  • Acoustic signal is emitted from a vessel and received by a cylindrical array sensor at some distance from the vessel. Acoustic signal is the source for a cylindrical array sensor which is designed to detect the acoustic signal. Cylindrical array sensors seldom have an ideal hydrodynamic shape and are not sufficiently robust to survive without some protection and they are normally housed in a sonar dome. Reflected signals by some structure inside a sonar dome make unwanted signals. Therefore, an acoustic baffle is used to minimize unwanted signals. The performance of the acoustic baffles can be determined from the acoustic numerical analysis at the design stage. In this study, finite element method was used to analyze the acoustic field around the cylindrical array sensor and baffle effects. The baffle performance can be defined the echo reduction. To show the baffle performance, the specimens were made for pulse tube test and echo reductions were measured during the test. In this paper, the effect of echo reduction of the acoustic baffle was discussed.

  • This study investigated elementary students' spatial thinking and visualization when they learned the shape of volcanoes. For this purpose we used GeoMapApp to design instruction program and assessment items. In the instruction, students were asked to connect the floor plan view of Jeju island with the cross-sectional view of the same figure producted by GeoMapApp. Then they were asked to classify four sets of pictures of volcanoes based on the similarities of figures, that is, dome-shaped and shield volcanoes. In the assessment students solved three questions which examined how they connected the plan view and cross-sectional profile of Kilauea, draw cross-sectional profile of Mt. Fuji, and distinguished a shield volcano and dome-shaped one. Students' discourse data during the class were analyzed according to the amount to showing their spatial thinking and visualization. The instruction program using GeoMapApp assisted students to facilitate their spatial thinking for understanding of volcanoes. The outcomes of assessment showed even elementary students had good spatial thinking and visualization. Therefore, we argued spatial thinking and visualization for geoscientific understanding need to be included in the national science curriculum for elementary students.

  • A study on silica-scaled chrysophytes(Chrysophyceae and Synurophyceae) from Mt. Sinbul alpine wetland, South Korea was performed from January 2018 to March 2020 using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). We found a total of 19 taxa of silica-scaled chrysophytes; Mallomonas(13); Synura (3); Chromophysomonas (1); Chrysosphaerella (1); and Paraphysomonas(1), of which six taxa, including two new species(Mallomonas dimorphus sp. nov. and Mallomonas alpestris sp. nov.), were reported for the first time in Korea. All the species are illustrated with SEM micrographs and briefly described with regard to their taxonomy. Two new species were described based on the cell shape, size and ultrastructure of the scales and bristles. Mallomonas dimorphus sp. nov. belongs to the Sectio Heterospinae in that its scales have a flat dome, a reticulated secondary layer and needle shaped bristles. However, this species is distinguished from other taxa in the Sectio by two different patterns of shield ornamentation and a dome ornamentation. Mallomonas alpestris sp. nov. belongs to Series Torquatae (Sectio Torquatae) characterized elongated domed collar scales, domeless body scales and rear scales with a short spine. However, it is different from all other taxa in the Sectio Torquatae as well as Series Torquatae by shield ornamentation of the body and rear scales with evenly spaced transverse ribs and papillae.

  • The dome and neck part of a vessel is generally formed by a hot spinning process with a seamless tube. However, as studies on and design data from the hot spinning process are insufficient, this process has been performed based on trial and error and the experiences of field engineers. Changes in the inner diameter from the bottom to the top of the neck have occurred mainly because of the characteristics of the hot spinning process due to the high-speed rotation of the rollers. In this study, a theoretical and finite element analysis of the vessel is conducted with different material(Cr-13)-supplemented screw threads for tapping and to reduce shape errors. Based on the results, tne structural safety under the operating conditions is evaluated.

  • The importance and the interest of wind load have emphasized since the damage of the Jeju World cup Stadium and Main Stadium of Busan Asiad in 2002, and the appearance of high-rise buildings. In general, a evaluation for the wind load acting on structures have been carried out mainly through the wind tunnel test, but this technique has the huge shortcomings that consume too much cost and experimental time. However, with the rapid advances on computers, it is possible to analyze the wind pressure distribution acting on structures by numerical scheme. In this paper, to predict the wind pressure distribution acting on shell structures having the various shape by numerical simulation, governing equations of fluid flow and turbulent model is formulated. Also, evaluates the wind pressure coefficient in accordance with the structural shape for shell structures like as a membrane structures and dome structures.

  • This paper provides the resuIts on the evaluation of dynamic characteristics of the optimized shells. Five fundamental technologies such as computer-aided geometric design, automatic mesh generation, shell finite element, design sensitivity analysis and shell optimization process, are used for shell optimization maximizing the fundamental natural frequency. A dome shell is adopted for the shell shape optimization and the dynamic characteristic of the optimized shell such as the variation of natural frequencies is then investigated. From the investigation, more constraint functions related to shell natural frequencies is necessarily required to effectively control dynamic characteristics of the optimized shells.

  • The rotary compressor is widely used for the air conditioner because it is efficient and compact. In recent, the need for silent and efficient compressors is much stronger than the past. The new type muffler was invented to reduce noise level and to improve efficiency. The new type muffler that has two side discharge holes and dome shape represents much lower overall noise level, especially noise levels around 1kHz than the old type one that has one center discharge hole In acoustic spectra. Also it has higher air conditioner efficiency by lower oil discharging amount of a compressor than old type one that has rectangular shape and two side discharge holes. The noise reduction and efficiency improvement effects of the new type muffler were verified by tests for rotary compressors and air conditioners.

  • The evolution dynamics of nanoscale Ge islands on both Si (001) and (113) surfaces is explored using ultraviolet photoelectron emission microscopy (UV-PEEM). Real-time monitoring of the in-situ growth of the Ge island structures can allow us to study the variation of the size, the shape and the density of the nanostructures. For Ge depositions greater than ${\sim}4$ monolayer (ML) with a growth rate of ${\sim}0.4\;ML/min$ at temperatures of $450-550^{\circ}C$, we observed island nucleation on both surfaces indicating the transition from strained layer to island structure. During continuous deposition the circular islands grew larger via ripening processes. AFM measurements showed that the islands grown on Si (001) were dome-shaped while the islands on Si (113) were multiple-side faceted with flat tops of (113)-orientation. In contrast, for Ge deposition with a lower growth rate of ${\sim}0.15\;ML/min$ on Si(113), we observed the shape transition from circular into elongated island structures. The elongated islands grew longer along the [$33\bar{2}$] during continuous Ge deposition. The shape evolution of the islands is discussed in terms of strain relaxation and kinetic effects.

  • The impact programmer for impact test was designed and the impact analysis was conducted. The effects of the material and geometric parameters on the impact force and pulse shape were investigated. The impact characteristics were examined by experimental and finite element method. The impact test was conducted with free drop impact tester. The ABAQUS/Explicit 5.5 version was used for finite element analysis. The geometric parameters of the conical and dome type impact programmer were analyzed. The polyurethane impact programmers were fabricated and tested. The effects of the hardness and thickness of the impact programmer were studied. The peak acceleration and time duration of impact programmer have close correlation with the hardness, impact energy and thickness of the impactor. The experiment was good agreement with analytical predictions. The impact pulse shape generated with polyurethane impact programmer was half sine shape. The maximum impact force was proportional to impact energy. The impact acceleration was decreased with thickness of impact programmer. The maximum impact time duration level was about 2 msec.
