraints associated with engineering discipline. The coupled relations among subspaces are identified by interdisciplinary design variables. Each of subsystem level optimization, that is DSO would be performed in parallel, and the system level coordination is determined by the first order optimal sensitivities of subspace objective functions with respect to interdisciplinary design variables. The central of the present work resides on the formulation of system level coordination strategy and its capability in decomposition based MDO. A fluid-structure coupled design problem is explored as a test-bed to support the proposed MDO method.

The optimal structure of the Tonpilz transducer was designed. First, the FE model of the transducer was constructed, that included all the details of the transducer which used practical environment. The validity of the FE model was verified through the impedance analysis of the transducer. Second, the resonance frequency, the sound pressure, the bandwidth, and the impulsive shock pressure of the transducer in relation to its structural variables were analyzed. Third, the design method of $2^n$ experiments was employed to reduce the number of analysis cases, and through statistical multiple regression analysis of the results, the functional forms of the transducer performances that could consider the cross-coupled effects of the structural variables were derived. Based on the all results, the optimal geometry of the Tonpilz transducer that had the highest sound pressure level at the desired working environment was determined through the optimization with the SQP-PD method of a target function composed of the transducer performance. Furthermore, for the convenience of a user, the automatic process program making the optimal structure of the acoustic transducer automatically at a given target and a desired working environment was made. The developed method can reflect all the cross-coupled effects of multiple structural variables, and can be extended to the design of general acoustic transducers.

The performances of a coupled reactor in which a steam reformer and a catalytic combustor were mounted simultaneously had been investigated and compared. The combustible offgas exhausted from the anode of SOFC and MCFC were utilized as heat sources for the endothermic steam methane reforming. The catalytic combustion was used in order to burn the combustible offgas. Thermal energy released by the catalytic combustion is directly transferred to the reformer surrounding the combustor. The various operational conditions such as fuel utilization rate, steam to carbon ratio, amount of catalysts, fuel cell loads were changed. And operating variables were comprehensively identified by sensitivity analysis. The fundamental results from this experimental study show the potential abilities of the coupled reactor. Therefore the results will be of help to design and manufacture the more better coupled reactor in the future.

방대한 저장량으로 차세대 에너지원으로 평가받는 메탄가스 하이드레이트는 생산과정에서 유발될 수 있는 문제를 최소화하고 최적의 생산조건을 선정하기 위한 하이드레이트 포함한 다공질 재료의 THM 현상에 대한 프로그램의 개발이 절실하다. 기존의 해석 프로그램들은 국제공동연구를 통하여 프로그램들간의 상호 비교검증을 진행하고 있으나, 예측값의 불일치와 수렴성에 문제가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문에서는 다공질 재료내 메탄 하이드레이트의 해리 현상을 해석할 수 있는 fully coupled THM 유한요소 프로그램을 개발하였다. Methane hydrate, soil, water, 및 methane gas의 질량보존의 법칙, 에너지 보존의 법칙, 그리고 힘평형 방정식으로부터 지배방정식을 유도하였다. 다양한 주변수들의 조합을 통하여 주변수를 변위, 가스 포화도, 유체압, 온도, 하이드레이트 포화도로 선택하였으며, 상변화 전영역에서 해석이 가능하도록 하였다. 하이드레이트의 해리를 예측하는 모델은 kinetic model을 이용하였다. 개발된 THM 유한요소 프로그램을 이용하여 메탄가스 생산에 관한 Masuda의 실내 모형실험 결과와 비교적 분석을 수행하였으며, 해의 수렴성과 안정성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in physical-biological ocean-modeling systems by communities in the fields of science and business. In this paper, we present preliminary results from a coupled physical-biological model for the Northwestern Pacific marginal seas. The ocean circulation component is an implementation of the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), and the lower trophic level ecosystem component is a Nutrient-Phytoplankton-Zooplankton-Detritus (NPZD) model. The ROMS-NPZD coupled system, with a 25 km resolution, is forced by climatological atmospheric data and predicts the physical variables and concentrations of nitrate, phytoplankton, zooplankton, and detritus. Model results are compared with remote-sensed sea surface temperature and chlorophyll, and with climatological sea surface salinity and nitrate. Our model adequately reproduces the observed spatial distribution and seasonal variability of nitrate and chlorophyll concentrations as well as physical variables, showing a high correlation in the East Sea (ES) and Kuroshio/Oyashio Extension (KOE) region but relatively low correlation in the Yellow Sea (YS) and East China Sea (ECS). Although some deficiencies were found in the biological components, such as the over/underestimation of the intensity of phytoplankton blooms in the ES and KOE/the YS and ECS, our system demonstrates the capability of the model to capture and record dominant seasonal variability in physical-biological processes and this holds out the promise of coming to a better understanding of such processes and making better predictions .

복합 병렬 전단벽(Coupled shear walls)은 커플링 보와 철근콘크리트 벽체로 구성되어 바람이나 지진 등의 횡하중으로부터 유발된 전도모멘트의 상당 부분을 철골 연결보의 커플링 작용에 의하여 골조 작용(Frame action)을 의하여 횡력에 효율적으로 저항하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 접합부 상세에 따른 복합병렬 전단벽의 접합부 강도에 대한 규준식을 정립하기 위한 선행연구로서 병렬 전단벽 접합부에서 커플링 보의 매립길이 및 벽체 두께를 주변수로 실험적 연구를 수행하여 접합부 상세에 따른 복합 병렬 전단벽 시스템의 거동특성을 규명하고자 하였다. 본 실험결과, 실험체의 거동 및 내력은 매립길이 및 접합부 상세에 많은 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며 향후 설계시 이에 대한 영향을 반영해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This study presents some results of a preliminary study for the coupled precipitation and river flow prediction system. The model system in based on three numerical models, Mesoscale Atmospheric Simulation model for generating atmospheric variables. Soil-Plant-Snow model for computing interactions within soil-canopy-snow system as well as the energy and water exchange between the atmosphere and underlying surfaces, and TOPMODEL for simulating stream flow, subsurface flow, and water tabled depth in an watershed. The selected study area is the 2,703 $\alpha_4$ $\km_2$ Soyang River basin with outlet at Soyang dam site. In addition to providing the results of rainfall and stream flow predictions, some results of DEM and GIS application are presented. It is obvious that the accurate river flow predictions are highly dependant on the accurate predictation predictions.

This paper presents the results of the application of a computational fluid dynamics algorithm for the simulation of plasma flows of arc-heated jet. The underlying physical model is based on the axisymmetric form of the conservation equations that are coupled with an arc model including Ohm heating, electromagnetic forces. The arc model given as a source term in fluid dynamic equations is determined by a solution of electric potential field governed by an elliptic partial differential equation. The governing equation of electric field is loosely coupled with fluid dynamic equations by an electric conductivity that is a function of state variables. However, the electric fields and flow fields cannot be solved In fully coupled manner, but should be solved iteratively due to the different characteristics of governing equations. With this solution approach, several applications of arc flow analysis will be presented including Arc Thruster and Circuit Breaker.
