Nowadays, it is required for naval ships to estimate 3D underwater radiated noise pattern in all direction at peak frequencies of hull vibration for the reduction of being detected and doing the effective operation. For this purpose, the numerical method has to be developed to calculate 3D underwater radiated noise pattern with experimental data. It is very difficult to obtain the experimental data for the real ship. Alternative to get the experimental results is to use NAH(near-field acoustic holography) in acoustic tank with experimental model. Application of NAH in acoustic tank for the experimental model needs some investigation of reflection wave from the wall of the acoustic tank and unmeasured zone of the experimental model due to the supporting structure for it. In this study, the effect of reflection wave in the acoustic tank and unmeasured area of the experimental model when using the NAH was investigated with experiment and numerical model. From these, it is known for the error due to reflection wave can be reduced when the distance between the measurement plane and source is being shorten. Also, unmeasured area of the experimental model gives rise to some error in the estimation of the far-field acoustic pressure.

This study was aimed at the improvement of the effluent quality of municipal wastewater treatment plant by Oenanthe javanica and Bio-string media. The results were compared with conventional sedimentation tank and pilot sedimentation plant. In this study BOD as organic pollutants, SS, Nitrogen and Phosphorus were tested to evaluate the removal efficiencies for the advanced treatment. The result were as follow: in the Pilot Plant experiment, Tank 2 was fairly high removal efficiency as compared with Tank 1. The removal efficiency of BOD and SS in Tank 2 were as a range of $7.9%{\sim}38.8%,\;14.3%{\sim}60.0%$ and the removal efficiency of T-N, T-P were a range of $9.6%{\sim}31.5%,\;33.0%{\sim}80.0%$ respectively. The removal efficiency of T-P and SS were much higher than BOB and T-N.

The objective of this paper is to suggest a new method of a wind turbine performance test. The performance test of a wind turbine is generally carried out in a wind tunnel. The test needs not only a high-accuracy measuring system but also durable structure to withstand high speed turbine rotation and wind flow. Therefore, we tried turbine performance test using a towing tank to improve stability and reliability. Because a turbine rotates more slowly and generates more torque in the water than in the wind tunnel under similarity conditions. In this study, we developed turbine performance test systems and verified the turbine test method using a towing tank through comparing results of the wind tunnel and the towing tank test.

It is very difficult to maintain the desired tank level without any overflow or any shortage in a dangerous shemical plant and in a cooling one. Futhermore, because its dynamics are very complicate and nonlinear, it is impossible to realize the precise control using the accurate mathematical model which can be applied to the various peration modes. Nonetheless, the sliding mode controller(SMC) is known as having the robust variable structures for the nonlinear control system with the parametric perturbations and with the rapid disturbances. But the adaptive tuning algorithms for their parameters are not satisfactory. Therefore, in this paper, a Real Variable Elitist Genetic Algorithm based Sliding Mode Controller (RVEGA SMC) for the precise control of the coupled tank level was tried. The SMC's switching parameters were optimized easily and rapidly by RVEGA. The simulation results showed that the tank level could be satisfactorily controlled without and overshoot and any steady-state error by the proposed RVEGA SMC.

다양한 목적의 장기유출분석에 많이 적용되고 있는 4단 Tank 모형의 증발산관련 입력자료는 증발접시자료를 이용하거나 또는 장기간의 유량과 강수량의 차이로 정의되는 월별 손실량을 계산한 결과를 사용하고 있다. 증발접시자료는 자료 구득문제와 신뢰성 문제 등으로 인해 적용사례가 적고 통상 인근 관측지점의 손실량을 계산하고 이를 전이하여 적용하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 일증발산량 산정방법은 장기적인 유량 자료를 보유한 인근 관측지점이 있어야 적용할 수 있다는 점과 관측지점의 자료 신뢰성에 따라 유출결과에 큰 영향을 미칠수 있는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 Hamon 방법과 Jensen-Haise 방법 및 FAO Penman-Monteith 방법을 검토하여 Tank 모형 계산에 필요한 실제증발산량을 산정할 수 있는 방안에 대해 모색하였다. 분석결과 유역별 실제손실량은 지형적인 영향을 받는 것으로 분석되었으며, 이를 통해 잠재증발산량을 실제증발산량으로 보정하는 월별보정계수를 지형인자로부터 추정하는 방법을 제안하였다.

Increasing usage of tank cars and their intrinsic instability due to sloshing of contents have caused growing maintenance costs as well as more frequent hazards and defects like derailment and fatigue of bogies and axels. Therefore, varieties of passive solutions have been represented to improve dynamical parameters. In this task, assuming 22 degrees of freedom, dynamic analysis of partially filled tank car traveling on a curved track is investigated. In order to consider stochastic geometry of track; irregularities have been derived randomly by Mont Carlo method. More over the fluid tank model with 1 degree of freedom is also presented by equivalent mechanical approach in terms of pendulum. An active suspension system for described car is designed by using linear quadratic optimal control theory to decrease destructive effects of fluid sloshing. Eventually, the performance of the active suspension system has been compared with that of the passive one and a study is carried out on how active suspension may affect the dynamical parameters such as displacements and Nadal's derailment index.

Even though, tanks are used at the many industry plants, it is very difficult to control the tank level without any overflow and shortage; moreover, cause of its complication of dynamics and nonlinearity, it's impossible to realize the accurate control using the mathematical model which can be applied to the various operation modes. However, the sliding mode controller(SMC) is known as having the robust variable structures for the nonlinear control systems with the parametric perturbations and with the sudden disturbances, but the auto-tuning of parameters was a problem. Therefore, in this paper, a Genetic Algorithm based Sliding Mode Controller (GA-SMC) for the precise control of the coupled tank level was tried. GA optimized the SMCs switching parameters easily and rapidly. The simulation results are shown that the tank level could be satisfactorily controlled with less overshoot and steady-stale error by the proposed GA-SMC.

In this paper, a theoretical study is carried out on the hydroelastic vibration of a rectangular tank wall. It is assumed that the tank wall is clamped along the plate edges. The fluid velocity potential is used for the simulation of fluid domain and to obtain the added mass due to wall vibration. In addition, the vibration characteristics of stiffened wall of the rectangular tank are investigated. Assumed mode method is utilized to the stiffened plate model and hydrodynamic force is obtained by the proposed approach. The coupled natural frequencies are obtained from the relationship between kinetic energies of a wall including fluid and the potential energy of the wall. The theoretical result is compared with the three-dimensional finite element method and then added mass effect is discussed due to tank length and potential mode.

본 연구에서는 SCE-UA(Shuffled Complex Evolution-University Arizona) 매개변수 최적화 기법을 이용하여 TANK 모형의 매개변수를 추정할 경우 SCE-UA 기법의 적용성을 검토하고 실제 관측유량에 대해 적용하고자 한다. 이를 위해 임의매개변수를 4단 TANK 모형의 유출결과를 관측치로 가정하고 역으로 SCE-UA 기법을 이용하여 전역 최적해 추정 능력을 검증하였다. 또한 실제 유역에 대한 적용성 평가를 위해 소양강 댐 상류 유역을 대상유역으로 선정 하였으며 관측유량을 보정과 검정기간으로 나누어 추정된 매개변수의 정확도를 평가하였다. 향후 수문성분 분리 과정을 통해 각 유출 성분별 매개변수 최적화를 수행하고자 하며 이러한 결과는 유출 성분자료가 부족한 우리나라에서 보다 정확한 수자원 관리를 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, there are many equipment of electricity, electronics, and communication which need to grounding in the building. When the electric current flows into a certain grounding system in the same building, the potential rise of other grounding system is possible to be affected by its potential rise. This potential interference was affected by the surface potential, it is deeply related whit the electrode shape. In this paper, basic formula is deduced on the basis of both electrodes surface potential of grounding electrode in a source of the potential interference and groundidng electrode which receive the potential interference. Therefore the degree of potential interference as multiple groundidng electrode can be verified the simulated results by means of the simple model in advance. This is for investigating the grounding resistance of grounding electrodes, the experiment was performed with model-scale of the grounding system and the scaled model grounding system was to this experiment using a water tank of a stainless steel-hemisphere shape. since mesh electrodes have been widely in the general building, we're tried to analyze that this water tank model and it's simulation as well.
