A Computational code has been developed in order to design axial fans by the numerical optimization techniques incorporated with flow analysis code solving three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation. The steepest descent method and the conjugate gradient method are used to look for the search direction in the design space, and the golden section method is used for one-dimensional search. To solve the constrained optimization problem, sequential unconstrained minimization technique, SUMT, is used with imposed quadratic extended interior penalty functions. In the optimization of two-dimensional cascade design, the ratio of drag coefficient to lift coefficient is minimized by the design variables such as maximum thickness, maximum ordinate of camber and chord wise position of maximum ordinate. In the application of this numerical optimization technique to the design of an axial fan, the efficiency is maximized by the design variables related to the sweep angle distributed by quadratic function along the hub to tip of fan.

일반 교량에 주로 사용되는 콘크리트 바닥판 시공을 위해서는 동바리, 거푸집 등을 설치하고 철근 배근 후 콘크리트를 타설하는 방법이 사용되어왔다. 그러나 기존 콘크리트 바닥판 시공은 계절 및 기후의 영향을 많이 받는다. 또한 시공과정에서 많은 인력이 요구되고 시공 안전성 확보를 위한 노력이 필요한 실정이다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위하여 최근에 프리캐스트 바닥판을 이용한 교량 시공이 늘어나고 있는 추세이다. 프리캐스트 바닥판은 공장에서 선제작한 후 현장에서 조립하여 시공한다. 따라서 프리캐스트 바닥판 시공은 계절 및 기후의 영향을 최소화 하여 공기를 단축할 수 있고, 공장제작에 따른 양호한 품질도 보장된다. 또한 인력이 적게 요구되면서 시공 안전성도 확보할 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 기존의 프리캐스트 바닥판은 패널의 폭이 좁고 외측 캔틸레버부의 시공 시 별도의 지보공이 필요한 단점을 갖고 있었다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 장폭 외측 프리캐스트 바닥판이 제안되었다. 장폭 외측 프리캐스트 바닥판은 패널의 폭을 늘려서 장폭의 바닥판을 만들고, 가설구조물을 이용하여 지보공 없이 시공이 가능하게 고안되었다. 본 연구에서는 장폭 외측 프리캐스트 패널 캠버 조정에 사용 될 가설구조의 현장적용을 위하여, 실험 후 유한요소해석을 수행하여 비교 및 검증하였다.

A U-80 propeller and its modified version, U-75 propeller, are used for a micro air vehicle. The performance characteristics of a U-80 propeller and a U-75 propeller have not much known in the published literature. Thus, their aerodynamic characteristics are investigated using a lifting surface numerical method. The lifting surface method is validated by comparing computed results with measured data in a wind tunnel. From the computed results, it is found that the U-75 propeller produces larger thrust with higher efficiency than the U-80 propeller. To enhance the performance of these propellers, a new propeller is designed by following the sequential design procedures with the design parameters such as hub-tip ratio, maximum camber and its position, and chord length distribution along the radial direction. The performance of the designed propeller is shown to be improved much comparing with those of both the U-80 and U-75 propellers.

The engine behavior in a transient condition is important to not only emission regulations but also fuel economy. A fast response gas analyzer can be a useful tool to investigate exhaust gas in a transient operation. It should be designed to analyze gas concentration with a short time constant by a fast sampling module and an appropriate measuring method for each emission element. In this study, a new fast sampling module is introduced and flow analysis is performed by numerical simulation. The analysis has shown the proper operating condition and the sensitivity of the module for practical application. Calculated flow to the sampling module has $0.5{\sim}4%$ error, while backflow toward the expansion tube is expected when pressure in CP (Constant Pressure) chamber is over 0.6 bar. For a stable supply of flow to the optical cell, sample gas pressure should be in the range, $0.35{\sim}1.90$ bar, when the pressure in the CP camber and the optical cell are 0.2 bar and 0.158 bar, respectively.

This study is to give more accurate information by performing the time depend ent analysis to take into account the long-term losses of precast PSC concrete bridge and analyzing the second stress, final camber and cross section stress of precast PSC caused by creep and drying shrinkage. As time goes by, the stress and deformation in the cross section vary continuously by the influence of creep and drying shrinkage. Due to this, the stress redistribution occurs and the internal force variation also happens along the point on the same cross section and with the passage of time.

This paper compares various potential based panel methods for the analysis of two-dimensional hydrofoil. The strength of singularity on each panel is assumed to be constant or linear. Robin boundary condition as well as Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions are applied to various formulations to evaluate the accuracies of the methods. Pressures and lifts are computed for various two-dimensional hydrofoil geometries and are compared with the analytic solutions. Extensive studies are performed on the local errors near the trailing edge, known to be sensitive to the foil geometry with sharp trailing edge and high camber. Robin boundary condition with the perturbation velocity potential formulation shows the best accuracy and convergence rate.

Recently, metal cases are widely used in smart phones for their luxurious color and texture. However, when a metal case is used, electric shock may occur during charging. Chip capacitors of various values are used to prevent the electric shock. However, chip capacitors are vulnerable to electrostatic discharge(ESD) generated by the human body, which often causes insulation breakdown during use. This breakdown can be eliminated with a high-voltage chip varistor over 340V, but when the varistor voltage is high, the capacitance is limited to about 2pF. If a chip capacitor with a high dielectric constant and a chip varistor with a high voltage can be combined, it is possible to obtain a new device capable of coping with electric shock and ESD with various capacitive values. Usually, varistors and capacitors differ in composition, which causes different shrinkage during co-firing, and therefore camber, internal crack, delamination and separation may occur after sintering. In addition, varistor characteristics may not be realized due to the diffusion of unwanted elements into the varistor during firing. Various elements are added to control shrinkage. In addition, a buffer layer is inserted in the middle of the varistor-capacitor junction to prevent diffusion during firing, thereby developing a co-fired product with desirable characteristics.

The purpose of this study is to consider structural issues and analyze construction sequences when constructing hanging floors supported by Mega truss. Since suspended structures were supported by the Mega truss, vertical load on suspended structures was needed to transfer from low to high. Deflection management of structures was the primary point under construction. The results of this study were as follows; The steel structures, which has relatively lighter self-weight, were constructed upwards after the base floor steel truss erection. Concrete Placing, which has relatively heavier self-weight, were performed in two phases to minimize structure's deflection. Slab was placed downwards from the top floor to lower floor whereas column was places upwards. Deflection measurements were carried out at every construction sequences.

The speed of rail vehicles become higher and higher over two decades, and China has unveiled a prototype high-speed train in October 2020 that has been able to reach 400 km/h. At such high speeds, wheel-rail force items that had previously been ignored in common computational model should be reevaluated and reconsidered. Aiming at this problem, a new model for investigating the vehicle-bridge interaction at high moving speed is proposed. Comparing with the common model, the new model was more accurate and applicable, because it additionally considers the second-order pseudo-inertia forces effect and its modeling equilibrium position was based on the initial deformed curve of bridge, which could include the influences of temperature, pre-camber, shrinkage and creep deformation, and pier uneven settlement, etc. Taking 5 km/h as the speed interval, the dynamic responses of the classical vehicle-bridge system in the speed range of 5 km/h to 400 km/h are studied. The results show that ignoring the second-order pseudo-inertia force will underestimate the dynamic response of vehicle-bridge system and make the high-speed railway bridge structure design unsafe.
