The slip effect from the molecular interaction between fluid particles and solid surface atoms plays a key role in microscale fluid transport and heat transfer since the relative importance of surface forces increases as the size of the system decreases to the microscale. There exist two models to describe the slip effect: the Maxwell slip model in which the slip correction is made on the basis of the degree of shear stress near the wall surface and the Langmuir slip model based on a theory of adsorption of gases on solids. In this study, as the first step towards developing a general purpose numerical code of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations for computational simulations of microscale fluid flow and heat transfer, two slip models are implemented into a finite element numerical code of a simplified equation. In addition, a pressure-driven gas flow in a microchannel is investigated by the numerical code in order to validate numerical results.

복잡한 산악지형과 숲이 있는 나로 우주센터의 미규모 바람장을 MUKLIMO를 사용하여 모의하였다. 지형과 나무가 있을 때 모델의 민감도를 실험하기 위하여 각종 초기조건하에 수치모의를 수행하였다. 실험결과 나무는 평지 위에 서는 큰 영향을 미치나 언덕지형에서는 큰 영향을 미치지 못함을 알았다. 이러한 실험결과를 이용하여 나로 우주센터의 10m 상공에서의 미규모 바람장과 또, 발사장의 건설전후의 바람장도 모의하였다. 본 연구결과 MUKLIMO는 복접한 지형에서도 바람장의 수치모의가 가능하며 매우 유용함을 알았고 우주센터에서의 바람의 특성이 규명되었다.

As small size and complex metal machining components demand increases, cutting processes in microscale become necessary. Ball-end milling is a commonly used finishing process, which nowadays can be applied in the microscale size. Surface quality and dimensional accuracy are two basic parameters that affect small size components in their assembly and functionality. Thus, good quality can be achieved by optimizing the cutting conditions of the procedure. This study presents a 3D simulation model of ball-end milling in microscale developed in a commercial CAD software and its optical and computing results. These carried out results are resumed to surface topomorphy, surface roughness, chip geometry and cutting forces calculations that arising during the cutting process. A great number of simulations were performed in a milling machine centre, applying the discretized kinematics of the procedure and the final results were compared with measurements of Al7075-T651 experiments.

본 연구는 복잡한 산악지형에서 바람장 변화를 해석하고, 산불발생시 확산방향을 예측하여 산불방지 전략에 활용하기 위해서 수행되었다. 연구 대상지는 2000년 4월 7일 산불이 발생하여 10일간 진행되었던 삼척지역을 대상으로 하였다. 삼척 산불피해지는 복잡한 산악구조를 가지고 있는데 먼저 중규모 기상 모델인 WRF를 사용하여 대상지에 설치한 AWS(4 지점)의 관측결과와 비교하였다. WRF 모의 결과, 4개 지점의 풍속은 AWS 관측지점의 풍속에 비해 5~8m/s(200% 과대평가) 강하였으며, 관측된 풍향은 지점마다 다양하게 나타난 것에 비해 모의된 풍향은 모든 지점에서 서풍계열로 나타났다. 결과적으로 WRF와 같은 중규모 기상모델은 복잡한 산악지형에서의 바람장 변화를 잘 모의하지 못하였다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 미기상 대기유동장 수치모형인 ENVI-met 프로그램을 이용하여 지표면 높이에서 삼척 LTER 지역의 국지규모 바람장을 모의하였다. 지형효과에 의한 모델의 민감도를 위해 다양한 초기 조건(기류, 온 습도, 대기난류, 토양 및 식생 모형)들을 고려하여 분석하였다. ENVI-met 모의결과, 풍속은 실측과 비교할 때 약 70%의 정확도를 보였으며, 풍향은 계곡부와 능선부에서 지형효과로 인한 변화를 잘 반영하였다. 향후 ENVI-met은 산불확산예측 및 산불방지전략 수립을 위해 미기상 대기유동장 수치모형을 이용하여 산악지역의 미기상 해석에 관한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The incomplete saturation and the void formation during the resin infiltration into fibrous porous media in the resin transfer molding process cause failure in the final product during its service. In order to better understand flow behavior during the filling process, a finite-element scheme for transient flow simulation across the micro-structured fibrous media is developed in the present work. A volume-of- fluid (VOF) method has been incorporated in the Eulerian frame to capture the evolution of flow front and the vertical periodic boundary condition has been combined to avoid unwanted wall effect. In the microscale simulation, we investigated the transient filling process in various fiber structures and discussed the mechanism leading to the flow fingering in the case of random fiber distribution. Effects of the filling pressure, the shear-thinning behavior of fluid and the volume fraction on the flow front have been investigated for both intra-tow and the inter-tow flows in dual-scale fiber tow models.

There is an inherent randomness for concrete microstructure even with the same manufacturing process. Meanwhile, the concrete material under the aqueous environment is usually not fully saturated by water. This study aimed to develop a stochastic micromechanical framework to investigate the probabilistic behavior of the unsaturated concrete from microscale level. The material is represented as a multiphase composite composed of the water, the pores and the intrinsic concrete (made up by the mortar, the coarse aggregates and their interfaces). The differential scheme based two-level micromechanical homogenization scheme is presented to quantitatively predict the concrete's effective properties. By modeling the volume fractions and properties of the constituents as stochastic, we extend the deterministic framework to stochastic to incorporate the material's inherent randomness. Monte Carlo simulations are adopted to reach the different order moments of the effective properties. A distribution-free method is employed to get the unbiased probability density function based on the maximum entropy principle. Numerical examples including limited experimental validations, comparisons with existing micromechanical models, commonly used probability density functions and the direct Monte Carlo simulations indicate that the proposed models provide an accurate and computationally efficient framework in characterizing the material's effective properties. Finally, the effects of the saturation degrees and the pore shapes on the concrete macroscopic probabilistic behaviors are investigated based on our proposed stochastic micromechanical framework.

This study aims to develop a vision inspection system for screw threads. To inspect external defects in screw threads, the vision inspection system was developed using front light illumination from which bright images can be obtained. The front light system, however, requires multiple side images for inspection of the entire thread surface, which can be performed by omnidirectional optics. In this study, an omnidirectional optical system was designed to obtain annular images of screw threads using an image sensor and two reflection mirrors; one large concave mirror and one small convex mirror. Optical simulations using backward and forward ray tracing were performed to determine the dimensional parameters of the proposed optical system, so that an annular image of the screw threads could be obtained with high quality and resolution. Microscale surface defects on the screw threads could be successfully detected using the developed annular inspection system.

Roadside greenery in the city is not only a means of reducing fine dust, but also an indispensable element of the city in various aspects such as improvement of urban thermal environment, noise reduction, ecosystem connectivity, and aesthetics. However, in studies dealing with the effect of reducing fine dust through trees in existing urban spaces, microscopic aspects such as the adsorption effect of plants were dealt with, structural changes such as the width of urban buildings and streets, and the presence or absence of trees, Impact studies that reflect the actual form of In this study, the effect of greenery composition applicable to urban space on PM2.5 was simulated through the microclimate epidemiologic model ENVI-met, and field measurements were performed in parallel to verify the results. In addition, by analyzing the results of fine dust background concentration, wind speed, and leaf area index, the sensitivity to major influencing variables was tested. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that the fine dust reduction effect was the highest in the case with a high planting amount, and the reduction effect was the greatest at a low background concentration. Based on this, the cost of planting street green areas and the effect of reducing PM2.5 were compared. The results of this study can contribute as a basis for considering the effect of pedestrian space on air quality when planning and designing street green spaces.
