  • A simple mathematical model for predicting fixed bed adsorption dynamics is described. The model is characterized by a linear adsorption isotherm and a linear driving force expression for mass transfer. Its analytic solution can be approximated with an algebraic equation in closed form which is easily evaluated by spreadsheet computation. To demonstrate one application of the fixed bed model, a previously published adsorption system is used as a case study in this work. The adsorption system examined here describes chromium breakthrough in a fixed bed adsorber packed with imidazole functionalized adsorbent particles and is characterized by a nonlinear adsorption isotherm. However, the equilibrium behavior of the fixed bed adsorber is in essence governed by a linear adsorption isotherm due to the use of a low influent chromium concentration. It is shown that chromium breakthrough is predicted reasonably well by the fixed bed model. The model's parameters can be easily extracted from independent batch experiments. The proposed modeling approach is very simple and rapid, and only Excel is used for computation.

  • This paper presents an application of Unified Modeling Language(UML) software technique for developing transmission pricing evaluation package. Also, this paper describes a transmission pricing algorithm applicable to a large-scale power system. The usage-based transmission pricing mechanism is very complex since it requires power flow analysis, fault current analysis, sensitivity evaluation of a transmission line, penalty factors calculation, transmission asset databases, and cost allocation rules, etc. For the efficient and flexible development of the transmission pricing package, a UML. approach is applied, which is composed of a use-case diagram, interaction diagram, class diagram, and package diagram using Rational Rose Unified Process(RUP). The designed transmission pricing package can be efficiently modified and reused as the market environments evolves since it is designed by Object-Oriented Programming(OOP).

  • In mass customization, the focus is variety and customization through flexibility and quick responsiveness. Mass customizers seek to provide personalized, custom-designed products at low prices to give customers exactly what they want and to provide sufficient variety in products and services. The idea of the product family is the most adequate approach to realize mass customization. An understanding of customer needs using functional decomposition becomes necessary to enhance the performance of the product family. This paper focuses on functional architecture modeling based on customer need regarding sub-functions for the product family. A quantitative functional model captures product functionality and customer need. Based on customer need ratings and sub-function, a product-function matrix was created. Additionally, a product-product matrix was generated to provide a similarity index among product families. A case study for implementing the functional architecture modeling was performed on the single use cameras.

  • Recently, many scan projects are gradually increasing for maintenance, construction. The scan data contains useful data, which can be generated in the target application from the facility, space. However, modeling the scan data required for the application requires a lot of cost. In example, the converting 3D point cloud obtained from scan data into 3D object is a time-consuming task, and the modeling task is still very manual. This research proposes Scan-to-Geometry Mapping Rule Definition (S2G-MD) which maps point cloud data to geometry for irregular building plane objects. The S2G-MD considers user use case variability. The method to define rules for mapping scan to geometry is proposed. This research supports the reverse engineering semi-automatic process for the building planar geometry from the user perspective.

  • Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans appears to be a valuable method for assessing pulp canal configuration. The aim of this report is to describe endodontic treatment of a mandibular second premolar with aberrant pulp canal morphology detected by CBCT and confirmed by 3D modeling. An accessory canal was suspected during endodontic treatment of the mandibular left second premolar in a 21 year old woman with a chief complaint of pulsating pain. Axial cross-sectional CBCT scans revealed that the pulp canal divided into mesiobuccal, lingual, and buccal canals in the middle third and ended as four separate foramina. 3D modeling confirmed the anomalous configuration of the fused root with a deep lingual groove. Endodontic treatment of the tooth was completed in two appointments. The root canals were obturated using lateral compaction of gutta-percha and root canal sealer. The tooth remained asymptomatic and did not develop periapical pathology until 12 months postoperatively. CBCT and 3D modeling enable preoperative evaluation of aberrant root canal systems and facilitate endodontic treatment.

  • In this research, the automated system for 3D modeling and stability evaluation of caisson was developed. It is possible to build a BIM model while examining the stability of the structures to improve the practical use of BIM technology. This study analyzed industry cases and guidelines for caisson stability evaluation and BIM-based modeling. As a result, the data for calculating the stability evaluation of caisson as well as the modeling parameters were derived. In particular, the automated system for 3D modeling, which reflects more than 30 parameters, allows for BIM models for various types of the caisson, such as open-cell caisson, open-cell caisson with uneven, slit caisson, slit caisson with uneven, and curved caisson. The study tested the proposed system using case studies and found that it helps not only to automate the BIM model with various caisson types as parameters but also to make partial shape changes accessible. The study also confirmed that the stability evaluation can be quickly carried out with shapes changed. Finally, the study results suggest that the proposed method should complete the task seven times as fast as the conventional work method.
