A numerical model based on the SOLA-VOF method, which can calculate the transient free-surface configuration of the melt, has been developed in order to analyze melt flow in the investment mold. The computational results were compared with experimental results obtained from pure aluminum investment casting. Heat transfer analysis, with and without consideration of melt flow effect has been performed. It can be concluded that analysis of melt flow in the investment mold, provides the optimum conditions for gating design. It also enables more precise solidification simulation, since heat loss, while filling the thin and complex investment mold, plays an important role in determining the solidification sequence.

불완전 데이터 즉, 결측값을 가지는 데이터를 분석할 경우 결측데이터에 대해서 어떠한 처리를 해야할 필요가 있다. 결측데이터에 대한 처리로서 주로 이용되어온 방법으로는 결측값을 포함한 관측값(case)을 제외하는 방법이었다. 이후 여러 방법들이 제안되어 EM알고리즘이나 회귀알고리즘에 의한 추정을 바탕으로 결측값에 대한 추정을 해서 그 추정값으로 결측값을 대치하는 방법을 사용할 수 있게되었다. 본 논문에서는 복수 개의 데이터세트를 생성해서 대치하는 다중대입 소프트인 SOLAS를 소개한다.

최근, 자유수면을 갖는 비압축성 유체의 해석을 위해 Hirt and Nichols(1981)가 제안한 VOF법이 자유수면을 취급하는 많은 학문분야에서 활발히 활용되고 있다. 특히, 일본에서 잠제에 의한 쇄파해석에 암전 등(1994)이 처음으로 VOF법을 적용한 이래 많은 연구자에 의한 공동연구의 결과로 개발된 CADMAS-SURF(해안개발기술연구 Center, 2001)는 사용자가 직접 입·출력을 제어할 수 있는 효과적인 2차원파동장의 해석프로그램으로 알려져 있다. 국내에서는 김 등(2001, 2002)이 최초로 VOF-SOLA법을 이용한 수치파동수로를 제안하고 잠제주변의 파동장해석을 수행하고 있다.

Numerical solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations, governing 2-dimensional, time-dependent, viscous, incompressible fluid flow past a square cylinde in an infinite region, are presented for Reynolds numbers $10^2$, $10^3$and $10^4$. Finite-difference scheme, based on SOLA-VOF is adopted and a discretization of the convection term for irregular grid is newly suggested by altering the original nonconservation form into conservation one. Distribution of finer grids around the body reveals fairly reasonable consistency with the experimental variables : drag coefficient, lift coefficient, Strouhal number, fluctuating pressure coefficient, etc.

The present study describes a numerical analysis for simulation of the sloshing of flows with free-surface which contained in a rectangular tank The SOLA-VOF (Volume of fluid) method uses a fixed mesh for calculating the motion of flow and the free-surface. This Eulerian approach enables the VOF method to use only a small amount of computer memory for simulating sloshing problems with complicated free-surface contours. The VOF function, representing the volume fraction of a cell occupied by the fluid, is calculated for each cells, which gives the locating of the free-surface filling any some fraction of cells with fluid. Using SOLA-VOF method, the study describes visualization about simulation of the sloshing of flows and damping effect by baffle. Translation and pitching motion of the forms have been investigated The time-dependent changes of free-surface height are used for visualization subject to several conditions such as fluid height horizontal acceleration, sinusoidal motion, and viscosity. The free-surface heights were used for comparing wall-force, which is caused by sloshing of flows. Baffle was Installed to reduce the force on the wall by sloshing of flows. Damping effects was extensively expressed under the conditions such as baffle shape and position.

Submerged thin walls are extreme case of submerged rectangular blocks, and could be used for many purposes in rivers or coastal zones, e.g. to tsunami. To understand flow characteristics including flow and pressure fields around a specific submerged thin wall a numerical model was applied which includes computation of hydrodynamic pressure on ${\sigma}$-coordinate. ${\sigma}$-coordinate has strong merits for simulation of subcritical flow over mild-sloped beds. On the other hand ${\sigma}$-coordinate is quite poor to treat sharp structures on the bed. There have been a few trials to incorporate dynamic pressure in ${\sigma}$-coordinate by some researchers. One of the previous approaches includes process of sloving the Poisson equation. However, the above method includes many high-order terms, and requires long cpu for simulation. Another method SOLA was developed by Hirt et al. for computation of dynamic pressure, but it was valid for straight grid system only. Previous SOLA was modified for ${\sigma}$-coordinate for the present purpose and was adopted in a model system, CST3D. Computed flow field shows reasonable behaviour including vorticity is much stronger than the upstream and downstream of the structure. The model was verified to laboratory experiments at a 2DV flume. Time-average flow vectors were measured by using one-dimensional electro-magnetic velocimeter. Computed flow field agrees well with the measured flow field within 10 % error from the speed point of view at 5 profiles. It is thought that the modified SOLA scheme is useful for ${\sigma}$-coordinate system.

In this paper, a variable time-scale modification using SOLA is proposed, which takes into consideration the different time-scaled characteristics of voiced and unvoiced speech. The conventional method performs time-scale modifiction at a uniform rate for all speech. For this purpose, voiced and unvoiced speech duration at various taling speeds were statistically analyzed. A clipping autocorrelation functio was applied to each analysis frame to detemine voiced and unvoiced speech to obtain respective variation rates. The results were used to perform variable time-scale modification to evaluate performance, a MOS test was conducted to compare the proposed voiced/unvoiced variable time-scale modification and the uniform SOLA method. Results indicate that the proposed method produces sentence quality superior to that of the conventional method.

The mold filling process has been a central issue in the development of numerical methods to solve the casting processes. A mold filling which is inherently transient free surface fluid flow, is important because the quality of casting highly depends on such phenomenon, Most of the existing numerical schemes to solve mold filling process have severe limitations in time step restrictions or Courant criteria since explicit time integration is used. Therefore, a large computation time is required to analyze casting processes. In this study, the well known SOLA-VOF method has been modified implicitly to simulate the mold filling process. Solutions to example filling problems show that the proposed method is more efficient in computation time than the original SOLA -VOF method.

A feasibility study on the alternating jet flow under the static electromagnetic field was carried out. When a fluid with electrical conductivity lies in the static electromagnetic field and moves electric current occurs in the fluid. Due to the electromagnetic field and the electric current, lorentz force generates in the fluid, which undergo the 'breaking' effect to the fluid. In order to simulate the complex fluid flow in the magnetic field, electromagnetic and fluid flow analysis need to be solved simultaneously. In the present study, a SOLA (SOLution Algorithm) scheme was used in order to calculate electromagnetic and fluid flow field. Jet flow without an electromagnetic field was compared with analytical solution in order to validate the flow analysis scheme. Effect of jet velocity on the flow pattern down the jet was investigated.
