Theoretical studies have been carried out to examine the influence of the grain geometry-dependent driving forces, which control the internal flow pattern of solid rockets. Numerical studies have been executed with the help of a two-dimensional code. This code solves standard k-omega turbulence equations using the coupled second order implicit unsteady formulation. It has been concluded that the grain port divergence angles have significant leverage on the formation of recirculation bubbles leading for pressure oscillations, flow separation and reattachment. In solid rockets flow reattachment will favour secondary ignition and that will add to the complexity of the starting transient prediction.

For a simple one-dimensional ignition problem a mathematical model is described to investigate the difficulties in numerical simulations. Some computation results are obtained and comparison is made with analytical solution. Discussions are made on topics such as 1) coordinate transformation, 2) gas-phase and solid-phase analysis; (divergence form of the governing system, a finite-volume discretization, implicit time integration, upwind split flux, spatial accuracy improvement are described. Mass, reagent mass, and energy conservations are solved.), and 3) method to determine quantities on the burning surface (matching). Results obtained for small values of the non-dimensional pressure show a steady-combustion and good agreement with the analytical solution. Numerical instability appeared for larger values of the pressure, discussion on the cause of the problem is made. This effort is a part of a study of flame spread phenomena on solid propellant surface.

The steady-state simplified spherical harmonics equations (SP_N equations) are a higher order approximation to the neutron transport equations than the neutron diffusion equation that also have reasonable computational demands. This work extends these results for the analysis of transients by comparing of two formulations of time-dependent SP_N equations considering different treatments for the time derivatives of the field moments. The first is the full system of equations and the second is a diffusive approximation of these equations that neglects the time derivatives of the odd moments. The spatial discretization of these methodologies is made by using a high order finite element method. For the time discretization, a semi-implicit Euler method is used. Numerical results show that the diffusive formulation for the time-dependent simplified spherical harmonics equations does not present a relevant loss of accuracy while being more computationally efficient than the full system.

This paper presents a novel implicit level set method for topology optimization of functionally graded (FG) structures with pre-existing discontinuities (pre-cracks) using radial basis functions (RBF). The mathematical formulation of the optimization problem is developed by incorporating RBF-based nodal densities as design variables and minimizing compliance as the objective function. To accurately capture crack-tip behavior, crack-tip enrichment functions are introduced, and an eXtended Finite Element Method (X-FEM) is employed for analyzing the mechanical response of FG structures with strong discontinuities. The enforcement of boundary conditions is achieved using the Hamilton-Jacobi method. The study provides detailed mathematical expressions for topology optimization of systems with defects using FG materials. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency and reliability of the proposed methodology.

The Numerical study has been carried out to investigate the effects of chemical reaction and thermal radiation on the rocket plume flow-field at various altitudes. The theoretical formulation is based on the Navier-Stokes equations for compressible flows along with the infinitely fast chemistry and thermal radiation. The governing equations were solved by a finite volume fully-implicit TVD(Total Variation Diminishing) code which uses Roe's approximate Riemann solver and MUSCL(Monotone Upstream-centered Schemes for Conservation Laws) scheme. LU-SGS (Lower Upper Symmetric Gauss Seidel) method is used for the implicit solution strategy. An equilibrium chemistry module for hydrocarbon mixture with detailed thermo-chemical properties and a thermal radiation module for optically thin media were incorporated with the fluid dynamics code. In this study, kerosene-fueled rocket was assumed operating at O/F ratio of 2.34 with a nozzle expansion ratio of 6.14. Flight conditions considered were Mach number zero at ground level, Mach number 1.16 at altitude 5.06km and Mach number 2.9 at altitude 17.34km. Numerical results gave the understandings on the detailed plume structures at different altitude conditions. The diffusive effect of the thermal radiation on temperature field and the effect of chemical recombination during the expansion process could be also understood. By comparing the results from frozen flow and infinitely fast chemistry assumptions, the excess temperature of the exhaust gas resulting from the chemical recombination seems to be significant and cannot be neglected in the view point of performance, thermal protection and flow physics.

본 연구에서는 굳지 않은 콘크리트 및 유동 콘크리트의 흐름 거동에 관한 해석 시뮬레이션 모델의 개발에 관한 것으로, 입자법의 일종인 MPS법 (moving particle semi-implicit method)을 적용하였다. 콘크리트의 유동 현상을 점소성의 흐름 문제로 고려하였으며, 콘크리트 입자의 운동에 관한 지배방정식은 라그랑지 정식화의 Navier-Stokes 방정식과 질량보존의 법칙에 기초하도록 하였다. 굳지 않은 콘크리트의 점소성 흐름 구성관계의 정식화를 위하여 콘크리트는 부동 상태인 경우 고점성체의 유체로, 유동상태인 경우 항복응력 이후 점소성체의 유체로 모델링하였다. 개발된 모델을 이용하여 L-형 박스의 콘크리트 유동 시험에 대해 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 그 결과 예측된 흐름량은 실험의 흐름량과 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 개발된 입자법의 해석 모델은 점소성 유체의 운동현상에 기초하여 정식화 되어 콘크리트 입자의 유동 및 운동 현상을 잘 묘사해 주는 것으로 평가된다.

본고에서는 Sandhu등에 의해 개발된 다변수경계치문제의 변분모델화 방법을 이용하여 범함수의 독립변수로써 변위와 응력을 동시에 포함하는 이방성탄성문제의 혼합형변분원리(Mixed Variational Principle)를 유도한다. 탄성방정식을 내적공간에서 self-adjoint한 미분연산자매트릭스 방정식으로 표시한 후 다변수 경계치문제의 변분이론을 적용하므로써 일반적 범함수가 구해지며, 이때에 지배방정식의 미분연산자와 경계조건식의 연산자의 일관성 (Consistency)을 유지하므로써 경계조건도 체계적으로 범함수내에 포함시킬 수 있다. 이 일반적 범함수에서 미분연산자의 self-adjointness성질을 이용하여 응력함수의 도함수를 제거하고 탄성방정식중 특정식이 항상, 정확히 만족된다고 가정하므로써 원하는 혼합형변분원리의 범함수를 유도할 수 있다. 여기에서 유도된 변분원리는 최근 Reissner에 의해 개발된 변분원리와 유사한 물리적 의미를 가지나 유도방법이 다를 뿐 아니라 일반적 이방성탄성체에 적용할 때 보다 편리한 형태로 된다. 이 혼합형변분원리는 다양하게 응용될 수 있으나, 복합재료적층판과 같은 이질성, 이방성 평판이론, 또는 쉘이론의 유도에 유용하게 사용할 수 있다.

In the present study, a unified viscoplastic-damage model has been applied in order to describe the mechanical characteristics of fresh water ice such as nonlinear material behavior and volume fraction. The strain softening phenomenon of fresh water ice under quasi-static compressive loading has been evaluated based on unified viscoplastic model. The material degradation such as growth of slip/fraction has quite close relation with material inside damage. The volume fraction phenomenon of fresh water ice has been identified based on volume fraction (nucleation and growth of damage) model. The viscoplastic-damage model has been transformed to the fully implicit formulation and the discretized formulation has been implemented to ABAQUS user defined subroutine (User MATerial: UMAT) for the benefit of application of commercial finite element program. The proposed computational analysis method has been compared to uni-axial compression test of fresh water ice in order to validate the compatibilities, clarities and usefulness.

In this study, a topological design sensitivity of the ai. bearing surface (ABS) is suggested by using an adjoint variable method. The discrete form of the generalized lubrication equation based on a control volume formulation is used as a compatible condition. A residual function of the slider is considered as an equality constraint function, which represents the slider in equilibrium. The slider thickness parameters at all grid cells are chosen as design variables since they are the topological parameters determining the ABS shape. Then, a complicated adjoint variable equation is formulated to directly handle the highly nonlinear and asymmetric coefficient matrix and vector in the discrete system equation of air-lubricated slider bearings. An alternating direction implicit (ADI) scheme is utilized for the numerical calculation. This is an efficient iterative solver to solve large-scale problem in special band storage. Then, a computer program is developed and applied to a slider model of a sophisticated shape. The simulation results of design sensitivity analysis (DSA) are directly compared with those of FDM at the randomly selected grid cells to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The overall distribution of DSA results are reported, clearly showing the region on the ABS where special attention should be given during the manufacturing process.

There is an implicit assumption in most regional innovation policy studies that once a policy has been made the policy will be implemented. This assumption is not valid for regional innovation policies formulated in many countries. This assumption rests upon certain political and organization conditions. It is frequently said that regional innovation system in Korea is one of the successful cases because of properly established institution for the implementation of innovation policies. The components of institution for innovation are defined in this article. For the analysis of institution for regional innovation system in Korea, three aspects such as organization, policies & programs, and governance structure were taken into account. Institution for regional innovation system in Korea is analyzed with three aspects: (1) organization for policy implementation, (2) innovation policy, and (3) governance structure. Firstly, organizations for innovation in Korea are composed of three categories such as organizations for policy formulation, organizations for policy implementation and agencies for coordination. Secondly, there are two categories of policies for innovation: (1) policies for the enhancement of national competitiveness and policies for the regional innovation capacity building, and (2) policies for fostering manpower and policy for regulatory reform. Thirdly, innovation governance in Korea is composed of three layer structure: (1) top level governance which is composed of two committee, three ministries and two agencies, (2) local level governance such as one innovation related offices and one center for regulatory reform, and (3) one category of agency for coordination as a regional platform.
