In this paper, quasi-static FDTD method is implemented by FORTRAN programming, and it is used for analysis of body induced current in middle frequencies. The quasi-static FDTD program is validated by comparing the calculation result with analytic solution of the test model, to which it is difficult to apply conventional FDTD. It is confirmed that the time-step is reduced by $5.68{\times}10^6$ times. Using validated numerical technique, body induced current distribution in high resolution 3-D human model is calculated for 20[kHz] magnetic field exposure and 1[MHz] electric field exposure. Also, the effect of grounding condition of both feet on the distribution and amplitude of the induced current is analyzed. It is expected that this research can be applied to various fields including safety assessment of body induced current and development of diagnosis devices using bio-electricity.

This paper presents a computer design program for In-Core Instrumentation(ICI) guide tube routing and locations on support system, and checking the interference between ICI guide tubes in the reactor coolant system of typical Pressurized Water Reactor. The program, ICITRIC, has been written in FORTRAN language which is available under UNIX environment. Results of this program are compared with those of the commercial code, PATRAN, and both results are almost same Also the results may provide input data for ICI system static and dynamic analysis performed by the commercial code, SUPER PIPE. This program can simulate ICI guide tube routing and locations on support system, and checking the interference between ICI guide tubes. Through a process of iteration, the designer can apply initial conditions, and modify the routing until satisfied with the overall system performance.

In order to predict properly the effects of ground motion associated wi th earthquakes on underground radioactive waste disposal facilities, understanding of the structural behavior of an underground opening in discontinuous rook masses subjected to dynamic loadings is essential. Therefore, this paper includes literature review on computational models for discontinuous rook masses and on mathematical models for the structural analysis of underground openings. Then, structural analyses of underground openings using the distinct element computer program written for the static and dynamic analysis of discontinuous rook masses have been performed.

An analysis model for off-design performance of radial inflow turbines with or without variable area guide vane is developed, where two important factors in loss models, total pressure ratio between variable area guide vane exit and scroll casing inlet and rotor loss coefficient are determined without experimental data. The analysis results show that the predicted trends with or without variable area guide vane are consistent with the experimental observations. The comparison of present method with the well-known NASA off-design performance analysis program shows that the mass flow rate and static efficiency by present analysis are in good agreement with those by the NASA program. Therefore, this method can be used to predict off-design performance of radial inflow turbines with validity of the loss models used by present analysis.

To evaluate the behavior of the advanced unbonded pre-stressed concrete containment vessel (UPCCV) for one typical China nuclear power plant under Japan's March 11 earthquake, five nonlinear time history analysis and a nonlinear static analysis of a 1:10 scale UPCCV structure have been carried out with MSC.MARC finite element program. Comparisons between the analytical and experimental results demonstrated that the developed finite element model can predict the earthquake behavior of the UPCCV with fair accuracy. The responses of the 1:10 scale UPCCV subjected to the 11 March 2011 Japan earthquakes recorded at the MYG003 station with the peak ground acceleration (PGA) of 781 gal and at the MYG013 station with the PGA of 982 gal were predicted by the dynamic analysis. Finally, a static analysis was performed to seek the ultimate load carrying capacity for the 1:10 scale UPCCV.

This paper describes a $C^{{+}{+}}$ free vibration analysis program of structures for personal computer. This program was developed by object oriented programming method which is the latest trend in programming practice. The object-oriented programming method which has the superior reuseability and expansibility to procedural programming provides various choice of menus and easy modification of the program, and reduces the development time and size of the program. This object-oriented free vibration analysis program written in $C^{{+}{+}}$ language consists of Vector and Matrix classes, Structural Analysis and GUI classes. The efficiency and validity of the program were examined by solving several numerical examples. The static and free vibration analyses of the framed structures were satisfactorily performed by this program on a personal computer.

Since the mega frame structure has significant numbers of elements and nodes, it takes tremendous times and computer memories to analyze and design the structures. Therefore, the exclusive structural analysis program for mega frame system is developed to reduce the efforts and time required for the analysis and design of mega frame structure. To this end, an efficient modelling technique using the characteristics of mega frame structures and an efficient analytical model, which uses a few DOFs selected by the user using the matrix condensation method. are developed in tins study. Static and dynamic analyses are conducted using an example structure.

Combustion instability in solid-propellant rocket motors depends on the balance between acoustic energy gains and losses of the system. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the capability of the program which predicts the standard longitudinal stability using acoustic modes based on linear stability analysis and T-burner test results of propellants. Commercial ANSYS 5.0A program can be used to calculate the acoustic characteristic of a rocket motor. The linear stability prediction was compared with the static firing test results of rocket motors.

In recent times, the subterranean caverns for storing crude oils and oil products are increasingly needed. The elasto-VIScoplastic DYNamic finite element analysis program(VISDYN) has been developed in order to investigate dynamic responses of the storage cavity. And validity of the program is studied through a numerical example. Mohr-Coulomb yield criterion is adopted and associated flow rule is assumed. Geometrically nonlinear behaviour is taken into account using a total Lagrangian formulation. In dynamic deformation reponses, the difference between the steady state displacements and the unsteady state ones by the static analysis can be neglected.

This paper aims at calculating optimum design dimensions to minimize the weight satisfied strain and stress intensity of the frame while loading maximum weight into a mechanical press in the static condition. Analysis of the frame was carried out by using the FEM, then the optimum condition was obtained by using these data. As modeling in the finite element analysis has great impact on the reliablity of analysis results, the analyzed object was selected a 150-ton mechanical press of J Company, the part little affected to structural rigidity was simplified, the load condition was considered in the only maximum load, the boundary condition was used by giving symmetric displacement due to symmetric boundary condition, the finite element was applied a linear membrane element. An intermediate processor program applied the normal ANSYS to analyze finite elements was developed, and the design sensitivity was calculated. This program was applied to the optimum design.
