  • A numerical study based on the three-dimensional thin-layer Navier-Stokes solver is carried out to analyze the flowfield through a single stage transonic compressor. Explicit four-step Runge-Kutta scheme with spatially variable time step and implicit residual smoothing is used. The governing equations are discretized with exploit finite difference method. Mixed-out average method is used at the interface between rotor and stator. And, an artificial dissipation model is used to assure the stability of solution. The results with k-$\omega$ turbulence model were compared to the results with Baldwin-Lomax model, and physical phenomena of transonic compressor are presented. The two turbulence models give the results that show reasonably good agreements with experimental data.

  • The problem of natural convection from a vertical fin is solved by coupling the thermal diffusion equation in the fin to the constitutive equations of the ambient medium involving the radiation of the medium. The analysis is accomplished by employing an integral method. The governing equations for the problem are solved by shooting method based on the Runge-Kutta Scheme at Pr= 0.7. For the range of values of the fin parameter and the radiation-conduction parameter in the analysis, the numerical results show that the radiation effects play an important role in the heat transfer and enhance the heat transfer.

  • In this study we have considered the governing nonlinear equation of an eccentrically reinforced cylindrical shell. A new analytical method called He's Variational Approach (VA) is used to obtain the natural frequency of the nonlinear equation. This analytical representation gives excellent approximations to the numerical solution for the whole range of the oscillation amplitude, reducing the respective error of angular frequency in comparison with the variation approach method. It has been proved that the variational approach is very effective, convenient and does not require any linearization or small perturbation. Additionally it has been demonstrated that the variational approach is adequately accurate to nonlinear problems in physics and engineering.

  • A counter balance valve is used as one part of hydraulic motor brake system. The function of this valve is to protect over-run or free falling of inertia load. But occasionally the brake system with counter balance valve makes some undesirable problems such as pressure surges or vibrations. In this study, for the purpose of easy estimation about dynamic chrcteristics of hydraulic system including counter balance valve, precise formulation describing fluid dynamics and valve dynamics under various boundary conditions were made. dynamic caracteristics were analysed by numerical intergration using Runge-Kutta method, because the equations in this circuit with counter balance valve contain various nonlinear terms. So the analyzing method developed in this study enabled very easy estimating the relation between the performance of counter balance valve and various physical parameters related to the valve.

  • Acoustic sounds generated by uniform flow around a two-dimensional circular cylinder at Re=150 are simulated by applying the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method. A third-order-accurate up-wind scheme is used for the spatial derivatives. A second-order-accurate Runge-Kutta scheme is also used for time marching. Very small acoustic pressure fluctuation, with same frequency as that of Karman vortex street, is compared with pressure fluctuation around a circular cylinder. The propagation velocity of acoustic sound shows that acoustic approaching the upstream, due to the Doppler effect in uniform flow, slowly propagates. For the downstream, on the other hand, it quickly propagates. It is also apparent that the size of sound pressure is proportional to the central distance ${\gamma}$$\^$-1/2/ of the circular cylinder.

  • Dynamic behaviors and stability of an optical disk drive coupled with an automatic ball balancer(ABB) are analyzed by a theoretical approach. The feeding system is modeled a rigid body with six degree-of-freedom. Using Lagrange's equation, we derive the nonlinear equations of motion for a non-autonomous system with respect to the rectangular coordinate. To investigate the dynamic stability of the system in the neighborhood of the equilibrium positions, the monodromy matrix technique is applied to the perturbed equations. On the other hand, time responses are computed by the Runge-Kutta method. We also investigate the effects of the damping coefficient and the position of ABB on the dynamic behaviors of the system.

  • The paper presents the numerical and experimental results for the dynamic response vibration of a cantilevered beam subjected to a moving mass with variable speeds. Governing equations of motion under a moving mass were derived by Galerkin's mode summation method taking into account the effects of all forces due to moving mass, and the numerical results were calculated by Runge-Kutta integration method. The effects of the speed, acceleration and the magnitude of the moving mass on the response of the beam are fully investigated. In order to verify numerical results, some experiments were conducted, and the numerical results have a little difference with the experimental ones.

  • Among the various aspects of offline handwritten character patterns, it is the great variety of writing styles and variations that renders the task of computer recognition very hard. The immense variety of character shape has been recognized but rarely studied during the past decades of numerous research efforts. This paper tries to address the problem of measuring image distortions and handwritten character patterns with respect to reference patterns. This work is based on mass-spring mesh model with the introduction of simulated electric charge as a source of the external force that can aid decoding the shape distortion. Given an input image and a reference image, the charge is defined, and then the relaxation procedure goes to find the optimum configuration of shape or patterns of least potential. The relaxation process is based on the fourth order Runge-Kutta algorithm, well-known for numerical integration. The proposed method of modeling is rigorous mathematically and leads to interesting results. Additional feature of the method is the global affine transformation that helps analyzing distortion and finding a good match by removing a large scale linear disparity between two images.

  • The paper described the nonlinear dynamic motion behavior of a barge equipped with the portable outboard Dynamic Positioning(DP) control system in short-crested waves. The DP system based on the fuzzy theory is applied to control the thrusters to optimally adjust the ship position and heading in waves. In addition to the short-crested waves, the current, wind and nonlinear drifting force are also included in the calculations. The time domain simulations for the six degrees of freedom motions of the barge with the DP system are solved by the $4^{th}$ order Runge-Kutta method. The results show that the position and heading deviations are limited within acceptable ranges based on the present control method. When the dynamic positioning missions are needed, the technique of the alternative portable DP system developed here can serve as a practical tool to assist those ships without equipping with the DP facility.

  • This article deals with the frequency analysis of viscoelastic sandwich disk with graphene nano-platelets (GPLs) reinforced viscoelastic concrete (GPLRVC) face sheets and honeycomb core. The honeycomb core is made of aluminum due to its low weight and high stiffness. The rule of the mixture and modified Halpin-Tsai model are engaged to provide the effective material constant of the concrete. By employing Hamilton's principle, the governing equations of the structure are derived and solved with the aid of the Generalize Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM). In this paper, viscoelastic properties are modeled according to Kelvin-Voigt viscoelasticity. The deflection as the function of time can be solved by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta numerical method. Afterward, a parametric study is carried out to investigate the effects of the outer to inner radius ratio, hexagonal core angle, thickness to length ratio of the concrete, the weight fraction of GPLs into concrete, and the thickness of honeycomb core to inner radius ratio on the frequency of the viscoelastic sandwich disk with honeycomb core and FG-GPLRVC face sheet.
