This paper describes the optimization of the rudder section by the genetic algorism based on VLM(Vortex Lattice Method) and panel method. The developed propeller-rudder analysis program has been validated by comparing with experimental data. The research extends to optimize the anti-erosion rudder section of the large container ship. The object function is the amount of pressure at leading edge of rudder which is closely related with erosion phenomena. The optimized rudder has been compared with conventional rudder with NACA 0021 section by analyzing with the developed program. The finally optimized section has low and mild pressure distribution in comparison with the NACA rudder. The experiments is expected to be carried out for the validation of the present optimization and more parametric study of section geometry is also expected to be conducted in the near future.

There have been many radiographic studies on age estimation that evaluate reduction in size of dental pulp cavity with secondary dentin formation. The Paewinsky method reported high accuracy in estimating ages by measuring the width of the pulp cavity in panoramic radiographs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the application of the Paewinsky method to digital periapical radiographs. This study was conducted on 103 cases that reported to the Section of Human Identification of the National Forensic Service. The age was calculated by applying the Paewinsky method that measures the root and pulp canal width at three points in a tooth. The estimation results were compared with those calculated by the Johanson method. When the Paewinsky models were applied to digital periapical radiographs, the errors were significantly greater as compared to the original study. The errors of the maxillary second premolar and mandibular lateral incisor were greater than those of the maxillary central incisor, lateral incisor, mandibular canine, and first premolar. Furthermore, errors of the age estimation models in level C were greater than those in levels A and B. This study could be a reference for the application of the Paewinsky method to digital periapical radiographs.

This paper proposes a MSHMM(Multi-Section Hidden Markov Model) recognition method based on Fuzzy Concept, as a method on the speech recognition of speaker-independent. In this recognition method, training data are divided into several section and multi-observation sequences given proper probabilities by fuzzy rule according to order of short distance from MSVQ codebook per each section are obtained. Thereafter, the HMM per each section using this multi-observation sequences is generated, and in case of recognition, a word that has the most highest probability is selected as a recognized word. In this paper, other experiments to compare with the results of these experiments are implemented by the various conventional recognition methods(DP, MSVQ, DMS, general HMM) under the same data. Through results of all-round experiment, it is proved that the proposed MSHMM based on fuzzy concept is superior to DP method, MSVQ method, DMS model and general HMM model in recognition rate and computational time, and does not decreases recognition rate as 92.91% in spite of increment of speaker number.

Fault section isolation and service restoration are very important for function of DAS. In Japan, a progressive protection method is used for the line to ground fault section isolation and service restoration. But the progressive protection method has a drawback that the customer will experience outage time and that the rate in use of the feeder is not over 50%. This paper presents a new Service Restoration Algorithm which is for the line to ground fault section isolation and service restoration method for a ungrounded distribution system. If the proposed algorithm is used, the rate in use of the feeder can improve than before because a distribution system can change multi connection of feeder and the customer's outage time can be reduced. The proposed algorithm has been successfully tested in a distribution system.

In the present study, the analysis on heat and fluid flow in the single screw extruder is carried out by simultaneously considering the metering section and the die. The finite difference method and the finite volume method are applied to the metering section and the die, respectively. The zonal method is used to couple the metering section and the die. To investigate the effect of die on the characteristics of heat and fluid flow in the single screw extruder, the pressure back flow is included in the analysis. The screw-tip rotation is also considered by employing the quasi 3-dimensional die model. The present results are compared with the numerical and experimental data available in the literatures.

The cross section shape of intermediate die is one of important parameters to obtain dimensional accuracy of final product in shaped drawing process. Until now it has been designed by the experience or trial and error of the expert. In this study, the cross section shape of intermediate die fur spline shape is determined by the electronic field analysis, shape factor method. The result of the electronic field analysis, shape factor method has been compared with that of the present method. The effects of cross section shape on the dimensional accuracy were investigated by using FE analysis. And then the multi-stage shaped drawing experiments were performed to verify the results of FE analysis. As a result, the cross section shape from the electronic field analysis had the good dimensional accuracy. The electronic field analysis can be used for the method to obtain the cross section shape of intermediate die in shaped drawing process.

In this paper, an optimization study on a helicopter rotor blade cross-section was made. Generalization was made to the baseline cross-section to simplify the analysis. To have better performance in aeroelastic response, with the aerodynamic center being the origin of the baseline, the distance between aerodynamic center and shear center, and the distance between mass center and shear center of the blade were minimized. For efficient searching of optimum solutions over the design space, grid search method, which is a method of graphical search was used. Two design variables, radius of balancing weight at leading edge, and offset of the spar from leading edge were selected for the study. Cubic spline interpolation method was used to accommodate searching of the optimum solution. 2-Leveled searching system was devised in accordance with the interpolation method. Optimum solution was found to show 6% decrease in both distance between aerodynamic center and shear center, and mass center and shear center to the baseline.

In this study, we considered the method evaluation the flexibility of joint area including member with circular section. We regarded the flexibility of joint area as translational and rotational springs for the purpose of expressing local deformation. We verified this method by the use of normal mode analysis. We also calculated this joint area occurring in penetration so as to apply this method to other cases. Compare with the shell element model. we can the considerably approximate values.

The purpose of this study is to develop the simplified model of the crankshaft in the large marine engine for dynamic analysis. Because the actual engine system is under complex dynamic loading condition and it has multi-cylinder, the dynamic analysis is purchased at a high computation cost. In spite of this burden, the dynamic analysis must be perfonned to assure structural integrity of operating marine engine. Therefore, simplification of the analytic model is necessary for dynamic analysis. Beam-mass model, which is generated with the section property method, is the model simplified effectively. Section property method can provide desired section information by optimization technique. By applying beam-mass model to the crankshaft in the large marine engine, the usefulness of the proposed method was proven.
