  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the drag and lift characteristics of the cavitator of a supercavitating underwater vehicle and the pressure loss due to water intake. These investigations were performed by changing the diameter, velocity, radius of curvature of the intake, and angle of attack of the cavitator. With increasing ratio of the intake diameter to the cavitator diameter ratio($d/D_1$), the drag coefficient and the pressure loss coefficient of the water intake decreased. The greater the increase in the ratio of the intake velocity-to-free stream velocity ratio(S), the smaller was the decrease in the drag coefficient and the lift coefficient. When the intake had a radius of curvature(c), the pressure loss coefficient decreased. On the contrary, the effect of the radius of curvature on the drag coefficient was imperceptible. For angles of attack (${\alpha}$) of the caviatator in the range of $0^{\circ}$ to $10^{\circ}$, the drag coefficient and the pressure loss coefficient changed slightly, whereas the lift coefficient increased linearly with increasing angle of attack.

  • The main objective of this paper is to classify properties of the locational environment for each debris type by calculating likelihood ratio based on the correlation between the distributions for each type of debris landform. A total of 8 thematic maps, like as elevation, slope, aspect, curvature, topographic wetness index (TWI), soil drainage, geology, and landcover including with GIS spatial information generally used in this type of debris landform analysis. The results of this study showed that the block stream had a high likelihood ratio compared to talus in areas with relatively high elevation; and concerning slope, the block stream had a high likelihood ratio in a relatively low region than talus. Concerning aspect, a clear correlation could not be analyzed for each debristype, and concerning curvature, the block stream displayed a developed slope on the more concave valley than the talus. Analysis concerning TWI, the block stream displayed a higher likelihood ratio in wider sections than talus, and concerning soil drainage, the talus and block stream both displayed a high likelihood ratio in regions with well-drained soil. The talus displayed a high likelihood ratio in the order of metamorphic rocks, sedimentary rocks, and granite, while the block stream displayed a high likelihood ratio in the order of volcanic rocks, granite, and sedimentary rocks. In addition, concerning landcover, the likelihood ratio had the most concentrated distributed compared to natural bare land only concerning talus. Based on the likelihood ratio result, it can be used as basic data for extracting the possible areas of distribution for each debris type through the GIS spatial integration method.

  • Pressure drop at a helical square duct orifice is numerically evaluated. The orifice is installed at the entrance of a once-through steam generator tube to suppress flow instabilities. The calculated results are compared with the available experimental correlations, and showed good agreement. Effects of curvature ratio and characteristics of the secondary flow with Reynolds number are reported. Through the numerical simulations, pressure drop mechanisms were well understood inside the compact and complicated orifice geometry.

  • In the prestressed concrete structures, the effective prestressing force of tendon is basically most important item for structural safety and serviceability. The frictional loss is one of the major items for determinating the effective prestressing force and depend on the construction accuracy of the structures. In this thesis, it will be analyzed and found through measured hydraulic jack pressure, tendon elongation and prestressing control system that the tendancy of apparent curvature friction coefficient, the ratio of jacking force and required prestressing force, the ratio of initial jacking force and required prestressing force and compatibility of specified friction loss coefficient. The specified control limit for curvature friction coefficient of prestressing control system is about 0.25 and wobble friction coefficient 0.005. Thus, the control limit should be modified according to changed vale of friction coefficient.

  • The bending stress formula that taking into account the transverse deformation is developed for plane-curved, untwisted isotropic beams subjected to loadings that result in deformations in the plane of curvature. In order to account the transverse Poisson contraction effect, a new constitutive relation between force resultants, moment resultants, mid-plane strains and deformed curvatures for a curved plate is derived in a $6{\times}6$ matrix form. This constitutive relation will provide the fundamental basis to the analyses of curved structures composing of isotropic or anisotropic materials. Then, the bending stress formula of a curved isotropic beam can be deduced from this newly developed curved plate theory. The stress predictions by the present analysis are compared to those by the analysis that neglected the Poisson contraction effect. The results show that the Poisson effect becomes more significant as the Poisson ratio and the curvature are getting larger.

  • Disk grinding was often applied to deburring process in order to enhance the final product quality. Inherent chamfering capability of the flexible disk grinding process in the early stage was analyzed with respect to various process parameters including workpiece length, wheel speed, depth of cut and feed. Initial chamfered edge defined as arc zone was characterized with local radius of curvature. Averaged radius and arc zone ratio was well evaluated using neural network system. Additional neural network analysis adding workpiece length showed enhance performance in predicting arc zone ratio and curvature radius with reduced error rate. A process condition design parameter was estimated using remaining input and output parameters with the prediction error rate lower than 2.0% depending on the relevant input parameter combination and neural network structure composition.

  • Membrane structures, a kind of lightweight soft structural system, are used for spatial structures. The design procedure of membrane structures are needed to do shape finding, stress-deformation analysis and cutting pattern generation, because the material property has strong axial stiffness, but little bending stiffness. The problem of cutting pattern is highly varied in their size, curvature and material stiffness. So, the approximation inherent in cooing pattern generation methods is quite different. Therefore the ordinary computer software of structural analysis & design is not suitable for membrane structures. In this study, we develop the program for cutting pattern generation using geodesic line, and investigate the result of example's cutting pattern in detail.

  • In this article, we find the necessary and sufficient condition for a proper biharmonic Frenet curve in the Lorentzian Sasakian space forms 𝓜31(H) except the case constant curvature -1. Next, we find that for a slant curve in a 3-dimensional Sasakian Lorentzian manifold, its ratio of "geodesic curvature" and "geodesic torsion -1" is a constant. We show that a proper biharmonic Frenet curve is a slant pseudo-helix with 𝜅2 - 𝜏2 = -1 + 𝜀1(H + 1)𝜂(B)2 in the Lorentzian Sasakian space forms x1D4DC31(H) except the case constant curvature -1. As example, we classify proper biharmonic Frenet curves in 3-dimensional Lorentzian Heisenberg space, that is a slant pseudo-helix.

  • The effect of secondary flow on both methane/air and propane/air premixed flame was investigated experimentally. By changing the radius of curvature, various flame behavior was observed. In the V-bend nozzles, flame surface is deformed from axisymmetry. As the exit velocity increased, flame lifted off partially. When the radius of curvature of the V-bend increased, the region where premixed flame is entirely on the rim increased. Since the axial velocity field is changed due to the secondary flow effect, comparison of V-bend and straight tube with the same diameter shows larger V-bend nozzle exit velocity for both flash back and flame blowout. The flame characteristics are mapped with a equivalence ratio, a velocity, and a nozzle radius of curvature. To identify physical reasoning on the flame surface deformation, numerical calculations are conducted. OH radical distributions in flames are visualized by PLIF technique.
