  • The plate-type fuel assembly adopted in nuclear research reactor suffers from complicated effect induced by non-uniform irradiation, which might affect its stress conditions, mechanical behavior and thermal-hydraulic performance. A reliable numerical method is of great importance to reveal the complex evolution of mechanical deformation, flow redistribution and temperature field for the plate-type fuel assembly under non-uniform irradiation. This paper is the first part of a two-part study developing the numerical methodology for the thermal-fluid-structure coupling behaviors of plate-type fuel assembly under irradiation. In this paper, the thermal-fluid-structure coupling methodology has been developed for plate-type fuel assembly under non-uniform irradiation condition by exchanging thermal-hydraulic and mechanical deformation parameters between Finite Element Model (FEM) software and Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software with Mesh-based parallel Code Coupling Interface (MpCCI), which has been validated with experimental results. Based on the established methodology, the effects of non-uniform irradiation and fluid were discussed, which demonstrated that the maximum mechanical deformation with irradiation was dozens of times larger than that without irradiation and the hydraulic load on fuel plates due to differential pressure played a dominant role in the mechanical deformation.

  • Purpose - This study is to integrate organizational factors into UCD process. For this research purpose, we investigated the organizational factors which influence people behaviors in the context of user-centred design practice(UCP). And this study presents organizational culture, organizational learning and change management as the organizational factors. Especially, this study is to investigate how change management influences the relationship between the organizational culture/learning and UCD performance. Research design, data, and methodology - Using the survey methodology with a questionnaire, this study distributed the questionnaire to the experienced 112 practitioners of user-centred design practice in 52 Korean small and medium companies. The organizations differed in range and size from medium-scale, which is under 100 of employees, and to small-scale, which is from 100 to 500. Results - Organizational culture and organizational learning have positive effects on user-centred design practice performance as expected. And change management strengthens the positive relationship between organizational learning and user-centred design practice performance but has no effect on the relationship between organizational culture and user-centred design practice performance. Conclusions - This is the first empirical study of investigating and demonstrating some key organizational factors' relationships and UCD performance of an organization, which will support to institutionalize UCD within an organization, providing theoretical foundations.

  • An optimal robust design methodology has been developed to minimize the warpage in a decorating panel of monitor molded by the plastic injection. For the associated methodology, the Taguchi's Design Of Experiment (DOE) based on orthogonal arrays and Signal-to-Noise Ratio is combined with commercial simulation tools f3r injection molding. An optimal robust design solution is statistically resulted from the computational simulation. The related experiment was done for evaluations of the warpage in the decorating panel part of monitor. This research showed that the warpage under the applied optimal design conditions was comparatively reduced.

  • A study which develops a controller design methodology that has flexibility of eigenstructure assignment within the stability-robustness contraints of LQR is requried and has been performed. The previously developd control design methodology, namely, EALQR(Eigenstructure Assignment/LQR) has better performance than that of conventional LQR or eigenstructure assignment but has a constraint for the weitgting matrix in LQR, which could be indefinite for high-order system. In this paper, the effects of the indefinite Q in EALQR on the frequency domain properties are analyzed. The robustness criterion and quantitative frequency domain properties are also resented. Finally, the frequency domain properties of EALQR has been analyzed by applying to a flight control system design example.

  • In this paper, we proposed the next generation mobile convergence service business model creation methodology. In order to establish such a business model creation methodology framework, we first introduce the service model based on our previous research results on next generation mobile convergence services. The service model contains several components such as infrastructures, operations, and provision of services that are indispensible for providing the next generation mobile services. Finally, by adding service and value flows to the developed service model, we propose the next generation mobile services business model creation methodology. To achieve this objective, we first derive necessary components of business model including actors, their relationships, and roles. In addition, we propose service composition methodology for creating new mobile services and its corresponding business models.

  • This paper is on a participatory spatial design methodology using Virtual Reality, which can be applied to the overall spatial design process. Participation in the current spatial design has several limitations: one-sided communication process, difficulty of understanding the given information and partial participation in the design process. Virtual Reality can be an ideal visualization tool for Geodesign and PPGIS(Public Participation GIS), which is presented as a highest step at the participation ladder. A participatory methodology is proposed to take advantage of Virtual Reality. In order to support participation through Virtual Reality in spatial design process, theories about the participation are compared to derive the new roles of Virtual Reality and the roles are formulated in the participatory spatial design methodology. By applying the methodology to the design process and implementing each stage through Virtual Reality, the design performance of each step can be verified in the methodology. As a result, design ideas can be effectively understood through Virtual Reality experiences. It is also confirmed that the interactions in Virtual Reality and participation are possible in the entire design process.
