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.

Background: Resorbable devices have recently been adopted in the field of orthognathic surgery with controversies about their postoperative skeletal stability. Hence, we determined the long-term skeletal stability of unsintered hydroxyapatite/poly-ʟ-lactic acid (HA/PLLA) mesh for osteofixation of mandibular sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO), and compared it with that of titanium miniplate. Methods: Patients were divided into resorbable mesh and titanium miniplate fixation groups. A comparative study of the change in the mandibular position was performed with preoperative, 1-day, 6-month, and 2-year postoperative lateral cephalograms. Results: At postoperative 6 months-compared with postoperative 1 day, point B (supra-mentale) was significantly displaced anteriorly in the titanium-fixation group. Moreover, at postoperative 2 years-compared with postoperative 6 months, point B was significantly displaced inferiorly in the titanium-fixation. However, the HA/PLLA mesh-fixation group did not show any significant change with respect to point B postoperatively. Conclusions: The HA/PLLA mesh-fixation group demonstrated superior long-term skeletal stability with respect to the position of mandible, when compared with the titanium-fixation group.

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.

Multicast Mesh based Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs) provide efficient data transmission in energy restraint areas without a fixed infrastructure. In this paper, the authors present an improved version of protocol SLIMMER developed by them earlier, and name it SLIMMER-SN. Most mesh-based protocols suffer from redundancy; however, the proposed protocol controls redundancy through the concept of forwarding nodes. The proposed protocol uses remaining energy of a node to decide its energy efficiency. For measuring stability, a new metric called Stability of Node (SN) has been introduced which depends on transmission range, node density and node velocity. For data transfer, a weighted cost function selects the most energy efficient nodes / most stable nodes or a weighted combination of both. This makes the node selection criteria more dynamic. The protocol works in two steps: (1) calculating SN and (2) using SN value in the weighted cost function for selection of nodes. The study compared the proposed protocol, with other mesh-based protocols PUMA and SLIMMER, based on packet delivery ratio (PDR), throughput, end-to-end delay and average energy consumption under different simulation conditions. Results clearly demonstrate that SLIMMER-SN outperformed both PUMA and SLIMMER.

This study is to confirm the deformation of blade when the location of stacking is moving. Also, it desire to determine the most stable location of stacking from the analysis. In the previous study, it is Known that moving the location of stacking is not influence to the aerodynamic performance. In this study SolidWorks premium 2010 SP4 is used for structure analysis. In reference blade and other 3 model analysis, the two mesh type is used, one is standard mesh type in SolidWorks, the other is curvature-based mesh type. The result of curvature-based mesh type is more stable than one of the standard mesh type regardless of mesh size, the number of mesh. The deformation of blade tip is the smallest, when the location of stacking is identical to the center of gravity of the blade section profile. So, if possible is design, this study recommends that the location of stacking is identical to the center of gravity the blade.

A tetrahedral mesh generation scheme using 3-D operators has been presented. The proposed scheme employs new 3-D operators such as rearranging and modified finishing operators in addition to the previous trimming, wedging, digging, splitting and finishing operators. These new operators have been introduced in order to increase the stability of mesh generation process. Check processings with surrounded element edges and faces have also been optimized by employing a searching algorithm. Sample meshes are constructed to demonstrate the mesh generating capability of the proposed algorithm.

Silver nanowire (AgNW) random-meshes with high transmittance, low sheet resistance, and high oxidation stability and flexibility were fabricated using solution-based processes. The random-mesh structure was obtained by forming bubbles whose sizes and densities were controlled using a corona treatment of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. To reduce the sheet resistance of the fabricated AgNW electrode, a washing process using ethanol solution was performed. In addition, nickel (Ni) was coated on AgNW to improve resistance to oxidation. The effects of corona treatment and Ni-coating on the transmittance, sheet resistance, oxidation stability, and flexibility of the AgNW electrodes were investigated.

이 논문에서는 이기종 무선 메쉬 네트워크망에서 상호 연동성 및 메쉬 노드의 효율적인 IP 이동성을 제공하기 위한 다중홉 ARP 기법을 제안한다. 이기종 무선 메쉬 네트워크는 무선 메쉬 네트워크를 기본으로 하는 백본 무선 메쉬 네트워크와 non-무선 메쉬 네트워크 구조를 기반으로 하는 클라이언트 무선 메쉬 네트워크. 이 두 개의 네트워크가 이동성을 가지고 결합된 하이브리드 무선 메쉬 네트워크로 구분된다. 하이브리드 무선 메쉬 네트워크에서 두 네트워크 연결 시 서로 다른 라우팅 프로토콜을 사용할 경우 두 프로토콜의 접점인 게이트웨이에서 프로토콜 변환처리를 병행해야 하는 과부하 문제가 심각하게 발생한다. 이 논문에서는 서로 다른 라우팅 프로토콜을 병행하여 사용할 경우 발생하는 과부하 문제를 해결하기 위해서 다중홉 ARP 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 효율적인 연동을 위해 L3 라우팅 프로토콜로 다중홉 ARP 기법을 설계 구축하여 실험을 통해 이동 메쉬 노드의 수가 증가하는 경우와 홉수가 증가 시 패킷전달 비율을 통해 노드의 신뢰성과 안정성을 보장하였다.

본 연구에서는 일반적인 쏘일네일링이 야기할 수 있는 환경문제를 줄이고, 경제성과 시공성을 향상하기 위해 토목섬유망 네일의 사면 적용성을 수치해석을 통해 평가하였다. 이를 위해 일반 네일과 토목섬유망 네일의 현장 인발시험을 수행하여 각 네일의 인발특성을 분석하였다. 또한 유한차분법을 이용하여 수치모델링의 적합성을 검증하고, 네일과 지반조건에 대한 매개변수를 선정하여 사면 안정성 평가를 위한 민감도분석을 수행하였다. 추가로 실무에서 사면안정해석을 위해 널리 사용되고 있는 한계평형법을 이용한 분석을 수행하였다. 연구 결과, 직경이 동일하다면 토목섬유망 네일로 보강한 사면과 일반네일로 보강한 사면은 안정성 측면에서 큰 차이가 없었다. 따라서 일반 네일로 보강된 사면만큼의 안정성 확보가 가능하며, 경제성과 시공성이 뛰어난 토목섬유망 네일이 사면보강을 위해 효율적으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The finite element mesh approach for tool surface description is applied effectively to analyze sheet metal stamping processes. To improve the mesh quality and the stability of the mesh generation process, a gybrid method based on the grid approach and the Delaunay triangulation is proposed in the present work. In the present study, a general method for the mathematical description of arbitrarily shaped tool surface is proposed by introducing the parametric surface approach. A polynomial function employed to describe the base parametric surface and the boundary curves are defined to describe arbitrary three-dimensional trimmed surfaces. To verify the validity of the proposed method, automatic mesh generation is carried out for some shosen complicated parts including actual automotive panel.
