A numerical analysis is conducted to estimate the core expansion and the energy behaviors induced by a core disruptive accident in a sodium-cooled fast reactor. The numerical formulation based on underwater explosion theory is carried out to simulate the core explosion inside the reactor vessel. The transient pressure, temperature and expansion of the core are examined by solving the equation of state and nonlinear governing equation of momentum conservation in one-dimensional spherical coordinates. The energy balance inside the computation domain is examined during the core expansion process. Heat transfer between the core and the sodium coolant, and the bubble rise during the expansion process are briefly investigated.

An elastic-plastic solution for cavity expansion problem considering strength degradation, undrained condition and initial anisotropic in-situ stress is established based on the Tresca yield criterion and cavity expansion theory. Assumptions of large-strain for plastic region and small-strain for elastic region are adopted, respectively. The initial in-situ stress state of natural soil mass may be anisotropic caused by consolidation history, and the strength degradation of soil mass is caused by structural damage of soil mass in the process of loading analysis (cavity expansion process). Finally, the published solutions are conducted to verify the suitability of this elastic-plastic solution, and the parametric studies are investigated in order to the significance of this study for in-situ soil test.

Plastics are widely used in mechanical and other fields due to their light weight, design flexibility, and molding processability. In processing plastics, defective products are mixed and reprocessed to improve production efficiency and reduce costs. In this study, an experiment was conducted to confirm the coefficient of thermal expansion of HDPE during this reprocessing. The coefficient of thermal expansion was measured at different measurement directions and heating rates. As a result, we observed that the coefficient of thermal expansion in the direction perpendicular to the injection direction is greater than that in the horizontal direction.

본 연구에서는 용암석상의 무기물인 퍼라이트의 팽창에 관한 전산 모사 및 실험을 실시하여 모델의 유효성을 검증하고자 하였다. 전산 모사는 등온 상태를 가정하여 실시하였고 초기 온도 및 수분 함량을 변화시켜 보았다. 초기 온도보다는 수분함량이 팽창에 더 큰 영향을 주었고 이는 퍼라이트의 점도 변화에 기인한 것으로 결론지을 수 있었다. 실험 결과와 비교를 위하여 시료의 충전 밀도를 측정하였고 이를 원석의 충전 밀도와 비교하여 내부 동공을 가지는 팽창 퍼라이트의 밀도를 계산하였다. 이의 결과를 전산 모사 결과와 비교하였으며 등온 상태의 전산 모사가 실험 결과와 큰 차이가 남을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 차이는 열의 일로의 변환과 이에 따른 파라미터 값의 변화가 있을 것으로 결론내릴 수 있었다.

홀 확장법은 홀 주위에 압축 잔류응력층을 생성시킴으로서 균열 발생을 지연시키는 방법으로 항공산업 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 홀 확장 잔류응력의 분포는 홀 확장률, 맨드럴 삽입방향, 재료 물성치 등 여러 가지 홀 확장 피라미터에 따라 달라진다. 홀 확장 잔류응력층의 정확한 파악은 항공산업의 실제 설계에 있어서 매우 중요함에도 불구하고 이에 대한 연구는 상대적으로 부족하였다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소해석을 통하여 두 개의 인전한 홀에 홀 확장법을 적용하는 경우 대한 잔류응력 분포를 구하였다. 연구 결과 두개 홀에 동시에 홀 확장을 하는 경우가 순차적으로 홀 확장으로 하는 경우보다 더 유리한 잔류응력 분포를 얻을 수 있었다.

In the multi-stage and multi-process plant, it is not an easy task to describe the interrelationships among each process and facility. The purpose of this simulation study is to analyze the effect of additional facilities on productivity in a steel mill. The simulation was performed using SLAM Simulation Language for Alternative Modeling. The results of this study was used by the plant engineers in making decisions on the expansion of the plate mill. The prediction of which process would cause bottle-necks enabled the plant engineers to invest most effectively.

The paper deals with an analysis of an extrusion process with a divided material flow in a combined radial - backward extrusion. The paper discusses the influences of tool geometry such as punch nose angle, relative gap height, die comer radius on material flow and surface expansion into can and flange region. To analyze the process, numerical simulations by the FEM and experiment, an Al alloy as a model material have been performed. Based on the results, the influence of design parameters on the distribution of divided material flow and surface expansion are obtained.

The advent of highly integrated, high-power electronics requires low a coefficient of thermal expansion performance to prevent delamination between the heat dissipation material and substrate. This paper reports a preliminary study on the manufacturing technology of gas reaction control composite material, focusing on the prediction of the thermal expansion coefficients of Al-AlN composite materials. We obtained numerical equivalent property values by using finite element analysis and compared the values with theoretical formulas. Al-AlN should become the optimal composite material when the proportion of the reinforcing phase is approximately 0.45.

Due to distinct properties of plastic substrates such as poor thermal resistance, non-rigidness and high thermal expansion, it is difficult to fabricate plastic film LCDs by conventional LCD processes. Poor thermal resistance and high thermal expansion of substrates induced deformation of substrates surface, mismatch of thermal expansion between ITO electrodes and substrates resulted in defects in the ITO electrodes during the high temperature process. Defects of ITO electrodes and non-uniform cell gap caused by non-rigid and flexible properties were also observed in the pressuring process. Based on in these observations, we used a newly developed material and fabrication process to prevent deformation of substrates, defects of electrodes and to maintain uniform cell gap. The maximum temperature of the process is limited up to $110^{\circ}C$ and pressure loaded during the process is five times less than conventional one. With these invented processes and materials, we obtained highly reliable Plastic Film STN LCDs whose electro-optical characteristics are better than or equivalent to those of typical glass LCDs.

Objective: The oligosaccharide moieties of glycoproteins and proteoglycans have a vital function in blastocyst differentiation. Concanavalin (ConA), a lectin, is known to bind on the preimplantation embryos, especially on blastocyst. In this study, we investigated whether ConA can modulate the trophoblast development and about the regulating mediator. Also, we investigated whether expansion is enough for hatching procession of the mouse blastocyst. Method: Embryos were collected at 72 h post hCG injection and chemicals were treated after 24 h (96 hr post hCG injection). ConA or calcium ionophore A23187 were exposed to blastocyst and than analysis the developmental process for 48 hr. Intracellular free-$Ca^{2+}$ concentration in trophectoderm was measured with confocal laser microscope after exposing to ConA or calcium ionophore A23187. ConA-pretreated blastocyst exposed to the calcium ionophore A23187 and then analyzed the developmental process. Otherwise ouabain was treated to the blastocyst to block the $Na^+/K^+$-ATPase activity. Results: In contrast to the control blastocyst, the ConA-exposed blastocysts developed beyond the expansion stage with significantly high rate (90.4%) at 12 h post administration. ConA induced an increase the intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration in trophectoderm. Calcium ionophore A23187 also stimulated expansion of blastocyst. Most of the control blastocysts developed to the hatching stage at 144 h post hCG injection. However, strongly 65% of the ConA-exposed embryos were arrested at expanded stage at same time point. The developmental progression rates to hatching stage of both ConA- and calcium ionophore A23187-expose blastocysts were significantly lower than that of the control. However ConA-pretreated embryos developed to the hatching stage like control embryos. Ouabain showed a tendency to delayed the progress to expansion stage but did not inhibit the development to the hatching stage. Conclusion: ConA-mediated expansion is the result of the increase of intracellular free-calcium in blastocyst stage embryo. It is suspected that expansion of the blasocyst is a essential indirect factor in hatching and the calcium may triggering the cellular mechanisms for the both expansion and hatching progression.
