In order to save time and efforts in generating finite element meshes in irregular houndaries of domains, it is needed to develop an automatic mesh-generator which can hoth promote the accuracy of solutions and reduce the run-time in operating finite ele- ment models. In this study, the advancing front technique of triangular mesh generation and the transforming technique from triangular meshes to quadrilateral meshes were used to de- velop a computer program for the automatic triangular and quadrilateral meshes in the mixed shape. Furthermore, to enhance the quadrilateral mesh quality, the techniques of Laplancian smoothing and interior mesh modification were employed. The mesh genera- tor was applied to evaluate its applicability to irregular and complex geometries such as Nakdong river bay. In has hoen shown that the automatic mesh generator developed is capable of automatically generating meshes for irreguiar and complex geometries with high qualities of meshes and with the simple input data of arbitrarily specified nodal spacing in bound- aries.

We have developed the three dimensional mesh generator for three dimensional process simulation using the FEM(Finite Element Method). Tetrahedron element construct the presented three dimensional mesh, which is suitable for the simulation of three dimensional behavior of the LOCOS. The simulation of thermal oxidation is one of the problem in scale downed semiconductor processes. As three dimensional simulators use the huge size of the memory, we use the efficient method that generates the new nodes inside the growing oxide and removes the nodes nearby the SiO2/Si interface in silicon. The resented three dimensional mesh generator was designed to be used in various process simulations, for instance thermal oxidation, silicidation, nitridation, ion implantation, diffusion, and so on.

An automatic quadrilateral mesh generator for large deformation finite element analysis such as metal forming simulation was developed. The NURBS interpolation method is used for modeling arbitrary 2-D free surface. This mesh generation technique is the modified paving algorithm, which is an advancing front technique with element-by-element resolving method for paving boundary intersection problem. The mesh density for higher analysis accuracy and less analysis time can be easily controlled with high-density points, maximum and minimum element size. A couple of application to large deformation finite element analysis is given as an example, which shows versatility and applicability of the proposed approach and the developed mesh generator for large deformation finite element analysis.

This paper presents optimal design of direct-driven PM wind generator using MADS (Mesh Adaptive Direct Search). Optimal design of the direct-driven PM Wind Generator, combined with MADS and FEM (Finite Element Method), has been performed to maximize the Annual Energy Production (AEP) over the whole wind speed characterized by the statistical model of the wind speed distribution. In particular, the newly applied MADS contributes to reducing the computation time when compared with Genetic Algorithm (GA) implemented with the parallel computing method.

An efficient automatic mesh generator suitable for the harsh model, which contains abrupt regions and thin layers, is implemented. It adopts two kinds of node placement scheme. In the beginning, the initial nodes on the boundary are generated automatically by an efficient boundary node generation scheme. And then the inner nodes are placed using nodal spacing value technique repeatedly from the initial mesh to final mesh. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is verified by a thin film micro-strip line modeling, where the final mesh contains no sliver elements.

Optimizing the design of large-scale electric machines based on nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) requires longer computation time than other applications of FEA, mainly due to the huge size of the machines. This paper addresses a new region decision method (RDM) with mesh adaptive direct search (MADS) for the optimal design of wind generators in order to reduce the computation time. The validity of the proposed algorithm is evaluated using Rastrigin and Goldstein-Price benchmark function. Moreover, the algorithm is employed for the optimal design of a 5.6MW interior permanent magnet synchronous generator to minimize the torque ripple. Additionally, mechanical stress analysis as well as electromagnetic field analysis have been implemented to prevent breakdown caused by large centrifugal forces of the modified design.

Ozone has been widely applied to many industrial fields because of its strong oxidation effects. Therefore, the studies have been progressed for the effective and high concentration of one generation. The silent or surface discharge have been mainly used for high concentration ozone generation until now. But these two types of ozone generators have shortcomings to be improved. In this study, the ozone generator which improved the shortcomings of above two type of ozone generators was proposed and manufactured for high concentration ozone generation. And the proposed ozone generator could generate the surface and barrier discharge simultaneously. For this purpose, a mesh type discharge electrodes were proposed and the experiments were fulfilled as a function of the widths and spacings of mesh electrodes and gap spacings between the dielectric barrier and mesh electrode. When the width of mesh electrode[WM] and spacing of mesh electrode[SM] are 0.3[mm] and 0.8[mm] respectively, the maximum ozone concentration of 2.96[vol%] was obtained at 5.6[kV], 830[mA], gap spacing (S)=0.65[mm].

A point-mesh type corona system has been well used as a ionic wind blower. However this type corona system suffers from its lower ionic wind generation, because of its lower on-set and breakdown voltages of its very sharp needle point corona electrode. This means that the point corona electrode must act both as an effective ion-generator and a very higher electric field producer in the discharge airgap in order to generate higher ionic wind velocity. In this paper, a cylinder-mesh type discharge system as a ionic wind generator is proposed and investigated. The cylindrical corona electrode can produce many ions from its sharpened edge, and the corona on-set and breakdown voltages are very higher than those of the needle point corona electrode. As a result, this type cylindrical corona electrode might generate a higher ionic wind than the needle point corona electrode.
