Optimization of engine desist and operation parameters using a genetic algorithm was demonstrated for direct injection diesel engine combustion. A micro genetic algorithm and a modified KIVA-3V code were used for the analysis and optimization of the engine combustion. At each generation of the optimization step the micro genetic algorithm generated five groups of parameter sets, and the five cases of KIVA-3V analysis were to be performed either in series or in parallel. The micro genetic algorithm code was also parallelized by using MPI programming, and a multi-CPU parallel supercomputer was used to speed up the optimization process by four times. An example case for a fixed engine speed was performed with six parameters of intake swirl ratio, compression ratio, fuel injection included angle, injector hole number, SOI, and injection duration. A simultaneous optimization technique for the whole range of engine speeds would be suggested for further studies.

Flow mechanism of contractive and dilative motion is numerically investigated to obtain a propulsive force in highly viscous fluid, which is the simulation of the propulsion in micro-organisms. The computing code for the analysis of complicated motions is developed with cell-centered unstructured grid scheme. The developed code is validated by the well-known problems of cavity flow and oscillating wall. The validated code is applied to the contractive and dilative motion in narrow tube. The computed results are compared with nodal points scheme. By the present results, it is found that propulsive force can be obtained by the contractive and dilative motion through simulation with the developed code.

In this paper, we present a transformation method of source code from a POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface) based source code into an OSEK/VDX (Offene Systeme und deren Schnittstellen fur die Elektronik in Kraftfahrzeugen/Vehicle Distributed eXecutive) source code. As the electronic parts of automobile systems increase, the use of embedded software in automobile systems is also growing. Accordingly, many electronic systems are designed in automobile system with OSEK/VDX. Otherwise, one of the major problems of embedded software would be portability to other OS's. To enhance the portability and interoperability of embedded software, we propose a source code transformation method from POSIX to OSEK/VDX based on API (Application Programming Interface) translation method. Considering the characteristics of the OSEK/VDX which uses OIL (OSEK/VDX Implementation Language) standard, transformation process is performed with source code transformation and OIL code generation. For the validity of the proposed method, the transformation experiment is given using Micro-C OS II and OSEK/VDX with XC167CI micro-controller.

This paper introduces that domestic animals can be effectively administered with an individual recognition system. The system was constructed in original code transmitter, receiver, personal computer, micro-processor, and RS485 telecommunications module. In the individual recognition system. the signal including encoded information about a milk-cow was transmitted from an original code transmitter to a micro-processor through RS485 telecommunications module. The transmitted signal was successfully displayed in a personal computer.

A new Layered Manufacturing(LM) system, named PaperMill, is developed applying micro milling technology. A micro endmill(127 11m in diameter) is introduced as the cutter of build material. The selected build material for this system is an adhesive-coated paper roll which provides advantages such as good bonding between layers, machinability, and low material cost. A 3-axis CNC controller and three step-motors are used for the movement of X-Y-Z table of the system. For simplicity of the control of mechanism, the control system for feeding the paper roll is uncoupled from CNC controller. Two code converters are developed for the toolpath generation of the new LM system. The NC converter generates a set of NC codes for PaperMill using commercial CAM software while the SML converter generates an NC code from Quickslice's SML format. The NC codes generated from the converters consist of a series of profile data and trigger code for paper feeding. Two sample gears were fabricated to prove the concept of the system, which shown that the dimensional errors of the fabricated gears is under 3.4 percent.

The majority of research that has been performed on cracking potential of concrete by shrinkage has assumed that concrete acts as a homogeneous material. However, with this approach, it is not able to evaluate the micro-cracking behavior in concrete due to autogenous shrinkage under unrestrained boundary condition (free boundary condition) nor to understand the cracking behavior properly because of the heterogeneous nature of concrete. To better understand the micro-cracking behavior of concrete induced by autogenous shrinkage, series of experiments were performed measuring the length change and acoustic emission energy. As an analytical approach, this research uses an object oriented finite element analysis code (OOF code) to simulate the behavior of the concrete on a meso-scale. The concrete images used in the simulations were directly obtained from mortar samples. From the experiments and simulation results, it was able to better understand the micro-cracking behaviour of concrete due to shrinking of paste phase and internal restraint by aggregates.

A concatenated coding system using a binary code as the inner code and a nonbinary code as the outer code has been constructed for the purpose of error correction. The complexity of a conventional coding system grows exponentially as the code length of a block code becomes longer. To reduce the complexity for ling code, an effective communication system has been proposed by cascading two codes-binary and norbinary codes. Using a parallel-to-serial circuit and a serial-to-parallel circuit, the concatenated coding system has been designed and constructed by empolying a (7,3) burst error correcting code as the inner code and a (7,3) Reed-Solomon code as the outer code. This system has been simulated and tested using a micro-computer. For the (49,9) concatenated coding system, the error probability of the channel has been evaluated and compared to different coding systems.

Flow mechanism of contractive and dilative motion is numerically investigated to obtain a propulsive force in highly viscous fluid. An axisymmetric code is developed with unstructured grid system based on cell-centered scheme. It is validated by comparing with the results of Stokes approximation for the problem of uniform flow past a sphere in low Reynolds number(R$_{n}$=1). The validated code is applied to the simulation of contractive and dilative periodic motion of body whose results are quantitatively compared with the two dimensional case. In order to investigate the grid dependency, two different grids are applied to the present computations. The present study provides key information for the development of an axisymmetric Micro-hydro-robot.t.

This paper presents the transient performance analysis of a micro-hydro Pelton turbine for the osmotic power generation using the commercially available computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, ANSYS CFX. The detailed flow field in the micro Pelton turbine with a single-jet is investigated by the CFD code adopted in the present study. Predicted characteristic curves agree fairly well with measured data for a prototype Pelton turbine over the normal operating conditions. The computational analysis method presented herein can be effectively applied to the hydraulic design optimization process of general purpose Pelton turbine runners.

A Numerical simulation for the propulsion of axisymmetric body by contractive and dilative motion is carried out. The present analysis shows that a propulsive force can be obtained in highly viscous fluid by a contractive and dilative motion of axisymmetric body. An axisymmetric analysis code is developed with unstructured grid system for the simulation of complicated motion and geometry. The developed code is validated by comparing with the results of stokes approximation with the problem of uniform flow past a sphere in low Reynolds number($R_n=1$). The validated code is applied to the simulation of contractive and dilative motion of body. The simulation is extended to the analysis of waving surface with projecting part for finding out the difference of hydrodynamic performance according to the variation of waving surface configuration. The present study will be the basic research for the development of the propulsor of an axisymmetric micro-hydro-machine.
