Steering characteristics is an important factor in the evaluation of vehicle quality. To estimate steering characteristics in the vehicle conceptual design stage, vehicle dynamics simulation methods are very efficient. However, it is often difficult to simulate vehicle dynamics for the specific driving scenarios in open-loop driving environment. An efficient driver-in-the-loop vehicle model will be efficient for this job. A good tire model is also very important for the accurate vehicle dynamics simulation. In this research, a driver model is used to simulate vehicle steering dynamics for a 8-dof vehicle model with STI(Systems Technology, Inc.) tire model. For the demonstration of this model, a SUV(sports utility vehicle) and a sedan were simulated.

In this study, the nano-deformation behavior of semi-solid Al-Si alloy was investigated using a molecular dynamics simulation as a part of the research on the surface crack behavior in thixoformed automobile parts. The microstructure of the grain-size controlled Al-Si alloy consists of primary and eutectic regions. In eutectic regions the crack initiation begins with initial fracture of the eutectic silicon particles and inside other intermetallic phases. Nano-deformation characteristics in the eutectic and primary phase of the grain-size controlled Al-Si alloy were investigated through the molecular dynamics simulation. The primary phase was assumed to be single crystal aluminum. It was shown that the vacancy occurred at the zone where silicon molecules were.

This study introduces the system dynamics model that simulate total operational availability when 10 equipments made of 3 major components are serviced under the constrains of the maintenance capacity level and the number of spare parts. This simulation is designed on the base of reliability engineering concept so failures of components happens with the rule of engineering factors like the mean time between failure(MTBF) of component and the next failure time of one component is effected by the conditions of other components. We analysed availability of 10 equipments under 121 constrains and executed multiple regression analysis with the simulation result. The analysis provide the managerial insight in the service fields with operation many equipments.

The purpose of this paper is the development of a fully integrated simulation package for industrial robot. The simulation package consists of kinematics, dynamics, and control. The kinematics contains trajectory plans and inverse kinematics. The dynamics combines manipulator dynamics and actuator dynamics including the effect of payloads and viscous frictions. The control is a hardware oriented scheme which contains position controller, velocity controller, current controller, and PWM generator. Thus, the simulation package can be used not only for theoretical purposes but also for development purposes in industry. Using this package, the characteristics and performances of the SCARA robot, which has been developed in GSIS, are investigated.

This work applies the equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation method to study a Lennard-Jones liquid thin film suspended in the vapor and calculates diffusion coefficients by Green-Kubo equation derived from Einstein relationship. As a preliminary test, the diffusion coefficients of the pure argon fluid are calculated by equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation. It is found that the diffusion coefficients increase with decreasing the density and increasing the temperature. When both argon liquid and vapor phases are present, the effects of the system temperature on the diffusion coefficient are investigated. It can be seen that the diffusion coefficient significantly increases with the temperature of the system.

This paper is the result of simulation modeling concerning high-level radioactive waste repository(HLRWR) and people's mind for the facility. We describe a procedure of simulation modeling for resident's policy acceptance and perceived risk of HLRWR facility by using System Dynamics approach. To Complete some complicated works, we made the 20 pieces of stock-flow diagrams based on the causal loop diagram that is a blue print of whole variables and relations. The simulation outputs clearly show that cental government efforts to siting the HLRWR will be failed if nothing to give for the region's residents. On the contrary, a monetary incentive and a regional development program help to turn this gloomy situation into a desirable and acceptable condition dramatically. Government has to prepare the schemes considering the HLRWR acceptance and total supporting program including the cash and local development programs.

We can save a lot of efforts and time to perform various kinds of multibody system dynamics simulations if the equations of motion of the multibody system can be formulated automatically. In general, the equations of motion are formulated based on Newton's $2^{nd}$law. And they can be transformed into the equations composed of independent variables by using velocity transformation matrix. In this paper the velocity transformation matrix is derived based on a topological modeling approach which considers the topology and the joint property of the multibody system. This approach is, then, used to formulate the equations of motion automatically and to implement a multibody system dynamics simulation program. To verify the the efficiency and convenience of the program, it is applied to the lifting simulation of a floating crane.

Results from a nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulation are presented for an argon liquid subject to a shear flow. The segmented molecular dynamics method and the subtraction technique used in NEMD program to reduce the thermal fluctuation noise in data are studied with different shear rates. The standard deviation in the shear stress reduced from 0.030 to 0.004 by the segmented molecular dynamics method for 50 repeated segments. On the other hand, the standard deviation of the data remained the same when the subtraction technique was applied, where as the results of shear stress by constant value in a random way.

A simulation and experimental study for energy flow dynamics of floor radiant heating system were performed. The study was done under both environmental chamber and a house with several rooms. The unsteady energy analysis method using equivalent R-C circuit and radiation heat transfer analysis of enclosure analysis method with simple structured rooms were used for computer simulation. Also, first order dynamics with time delay in analyzing the return water was considered. The results of temperature changes of the simulation study are good fit with the ones of experimental one.

이 연구에서는 Lennard-Jones (LJ) particle을 이용하여 상분리 현상을 이해하기 위한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 연구를 수행하였다. 초기에 균일하게 분포되어 있는 LJ 입자들을 시뮬레이션 하면 상대적으로 dense phase와 dilute phase로 상분리 현상이 일어나게 된다. 상분리 현상의 첫 번째 단계를 핵 생성 (nucleation) 이라고 한다. 본 연구에서는 Brownian Dynamics (BD) Simulation과 Molecular Dynamics (MD) Simulation을 이용하여 상평형 그림을 구하고 초기에 일어나는 LJ 입자들의 nucleation rates를 구하였다.
