We consider the problem of architecting a reliable content delivery system across an overlay network using TCP connections as the transport primitive. We first argue that natural designs based on store-and-forward principles that tightly couple TCP connections at intermediate end-systems impose fundamental performance limitations, such as dragging down all transfer rates in the system to the rate of the slowest receiver. In contrast, the ROMA architecture we propose incorporates the use of loosely coupled TCP connections together with fast forward error correction techniques to deliver a scalable solution that better accommodates a set of heterogeneous receivers. The methods we develop establish chains of TCP connections, whose expected performance we analyze through equation-based methods. We validate our analytical findings and evaluate the performance of our ROMA architecture using a prototype implementation via extensive Internet experimentation across the PlanetLab distributed testbed.

As a first step toward a complete CFD-CSD coupling for helicopter rotor load analysis, the present study attempts to loosely couple a CFD code with a source-double panel method. The far-field wake effects were calculated by a time-marching free vortex wake method and were implemented into the CFD module via field velocity approach. Unlike the lifting line method, the air loads correction process is not trivial for the source-doublet panel method. The air loads correction process between the source-doublet method and CFD is newly suggested in this work and the computation results are validated against available data for well-known hovering flight conditions.

Generally, the events in nature have multi-disciplinary characteristics. To solve this problems, these days loosely coupled methods are widely applied because of advantage of solvers which are already developed and well proved. Those solvers use different mesh system, so transformation and mapping of data are vital in the field of fluid-structure interaction(FSI). In this paper, the interpolation of deformation which is used globally and compactly supported radial basis functions(RBF), and mapping of force which use principle of virtual work are examined for computing time and accuracy to compare ability with simple 3-D problem. As the results, interpolation scheme of compactly supported radial basis functions are useful to interpolation and mapping for large-scale airplane in FSI with a k-dimensional tree(kd-tree) which is a space-partitioning data structure for organizing points in a k-dimensional space.

For the safety of aircraft and accuracy of bombs, many companies have researched the new concept of adaptive kit to flying-bombs. For the long distance flying, it's normally used deployed high-aspect ratio wing because of limited volume. The probabilities of large elastic deformation and flutter are increased due to decreased stiffness of high-aspect ratio wing. In this paper, computational fluid dynamics and computational structure dynamics interaction methodology are applied for prediction of aerodynamic characteristics. FLUENT and ABAQUS are used to calculate fluid and structural dynamics. Code-bridge was made base on the compactly supported radial basis function to execute interpolation and mapping. There are some differences between rigid body and fluid-structure interaction analysis which are results of aerodynamics characteristics due to structural deformation. Small successive vibration was observed by interaction.
