  • Even though the relative importance of length scale of flow system allow us to simplify three dimensional flow problem to one or two dimensional representation, many systems still require three dimensional analysis. The objective of this study is to develop an efficient and accurate finite element model for analyzing and predicting three dimensional flow features in natural rivers and to offend to model spreading of pollutants and transport of sediments in the future. Firstly, three dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the hydrostatic pressure assumption in generalized curvilinear coordinates were combined with the kinematic free-surface condition. Secondly. to simulate realistic high Reynolds number flow, the model employed the Streamline Upwind/Petrov-Galerkin(SU/PG) scheme as a weighting function for the finite element method in conjunction with an appropriate turbulence model(Smagorinsky scheme for the horizontal plain and Mellor-Yamada scheme for the vertical direction). Several tests is performed for the purpose of validation and verification of the developed model. A simple rectangular channel, 5-shaped and U-shaped channel are used for tests and comparisons are made with RMA-10 model. Runs for each case is converged stably without a oscillation and calculated water-surface deformation, longitudinal and transversal velocities, and velocity vector fields are in good agreement with the results of RMA-10 model.

  • When analyzing field or optimizing the shape of electrode in three dimensional space by using the surface charge method, we need to divide finely the surface of electrode into surface element like triangle or rectangle. In this case, there exist any variables in field analysis or field optimization. In particular, smoothness on the surface of optimized shape is not good. Recently, A paper is published where introducing NURB curve to field analysis and field optimization about two dimensional space model and axial symmetric three dimensional space model results in reduced variables, enhenced accuracy and improved smoothness. NURB curve has some useful properties like continuity, controllability and locality. Therefore in this paper, in order to improve the demerits of the established optimization method for three dimensional space models, the NURB surface that has same properties in common with NURB curve is used to analyze and optimize simple model.

  • A three dimensional model was developed to analyze the mold filling and solidification in the casting processes. The model uses the VOF method for the calculation of the free surface and the modified Equivalent Specific Heat method for the treatment of the latent heat evolution. The solution procedure is based on the SIMPLER algorithm. The complete model has been validated using the exact solutions for phase change heat transfer and the experimental results of broken water column. The three-dimensional model has been applied to the benchmark test and the results were compared to those from experiment, a two-dimensional analysis, and another three dimensional numerical model.

  • A three dimensional numerical model was developed to analyze the mold filling and solidification processes straightforwardly in a casting processes. On the basis of the SIMPLER algorithm, the VOF method and the Equivalent Specific Heat method were adopted to deal with the free surface behavior and the latent heat evolution. The complete model has been validated using exact solutions and experimental results. The importance of three-dimensional effects has been highlighted by comparing the results from the three-dimensional analysis with those given by a two-dimensional analysis.

  • Many people are exposed to accidents by vehicles or sports. The most frequent injuries by these accidents is concerned with a knee joint. The three-dimensional surface model of a knee is needed for dynamic analysis of knee motion and knee reconstruction. three-dimensional motion data of a knee joint were obtained using X-ray and precise magnetic sensors. The surface data of a femur and a tibia were obtained using cross-sectional pictures by CT. The three-dimensional surface models of a femur and a tibia were made by the method of optimal triangular patch. Using obtained motion data, we simulated the motion of three-dimensional knee joint model.

  • An one dimensional atmosphere-canopy-soil interaction model is developed to estimate of the heat budget parameter in the atmospheric boundary layer. The canopy model is composed of the three balance equations of energy, temperature, moisture at ground surface and canopy layer with three independent variables of Tf(foliage temperature), Tg(ground temperature), and qg(ground specific humidity). The model was verilied by comparative study with OSUID(Oregon State University One Dimensional Model) proved in HAPEX-MOBILHY experiment. Also we applied this model in two dimensional land-sea breeze circulation. According to the results of this study, surface characteristics considering canopy acted importantly upon the simulation of meso-scale circulation. The factors which used in the numerical experiment are as follows ; the change for a sort of soil(sand and peat), the change for shielding factor, and the change for a kind of vegetation.

  • Objective: The aim of this study was to assess artifacts induced by metallic restorations in three-dimensional (3D) dental surface models derived by cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Methods: Fifteen specimens, each with four extracted human premolars and molars embedded in a plaster block, were scanned by CBCT before and after the cavitated second premolars were restored with dental amalgam. Five consecutive surface models of each specimen were created according to increasing restoration size: no restoration (control) and small occlusal, large occlusal, disto-occlusal, and mesio-occluso-distal restorations. After registering each restored model with the control model, maximum linear discrepancy, area, and intensity of the artifacts were measured and compared. Results: Artifacts developed mostly on the buccal and lingual surfaces. They occurred not only on the second premolar but also on the first premolar and first molar. The parametric values increased significantly with increasing restoration size. Conclusions: Metallic restorations induce considerable artifacts in 3D dental surface models. Artifact reduction should be taken into consideration for a proper diagnosis and treatment planning when using 3D surface model derived by CBCT in dentofacial deformity patients.

  • This study was intended to develop the design program of the working surface of moldboard-plow by use of the computer-aided design. The mathematical model of the working surfaces of moldboard-plows by use of computer graphics was developed and plotted in two dimension on three major planes. The surfaces of moldboard-plows were represented with "B-spline surface fitting" by selecting the twenty-five three-dimensional data that could well describe the working surface of moldboard-plow. The shape of moldboard-plow on three major planes was drawn for varied design parameters. The representation of the mathematical model for the working surfaces of various types of moldboard-plows was manipulated by translation, rotation and scaling about arbitrary axes in space. By using three-dimensional graphics techique to describe moldboard-plows, it was capable of plotting the three-dimensional shape of moldboard-plow easily and quickly in comparison with the existing design methods that were difficult to grasp the shape of moldboard-plow as a whole. The design theories of moldboard plow and three-dimensional computer graphic technique were applied to find out the improved reversible Jaenggi bottom. It was resulted in the newly developed shape of Jaenggi which may be used for improving the performance compared to existing ones.

  • In this paper, a model of neural circuit was proposed, which abstracts the depth information in two images gotten from right and left retinas. The proposed neural circuit corresponds to binocular stereo vision based on psychologic and physiological knowledge, and we examine a restoration method of three-dimensional surface. In case of drawing a disparity based on characteristics of images, we can not abstract the depth information correctly if resemblant characteristics are repeated on the boundary region of an object. A binocular disparity is decided in a model of neural circuit by abstraction, synthesis, and correction of a disparity. And we propose a method which restores three-dimensional shape by correcting a depth information, and also restores a three-dimensional surface by mapping a left input image on the restored three-dimensional shape. And we confirmed that the computation time for disparity abstraction can be greatly reduced through the simulation.

  • In this study, a passive control using a boat-tail device is conducted for a three-dimensional car model in ground proximity. We consider various boat-tails and investigate the mechanism of drag reduction by them. By varying the length and slant angle of boat-tail, we obtain drag reductions up to 40%. From the oil-surface flow visualization and hot-wire measurement, the drag reduction by the boat-tail is characterized by the shear-layer instability and reattachment on the boat-tail, forming a small separation bubble at the upstream part of boat-tail surface, resulting in the delay of main separation and drag reduction. At high slant angles, the flow fully separates and drag is nearly same as that of no control.
