The accuracy of the finite element method depends upon the mesh that is used in the analysis. The temperature around the arc is higher than the melting point of the materials, and it drops sharply in the regions just away from the arc. This requires an extremely fine mesh in the confined high temperature region to predict the temperature accurately in that region. But the computational time increases with the fineness of mesh. Since fine mesh is required only around the arc source, adaptivity of the input mesh according to the position of the arc source is efficient. The remeshing technique gives a fine mesh in the high temperature region around the arc and a coarse mesh in other region at any time step. With this it is possible to achieve desired accuracy with less computation time. In this study a transient adaptive mesh, remeshing technique, is developed and calculated temperature for a sample problem.

포인트 클라우드는 2D 이미지를 3D 로 복원하고 표현하는 방법으로써 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 포인트 클라우드로만 표현할 경우 포인트와 포인트 사이에 빈 공간이 존재하여 실제 3D 물체와 차이가 존재한다. Mesh Reconstruction 은 보다 실제 3D 물체처럼 보이기 위해 포인트와 포인트를 이어 mesh 를 생성하는 방법인데 생성된 mesh 의 quality 는 texturing 을 거친 최종 결과에 큰 영향을 끼친다. 기존에 존재하는 이미지를 기반으로 생성된 포인트 클라우드의 Mesh Reconstruction 방법은 노이즈에 어느 정도 강한 면을 보이지만 최종 결과에서 잘 이어진 mesh 를 생성하지 못하고 hole 이 존재하는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에선 노이즈에 강하면서 최종 결과에서 잘 이어진 mesh 를 만들 수 있도록 하는 Mesh Reconstruction 알고리즘을 제안한다.

APro, developed in KAERI for the process-based total system performance assessment (TSPA) of deep geological disposal systems, performs finite element method (FEM)-based multiphysics analysis. In the FEM-based analysis, the mesh element quality influences the numerical solution accuracy, memory requirement, and computation time. Therefore, an appropriate mesh structure should be constructed before the mesh stability analysis to achieve an accurate and efficient process-based TSPA. A generic reference case of DECOVALEX-2023 Task F, which has been proposed for simulating stationary groundwater flow and time-dependent conservative transport of two tracers, was used in this study for mesh stability analysis. The relative differences in tracer concentration varying mesh structures were determined by comparing with the results for the finest mesh structure. For calculation efficiency, the memory requirements and computation time were compared. Based on the mesh stability analysis, an approach based on adaptive mesh refinement was developed to resolve the error in the early stage of the simulation time-period. It was observed that the relative difference in the tracer concentration significantly decreased with high calculation efficiency.

In order to estimate the mesh selectivity master curves and the optimum mesh size, experiments were made by the cover net method with the cod-ends of the five different the opening mesh sizes(51.2mm, 70.2mm, 77.6mm, 88.0mm and 111.3mm). After that 163 hauling were performed and there by investigated, on the training vessel Saebada in the Southern Korean Sea and East China Sea from June 1991 to August 1992. In this report, the mesh selectivity master curves were fitted by using logistic function(S=1/(1+exp super(-(aR+b))), R=(L-L sub(0))/(M-M sub(0)) and the optimum mesh sizes were estimated from each master curve. In this case, a and b are the selection parameters, M is the mesh size of each experimental cod-end. L is body length, L sub(0) and M sub(0) is the distance from the coordinate origine to intersection of linear regression between 25% and 50% selection length. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. Trachurus japonicus: Mesh selectivity master curve parameters: a and b were 2. 25, -4.73 respectively and optimum mesh size was estimated to be 79.3mm. 2. Trichiurus lepturus: Mesh selectivity master curve parameters: a and b were 0.81, -3.17 respectively and optimum mesh size was estimated to be 64.5mm. 3. Photololigo edulis: Mesh selectivity master curve parameters: a and b were 1.30m, -4.10 respectively and optimum mesh size was estimated to be 89.9mm. 4. Todarodes pacificus: Mesh selectivity master curve parameters: a and b were 1. 35, -3.45 respectively and optimum mesh size was estimated to be 89.4mm.

An engineering goal in vibration and noise professionals is to develope quiet machines at the preliminary design stage, and various numerical techniques such as FEM, SEA or BEM are one of the schemes toward the goal. In this paper, the research has been focused on the sensitivity effect of mesh sizes for FEM application so that the optimum size of the mesh that leads to engineering solution within acceptable computing time could be generated. In order to evaluate the mesh size effect, three important parameters have been examined : natural frequencies, number of modes and driving point mobility. First, several lower modes including the fundamental frequency of a 2-D plate structure have been calculated as mesh size changes. Since theoretical values of natural frequencies for a simple structure are known, the deviation between the numerical and theoretical values is obtained as a function of mesh size. The result shows that the error is no longer decreased if the mesh size becomes a quarter wavelength or smaller than that. Second, the mesh size effect is also investigated for the number of modes. For the frequency band up to 1.4 kHz, the structure should have 38 modes in total. As the mesh size reaches to the quarter wavelength, the total count in modes approaches to the same values. Third, a mobility function at the driving point is compared between SEA and FEM result. In SEA application, the mobility function is determined by the modal density and the mass of the structure. It is independent of excitation frequencies. When the mobility function is calculated from a wavelength to one-tenth of it, the mobility becomes constant if the mesh becomes a quarter wavelength or smaller. We can conclude that dynamic parameters, such as eigenvalues, mode count, and mobility function, can be correctly estimated, while saving the computing burden, if a quarter wavelength (.lambda./4) mesh is used. Therefore, (.lambda./4) mesh is recommended in structural vibration analysis.

In this paper we propose MA-CBRP, mesh adaptive algorithm for wireless mesh networks. MA-CBRP is a hybrid algorithm based on ad-hoc CBRP protocol. In MA-CBRP, the mesh router periodically sends the ANN message as like Hello-message in CBRP. ANN message allows to all clients periodically store a route towards the mesh-router and renewal information in their routing cache. While CBRP periodically reply Hello-message, MA-CBRP does not reply to achieve less overhead. After receiving ANN message, mesh client send JOIN message to mesh router when the route towards mesh router changed. at the same time Register the entry to mesh router, it can achieve to reduce overhead of control the route and shorten the time to find route. consequently, MA-CBRP shows 7% reduced overhead and shortened time to find route than CBRP with regardless of clients number.

Effect of morphology and granule size of crystalline D-sorbitol on texture of sugar-free chewing gum was investigated with different morphology of sorbitol such as a compact shaped P-type and a loose shaped S-type, and with different granule size such as 50 mesh, 80 mesh, and 100 mesh. The chewing gum including S-type sorbitol exhibited an increased flexibility and a decreased hardness as compared with that including P-type sorbitol. S-type sorbitol was chosen as a solid phase of sugar-free chewing gum because the consumer preferred a chewing gum with high flexibility and low hardness. The flexibility and hardness of chewing gum including S-type sorbitol were determined to be optimum at 80 mesh of the sorbitol size. The flexibility of the chewing gum including 80 mesh S-type sorbitol increased but the hardness decreased with increasing temperature.

A well-designed mesh shape of the cable net is of essential significance to achieve high performance of cable-network antenna reflectors. This paper is concerned with the mesh design problem for such antenna reflector structure. Two new methods for creating the topological forms of the cable net are first presented. Among those, the cyclosymmetry method is useful to generate different polygon-faceted meshes, while the topological mapping method is suitable for acquiring triangle-faceted meshes with different mesh grid densities. Then, the desired spatial paraboloidal mesh geometrical configuration in the state of static equilibrium is formed by applying a simple mesh generation approach based on the force density method. The main contribution of this study is that a general technical guide for how to create the connectivities between the nodes and members in the cable net is provided from the topological point of view. With the new idea presented in this paper, multitudes of mesh configurations with different net patterns can be sought by a certain rule rather than by empiricism, which consequently gives a valuable technical reference for the mesh design of this type of cable-network structures in the engineering.

In the field of design and manufacturing, there are many problems with managing dynamic states of three-dimensional (3D) objects. In order to solve these problems, the four-dimensional (4D) mesh model and its modeling system have been proposed. The 4D mesh model is defined as a 4D object model that is bounded by tetrahedral cells, and can represent spatio-temporal changes of a 3D object continuously. The 4D mesh model helps to solve dynamic problems of 3D models as geometric problems. However, the construction of the 4D mesh model is limited on the time-series 3D voxel data based method. This method is memory-hogging and requires much computing time. In this research, we propose a new method of constructing the 4D mesh model that derives from the 3D mesh model with continuous rigid body movement. This method is realized by making a swept shape of a 3D mesh model in the fourth dimension and its tetrahedralization. Here, the rigid body movement is a screwed movement, which is a combination of translational and rotational movement.

A conventional flame type gas combustion major portion of heat is transferred to the body by convection due to small radiant ability of the gas flame. Increasing the radiation component of heat flux in the combustion zone allows to augment the efficiency of gas utilization. Such effect can be reached by using radiative gas burner applied to metal mesh combustion. Basically the gas radiant burner consists of metallic mesh of high heat resisting steels. In terms of this regards, we have made the burner consisted of metal mesh and measured the radiative flame stability of natural gas/air mixture on the metal mesh burner. The pressure loss through the metal mesh is defined by pressure-velocity slope. The more increased the pressure-velocity slope of the metal mesh is, the wider the stable zone of radiave flame on the metal mesh burner is. And the augmentation of mixture flowrate through the metal mesh make narrow the permissible range of equivalence ratio.
