  • Estuarine dams are a recent and global phenomenon. While estuarine dams can provide the benefit of improved freshwater resources, they can also alter estuarine processes. Due to the wide range of estuarine types and estuarine dam configurations, the effect of estuarine dams on estuaries is not well understood in general. To develop a systematic understanding of the effect of estuarine dam location and freshwater discharge interval on a range of estuarine types (strongly stratified, partially mixed, periodically stratified, and well-mixed), this study used a coupled hydrodynamic-sediment dynamic numerical model (COAWST) and compared flow, sediment transport, and morphological conditions in the pre- and post-dam estuaries. For each estuarine type, scenarios with dam locations at 20, 55 and 90 km from the mouth and discharge intervals of a discharge every 0.5, 3, and 7 days were investigated. The results were analyzed in terms of change in tide, river discharge, estuarine classification, and sediment flux mechanism. The estuarine dam location primarily affected the tide-dominated estuaries, and the resonance length was an important length scale affecting the tidal currents and Stokes return flow. When the location was less than the resonance length, the tidal currents and Stokes return flow were most reduced due to the loss of tidal prism, the dead-end channel, and the shift from mixed to standing tides. The discharge interval primarily affected the river-dominated estuaries, and the tidal cycle period was an important time scale. When the interval was greater than the tidal cycle period, notable seaward discharge pulses and freshwater fronts occurred. Dams located near the mouth with large discharge interval differed the most from their pre-dam condition based on the estuarine classification. Greater discharge intervals, associated with large discharge magnitudes, resulted in scour and seaward sediment flux in the river-dominated estuaries, and the dam located near the resonance length resulted in the greatest landward tidal pumping sediment flux and deposition in the tide-dominated estuaries.

  • In this paper, we consider with a market pioneering game among symmetric firms in highly competitive situation. To describe the puzzling situation of timing competition, we construct a dynamic game model and explore the equilibrium solution. As a result, we find a subgame perfect mixed strategy Nash equilibrium conceptually defined by 't$_{0}$ + .elsilon. equilibrium'. Our major finding s include : i) market entry will be occurred in sequential manner even though the condition of each firm is symmetric ii) the optimal timing of market pioneering will be advanced until almost all of the monopolist's profit is dissipated, iii) as the market position of the pioneer is stronger, the timings of the pioneer and the follower are separated, iv) and as the slope of the profit flow is steeper, the entry timing of the two players will be pooled together.

  • A two compartmented autoclave reactor for the polymerization of low density polyethylene is analyzed with respect to the effects of heat transfer and operation variables. Each compartment being considered as a completely mixed cell, two CSTRs model is proposed. The system shows various multiplicity features of steady state and periodic oscillatory motions. Heat removal efficiency and initiator supplement appear to have significant effect on the conversion of monomer with the temperature properly maintained, which should be taken into account in the reactor design.

  • While the Vendor-Managed Inventory(VMI) is a convenient inventory replenishment policy for the customer company, the supplier usually bears the burden of higher inventory and urgent shipments to avoid shortage. Recently some manufacturers begin to fix the production schedule for the next few days (such as three days). Utilizing that information can improve the efficiency of the VMI. In this study, we present a myopic optimization model using a mixed inter programming; and a heuristics algorithm. We compare the performance of the two proposed methods with the existing (s, S) reorder policy. We consider the total cost as the sum of transportation cost and inventory cost at the customer's site. Numerical tests indicate that the two proposed methods significantly reduce the total cost over the (s, S) policy.

  • This paper presents vibration control performance of a passenger vehicle installed with olectro-rheological(ER) engine mounts. As a first step, a mixed-mode ER engine mount is modeled and manufactured. After verifying the controllability of the dynamic stiffness by the intensity of the electric field, ER engine mounts are incorporated with a full-car model. The governing equation of motion is then formulated by considering engine excitation force. A skyhook controller to attenuate vibration motions is designed. The controller is implemented through hardware-in-the-loop simulation and control responses are presented in the both frequency and time domains.

  • Acoustic pressure transmission coefficient and phase velocity are measured as the functions of water porosity and air porosity in sand sediment slabs with water- and air-filled pores. Pores in the sand sediment slab we modeled as the structure of circular cylindrical tube shape filled with water and air. The first kind(fast) wave and second kind (slow) wave, identified by Biot, in the solid and fluid mixed medium are affected by the presence of water and air pores. Acoustic characteristics of such porous medium in water are also theoretically investigated in terms of the modified Biot-Attenborough (MBA) model, which uses the separate treatment of viscosity effect and thermal effect in non-rigid porous medium with water- and air-filed pores. The information on the fast waves introduces new concepts of the generalized tortuosity factor and dynamic shape factor.

  • In this study, the ventilation performance of mechanical ventilation system in apartment House was analyzed through model test according to characteristics of air-vent. Then adequate interval of air-vent was suggested using computer simulation which will create comfort environment through improvement of ventilation performance in apartment house. The result of experiment with separation plate to prevent mixture of contaminated exhaust air with fresh supply air, the ventilation efficiency improved about 10%. The result of simulation with horizontal location of exterior air-vent, contaminated exhaust air is mixed regardless of interval variation. Consequently, mixture of the exhaust air can be prevented through locating the supply air vent on the top side and exhaust air vent on the lower side.

  • The free vibration of stiffened and damaged coupled shear walls is investigated using the mixed finite element method. The anisotropic damage model is adopted to describe the damage extent of the reinforced concrete shear wall element. The internal energy of a locally damaged shear wall element is derived. Polynomial shape functions established by Kwan are used to present the component of displacements vector on each point within the wall element. The principle of virtual work is employed to deduce the stiffness matrix of a damaged shear wall element. The stiffened system is reinforced by an additional stiffening beam at some level of the structure. This induces additional axial forces, and thus reduces the bending moments in the walls and the lateral deflection, and increases the natural frequencies. The effects of the damage extent and the stiffening beam on the free vibration characteristics of the structure are studied. The optimal location of the stiffening beam for increasing as far as possible the first natural frequency of vibration is presented.

  • The ultrafiltration behavior of dilute colloidal solution containing Si particles has been investigated. The experiments in cross flow mode have been performed at different operating condition by using the membrane with 20 kDa cut-off. The flux decline was due to the development of membrane fouling which was a dynamic process of two distinctive stages. For the high trans-membrane pressure, the pore blocking resistance was dominant at the initial period of filtraion and was followed by the cake resistance. And for the low cross flow velocity, the membrane fouling was governed by the cake filtration model at the initial stage of filtration process. Flux jump was observed temporally during the membrane filtration of mixed feed solution.

  • Major Characteristic of the 7th National Curriculum in science is to provide deep and supplementary learning, depending on the level of each learner. In the level-oriented curriculum, coursewares are used to present teaching materials to various levels. In most coursewares, however, they provide their contents at a uniform level and hence it is hard to expect level-oriented learning. This paper presents learner's modeling for developing student's level-oriented dynamic tutoring system for science class , Instructional module of this system made by component unit is able to be reconstructed dynamically. Learning module is constructed using a hybrid model mixed of Overlay and Bug model.
