In present study, a two dimensional unsteady Navier-Stokes solver has been developed using the Diagonalized ADI (DADI) method and implicit dual time stepping method. The jacobian matrices in steady state Navier-Stokes equations are introduced from inviscid flux terms. The implicit treatment of artificial dissipation terms results in a block penta-diagonal matrix system and it becomes a scalar penta-diagonal matrix by diagonalization. In steady state equations about fictitious time, a new residual including a real time derivative term is introduced. From a converged solution about fictitious time, a real time unsteady solution can be obtained, which is called 'implicit dual time stepping method'. For code validation, an oscillating flat plate, a regular Karman vortices past a circular cylinder and shock buffeting around a bicircular airfoil problems are numerically solved. And they are compared with a theoretical solution, experiments and other researcher's computations.

A 5 ton/day pilot scale two-phase anaerobic digester was constructed and tasted to treat Korean food wastes in Anyang city. The process was developed based on 3 years of lab-scale experimental results on am optimim treatment method for the recovery of biogas and humus. Problems related to food waste are ever Increasing quantity among municipal solid wastes(MSW) and high moisture and salt contents. Thus our food waste produces large amounts of leachate and bed odor in landfill sites which are being exhausted. The easily degradable presorted food waste was efficiently treated in the two-phase anaerobic digestion process. The waste contained in plastic bags was shredded and then screened for the removal of inert material such as fabrics and plastics, and subsequently put into the two-stage reactors. Heavy and light inerts such as bones, shells, spoons and plastic pieces were again removed by gravity differences. The residual organic component was effectively hydrolyzed and acidified in the first reactor with 5 days space time at pH of about 6.5. The second, methanization reactor part of which is filled with anaerobic fillters, converted the acids into methane with pH between 7.4 to 7.8. The space time for the second reactor was 15 days. The effluent from the second reactor was recycled to the first reactor to provide alkalinities. The process showed stable steady state operation with the maximum organic rate of 7.9 $kgVS/m^3day$ and the volatile solid reduction efficiency of about 70%. The total of 3.6 tons presorted MSW containing 2.9 tons of food organic was treated to produce about $230m^3$ of biogas with 70% of methane and 80kg humus. This process is extended to full scale treating 15 tons of food waste a day in Euiwang city and the produced biogas is utilized for the heating/cooling of adjacent buildings.

We present GALEX (Galaxy Evolution Explorer) far (FUV) and near (NUV) ultraviolet imaging of 34 nearby early-type galaxies from the SAURON representative sample of 48 E/S0 galaxies, all of which have ground-based optical imaging from the MDM Observatory. The surface brightness profiles of nine galaxies (~26 per cent) show regions with blue UV-optical colours suggesting recent star formation. Five of these (~15 per cent) show blue integrated UV-optical colours that set them aside in the NUV integrated colour-magnitude relation. These are objects with either exceptionally intense and localised NUV fluxes or blue UV-optical colours throughout. They also have other properties confirming they have had recent star formation, in particular Hbeta absorption higher than expected for a quiescent population and a higher CO detection rate. This suggests that residual star formation is more common in early-type galaxies than we are used to believe. NUV-blue galaxies are generally drawn from the lower stellar velocity dispersion (sigma_e <200 km/s) and thus lower dynamical mass part of the sample. We have also constructed the first UV Fundamental Planes and show that NUV blue galaxies bias the slopes and increase the scatters. If they are eliminated the fits get closer to expectations from the virial theorem. Although our analysis is based on a limited sample, it seems that a dominant fraction of the tilt and scatter of the UV Fundamental Planes is due to the presence of young stars in preferentially low-mass early-type galaxies.

An effective real time fault diagnosis approach for UAV engine is drawn from IMM filter and GLRT methods. For this purpose based on the linear diagnosis model derived from engine dynamic performance analysis the Kalman filter for residual estimation and each method are applied to the fault diagosis of the actuator for engine control sensors. From the process of the IMM filter application the effective FDI measure is obtained and the state responses due to actuator fault are estimated. Likewise from the GLRT method the fault magnitudes of actuator and sensors are estimated associated with some FDI functionings. The numerical simulations verify the effectiveness of the IMM filter for FDI and the GLRT in estimating the fault magnitudes of each fault mode.

Recently, a new type of polyolefin fiber having a good mechanical properties is being developed, and it is necessary to examine a possibility for the new fiber together to be used as a reinforcing fiber with other types of fiber or by itself. The objective of this study is to find flexural toughness and tensile strength of concrete reinforced with steel and polyolefin fibers. Four point beam tests were performed with 324 specimens following two standard tests methods: KS F 2566 and ASTM C 1399-02. From the test results, the effects of volume fraction of fibers, and aspect ratio of steel fiber on the toughness and tensile strength were investigated, and the optimal ratio of steel fiber to polyolefin fiber was suggested.

The role of the torquer in dynamically tuned gyroscope (DTG) is to erect the slanted rotor straight. This IBper presents the design method of the torquer. The torquer must satisfy the desired maximum angular velocity condition. The performance of magnet-residual flux density, maximum energy product, and so on-is limited by the material characteristics. So we should design the torquer with the limited condition that magnet performance is given. If the mechanical size of DTG is deter-mined, the dimension of the torquer is calculated and the space of the torquer becomes constant. Therefore, if we determine the diameter of the torquer coil, the number of coil turns is calculated automatically. Using these dimensions, we can calculate the torque and the scale factor. The maximum angular velocity is computed if we know the maximum current density. The analysis of the torquer was carried out by the 3-dimensional finite element method. The proposed algorithm of the torquer design was valid in comparison with the experimental data obtained from fabricated DTG.

As fiber reinforced composite materials are widely used in aircraft, space structures and robot arms, the on-line cure monitoring during the cure process of the composite materials has become an important research area for the better quality and productivity. In this paper, the dielectric circuit of the Wheatstone bridge type for measuring the dissipation factor during cure of thermsetting resin matrix composite materials was designed and manufactured. Also, the dielectric sensor for the cure monitoring of high temperature cure composites was developed and tested. The residual thermal stresses of the dielectric sensor during high temperature cure were analyzed by the finite element method and its dielectric characteristics at high temperature cure were analyzed by the finite element method and its dielectric characteristics at high temperature were evaluated. The on-line cure monitoring of the BMI(Bismaleimide) resin was performed using the developed Wheatstone bridge type circuit and the high-temperature dielectric sensor.

Pulmonary aspergillosis is relatively rare disease, most commonly presenting pre-existing cavitary disease. This investigation is designed to illustrate the clinical features, preoperative diagnosis and surgical role in the management of this disease. In retrospective review of opeative cases since Jan. 1988, total 16 cases were analysis. Peak incidence of age lies in the 3rd & 5th decade[81.3%].The common presenting symptoms were hemoptysis & blood tinged sputum[90.9%] & all cases had a history of treatment with antituberculous drugs, but the tuberculosis was revealed in only 3 cases in the pathologic studies on specimen after resection. The locations of lesion were upper lobes in 13 cases, lower lobe in 2 cases, and left whole lobe in 1 case. The operative procedures for treatment of aspergillosis were performed. The lobectomy was performed in 7 cases, lobectomy & segmentectomy in 2 cases, lobectomy & decortication in 2 cases, segmentectomy in 3 cases, bilobectomy & segmentectomy in 1 case and pneumonectomy in 1 case. There was one death due to respiratory insufficiency 21 days later,postoperatively, and empyemas & residual space problems were developed in 2 & 3 cases,respectively. The empyemas were treated with open thoracostomy and the dead spaces was filled with granulation tissues within 6 months. During follow up, there was no recurrence. In conclusion, surgical resection is the treatment of choice for symptomatic aspergillosis and needed in asymptomatic patient to prevent possible fatal sequelae in the future.

This study aims to clarify differences among the responses of users depending on variations in audio-visual landscape elements used to create amenities in residential areas. For the purpose, a laboratory experiment was performed to evaluate the emotions of subjects. As a result of subjective evaluation, it was found that the emotions of subjects were more significantly promoted in providing both sounds and images at the same time, than in providing images alone. In addition, as a result of comparing the variables of relativistic energy alpha waves have by measuring their brain waves, it was seen that alpha waves increased when providing harmonious sound sources with images, except for specific sound sources. Thus, it is considered that provision of sound sources capable of promoting human emotions can contribute greatly to improving the value of space for the sake of comfortable housing environment.

Most patients having annuloaortic ectasia are associated with marked dilatation of the sinuses of Valsalva and the aortic annulus as well as the huge aneurysm of the ascending aorta. A 19 year old male patient complaining of tightness on left posterior chest wall underwent cardiac angiography in which demonstrated annuloaortic ectasia with ascending aortic aneurysm and aortic insufficiency. The patient had corrective operation replacing the ascending aorta and aortic valve with a composite graft[Dacron prosthesis containing a Bjork-Shiley aortic valve] within the aneurysmal sac. The coronary orifices were anastomosed to the tubular Dacron prosthesis [30 mm in diameter] by means of a second smaller Gore-Tex tube [8mm in diameter]. The aneurysmal sac was trimmed by removing the redundant wall and then wrapped outer wall of the Dacron prosthesis. Postoperatively, mediastinal bleeding was temporarily observed in the operative day and satisfactory blood pressure was maintained with small dose of dopamine. One week later, large amount of serous effusion was drained out of the retrosternal space making partial disruption of the skin which was healed well by daily local dressing. The patient discharged in good condition on postoperative 29th day with no residual complications and is doing very well on the 4 months follow-up.
