The work presented in this paper concerns the aerodynamic characteristics and compression wave generated in a tunnel when a high speed train enters it. A large number of solutions have been proposed to reduce the amplitude of the pressure gradient in tunnels and some of the most efficient solutions consist of (a) addition ofa blind hood, (b) addition of inclined part at the entrance, and (c) holes in the ceiling of the tunnel. These are numerically studied by using the three-dimensional unsteady compressible Euler equation solver with ALE, CFD code, based on FEM method. Computational results showed that the smaller inclined angle leads to the lower pressure gradient of compression wave front. This study indicated that the most efficient slant angle is in the range from $30^{\circ}$ to $50^{\circ}$. The maximum pressure gradient is reduced by $26.81\%$ for the inclined angle of $30^{\circ}$ as compared to vertical entry. Results also showed that maximum pressure gradient can be reduced by $15.94\%$ in blind hood entry as compared to $30^{\circ}$ inclined tunnel entry. Furthermore, the present analysis showed that inclined slant angle has little effect on aerodynamic drag. Comparison of the pressure gradient between the inclined tunnel hood and the vertical entry with air vent holes indicated that the optimum inclined tunnel hood is much more effective way in reducing pressure gradient and increasing the pressure rise time.

Interest in renewable energy is rapidly growing around the world. One of the most popular renewable energy sources is solar power, and photovoltaic (PV) systems are the most representative route for generating solar energy. However, with the growing adoption of solar power systems, the demand for land on which to install these systems has increased, which has caused environmental degradation. Recently, floating PV systems have been designed to utilize idle water surface areas of dams, rivers, and oceans. Because floating PV systems will be exposed to harsh environmental stresses, the safety of such systems should be secured before installation. In this study, the structural robustness of a floating PV system was analyzed by conducting numerical simulation to investigate whether the system can withstand harsh environmental stresses, such as wind and wave loads. Additionally, conventional wind and wave load predictions based on the design method and the simulation results were compared. The comparison revealed that the design method overestimated wind and wave loads. The total drag of the PV system was significantly overestimated by the conventional design criteria, which would increase the cost of the mooring system. The simulation offers additional advantages in terms of identifying the robustness of the floating PV system because it considers real-world environmental factors.

파랑하중하의 지반내 간극수압의 정확한 평가는 연안구조물에서 지반의 안정성을 검토하는데 중요한 요소이다. 파$\cdot$구조물 지반의 상호간섭에 대한 대부분의 기존 수치모델은 파동장과 지반부를 분리하여 해석하는 Hybrid기법을 적용하고 있기 때문에, 보다 고정도로 이들의 상호간섭을 모의하기 위해서는 파랑하중하에서 파$\cdot$구조물$\cdot$지반을 일체화한 수치모델의 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 투과층의 다양한 기하학적인 형태에 따라 층류저항까지 고려한 모델화 된 유체저항을 도입하여 파 구조물 지반의 비선형동적응답을 해석하기 위한 직접수치해석기법을 새롭게 제안하였다 직접수치해석기법은 Hybrid기법과는 달리 유체와 다공질매체의 접합면에서 특별한 경계조건을 필요로 하지 않는다. 파$\cdot$구조물$\cdot$지반의 상호간섭에 대해 기존의 수리실험결과와 본 연구의 계산결과를 비교함으로써 좋은 일치성을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 새롭게 제안된 본 수치기법은 파 구조물 지반의 비선형동적응답을 평가하는 유용한 기법으로 판단된다.

3파 상호작용은 천수파 또는 유한 수심 풍파의 경우에만 중요한 것으로 알려져 왔다. 파랑 성분간의 에너지 전달에 의한 풍파의 성장 관점에서 볼 때 심해에서 3파 상호작용은 4파 상호작용에 비해 별로 중요하지 않다. 그러나, 심해에서도, 특히 풍파 성장의 초기 단계에서는, 3파 상호작용이 중요할 수 있는데, 이는 3파 상호작용이 쇄파에 결정적인 영향을 미치는 파형경사, 수면 위에서의 공기 흐름의 항력, 선박의 항해 등과 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 일련의 실험실 실험 결과를 제시하고, 이에 대한 bispectrum 분석을 통하여 심해 풍파의 3파 상호작용을 고찰한다. 스펙트럼 첨두 주파수에서의 bicoherence와 파형경사가 거의 정비례하는 것으로 나타나는데, 이는 파봉이 뽀족하고 파곡이 밋밋한, 경사가 큰 파가 3파 상호작용의 결과임을 나타낸다. Bicoherence 및 파형경사 모두가 파랑 성장의 초기 단계에서는 파령에 따라 증가하다가 파랑이 발달함에 따라 다시 작아진다. 파랑 성장의 초기 단계에서 3파 상호작용에 의하여 발달된 스펙트럽 2차 첨두의 에너지가 그 이후에는 4파 상호작용에 의해 주변의 주파수들로 재분배되는 것으로 추측된다.

In the present study, the coupled dynamic response of a Submerged Floating Tunnel (SFT) and mooring lines under regular waves is solved by using two independent numerical simulation methods, OrcaFlex and CHARM3D, in time domain. Variations of Buoyancy to Weight Ratio (BWR), wave steepness/period, and water/submergence depth are considered as design and environmental parameters in the study. Two different mooring-line configurations, vertical and inclined, are studied to find an optimum design in terms of limiting tunnel motions and minimizing mooring-line tension. The numerical results are successfully validated by direct comparison against published experimental data. The results show that tunnel motions and tether tensions grow with wave height and period and decrease with submergence depth. The inclined mooring system is more effective in restricting tunnel motions compared to the vertical mooring system. Overall, the present study demonstrates the feasibility of this type of structure as an alternative to traditional bridges or under-seabed tunnels.

A Computational study was carried out in order to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of circular cylinder moving near the wavy wall at a low Reynolds number of 50. Lattice Boltzmann method was used to simulate the flow field and immersed boundary method was combined to represent the moving cylinder and wavy wall regardless of the constructed grid in the domain. The aerodynamics characteristics of the cylinder moving near the wavy wall were represented by the comparing the lifting coefficients with various altitudes (H/D) and wave length and amplitudes of wavy wall. It indicated that the twice of increasing-decreasing variations of lifting coefficient are obtained while the cylinder moves near the wavy wall. The first variation is obtained where the cylinder locates near the peak of the wavy wall. Another variation occurs when the distance to the wavy wall becomes longer after passing the peak. It was also classified that three different patterns of relation between the lifting and drag coefficient of the cylinder. However, the classification is limited to the case of the same order of altitude, amplitude and wave length of the wavy wall.

An aquaculture system for feeding the caged fishes in the open water is suggested for ocean application. Survival and operation conditions are defined at the conceptual design. Wave and current drag forces are discussed to determine the proper dimension of the aquaculture system and the related mooring system. Second order wave drift force at the survival condition is the dominant force, which be reduced by minimizing the superstructure open to the surface. Automation in feeding, sorting, cleaning is introduced to use the ongoing technology for quality product. The suggested system has advantage compared to onshore culturing, but not to shallow water culturing system. There is room for real application in future by the countries, such as Korea and Japan, which are in short of fish supply and have willingness to venture towards the ocean aquaculture.

Purpose of the present study is to develop a computational design program for shape optimization, combining the numerical optimization technique with the flow analysis code. The present methodology is then validated in three cases of aerodynamic shape optimization. In the numerical optimization, a feasible direction optimization algorithm and shape functions are considered. In the flow analysis, the Navier-Stokes equations are discretized by a cell-centered finite volume method, and Roe's flux difference splitting TVD scheme and ADI method are used. The developed design code is applied to a transonic channel flow over a bump, and an external flow over a NACA0012 airfoil to minimize the wave drag induced by shock waves. Also a separated subsonic flow over a NACA0024 airfoil is considered to determine a maximum allowable thickness of the airfoil without separation.

The dynamic behaviour of a marine riser was studied theoretically and experimentally. In linear analysis, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the riser were obtained from the experiment and they were found to be in good agreement with theoretical results by using a simple asymptotic formula. In nonlinear ananlysis including viscous drag and large displacement, a numerical-perturbation technique based on the derived linear asymptotic solutions is used to predict the displacements and stresses of the riser in harmonic motion. These results were also compared with experimental data and found to be in general in good agreement.
