This paper is comparing numerical schemes for a differential equation with convection and fourth-order diffusion. Our model equation is $h_t+(h^2-h^3)_x=-(h^3h_{xxx})_x$, which arises in the context of thin film flow driven the competing effects of an induced surface tension gradient and gravity. These films arise in thin coating flows and are of great technical and scientific interest. Here we focus on the several numerical methods to apply the model equation and the comparison and analysis of the numerical results. The convection terms are treated with well known WENO methods and the diffusion term is treated implicitly. The diffusion and convection schemes are combined using a fractional step-splitting method.

The numerical simulations of flowfield and pollutant dispersion over two-dimensional hills of various shapes are described. The Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes equations and concentration diffusion equation based on the gradient diffusion theory have been applied to the atmospheric shear flow over the bell-shaped hills which are basic components of the complex terrain. The flow characteristics such as velocity profiles of the geophysical boundary layer, speed-up phenomena, mean pollutant concentration profiles are compared with experimental data to validate the present numerical procedure and it has been found that the present numerical results agree well with experiments and other numerical data. It has been also found that the distributions of ground level concentration are strongly influenced by the source location and height.

본 연구는 최근 의공학 분야에서 중요한 영역으로 대두되고 있는 광학과 초음파의 장점을 결합한 영상 방법인 AOT (Acousto-Optical Tomography)의 수학적 모델을 제시하였다. AOT는 광학 필드를 초음파 기둥에서 변화 시켜서 초음파 기둥의 위치 정보를 이용하여 영상을 재구성하는 방법이다. AOT의 수학적 모델은 두 단계로 나뉠 수 있다. 첫 번째 단계에서는 광학 필드의 복원을 하고, 두 번째 단계에서는 획득한 광학 필드를 기반으로 확산 방정식의 역문제를 풀어 흡수함수 ${\mu}$ (absorption coefficient)를 산출한다. 본 연구에서는 두 번째 단계에 해당하는 역문제의 해를 구하기 위하여 수치해석적인 최소화 문제로 변환하고, 수치적 팬텀을 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였다. 전통적인 기울기 하강 방법을 이용하여 역 문제 시뮬레이션의 결과를 보였다. 전변동 정규화 기반의 최소화 문제를 제안하여 기울기 하강 방법의 결과에서 보인 번짐 효과를 개선하였다.

We present in this work a coupled phenomenological chemo-mechanical model that represents the degradation of concrete-like materials. The chemical behaviour is described by the nowadays well known simplified calcium leaching approach. And the mechanical damage behaviour is described by a continuum damage model which involves the gradient of the damage quantity. The coupled nonlinear problem at hand is addressed within the context of the finite element method. For the equation governing the calcium dissolution-diffusion part of the problem, special care is taken to treat the highly nonlinear calcium conductivity and solid calcium functions. The algorithmic design is based on a Newton-type iterative scheme where use is made of a recently proposed relaxed linearization procedure. And for the equation governing the damage part of the problem, an augmented Lagrangian formulation is used to take into account the damage irreversibility constraint. Finally, numerical simulations are compared with experimental results on cement paste.

Hygroscopic knitted cotton fabric was found to spontaneously absorb water showing a significantly wide concentration gradient in the absorption direction. A semi-empirical diffusion model was introduced to describe how the wicking behavior compared to the classical capillary model (Washburn's equation), which has been widely used in the textiles industry. The capillary sorption curve and the permeability coefficient, which are key variables for the model equations, were measured using an electronic balance. The concentration profile as a function of the wicking distance and the elapsed time was derived, based on the diffusion model. From the concentration profile, the wicking distance detectable by the human eye or a digital camera with the aid of an image-analysis system, could be described realistically as a function of the time. The classical capillary model could be modified by introducing the tortuous correction factor to match the diffusion model. Wicking models and data-processing techniques in the work could provide useful tools for objectively evaluating the textile's wicking performances.

영상 분할은 영상을 의미 있는 영역들로 분할하기 위한 기법으로 컴퓨터 비전과 영상 처리 분야에서 중요하게 다루어져 왔다. 또한 영상 분할은 MPEG-4 비디오 표준과 같은 객체 기반 동영상 압축 분야에서도 영상에서 객체 영역을 분할하기 위해 많이 사용된다. 보다 정확한 영역 경계를 얻기 위해 Watershed 알고리즘이 많은 분야에서 적용되고 있다. 그러나 Watershed 알고리즘은 영상내의 경계선 잡음에 매우 취약하고 과분할된 결과가 나타난다고 알려져 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 안정화된 역 확산 방정식(Stabilized Inverse Diffusion Equation : SIDE)을 사용하여 잡음에 강인한 분할 특성을 가지면서 다중해상도 접근 방식을 통해 효율도 향상시키는 영상 분할 기법을 제안한다. 또한 본 논문에서는 인접 영역의 레이블을 사용한 영역 투영법과 영역 인접 그래프(Region Adjacency Graph : RAG)를 사용한 영역 병합법도 사용하였다. 제안된 기법을 잡음이 포함된 영상의 분할에 적용시킨 결과 과분할을 감소시키고 분할 효율이 개선됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

We consider a distributed optimal flux control problem: finding the potential of which gradient approximates the target vector field under an elliptic constraint. Introducing the Lagrange multiplier and a change of variables the Euler-Lagrange equation turns into a coupled equation of an elliptic equation and a reaction diffusion equation. The change of variables reduces iteration steps dramatically when the Gauss-Seidel iteration is considered as a solution method. For the elliptic equation solver we consider the Cell Boundary Element (CBE) method, which is the finite element type flux preserving methods.

A new second-moment closure model for turbulent heat fluxes is proposed on the basis of the elliptic equation. The new model satisfies the near-wall balance between viscous diffusion, viscous dissipation and temperature-pressure gradient correlation, and also has the characteristics of approaching its respective conventional high Reynolds number model far away from the wall. The predictions of turbulent heat transfer in a channel flow have been carried out with constant wall heat flux and constant wall temperature difference boundary conditions respectively. The velocity field variables are supplied from the DNS data and the differential equations only fur the mean temperature and the scalar flux are solved by the present calculations. The present model is tested by direct comparisons with the DNS to validate the performance of the model predictions. The prediction results show that the behavior of the turbulent heat fluxes in the whole region is well captured by the present model.

Wind flow perturbations, recirculations and turbulence generated by buildings often dominate air pollutant distributions around buildings. This paper describes dispersion of contaminants in the vicinity of a building by solving the concentration equation based on previously simulated wind flow field. Turbulence closure is achieved by using the standard k-ε two-equation model. The paper shows application of the CIP method for solving a species concentration equation of contaminant gas around a rectangular building for two different sources under conditions of neutral atmospheric stratification. Results have been compared to the experimental data and the previous numerical results by hybrid scheme. The computational results of concentration profiles by the CIP method agree well with experimental data.
