Two numerical methods such as DEM and FDM were adopted to analysis of rock slope stability, of which dimensions are about 150 m(length), 58 m(height), 70°dip, in Halla limestone mine. For this rock slope stability analysis, strength reduction method was used to calculate the safety factor of slope through numerical method. To keep the rock slope safely, it is proposed to reduce the height of the rock slope from 58 m to 45 m and to reduce the angle of the slope from 70°to 55°, too.

Two dimensional computer simulation of solidification behavior using FDM as simulation tool was applied to AI-bronze casting. By the comparison of computer simulation with the experimental results, it was showed that the final shrinkage position and solidification time are good accordance with results of computer simulation. It is expected that this software will be widely applied to casting design or rise ring for directional solidification.

In this study, We peformed on the effective evaluation of slope berm construction using slope stability analysis programs. The effective evaluation of slope berm construction was performed by stability of slope and economy of construction. This time, used slope stability analysis programs are Talren97 that use Limit equilibrium method (LEM) and FLAC-SLOPE that use finite difference method (FDM), and carried out using Rocfall program to evaluate slope stability by rockfall occurrence.

One dimensional conduction equation is solved by finite difference method, to analyse the stability of Au/YBCO film deposited on a sapphire substrate. Joule heat is included in the case of current sharing state. The analysis shows the quench and recovery of superconductor depending on the amount of thermal disturbance release on the center surface of superconductor. The critical disturbance energies for different filling factor and operating current are calculated.

Three methods for design sensitivity analysis such as finite difference method(FDM), direct differentiation method(DDM) and adjoint variable method(AVM) are well known. FDM and DDM for design sensitivity analysis cost too much when the number of design variables is too large. An AVM is required to compute adjoint variables from the simultaneous linear system equation, the so-called adjoint equation. Because the adjoint equation is independent of the number of design variables, an AVM is efficient for when number of design variables is too large. In this study, AVM has been extended to the eigenproblem of damped systems whose eigenvlaues and eigenvectors are complex numbers. Moreover, this method is implemented into a commercial finite element analysis program by means of the semi-analytical method to show applicability of the developed method into practical structural problems. The proposed_method is compared with FDM and verified its accuracy for analytical and practical cases.

Efficient algorithm for the solidification simulation by FDM is described from the practical point of views. If a proper time step ${\Delta}t$ is selected, the calculation is accelerated by implicit algorithm with the temperature recovery method of latent heat method. The implicit routine in the calculation is processed by SOR method(relaxation factor＝1.5, truncation error＝$10^{-4}$). The calculation is more accelerated by linear-interpolated explicite algorithm with a time step larger than the minimum value of the time step. This explicit method, which is applicable to the practical casting simulation problems, produces almost same results with about 40% faster calculation speed compared with the conventional explicit method.

This paper presents a simple and fast delay metric RC-class interconnects under saturated ramp inputs. The RC delay metric under saturated ramp inputs, called FDM(Fast Delay Metric), can estimate delay times at an arbitrary node using a simple closed-form expression and is extended from delay metric under step input easily As compared with similar techniques proposed in previous researches, it is shown that the FDM technique complexity for a similar accuracy. As the number of circuit nodes increases, there will be a significant difference in estimation times of RC delay between the previous techniques based on two circuit moments and the FDM which do not depend on circuit moments.

Sustainable growth of hydroelectric power plants is expected in consideration of climate change and energy security. However, hydroelectric power plants always have a risk of water hammer damage, and safety assurance is very important. The water hammer phenomenon commonly occurs during operations such as rapid opening and closing of the valves and pump/turbine shutdown in pipe systems, which is more common in cases of emergency shutdown. In this study, a computational numerical model was developed using the MOC-FDM scheme to reflect the mechanism of water hammer occurrence. The proposed model was implemented in boundary conditions such as reservoir, pipeline, valve, and pump/turbine conditions and then applied to simulate hypothetical case studies. The analysis results of the model were verified using the analysis results at the main points of the pipe systems. The model produced reasonably good performance and was validated by comparison with the results of the SIMSEN package model. The model could be used as an efficient tool for the safety assessment of hydroelectric power plants based on accurate prediction of transient behavior in the operation of hydropower facilities.

본 연구에서는 여러 다른 냉각속도로 냉각되는 강의 조직과 경도를 예측하는 수치 해석을 수행하였다. 해석 프로그램은 확산과 비확산 변태에 대한 변태 이행 방정식과 유한차분법을 이용하여 제품에 대해서 온도분포 및 조직변태에 대한 예측을 수행하고 또한 경도를 예측하도록 하였다. 해석 결과와의 비교를 위해 여러 다른 냉각속도로 냉각되는 AISI 410시편들에 대한 일련의 시험을 행하여 각각의 조직과 경도를 구하였으며 특히 온도해석에 사용하는 열전달계수는 실험을 통하여 구한 값을 사용하였다. 실험에 의해 구해진 결과는 해석 프로그램을 이용한 값과 잘 일치 하였다.

로울러 베어링의 로울러는 길이방향으로 적당하게 Profiling하여 양단부에서 발생하는 응력집중을 줄이고 있다. 로울러와 레이스간의 접촉을 단순한 탄성접촉문제로 해석하는 경우에는 유막의 개념이 없어서 로울러와 레이스 사이의 압력분포와 유막형상을 정확하게 나타내기가 어려우므로 탄성변형과 압력에 따른 윤활유의 점도 변화를 고려한 탄성유체윤활(EHL)해석이 필요하다. 대부분의 해석은 무한장 로울러로 취급하는 것이 보통이며 실제의 로울러에 해당하는 유한한 길이의 선접촉 EHL 해석은 Mostofi & Gohar 및 Kuroda & Arai의 해석 정도이나 각각은 수렴하중이 작거나 로울러의 길이가 아주 짧은 경우에 해당한다. 본 연구에서는 FDM과 Newton-Raphson method를 이용하여 길이가 유한한 실제 크기의 Profiled 로울러에 대한 EHL상태에서의 압력분포와 유막형상을 보다 하중이 온 경우에 대해서 구하고자 한다.
