This study aims to investigate the effects of partially distributed loads on the dynamic behaviour of steel parabolic arches by using the elasto-plastic finite element model based on the Von Mises yield criteria and the Prandtl-Reuss How rule. For this purpose, the vertical and the radial load conditions were considered as a distributed loading and the loading range is varied from 40% to 100% of arch span. Normal arch and arch with initial deflection were studied. The initial deflection of arch was assumed by the sinusoidal motile of ${\omega}_i\;=\;{\\omega}_O$ sin ($n{\pi}x/L$). Several numerical examples were tested considering symmetric initial deflection when the maximum initial deflection at the apex is fixed as L/1000. The analysis resluts showed that the maximum deflection at the apex of arch was occurred when 70% of arch span was loaded. The maximum deflection at the quarter point of arch span was occurred when 50% of arch span was loaded. It is known that the optimal rise to span ratio between 0.2 and 0.3 when the vertical or radial distributed load is applied. It is verified that the influence of initial deflection of radial load case is more serious than that of vertical load case.

In this study, a method for increasing the initial water supply was employed to protect the water injection nozzle by the flame when supplying the water to the steam generator. During the initial steam generator test, the flow rate was controlled by using the only venturi, but cooling water was not supplied to the combustion chamber at the beginning of combustion, thereby resulting in damage to the water nozzle. To solve this problem, a venturi and an orifice were configured in parallel to increase the initial supply flow rate to form a differential pressure between the water manifold and the combustion chamber. Venturi and orifice supply sequences were established through the water flow tests, and combustion tests were conducted for final verification. Consequently, a continuous supply of the cooling water at the beginning of combustion was achieved, and the experiment was successfully performed without damaging the cooling water nozzle.

The flow characteristics in micro shock tube are investigated experimentally. Studies were carried out using a stainless steel micro shock tube. Shock and expansion wave was measured using 8 pressure sensors. The initial pressure ratio was varied from 4.3 to 30.5, and the diameter of tube was also changed from 3mm to 6mm. Diaphragm conditions were varied using two types of diaphragms. The results obtained show that the shock strength in the tube becomes stronger for an increase in the initial pressure ratio and diameter of tube. For the thinner diaphragm, the highest shock strength was found among varied diaphragm condition. Shock attenuation was highly influenced by the diameter of tube.

The purpose of this study is to predict remodeling timing of Permanent Rental Housing through historic data and cash flow analysis. For this aim, the study has estimated cash flow of Permanent Rental Housing considering initial construction costs, government supporting fund, rental incomes and maintenance expenses. Based on the expected cash flow analysis, reasonable remodeling timing is predicted for Permanent Rental Housing. The results of this study are as follows: (1) it is analyzed that building a8e of about 27 years is the best time for remodeling because cumulative surplus amounts reach maximum level, (2) it is required that remodeling should be made before 34 years of age roughly because cumulative surplus amounts change into minus from this time.

The two-dimensional incompressible flow of a linear viscoelastic fluid we considered in this research has rapidly oscillating initial conditions which contain both the large scale and small scale information. In order to grasp this double-scale phenomenon of the complex flow, a multiscale analysis method is developed based on the mathematical homogenization theory. For the incompressible flow of a linear viscoelastic Maxwell fluid, a well-posed multiscale system, including averaged equations and cell problems, is derived by employing the appropriate multiple scale asymptotic expansions to approximate the velocity, pressure and stress fields. And then, this multiscale system is solved numerically using the pseudospectral algorithm based on a time-splitting semi-implicit influence matrix method. The comparisons between the multiscale solutions and the direct numerical simulations demonstrate that the multiscale model not only captures large scale features accurately, but also reflects kinetic interactions between the large and small scale of the incompressible flow of a linear viscoelastic fluid.

Three-dimensional flow over the sand dunes have been studied numerically by using Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) method. In the direction of initial flow and span direction cyclic boundary conditions are imposed for velocity and pressure. The movement of the sand dune which is formed by converging wind direction has been investigated. The numerical method employed in this study can be divided into three parts: (i) calculation of the air flow over the sand dune using standard MAC method with a generalized coordinate system; (ii) estimation of the sand transfer caused by the flow through the friction; (iii) determination of the shape of the sand surface. Since the computational area has been changed due to step (iii), (i)-(iii) are repeated. The simulated dune, which has initially elliptic cross section, extends at the converging direction, which is known as linear dunes.

In this work, an effort is made to investigate the behavior of a chip, from its initial flow to its final breaking stage. The expression for chip flow in grooved tools is verified analytically using FEM. Cutting parameters like velocity and depth of cut have a profound influence on chip flow behavior. Chip curling increases and, for a given tool geometry, effectiveness of the groove increases with increasing depth of cut. The feasibility of tool design using FEM simulations is also demonstrated. Optimization of tool geometry results in better chip control.

Many LNG ships will be constructed in Korea and the demand of safety valves is increasing. The most important performance of the developed safety relief valves for LNG ship is flow capacity. Flow capacity tests for 8 sizes of developed safety valves were conducted in the high pressure gas flow standard system in KRISS. The initial spring force adjustment was important for setting pressure of the safety valve. The procedure of data reduction and evaluation of the safety valve performance are suggested. This procedure was approved by French Bureau Veritas and Lloyd's Register.

We studied the cross-sectional profiles of deformed thermoplastics in hot embossing process and compared with melt flow index for various embossing conditions such as embossing temperature, embossing pressure and initial thickness of the thermoplastics. The fastest embossing times for complete penetration of the cavities were obtained at temperature greater than $60^{\circ}C$ above glass transition temperature (Tg). When the melt flow index of polymer is low, the penetration ratio does not become large even if the embossing pressure increases. The complete occupation of the cavities was easier obtained with high melt flow index polymer than low melt flow index polymer at the same process condition. We believe these results can be very useful for optimizing nanostructured hot embossing also known nanoimprinting process conditions.

A fluid transient analysis for the propellant flow in a monopropellant propulsion system is conducted using the method of characteristics (MOC). Algebraic simultaneous equations method and Clamor's rule method utilized to drive the compatible and characteristic equations are reviewed to understand MOC more extensively. The identification of fluid transient phenomena of propulsion system of Koreasat 1 is carried out through parametric studies. Also this work describes the reason that the propulsion system of Koreasat 1 has no orifice to control flow transients or to limit the initial hydrazine flow rate for the first-pulse firing.
