A potential based panel method is used to predict the open water characteristics of spade-type rudders. The inflow velocity is assumed to be constant in lime and uniform in space. Source and dipole are distributed on the rudder surface. It is assumed that the wake surface is streaming from trailing edge and it is represented by dipole distribution. In this paper, wake geometry is assumed by imposing appropriate conditions at the trailing edge and far from the body. The effects of wake geometry are studied. The pressure Kutta condition is applied at the trailing edge, the effects of which are compared with those of two-dimensional Kutta condition. The results of calculations for a spade-type rudder are compared with published results. It is concluded that this approach shows fairly good agreement with experimental results and can be used in the initial design stage of a rudder.

Three Dimensional finite element method (FEM) was used to obtain the stress intensity factor for subsurface cracks and surface cracks existing in inhomogeneous materials. A geometry model, i.e. a solid containing one or several 3D cracks is defined. Several distributions of local node density are chosen, and then automatically superposed on one another over the geometry model. Nodes are generated by the bubble packing, and ten-noded quadratic tetrahedral solid elements are generated by the Delaunay triangulation techniques. To examine accuracy and efficiency of the present system, the stress intensity factor for a semi-elliptical surface crack in a plate subjected to uniform tension is calculated, and compared with Raju-Newman's solutions. Then the system is applied to analyze interaction effects of two dissimilar semi-elliptical cracks in a plate subjected to uniform tension.

The subway is a necessary public transportation in big cities, which many citizens are using now. However, the demands for subway inner circumstance by citizens are growing recently. Among them, the noise problem is the hot issue to be solved. So, in this study we classified the characteristics of subway noise using the classification and regression trees (CART) based on noise level data in line No. 5 in Seoul. After that We developed the models for effect of subway noise and analyzed the characteristics through it. The result of this study is that we need to consider the type of geometry design and operational factors when the problem of subway noise improves, because the factors which weigh with subway noise are different by type of geometry and operational part.

드론 Photogrammetry는 높은 기술적 활용가치가 있는 기술로서, 결과물로 생성하는 3D 디지털 공간정보 모델이 시설물의 비육안 안전점검 및 진단에 활용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 디지털 트윈 구축을 위한 가장 기초적이고 핵심적인 수치 데이터를 제공하기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 드론 Photogrammetry의 적정 품질을 구현하기 위한 임무비행의 다양한 영향인자에 대해 고찰하였다. K-water연구원 누수탐사실습장을 대상으로 드론 사진 촬영 시 비행고도, 비행속도, 중첩도, 카메라 Pitch각의 영향에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 비행시간에 영향을 미치는 인자로서 비행고도, 중첩도, 비행속도의 순으로 중요도가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 드론 임무 비행 시 후처리 결과에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 인자는 중첩도로 나타났다. 중첩도 60% 임무비행은 3D 모델의 geometry 왜곡이 큰 편으로 나타났다. 비행 고도는 GSD (Ground Sampling Distance)와 직접 연계되므로 중요하며, 낮은 고도일수록 높은 품질의 모델링이 가능하다. April Tag를 통한 지상기준점 자동 패턴 인식 기능은 후처리 과정에서 시간 절약이 가능하여 유용하였다. 비행속도에 의한 결과물의 품질은 큰 차이가 없었으나, 수직 구조물의 모서리 부분에 다소 차이가 있었다. 짐벌 Pitch각도에 의한 정사영상 품질의 차이는 크지 않았으나 수직구조물과 평면적 구조물에 따라 각기 다른 촬영각도를 적용하는 것이 바람직하다. 본 연구성과는 향후 보다 다양한 환경에서의 데이터 수집을 통해 최적 디지털 현실 모델링에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.

Effects of structural features of 4 dinuclear constrained geometry catalysts having paraxylene derivative bridge (DCGC) on copolymerization of ethylene and 1-hexene were investigated. The bridges of three catalysts have para-xylene backbone with a different substituent at benzene ring. The substituents were hydrogen (Catalyst 1), isopropyl (Catalyst 2), n-hexyl (Catalyst 3) and 1-octyl (Catalyst 4). It was found that Catalyst 1 having hydrogen as a substituent exhibited the greatest activity among the four dinuclear CGCs. On the other hand, Catalyst 2 containing isopropyl as a substituent showed the smallest activity. Very interestingly, Catalyst 2 was able to produce about 6 times higher molecular weight polymer than Catalyst 3 and 4. Catalyst 3 and 4 having a long alkyl chain substituent revealed the biggest comonomer response to generate polyethylene copolymer containing more than 40% 1-hexene contents. These results suggest that the control of the substituent of para-xylene bridge of dinuclear CGC can provide a proper method to adjust the microstructure of polyethylene copolymers.

In this study, decompositive optimization method of two levels was selected to optimize effectively the geometry of the truss which takes the multi-loading condition, and the allowable stress, bucking stress, displacement and natural frequency constraints into consideration. The algorithm of this study is made up of sectional optimization using the feasible direction method in level 1, and geometrical optimization employing Powell's one-direction search method which menimizes only objictive function in level 2. The results of this study acquired by beenning applied to structural model of the truss are as follows : 1. It is verified that the algorithm of this study effectively converges, independent of the initial geometry of the truss and the applied various constraints. 2. The optimum goemetry of the truss varies more considerably according to the constraints selected. 3. Under the condition of the same design, the weight of the truss can be decreased more considerably by means of optimizing even the geometry of truss than by means of optimizing the section of truss while fixing geometrical configuration of it, even though there might be a little difference according to the initial geometry of the truss and the design condition.

The comprehensive implication in justification activity that includes the proof in the elementary school level where the logical and formative verification is hard to come has to be instructed. Therefore, this study has set the following issues. First, what is the mathematical justification type shown in the Number and Operations, and Geometry? Second, what are the errors shown by students in the justification process? In order to solve these research issues, the test was implemented on 62 third grade elementary school students in D City and analyzed the mathematical justification type. The research result could be summarized as follows. First, in solving the justification type test for the number and operations, students evenly used the empirical justification type and the analytical justification type. Second, in the geometry, the ratio of the empirical justification was shown to be higher than the analytical justification, and it had a difference from the number and operations that evenly disclosed the ratio of the empirical justification and the analytical justification. And third, as a result of analyzing the errors of students occurring during the justification process, it was shown to show in the order of the error of omitting the problem solving process, error of concept and principle, error in understanding the questions, and technical error. Therefore, it is prudent to provide substantial justification experiences to students. And, since it is difficult to correct the erroneous concept and mistaken principle once it is accepted as familiar content that it is required to find out the principle accepted in error or mistake and re-instruct to correct it.

Axial-flow fans are used to transport fluids in relatively low-pressure flow regimes, and a variety of design variables are employed. The tip geometry of an axial fan plays a dominant role in its flow and noise performance, and two of the most prominent flow phenomena are the tip vortex and the tip leakage vortex that occur at the tip of the blade. Various studies have been conducted to control these three-dimensional flow structures, and winglet geometries have been developed in the aircraft field to suppress wingtip vortices and increase efficiency. In this study, a numerical and experimental study was conducted to analyze the effect of winglet geometry applied to an axial fan blade for an air conditioner outdoor unit. The unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equation and the FfocwsWilliams and Hawkings (FW-H) equation were numerically solved based on computational fluid dynamics techniques to analyze the three-dimensional flow structure and flow noise numerically, and the validity of the numerical method was verified by comparison with experimental results. The differences in the formation of tip vortex and tip leakage vortex depending on the winglet geometry were compared through a three-dimensional flow field, and the resulting aerodynamic performance was quantitatively compared. In addition, the effect of winglet geometry on flow noise was evaluated by numerically simulating noise based on the predicted flow field. A prototype of the target fan model was built, and flow and noise experiments were conducted to evaluate the actual performance quantitatively.

Currently, the dose distribution calculation used by commercial treatment planning systems (TPSs) for high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy is derived from point and line source approximation method recommended by AAPM Task Group 43 (TG-43). However, the study of Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is required in order to assess the accuracy of dose calculation around three-dimensional Ir-192 source. In this study, geometry factor was calculated using segmented sources integration method by dividing microSelectron HDR Ir-192 source into smaller parts. The Monte Carlo code (MCNPX 2.5.0) was used to calculate the dose rate $\dot{D}(r,\theta)$ at a point ($r,\theta$) away from a HDR Ir-192 source in spherical water phantom with 30 cm diameter. Finally, anisotropy function and radial dose function were calculated from obtained results. The obtained geometry factor was compared with that calculated from line source approximation. Similarly, obtained anisotropy function and radial dose function were compared with those derived from MCPT results by Williamson. The geometry factor calculated from segmented sources integration method and line source approximation was within 0.2% for $r{\geq}0.5$ cm and 1.33% for r=0.1 cm, respectively. The relative-root mean square error (R-RMSE) of anisotropy function obtained by this study and Williamson was 2.33% for r=0.25 cm and within 1% for r>0.5 cm, respectively. The R-RMSE of radial dose function was 0.46% at radial distance from 0.1 to 14.0 cm. The geometry factor acquired from segmented sources integration method and line source approximation was in good agreement for $r{\geq}0.1$ cm. However, application of segmented sources integration method seems to be valid, since this method using three-dimensional Ir-192 source provides more realistic geometry factor. The anisotropy function and radial dose function estimated from MCNPX in this study and MCPT by Williamson are in good agreement within uncertainty of Monte Carlo codes except at radial distance of r=0.25 cm. It is expected that Monte Carlo code used in this study could be applied to other sources utilized for brachytherapy.

Purpose: To compare the results on myopia correction with reverse geometry lenses, effects of wearing reverse geometry lenses were evaluated for the children with low-level and high-level myopia. Methods: The research investigated the corrective effects of having worn reverse geometry lenses for one week, one month, three months and six months on a total of thirty-six persons (sixty-two eyes) between the ages of seven and fifteen, divided into three groups by the degree of their myopia; nineteen eyes(Group One) with myopia of -2.00 D and under, twenty-eight eyes(Group Two) with myopia between -2.25 D and -4 D, and fifteen eyes(Group Three) with myopia of -4.25 D and above; as shown by changes in uncorrected vision and the degree of refraction in the corneal topography, and tested for statistical similarity among the pursued results. Results: After wearing reverse geometry lenses, Group One showed an improvement in vision of 0.5, from 0.45 to 0.95, after one week, and improvements to 0.91 after one month and 1.02 after three months but, after six months, the group's vision regressed to 0.95. Group Two showed an improvement in vision of 0.43, from 0.34 to 0.77, after one week of wearing and to 0.91 after one month, to 0.97 after three months and this was statistically maintained through the remainder of six months. Group Three showed an improvement in vision of 0.55, from 0.15 to 0.7, after wearing for one week, to 0.87 after one month and to 0.91 after three months but saw a regression to 0.86 after six months. The average Sim K (simulated keratometry reading) value for Group One started from $42.84{\pm}1.17D$ and decreased to $41.48{\pm}0.98D$ after one week of wearing and continued declining through three months before increasing during the remainder of six months. Group Two began from $42.91{\pm}1.57D$ and recorded $41.78{\pm}1.58 D$ after one week, continuing the decline through three months before increasing during the remainder of six months. Group Three began at $42.64{\pm}1.64D$ and showed its Sim K value decrease to $40.77{\pm}1.20D$ after one week of wearing, increase after one month and decrease after three months and continue the decline through the remainder of six months. Conclusions: From the results of this study, wearing reverse geometry lenses had myopia-correcting effects after one week of wearing. Although there were variations in the time for such effect to take place but myopia-correcting effects were evident in all test groups.
