The three-dimensional Stokes flow within a staggered screw channel is obtained by using a finite volume method. The geometry is intended to mimic the single screw extruder having staggered arrangement of flights. The flow solution is then subjected to the analysis of the stirring performance. In the analysis of the stirring performance, the stretching-mapping method developed by the author is employed for calculating the materials' stretching exponents, which are to be used in quantification of the mixing effect. The numerical results Indicate that the staggered geometry gives indeed far much better stirring-performance than the standard (nonstaggered) flight geometry. It was also shown that care must be given to the selection of the basis planes for evaluating the local stretching rate, and it turns out that the best method (H-method) has its basis plane just on the half way between the past and future evolution of fluid particles subjected to the defromation. In evaluating the stretching exponent, the expansion ratio must be considered which is one of the characteristic differences of the actual three-dimensional flows from the two-dimensionmal counterparts. The larger axial pressure-difference causes in general the smaller stirring performance while the flow rate is increased. The smaller channel length also increases the stirring performance.

To simulate the verification process using materials from a decommissioned reactor, a mock-up of the bottom-mounted instrument nozzle in the Kori 1 reactor, where the nozzle was attached to a plate by J-groove dissimilar metal welding, was fabricated. The mock-up distortion was quantified by measuring the plate surface displacement after welding. The residual stresses formed on the support plate surface and the inner surface of the nozzle were then analyzed using the hole-drilling method, contour method, and neutron diffraction. Welding simulations were performed using a 3D finite element method to validate the measured results. The measured and computed stress distributions on the support plate exhibited reasonable agreement. Conversely, the stresses on the inside of the nozzle were found to have an indisputable difference in the contour method and neutron diffraction measurements, which demonstrated strong tensile and compressive hoop stresses, respectively. The possible origins of such differences were investigated and we have provided some suggestions for a precise evaluation in the simulation. This study is expected to be useful in future research on decommissioned reactors.

요추부 척추에 기구를 시술한 유한요소 복합체 모델을 이용하여 제 4-5 요추간판에 대한 해석을 수행한 결과, 근육의 작용을 케이블과 케이블 가이드로써 단순화 모사한 follower 하중에서 수직하중인 경우보다 높은 압축력을 나타내어 더욱 안정함을 보였고 불안정성의 원인이 되는 전단력과 굽힘모멘트의 발생은 미미하였다. 장분절 고정에 의한 인접 분절에 전단력이 증가됨을 실험적으로 보였는데, 이는 장분절 고정이 퇴행성 변화 촉진에 기여할 것으로 추정된다.

이 연구에서는 추계학적 그린함수법에 의한 단층 모델을 이용하여 지진파를 합성하고 단층 파라미터의 변화에 의한 지반 운동의 차이를 평가하였다. 모멘트 규모 6.5의 단층을 예제로 선정하였고 아스페리티 면적의 통계값을 이용하여 슬립의 분포를 모델링하였다. 평가를 위해 고려된 단층 파라미터들은 진원의 위치, 전단파 속도 대비 파열 전파속도 비, 상승시간, 절점주파수 그리고 고주파감쇠 필터 등 이었다. 요소지진원에 적용된 파라미터들은 구조권역별 특성이 다른 지역의 값을 사용하였고 다른 파라미터들은 발생 가능한 임의의 값을 사용하였다. 생성된 지반운동 시간이력으로부터 응답스펙트럼을 작성하였으며, 파라미터의 값을 달리하여 비교하였다. 이로부터 각각의 단층파라미터에 의해 영향을 받는 주파수 구간 및 스펙트럼 가속도의 차이를 평가하였다.

본 논문에서는 비압축성 Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes 방정식을 수치 해석하여 자유표면을 포함한 선체 주위의 난류 유동을 계산하였다. 정규격자 상에서 공간의 이산화는 2차 정도의 유한차분법을, 시간의 적분에는 4단계 Runge-Kutta법을 이용하였고, 난류 닫힘 조건을 만족시키기 위해 Baldwin-Lomax 난류 모형을 사용하였다. 자유표면의 위치는 운동학적 경계조건식을 Lax-Wendroff법으로 풀어서 구하였고, 자유표면과 격자 경계면을 일치시키기 위해 매 시간마다 새로 계산된 자유표면 위치에 맞추어 격자를 새로 구성하였다. 속도와 압력에 대한 경계조건은 자유표면에서 점성을 무시하여 근사한 동역학적 조건을 적용해서 구하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 수치해법을 검증하기 위하여 실험자료가 많은 Wigley 선형과 Sries 60 $C_B=0.6$ 선형에 대해 수치계산을 수행하였고 계산된 선체 주위의 파형이 실험 결과와 잘 일치하는 것을 확인하였다.

This study compares the Residual ultimate longitudinal strength - grounding Damage index (R-D) diagrams produced by two analysis methods: the ALPS/HULL Intelligent Supersize Finite Element Method (ISFEM) and the design formula (modified Paik and Mansour) method - used to assess the safety of damaged ships. The comparison includes four types of double-hull oil tankers: Panamax, Aframax, Suezmax and VLCC. The R-D diagrams were calculated for a series of 50 grounding scenarios. The diagrams were efficiently sampled using the Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) technique and comprehensively analysed based on ship size. Finally, the two methods were compared by statistically analysing the differences between their grounding damage indices and ultimate longitudinal strength predictions. The findings provide a useful example of how to apply the ultimate longitudinal strength analysis method to grounded ships.

Fiber reinforced polymer(FRP) composite decks are new to bridge applications and hence not much literature exists on their structural mechanical behavior. As there are many differences between numerical displacements through static analysis of the primary model and experimental displacements through static load tests, system identification (SI)techniques such as Neural Networks (NN) and support vector machines (SVM) utilized in the optimization of the FE model. During the process of identification, displacements were used as input while stiffness as outputs. Through the comparison of numerical displacements after SI and experimental displacements, it can note that NN and SVM would be effective SI methods in modeling an FRP deck. Moreover, two methods such as response surface method and iteration were proposed to optimize the estimated stiffness. Finally, the results were compared through the mean square error (MSE) of the differences between numerical displacements and experimental displacements at 6 points.

The paper presents a numerical analysis of a steel-soil composite (SSC) culvert in the scope of static (dead and live) loads. The Abaqus program based on the finite element method (FEM) was used for calculations. Maximum displacements were obtained in the shell crown, and the largest stresses in the haunches. Calculation results were compared with the experimental ones and previous calculations obtained from the Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis (ARSA) program. The shapes of calculated displacements and stresses are similar to those obtained with the experiment, but the absolute values were generally higher than measured ones. The relative differences of calculated and measured values were in the range of 5-23% for displacements, and 15-42% for stresses. Developed calculation model of the SSC culvert in the Abaqus program allows obtaining reasonable values of internal forces in the culvert. Using both calculation programs, the relative differences for displacements were in the range of 15-39%, and 17-44% for stresses in favour of the Abaqus program. Three design methods (Sundquist-Pettersson, Duncan and CHBDC) were used to calculate the axial thrusts and bending moments. Obtained values were compared with test results. Generally, the design methods have conservative assumptions, especially in the live loads distribution, safety factors and consideration the interaction between soil and steel structure.

본 논문에서는 얕은기초를 가지는 단자유도 구조물의 지진시 응답특성을 시간영역 비선형 유한차분해석을 이용하여 살펴보았다. 해석결과는 중력가속도 20g에서 시행된 동일한 제원을 가지는 동적원심모형실험 결과를 통하여 검증되었다. 검증결과 실험과 해석의 통제운동지점 경계조건 차이에서 발생하는 차이는 지반의 비선형 거동특성으로 발생하는 이력감쇠에 지반의 감쇠비를 추가하여 감소시킬 수 있었다. 이로부터 얻어진 구조물과 지반에서 계측된 가속도 시간이력 및 주파수대역 응답곡선 모두 유사한 결과를 나타내어, 시간영역 비선형 유한차분해석을 통한 지반-구조물 상호작용 해석의 신뢰성을 확보할 수 있었으며, 향후 동적원심모형으로 계측이 어려운 구조물의 잔류변위, 작용토압 등을 효과적으로 판단할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
