In the present study, the total hydrodynamic pressure exerted by the fluid on walls of rectangular tanks due to horizontal excitations of different frequencies, is investigated by pressure based finite element method. Fluid within the tanks is invisid, compressible and its motion is considered to be irrotational and it is simulated by two dimensional eight-node isoparametric. The walls of the tanks are assumed to be rigid. The total hydrodynamic pressure increases with the increase of exciting frequency and has maximum value when the exciting frequency is equal to the fundamental frequency. However, the hydrodynamic pressure has decreasing trend for the frequency greater than the fundamental frequency. Hydrodynamic pressure at the free surface is independent to the height of fluid. However, the pressure at base and mid height of vertical wall depends on height of fluid. At these two locations, the hydrodynamic pressure decreases with the increase of fluid depth. The depth of undisturbed fluid near the base increases with the increase of depth of fluid when it is excited with fundamental frequency of fluid. The sloshing of fluid with in the tank increases with the increase of exciting frequency and has maximum value when the exciting frequency is equal to the fundamental frequency of liquid. However, this vertical displacement is quite less when the exciting frequency is greater than the fundamental frequency.

In order to make full color cholesteric displays, color filter-less R, G, B sub-pixel structured cholesteric LC cells have been studied. To make R, G, B colors, UV induced pitch variant chiral dopant was added to cholesteric LC mixtures. The concentration of the photo-sensitive chiral dopant was adjusted so that the initial state showed blue color and the color was changed from blue to green and red with increase of UV irradiation to the cholesteric cells. To prevent the mixing of R, G, B reflective sub-pixel liquid crystals, separation walls were formed using negative photo resister in boundary area between sub-pixels, Through the optimization of the material concentrations and UV irradiation condition, vivid R, G, B colors were achieved.

A reinforced concrete water tank is a typical functional liquid storage structure and cracks are the greatest threat to the liquid storage structure. Tanks are readily cracked due to seismic activity, thereby leading to the leakage of the stored liquid and a loss of function. In order to study the effect of cracks on liquid storage tanks, self-healing and leakage tests for bending cracks and through cracks in the walls of a reinforced concrete water tank were conducted. Material performance tests were also performed. The self-healing performance of bending cracks in a lentic environment and through cracks in a lotic environment were tested, thereby the self-healing width of bending micro-cracks in the lentic environment in the short term were determined. The through cracks had the capacity for self-healing in the lotic environment was found. The leakage characteristics of the bending cracks and through cracks were tested with the actual water head on the crack. The effects on liquid leakage of the width of bending cracks, the depth of the compression zone, and the acting head were determined. The relationships between the leakage rate and time with the height of the water head were analyzed. Based on the tests, the relationships between the crack characteristics and self-healing as well as the leakage were obtained. Thereby the references for water tank structure design and grading earthquake damage were provided.

건플랜트 내부의 주요 시설물인 원통형 액체저장탱크에 지진 하중이 작용하면 탱크 벽체에 좌굴이 발생하여 큰 손실을 초래할 수 있다. 탱크 구조물 설계시 좌굴에 대한 허용응력을 규정한 국내 기준은 일관성이 부족하고 근거가 미약하여 주로 국외의 API 650, BS EN 1998-4:2006, 뉴질랜드 기준 등을 차용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 서로 다른 형상 비를 갖는 탱크 구조물에 대해 응답스펙트럼해석을 수행하여 유체 동압력을 산정한 후 재료 및 기하비선형을 고려한 비선형 좌굴해석을 수행하여 축방향 허용좌굴응력을 산정하고 국외 기준과의 비교를 통해 적절한 국내 기준을 제안하였다.

Hydroelastic effects on sloshing phenomena in a rectangular tank are numerically investigated. The dimension of the tank is $1000mm{\times}600mm$, and the filling ratio of water is 20% of tank height. One of the side walls of tank is assumed to be flexible. The tank is excited into sway motion with amplitude of 100mm and frequency of 0.53Hz that is first natural frequency of water inside the tank. Prediction results for time histories of pressure and displacement of flexible and rigid walls are compared to quantitatively assess hydroelastic effects on sloshing phenomena.

This study presents a new idea of liquid desiccant dehumidifier with extended surface to improve the compactness. Extended surface is inserted between vertical cooling tubes, and the liquid desiccant flows down along the tube walls and the extended surface as well. Though the extended surface contributes to the increase in the mass transfer area, the effect tends to be limited because less conductive non-metallic materials need to be applied due to the high corrosiveness of liquid desiccant. To analyze the effects of the extended surface insertion, mathematical modelling and numerical integration are performed for the heat and mass transfer in the liquid desiccant dehumidifier. The results show that, though the liquid desiccant on the extended surface is heated due to the moisture absorption, the temperature can be maintained by periodic mixing at the contact points between the tube and the extended surface with the liquid desiccant stream from the tube side at a relatively low temperature. This implies the absorption heat from the extended surface side can be removed effectively by mixing, which leads to a substantial improvement of the dehumidification in the liquid desiccant dehumidifier with extended surface. When the interval of the extended surface, $p_e/L$, is less than 0.1, the dehumidification is shown to increase by more than two times compared with that without extended surface.

In the present wort the Laser-induced Fluorescence (LIF) technique and Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) have been combined to measure the temperature distribution across a micro-scale liquid layer as a direct and non-invasive method. Only the fluorescent light emitted from a very thin volume around a focal plane can be selectively detected, and it enables us to measure the liquid temperatures even at the close vicinity of the walls. As an experimental verification, a test section consists of two flat plates (for heating and cooling, respectively) separated by about 240 microns was made, and the methanol mixed with a temperature-sensitive dye, Rhodamine B, was filled in the gap between them. The measured temperature distribution across the gap showed good linearity, which is a typical characteristic of conduction heat transfer through a thin liquid layer. In result, the CLSM-LIF technique proposed in the present study was found to be a promising method to measure the local temperatures in the liquid flow field in microfluidic devices.

We developed a new device structure using anisotropic phase separation from liquid crystal (LC) and polymer composite materials using UV intensity variation and polymer wetting properties. In the device, the LC molecules are isolated in pixels where LCs are surrounded by the inter-pixel vertical polymer walls and the horizontal polymer films on the upper substrate. These devices show very good mechanical stability against external pressure. The electro-optic characteristics and the mechanical stability of the devices are discussed in view of the flexible display applications.

액정표시소자(Liquid Crystal Device)가 흑백의 문자표시소자로 개발된 이래로, 설계 기술 및 제조기술의 발전으로 그 응용분야도 현저히 확대퇴고 있다. 그 응용분야 가운데 노트북 컴퓨터, 휴대전화, IMT-2000, 전자책(e-book)등 최근 현저한 진보를 보이고 있는 정보통신기기들은 그 휴대성 때문에 좀더 가볍고, 얇으며, 소비전력이 적은 디스플레이 소자를 요구하고 있다. 이러한 조건을 만족시키기 위해 무겁고 전력소모가 많은 배면조명을 사용하지 않는 반사형 액정표시소자 연구가 활발하다. (중략)

Peristaltic mass transfer of fluid in a channel with standing wall oscillations is analyzed. Averaged nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations of motion are examined for a wide range of Reynolds numbers and external pressure drops. Nonpropogating wall oscillations with relatively big amplitudes essentially increase the liquid flow. Most effective intensifying of mass transfer occurred for low Reynolds numbers.
