Infiltration and water flow in the upper soil layer of a deep water table aquifer are modeled for multistorm runoff events. The infiltration process is developed using the sharp wetting front model of Green and Ampt, and the following redistribution process is modeled using the gravity drained rectangular approximation. The Brooks-Corey model [Brooks and Corey, 1966] is adopted to relate the effective soil saturation, the tension head, and the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity Firstly, the infiltration and redistribution model is developed for a single stom runoff event. Then a couple of events combined for multistorm runoff events. In the later case, infiltration rate of the second rainfall is strongly influenced by the length of the rainfall hiatus and soil moisture profile.

Fluid model based numerical simulation was carried out for an inductively coupled plasma assisted sputter deposition system. Power absorption, electron temperature and density distribution was modeled with drift diffusion approximation. Effect of an electrically conducting substrate was analyzed and showed confined plasma below the substrate. Part of the plasma was leaked around the substrate edge. Comparison between the quasi-neutrality based compact model and Poisson equation resolved model showed more broadened profile in inductively coupled plasma power absorption than quasi-neutrality case, but very similar Ar ion number density profile. Electric potential was calculated to be in the range of 50 V between a Cr rod source and a conductive substrate. A new model including Cr sputtering by Ar+was developed and used in simulating Cr deposition process. Cr was modeled to be ionized by direct electron impact and showed narrower distribution than Ar ions.

The effects of three mechanisms, calcium depletion, sulphate and carbonate penetration, on the concrete degradation have been studied. The shrinking core model (SCM) and the HYDROGEOC. HEM (HGC) model have been applied to evaluate how fast the mechanisms proceed. The SCM is an analytical approximation model and the HGC is a numerical mass transport model coupled with chemical reaction. The SCM leads to more conservative results than the HGC, and turns out to be very useful in the viewpoint of simplicity and conservatism. During 300 years, calcium has been depleted within 10 cm from the concrete outer surface, and sulphate has penetrated less than 13.5 cm into the concrete. Carbonate has not penetrated own 7 cm into the concrete in contact with the bentonite, and, furthermore, its penetration into the concrete with the groundwater is negligible. Conclusively, the concrete is expected to maintain its integrity for at least 300 years that are regarded as institutional control period of intermediate and low-level radioactive waste repository.

This paper describes a numerical study of three-dimensional buoyant turbulent flow in a stairwell model with three convective differencing schemes, which include the upwind differencing scheme, the hybrid scheme and QUICK scheme. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes and energy equations are solved with a two-equation turbulence model. The Boussinesq approximation is used to model buoyancy terms in the governing equations. Three-dimensional predictions of the velocity and temperature fields are presented and are compared with experimental data. Three-dimensional simulations with each scheme have predicted the overall features of the flow fairly satisfactorily. A better agreement with experimental is achieved with QUICK scheme.

In this paper, the physics-based analytical model of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based double-gate (DG) tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) is proposed. The proposed model is derived by using the two-dimensional (2-D) Landauer formula and the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation. For improving the accuracy, nonlinear and continuous lateral energy band profile is applied to the model. 2-D density of states (DOS) and two-band effective Hamiltonian for TMD materials are also used in order to consider the 2-D nature of TMD-based TFETs. The model is validated by using the tight-binding non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF)-based quantum transport simulation in the case of monolayer molybdenum disulfide ($MoS_2$)-based TFETs.

The purpose of this paper is to prepare an unloading schedule of the raw-material-carrying vessels at Pohang port so as to minimize the total demurrages. A mixed integer programming(MIP) model was constructed, in which only three berths were considered. For the feasible application of the model an approximation approach was employed. The results of the test run of the model based on the past four-month's real data of P company revealed the company could have saved a considerable amount of demurrages, if the model had been applied during the same period. In addition, all the processes were computerized for the clerk-in-charge not only to utilize the results of this study easily but also to rearrange the schedule in quick response to any possible changes.

After the introduction of ATM as a proper technology for B-ISDN, there have been many research efforts to realize ATM networks. But a computationally tractable modelling technique which reflects diverse characteristics of the ATM traffic accurately is not available yet. In this study, we try to establish an accurate but still convenient ATM traffic model. We first introduce the modelling technique for the voice traffic based on the fluid flow approximation. Then we present a traffic model for the mixed traffic from multiple video sources and voice sources. The video source model is based on the 3 state continuous time Markov chain. The accuracy of the model is demonstrated by some comparison results with respect to simulation.

The aim of this work considers a second order point reactor kinetics model based on the P1 approximation of transport theory, called in this work as P1 point reactor model. The P1 point reactor model implicitly considers the time derivative of the neutron source which has not been thus considered previously. The inverse method to calculate the reactivity in nuclear reactors -chosen because its high accuracy- Matrix Formulation. The numerical results shown that the Matrix Formulation for the reactivity estimation constitutes a method with insignificant calculation errors.

In this paper, the use of Bayes factors and the deviance information criterion for model selection are compared in a Bayesian accelerated life testing setup. In Bayesian accelerated life testing, the most used tool for model comparison is the deviance information criterion. An alternative and more formal approach is to use Bayes factors to compare models. However, Bayesian accelerated life testing models with more than one stressor often have mathematically intractable posterior distributions and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are employed to obtain posterior samples to base inference on. The computation of the marginal likelihood is challenging when working with such complex models. In this paper, methods for approximating the marginal likelihood and the application thereof in the accelerated life testing paradigm are explored for dual-stress models. A simulation study is also included, where Bayes factors using the different approximation methods and the deviance information are compared.

Recently, as CSMA technique has been increasingly adopted in various wireless networks, extensive researches to analyze the statistical characteristics of CSMA-based wireless networks have been done. Despite the ongoing efforts, there still remain many difficulties in the analysis because of unexpectable operational behavior of CSMA. Previous literature studying CSMA networks used the concept of the carrier sensing radius to reflect the carrier sensing function. However, since the carrier sensing radius based on the protocol model is not affected by the aggregate interference from other nodes, the derived statistical models cannot avoid approximation errors especially if the network is under high interference. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to derive the carrier sensing radius considering the physical model, where the carrier sensing radius reflecting the aggregate interference is found. For the purpose of this, we analyze the aggregate interference model and the behavior of CSMA function. Based on the analysis, we propose an iterative approximation algorithm for the physical carrier sensing radius. Extensive simulations and results show that the proposed algorithm can contribute to considerably reduce the statistical modeling error of a CSMA network under various channel conditions.
