Optimum directivity synthesis of ultrasonic transducers in linear array is considered. To realize the desired directivity, a robust and efficient method is proposed which is the direct inversion combined with the iterative DFP (Davidon-Fletcher-Powell) method. A quasi-ideal beam with the beam width and the steering beam angle specified are chosen for the numerical demonstrations. The demonstration is then extended to the case of multi-beams. The proposed combination method shows quick convergence over the single LMS or DFP method at the expense of the system matrix inversion.

This paper addresses an efficient modification method that eliminates the undesirable effects of strains due to various non-conforming modes so that the non-conforming element can pass the patch test unconditionally. The scheme is incorporated in the element formulation to establish new types of non-conforming hexahedral elements designated as NHx and NVHx for the regular element and variable node element, respectively. Non-conforming displacement modes are selectively added to the ordinary (conforming) element displacement assumptions to improve the bending behavior of the distorted solid element. To verify the validation of proposed direct modification method and the improvement of element behavior, several numerical tests are carried out. Test results show that the proposed method is effective and its applications to non-conforming solid elements guarantee for the element to pass the patch test.

A new slab design using secant stiffness, Direct Inelastic Slab Design, was developed. Since basically the proposed design method uses linear analysis, it is convenient and stable in numerical analysis. At the same time, the proposed design method can accurately estimate the inelastic strength and ductility demands of slab because it can analyzes the inelastic behavior of structure using iterative calculations for secant stiffness. In the present study, the procedure of the proposed design method was established, and a computer program incorporating the proposed method was developed. Design examples using the proposed method were presented, and compared with traditional nonlinear analysis, and experiments. The Direct Inelastic Slab Design, as an integrated analysis/design method, can directly address the design strategy intended by the engineer, such as moment strength and ductility limit. As a result, economical and safe design can be achieved.

파랑하중하의 지반내 간극수압의 정확한 평가는 연안구조물에서 지반의 안정성을 검토하는데 중요한 요소이다. 파$\cdot$구조물 지반의 상호간섭에 대한 대부분의 기존 수치모델은 파동장과 지반부를 분리하여 해석하는 Hybrid기법을 적용하고 있기 때문에, 보다 고정도로 이들의 상호간섭을 모의하기 위해서는 파랑하중하에서 파$\cdot$구조물$\cdot$지반을 일체화한 수치모델의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 투과층의 다양한 기하학적인 형태에 따라 층류저항까지 고려한 모델화 된 유체저항을 도입하여 파 구조물 지반의 비선형동적응답을 해석하기 위한 직접수치해석기법을 새롭게 제안하였다 직접수치해석기법은 Hybrid기법과는 달리 유체와 다공질매체의 접합면에서 특별한 경계조건을 필요로 하지 않는다. 파$\cdot$구조물$\cdot$지반의 상호간섭에 대해 기존의 수리실험결과와 본 연구의 계산결과를 비교함으로써 좋은 일치성을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 새롭게 제안된 본 수치기법은 파 구조물 지반의 비선형동적응답을 평가하는 유용한 기법으로 판단된다.

본 논문에서는 유전체 원통주의 전자파 과도 응답 산란 특성을 새로운 수치 해석 방법으로 연구하낟. 수치 해석에 사용하는 경계적분 방정식(BIE)의 기본 수식은 가중 잔차법으로 부터 시작된다. 경계 적분 방정식을 확장 경계 조건과 표면 경계 조건을 물체의 표면점 내부와 외부에 적용시켜 두개의 연립방정식을 만든다. 수치해석으로 경계요소법을 사용하고, 이 방법에는 직접법과 간접법 두 가지가 있다. 그래서 연산자를 메트릭스 역변환하는 간접법을 수치해석방법으로 사용한다. 결과값은 다른 연구 결과값과 좋은 일치를 보인다.

The present study addresses the direct and indirect methods of determining the mode-I fracture toughness of concrete using experimental tests and particle flow code. The direct method used is compaction tensile test and the indirect methods are notched Brazilian disc test, semi-circular bend specimen test, and hollow center cracked disc. The experiments were carried out to determine which indirect method yields the fracture toughness closer to the one obtained by the direct method. In the numerical analysis, the PFC model was first calibrated with respect to the data obtained from the Brazilian laboratory test. The crack paths observed in the simulated tests were in reasonable accordance with experimental results. The discrete element simulations demonstrated that the macro fractures in the models are caused by microscopic tensile breakages on large numbers of bonded particles. The mode-I fracture toughness in the direct tensile test was smaller than the indirect testing results. The fracture toughness obtained from the SCB test was closer to the direct test results. Hence, the semi-circular bend test is recommended as a proper experiment for determination of mode-I fracture toughness of concrete in the absence of direct tests.

A systematic procedure for designing a direct-radiator-type loudspeaker has been developed, based on a numerical vibro-acoustic analysis and the Taguchi method. The finite-element model of the speaker cone has been used to calculate the vibration response of the cone excited by the voice coil. The vibration response of the speaker cone has been used as a boundary condition for the acoustic analysis, and the acoustic frequency characteristics of the loudspeaker have been calculated by the boundary element method. The numerical model has been confirmed by comparing the numerical results with experimental ones obtained in an anechoic chamber. Some design parameters contributing dominantly to the acoustic characteristics have been selected by using the Taguchi method, and the variations of the acoustic characteristics due to the changes of the parameter values have been examined using the numerical model.

This paper targets a direct and quantitative prediction of characteristics of unstable waves in a combustion chamber, which employs the governing equations derived in terms of amplification factors of flow variables. A freshly formulated nonlinear acoustic equation is obtained and the analysis of unsteady waves in a rocket engine is attempted. In the present formalism, perturbation method decomposes the variables into time-averaged part that can be obtained easily and accurately and time-varying part which is assumed to be harmonic. Excluding the use of conventional spatially sinusoidal eigenfunctions, a direct numerical solution of wave equation replaces the initial spatial distribution of standing waves and forms the nonlinear space-averaged terms. Amplification factor is also calculated independently by the time rate of changes of fluctuating variables, and is no longer an explicit function for compulsory representation. Employing only the numerical computation, major assumptions inevitably inherent, and in erroneous manner, in up to date analytical methods could be avoided. With two definitions of amplification factor, 1-D stable wave and 3-D unstable wave are examined, and clearly demonstrated the potentiality of a suggested theoretical-numerical method of combustion instability.

Numerical and experimental investigations are performed for the molecular transition and slip flows in pumping channels of a disk-type drag pump. The flow occurring in the pumping channel develops from the molecular transition to the slip flow traveling downstream. Two different numerical methods are used in this analysis: the first one is a continuum approach in solving the Navier-Stokes equations with slip boundary conditions, and the second one is a stochastic approach through the use of the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. In the experimental study, the inlet pressures are measured for various outlet pressures in the range of 0.1{\sim}4Torr. From the present study, the numerical results of predicting the performance, obtained by both methods, agree well with the experimental data for the range of Knudsen number $Kn{\leq}0.1$ (i.e., the slip flow regime). But the results from the second method only agree with the experimental data for Kn>0.1(i.e., the molecular transition regime)

A direct boundary element method (DBEM) is developed for thin bodies whose surfaces are rigid or compliant. The Helmholtz integral equation and its normal derivative integral equation are adoped simultaneously to calculate the pressure on both sides of the thin body, instead of the jump values across it, to account for the different surface conditions of each side. Unlike the usual assumption, the normal velocity is assumed to be discontinuous across the thin body. In this approach, only the neutral surface of the thin body has to be discretized. The method is validated by comparison with analytic and/or numerical results for acoustic scattering and radiation from several surface conditions of the thin body; the surfaces are rigid when stationary or vibrating, and part of the interior surface is lined with a sound-absoring material.
