  • The dynamic contact model of a beam that contacts to a rigid wall in a reactor core was studied. The gap between the beam and contact wall results in dynamic contact accompanying inequality constraints. The inequality constraints can be relieved to an equality constraint problem by introducing a convex Penalty function. In this work, a beam with contact condition is formulated using quasi-convex penalty function and numerically solved. General coordinate solution is adopted to raise computational efficiency. Also nonlinearity is examined In the beam contacting to a rigid wall.

  • In a pressurized water reactor (PWR), control rod assembly (CRA) falls into the guide tubes of a fuel assembly due to gravity for scram. Various theoretical approaches and numerical analyses have been performed because its shape is simple and its design was completely developed several decades ago. A control rod assembly for a sodium-cooled faster reactor (SFR) which is geometrically more complicated is being actively developed in Korea nowadays. Drop time and impact velocity of a CRA are important parameters with respect to reactivity insertion time and the mechanical robustness of a CRA and a guide duct. In this paper, computational method considering simultaneously the equation of motion for rigid body and the Navier-Stokes equations for fluid is suggested and verified by comparison with theoretical analysis results. Through this valuable CFD analysis method, drop time and impact velocity of initially designed SFR CRA are evaluated before performing scram tests with it.

  • It is a small injection molding machine for table top considering the material heating mechanism and the design and structure stability by securing the mechanism that compresses the inside of the material heating tube by using the electric actuator and by providing space between the body and the material heating tube to reduce heat loss Develop body. An electric actuator suitable for applying pressure to the inside of a material heating tube is a mechanical system composed of a rigid structure. Since a large force is repeatedly applied to the electric actuator and the push rod, the interaction between the moving parts and the dynamic Maximum stress through analysis and prediction of fatigue life of critical parts The pushrod reflects the structural analysis results of the electric actuator and the push rod, and pushes the inside of the material heating tube by the push rod to inject the molten material from the nozzle into the mold. The pushrod operates by the operation of the electric actuator. The material heated by the coil heater is ejected through the nozzle by the pressure of the material heating tube, and the material heating tube and the nozzle are also lowered at the same time as the push rod is lowered, so that the material is closely adhered to the mold. We want to study the completion of the injection.

  • The comer filling in shaped drawing process is an important characteristic, unlike the round drawing. It has also influence on the dimensional accuracy of the product. In this study, therefore, the shaped drawing process has been simulated by the three dimensional rigid-plastic finite element method in order to investigate the effect of process variables such as reduction in area and semi-die angle to the corner filling. The artificial neural network has also been introduced to reduce the number of simulations. To verify the results of simulations, experiments have been performed on the real industrial products. According to the results, the main process variable on the corner filling is the combination of semi-die angle in the irregular shaped drawing processes, but in the case of regular shaped drawing processes, reduction in area has great influence on the corner filling.

  • We report a case of C1-2 instability with a bilateral high-riding transverse foramen that was treated with rod-screw fixation using a technique of translaminar rigid screw fixation of the axis. It is believed that a C1-2 fixation with bilateral C-2 translaminar screws has an important advantage over previously reported techniques of C1-2 fixation by eliminating the risk of injury to the vertebral artery during C2 screw placement.

  • A new PLF-BLU (Plastic Light Fiber-Back Light Unit) using side glowing light fiber rods array for the 42" LCD TV display has been evelopedd. The light fibers were 14mm in diameter and 50cm long pure transparent acrylic rods of 1.49 refractive index. Fine seratees were made on the flat side of rod. extremely bright incandscent light from lamp fed into the fiber si scattered at scratches then emerges through the surface of rod. A typical PLF-BLU system consists of 24 PLFs produced side glow of brightness of 4,500cd/㎡ to 6,500cd/㎡. New PLF-BLU is proved to be a BLU of rigid, bright, no heat generation, and low power consumption, hence a prospective BLU system for very and/or ultra large size TVs. A new LED-PLF-BLU system considered to be a revolutionary to break-through of the BLU technologies has also been developed, and is decribed briefly.

  • A finite element analysis-based approach which investigates the causes of the breakdown in the outer ring of the choke at hot rod rolling mill is presented. Two-dimensional drawings of the whole vertical-type mill stand are transformed into three-dimensional CAD models. Non-linear elasto-plastic deformation analysis of material at the roll gap is performed for computing roll force and torque of the work roll. Then, the reaction forces of the bearing rings together with a set of roller bearings that support the work roll are obtained by means of rigid body motion analysis. Finally, stress behaviors in the bearing rings together with a set of roller bearings that support the work roll are investigated by linear elastic analysis. Results reveal that stress at the contact area between the outer ring and roller bearing is extraordinary high when an internal gap between an external surface of the outer ring and the internal surface of the chock due to wear of the inside of the chock occurs.

  • It is difficult to find out the kinematic characteristics of a vehicle suspension without the usage of CAE software. The application of CAE software into suspension kinematics and dynamics yields the more precise knowledge on the chassis design. In this study, the influence of the suspension geometry on the handling performances of a large-sized bus is investigated using the DADS software. The front and rear suspension of a large-sized bus are a rigid axle suspension with the four control links. The elastokinematic analysis is performed to evaluate the roll characteristics of the front and rear suspension. The elastokinematic responses are evaluated in terms of the roll center height and roll steer for various geometric parameters. The roll center height is mainly dependent on the vertical displacement of a panhard rod and the vertical displacements of lower control links affect the roll steer of a rear suspension. The parameter study with the change of rear suspension geometry is conducted to investigate the vehicle handling performances. This parameter study shows that the vertical displacement and orientation of a panhard rod influence the handling performances of a large-sized bus significantly.

  • Dynamic contact of a cantilever beam with Sap at the end is discussed. The gap in a structure induces dynamic contact, and the contact problem is always accompanied by inequality constraints which mean that the solution of the structure with contact condition should satisfy variational inequality. Inequality, but, can be reduced to equality condition considering convex penalty function. In this paper, formulation of a beam with contact is derived using quasi convex penalty function. General coordinate solution which is needed to increase computational efficiency is applied. Nonlinear behavior of a beam with rigid and elastic contact condition was discussed.

  • Gladioli (Gladiolus hybridus) showing flower colour breaking leaf mosaics, notched leaf, and dwarfing or lack of visible symptoms were collected from gladioli growing areas in Taegu and Kyungpook province, Korea. The three viruses isolated from the naturally infected gladioli were identified as broad bean wilt virus (BBWV), cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), and tobacco rattle virus (TRV) by their host range, immunosorbent electron microscopy (ISEM), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), direct tissue blotting immunoassay (DTBIA), and intracellural symptoms. By DTBIA and ISEM, TRV was detected in gladiolus showing notched leaf, while CMV was frequently detected in gladioli with dwarfing, color breaking and malformation of flowers. BBWV was also often detected in many symptomless gladiolus plants, but TRV was detected in notched-leaf of gladiolus. Electron microcopic examination of negatively stained preparations showed that BBWV and CMV are spherical particles of 28 nm and 30 nm in diameter, and TRV is rigid rod-shaped particles of 40∼200 nm in length. The rigid rodshaped virus particles reacted positively with TRV antiserum in ISEM and DTBIA, respectively.
