The subchannel analysis capability of MARS, a multi-dimensional thermal-hydraulic system code, has been enhanced. In particular, the turbulent mixing and void drift models for the flow-mixing phenomena in rod bundles were improved. Then, the subchannel analysis feature was combined with the existing coupled system thermal-hydraulics (T/H) and 3D reactor kinetics calculation capability of MARS. These features allow for more realistic simulations of both the hot channel behavior and the global system T/H behavior. Using the coupled features of MARS, a coupled analysis of a main steam line break (MSLB) is carried out for demonstration purposes. The results of the calculations are very reasonable and promising.

In this study, 3 dimensional non-linear race car vehicle model including Chassis, steering and suspension systems were modeled by using Multi-Body Dynamics Simulation Program, DADS 9.5(Dynamic Analysis and Design System),which was used in kinematic and dynamic analysis. A full race car vehicle dynamics model using DADS program was presented and analysis was carried out to estimate the handling characteristics that may be very useful to design a race car in early design stage. The simulation of vehicle handling behavior for step steering input was simulated and compared with different design parameters: torsional stiffness of the front and rear anti roll bars, the motion ratio of the front and rear suspension system, the location of the tie rod joint, in multibody dynamic model. Therefore this simulation model before race car construction in early design step will be helpful for race car designer to save time and limited budget.

A multi-stage reciprocating air compressor has many pistons and conneting rods to one crank throw, while a general engine has one connecting rod. Those make its design hard to apply balance weight design method generally using in an engine design, This study introduces a modified balance weight design method in order to calculate the unbalanced inertia properly. Vibration tests on V/W type air compressor have been conducted to prove the usefulness of design program. It is confirmed that the proposed program is applicable to design of balance weight.

Internally nitrided dilute W-Ti alloy specimens having a heavily deformed surface microstructure were prepared by a multi-step internal nitriding at 1573-2073 K. Primary nitriding below their recrystallization temperature induced a precipitation of ultrafine TiN particles. After secondary and tertiary nitriding, those precipitates grew into rod-like TiN with a length of 20-60 nm. The recrystallization temperature after nitriding was elevated above 2073 K. The yield strength at 1773 K obtained from nitrided W-0.5 mass% Ti alloy was about 5 times as large as that of the recrystallized specimen. DBTT of the nitrided alloys was about 373 K.

Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) which prepared with two-step anodizing method (with dissimilar solutions) was used as a template to fabricate highly ordered, free standing metal nano-rods. AAO nano-template technique can realize self-organized hexagonal pore structure with nanometer dimension size, it's easy to control pore diameter, length and density by varying anodizing conditions. Ni and Ni/Fe/Cu multi-metal layer nanorods were electrochemically deposited into AAO nano-template by AC voltage in simple sulfate solutions.. The properties of samples are tested by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission microscopy (FE-SEM).

A varying degree of eccentricity always exists in the initial configuration of a nuclear fuel rod. Its impact on traditional LWR fuel is limited as the radial gap closes relatively early during irradiation. However, the effect of misalignment is expected to be more relevant in rods with highly conductive fuels, large initial gaps and low conductivity filling gases. In this paper, we study similar characteristics in the experimental setup of two fuel disc irradiation campaigns carried out in the OECD Halden Boiling Water Reactor. Using the multi-dimensional fuel performance code OFFBEAT, we combine 2-D axisymmetric and 3-D simulations to investigate the effect of eccentricity on the fuel temperature distribution. At the same time, we illustrate how the advent of modern tools with multi-dimensional capabilities might further improve the design and interpretation of in-pile separate-effect tests and we outline the potential of such an analysis for upcoming experiments.

접지 시스템은 전력설비의 안전적 운영을 위해 필수적이며, 주요 고려대상인 대지저항률은 토양 종류, 수분, 온도에 따라 변하기 때문에 접지 시스템 설계에서 가장 중요하다. 제주의 지질구조는 화산지역의 특성상 다층구조를 형성하고 있어 지질구조에 따른 접지 저항값은 동일한 접지시스템 구축 지역이라도 지층구조에 따라 접지저항값이 다르게 나타날 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 제주의 대표적인 3종류의 토양에 접지를 설치하였을 때 접지저항 특성 변화를 분석하기 위해 3층 구조의 토양목업 시스템을 구성하였다. 구성된 토양 목업 시스템에서 웨너법을 사용하여 대지저항률을 측정하였으며, 대지모델을 수치적으로 분석할 수 있는 역산방법으로 Gauss-Newton 알고리즘을 사용하여 대지모델을 생성하였다. 기존 접지분야에서 사용되는 1차원 대지분석이 아닌 2차원 역산방법을 적용한 결과 실제 토양 목업에 구성한 3종류 층상 구조와 같은 3층 대지구조로 나타낼 수 있었다. 또한 일반적으로 접지에 사용되는 동봉, 동관, 탄소봉을 사용하여 접지의 변화특성을 분석한 결과 수분공급 상태에 따른 접지저항 변화폭은 동봉은 $2.9[{\Omega}]$, 동관은 $16.5[{\Omega}]$, 탄소봉의 경우 $20.1[{\Omega}]$으로 나타났으며, 수분의 영향으로 .탄소봉의 접지저항이 $141[{\Omega}]$으로 가장 낮게 나타남을 확인 하였다.

Three different multi-component white cast irons alloyed with Cr, V, Mo and W were prepared in order to study their as-cast and solidification structures. Three combinations of the alloying elements were selected so as to obtain the different types of carbides and matrix structures : 3%C-10%Cr-5%Mo-5%W(alloy No.1), 3%C-10%V-5% Mo-5%W(alloy No. 2) and 3%C-17%Cr-3% V(alloy No.3). The as-cast microstructures were investigated with optical and scanning electron microscopes. There existed two different types of carbides, $M_7C_3$ carbide with rod-like morphology and $M_6C$ carbide with fishbone-like one, and matrix in the alloy No. 1. The alloy No. 2 consisted of MC carbide with chunky and flaky type and needle-like $M_2C$ carbide, and matrix. The chunky type referred to primary MC carbide and the flaky one to eutectic MC carbide. The morphology of the alloy No. 3 represented a typical hypo-eutectic high chromium white cast iron composed of rod-like $M_7C_3$ carbide which is very sensitive to heat flow direction and matrix. To clarify the solidification sequence, each iron(50g) was remelted at 1723K in an alumina crucible using a silicon carbide resistance furnace under argon atmosphere. The molten iron was cooled at the rate of 10K/min and quenched into water at several temperatures during thermal analysis. The solidification structures of the specimen were found to consist of austenite dendrite(${\gamma}$), $ ({\gamma}+ M_7C_3)$ eutectic and $({\gamma}+ M_6C)$ eutectic in the alloy No. 1, proeutectic MC, austenite dendrite(${\gamma}$), (${\gamma}$+MC) eutectic and $({\gamma}+ M_2C)$ eutectic in the alloy No. 2, and proeutectic $M_7C_3$ and $ ({\gamma}+ M_7C_3)$ eutectic in the alloy No 3. respectively.

This study examined the cause of the wrinkle defect which is frequently encountered in wire rod rolling of low carbon steel$(C0.08\~0.13wt.\%)$. Even a small defect on the surface of rolled bars can easily develop into fatal cracks during cold heading process of low carbon steel, and it is therefore necessary to minimize inherent defects on the surface of hot rolled bars. Hot rolling process of low carbon steel was analyzed to identify the cause of the wrinkle defect in conjunction with FE analysis. The integrated analysis revealed that the wrinkle defect initiated in the first stage of rolling, and it was at the billet edge where severe deformation and drastic temperature drop were present. To elucidate the micro-mechanical mechanism of the wrinkle defect, hot compression tests were carried out at various temperatures and strain rates using Gleeble-3800. The surface profile of the each other compressed specimens was compared, and rough surface lines were observed at relatively low temperatures. Those surface defects can develop into wrinkles during multi-pass rolling. To control the wrinkle defect in rolling, it is necessary to design an adequate caliber which can minimize the loss of ductility, and thereby prevent flow localization. To use the result of this study fur other steels, the quantitative measure of the wrinkle defect and flow localization parameter should be proposed.

A linear explosively formed penetrator(LEFP) is a modification of the explosively formed penetrator(EFP). An EFP is axisymmetric and has a dish-shaped liner while LEFP has a rectangular-shaped liner with curved cross section. Upon detonating LEFP forms laterally wide projectile like blade, leaving a long penetration hole on the target. On the other hand, a long-rod tungsten heavy alloy(WHA) penetrator is one of the major threats against most of the ground armored vehicles. In this paper, the feasibility of using an LEFP in protecting against a long-rod WHA penetrator by colliding LEFP into the threat was investigated through a set of numerical simulations. In this study, a scale-down WHA penetrator with length to diameter ratio(L/D) of 10.7 and 7.0 mm diameter was used to represent a long-rod WHA penetrator. LS-DYNA and Multi-Material ALE technique were employed for the simulation. For estimation of the protection effect by LEFP, residual penetration depths into RHA by the threat were compared according to various impact locations against the threat.
