A multi-dimensional thermal-hydraulic system analysis code, MARS 1.3.1, has been developed in order to have the realistic analysis capability of two-phase thermal-hydraulic transients for pressurized water reactor (PWR) plants. As the backbones for the MARS code, the RELAP5/MOD3.2.1.2 and COBRA-TF codes were adopted in order to take advantages of the very general, versatile features of RELAP5 and the realistic three-dimensional hydrodynamic module of COBRA-TF. In the MARS code, all the functional modules of the two codes were unified into a single code first. Then, the source codes were converted into the standard Fortran 90, and then they were restructured using a modular data structure based on "derived type variables" and a new "dynamic memory allocation" scheme. In addition, the Windows features were implemented to improve user friendliness. This paper presents the developmental work of the MARS version 1.3.1 including the hydrodynamic model unification, the heat structure coupling, the code restructuring and modernization, and their verifications.their verifications.

This paper presents the modeling and multivariable feedback control of a novel high-precision multi-dimensional positioning stage. This integrated 6-degree-of-freedom. (DOF) motion stage is levitated by three aerostatic bearings and actuated by 3 three-phase synchronous permanent-magnet planar motors (SPMPMs). It can generate all 6-DOF motions with only a single moving part. With the DQ decomposition theory, this positioning stage is modeled as a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) electromechanical system with six inputs (currents) and six outputs (displacements). To achieve high-precision positioning capability, discrete-time integrator-augmented linear-quadratic-regulator (LQR) and reduced-order linearquadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control methodologies are applied. Digital multivariable controllers are designed and implemented on the positioning system, and experimental results are also presented in this paper to demonstrate the stage's dynamic performance.

In order to operate the hydraulic structures efficiently for reducing flood damage after 4 Major River Restoration Project, it is essential to obtain enough hydraulic information with certain reliability. A coupled modeling system, providing spatial hydraulic information, for multi-dimensional hydraulic models was developed to complement 1-D hydraulic modeling. Developed system can offers spatial and grid unit information as well as line and section unit information from 1-D modeling. It is considered that the coupled modeling system can be used to provide various kinds of hydraulic information for river management and treatment.

With the advance of the standard of living, the demand on automobile goes beyond the simple transportion equipment, therefore the interior noise reduction has been the important factor for improvement of the ride quality. Idling noise is a major vehicle characteristic determining occupant comfort. In the present research two approaches for noise source identification based on theory for multi-input system have been investigated. The concept of the frequency response function and the multi-dimensional spectral analysis were used to estimated the spectra of the noise source.

Purpose - The overarching aim of this study is to empirically test the effect of ex-post control mechanisms on multi-dimensional trust and channel performance in franchise systems. Although the franchise system is a vertical marketing channel based on trust between the franchisor and the franchisees, issues related to franchisee's opportunistic behavior have persisted and thus requires research into the effective control system of franchise headquarters. Research design, data, and methodology - In this study, data was collected from 150 franchises to identify the effect of two types of franchising headquarters' control system on the multi-dimensional trust and franchise channel outcome between franchisor and franchisee. To test the hypotheses intended to achieve this aim, structural equations modeling technique is utilized. Results - The results of this research reveal that among the two formal control systems studied (output and process control), output control positively and significantly affects multidimensional trust. Additionally, among the three dimensions of trust employed in this study, only expertise has a positive and significant effect on contract compliance. Equally, only expertise and integrity have a negative and significant effect on opportunistic behavior. Conclusions - The study provides managerial and theoretical insights into understanding ex-post control mechanisms, trust, compliance and opportunistic behaviors in franchise systems.

Hydrodynamic simulations of mesoscopic solvent have been performed by multi-particle collision algorithm in a real dimensional system without and with the random shifting of the grid. A systematic conversion of the dimensionless units to a real dimensional system was confirmed by jump rates of solvent particles. Speed distributions of solvent particles obtained from the simulations agreed very well with the Maxwell-Boltzmann distributions. Solvent viscosities obtained from the simulations and from the conversion of units are exactly the same which confirmed the correct conversion of the units once again. The calculation of the friction coefficient of a massive Brownian particle in a mesoscopic solvent as a function of Brownian particle diameter was examined as an example.

In this study, we identify contribution of structure-borne-noise of vehicle HVAC system using Multi-Dimensional spectral analysis (MDSA) method. Firstly, to identify the applicability of MDSA method, the case of HVAC system was modeled with four input / single output system. The four inputs which is given vibration data is composed of blower, evaporator, heater and duct. The single output is noise data from driver's seat. When the blower motor is operating, we analyze the contributions of four input / single output. As a result of experiment, we identify efficiency of systems modeled with four input / single output through ordinary coherence function (OCF) and multiple coherence function (MCF).

In this study, a practical holographic interferometric tomography system, which is instantaneous and non-contact for measuring three dimensional flow field, was developed. The system consists of holographic recording/reconstruction system, fringe analysis code and computational tomography code and it is developed with Gill environment for general users. The developed system was applied to three-dimensional natural convection from a discrete flush-mounted circular heat source on the bottom of a cubic enclosure. The heat source was located at the off-center of the bottom plate so that three-dimensional temperature field can be achieved. A set of multi-directional holographic interferograms was recorded by employing a double-reference beam, double-exposure holographic technique. Optical pathlength data were extracted from the recorded interferometric data and finally three dimensional temperature field inside the cube was reconstructed.

Small injection molded articles such as lens and mobile product's parts are usually molded in multi-cavity mold. The problems occurred in multi-cavity molding are flow imbalance among the cavities. The flow imbalance affects on the dimensions and physical properties of molded articles. First of all, the origin of flow imbalance is geometrical imbalance of delivery system. However, even the geometry of delivery system is balanced well the cavity imbalance is being developed. This comes from the unsuitable operational conditions of injection molding. Among the operational conditions, injection speed is the most significant process variable affecting the filling imbalances in multi-cavity injection molding. In this study, experimental study of flow imbalance has been conducted for various injection speeds and materials. Also, the filling Imbalances were compared with CAE results. The dimensions and physical state of multi-cavity molded parts were examined. The results showed that the filling imbalances vary according to the injection speed and flow property of resins. Subsequently, the imbalanced filling and pressure distribution in the multi-cavity affect on the dimensions and physical states of molded parts.
