  • A comparison of the ARC metabolizable energy system and the NRC net energy system was made with special reference to growing steers. Two simulation models, one based on the ARC and other on the NRC system, were constructed to examine differences between the energy systems. The average daily live-weight gains predicted from both models for growing steers were compared under various conditions in which equal feeding levels and metabolizabilities were assumed. The two simulation models yielded similar results with very high energy intake with high quality feed. Difference between the two systems became larger as feeding conditions deviated from the above. The ARC system generally predicted higher daily live-weight gains than the NRC system. This appeared to be due to the higher efficiency of utilization of metabolizable energy ($k_m$ and $k_f$) and basal metabolism (F), and lower energy value of growth (EVG) in the ARC system.

  • Most material of engineering interest undergoes solidification process from liquid to solid state. Identifying the underlying mechanism during solidification process is essential to determine the microstructure of material which governs the physical properties of final product. In this paper, we expand our previous two-dimensional numerical technique to three-dimensional simulation for computing dendritic solidification process with fluid convection. We used Level Contour Reconstruction Method to track the moving liquid-solid interface and Sharp Interface Technique to correctly implement phase changing boundary condition. Three-dimensional results showed clear difference compared to two-dimensional simulation on tip growth rate and velocity.

  • The ageing cause in many porcelain suspension insulators which occur on transmission and distribution line with dead-end stings is mechanical stress in interface between porcelain and cement materials. It is known that the principal mechanical stress which give electrical failure is the results of the displacement is due to cement growth. We studied the effect of cement displacement resulting environmental ageing parameters on porcelain insulator mechanical properties for transmission line by simulation (ANSYS/NASTRAN program) and test methods. These simulation analysis and experimental results show that cement volume growth affects severely to be mechanical failure ageing.

  • As computational resolution of modern cosmological simulations reach ever so close to resolve individual star-forming clumps in a galaxy, a need for "resolution-appropriate" physics for a galaxy-scale simulation has never been greater. To this end, we introduce a self-consistent numerical framework that includes explicit treatments of feedback from star-forming molecular clouds and massive black holes. We perform a state-of-the-art cosmological simulation of a quasar-host galaxy at z~7.5, and demonstrate that previously undiscussed types of interplay between galactic components may hold important clues about the growth and impact of quasar-host galaxies.

  • In this Part 2, the grain growth processes of $Al_2O_3$ ceramics is numerically simulated using Monte Carlo method (MCM) and finite element method (FEM) and the pore sizes are analyzed. As the green ceramics whose thermal conductivities in high temperatures are generally low are sintered by the plasma heat and are rapidly cooled, the grain growth of the sintered body in the center is different from that in the outer. Also, even in the same sintering temperature, the pore size differs according to the pressing pressure. In order to prove the difference, the temperature distribution of the sintered body was analyzed using the finite element method and then the grain growth process associated with pressing pressures and relative densities was simulated using Monte Carlo method.

  • The development of manufacturing process of silicon (Si) ingots is one of the important issues to the growth of the photovoltaic industry. Polycrystalline Si wafers shares more than 60% of the photovoltaic market due to its cost advantage compared to mono crystalline silicon wafers. Several solidification processes have been developed by industry including casting, heat exchange method (HEM) and electromagnetic casting. In this paper, the advanced directional solidification (ADS) method is used to growth of large sized polycrystalline Si ingot. This method has the advantages of the small heat loss, short cycle time and efficient directional solidification. The numerical simulation of the process is applied using a fluid dynamics model to simulate the temperature distribution. The results of simulations are confirmed efficient directional solidification to the growth of large sized polycrystalline Si ingot above 240 kg.

  • In this study, the numerical simulation of drying processes for porous materials is performed by employing the hierarchical multi-scale modeling and the nano-scale material properties obtained from the molecular dynamics simulation. The multi-scale simulation system is set up using pre- and post-processors and the drying process of electric porous ceramic insulator is simulated. The temperature, moisture, residual stress, and displacement distributions are compared with those based on homogenized properties.

  • This paper discusses the applicability of two simulation models for a ten year planning period in order to predict changing forest conditions. Two simulation models therefore were developed and applied to 3,844 ha of a national forest in Kangwondo province, which is managed by Joongbu Forest District Headquaters. Growth functions of three species were derived and used to predict the residual timber volume over time. Two alternative cutting schedules caused 10-14% difference in the residual timber volume in the end of ten year planning period. This suggests the important of correct decision-makings of forest managers in forest management planning.

  • The present study proposes efficient procedural modeling methods for enabling the growth and creation of various trees with minimal user control. Growth volume algorithms are utilized in order to easily and effectively calculate many parameters that determine tree growth, including branch propagation. Procedural methods are designed so that users' interactive control structures can be applied to these algorithms to create unique tree models efficiently. First, through a two-line-based interactive growth volume control method, the growth information that determines the overall shape of the tree is intuitively adjusted. Thereafter, independent branch control methods designed to control individual branches are added to the growth deformation in order to enable the growth of unique trees. Whether the growth processes of desired trees can be easily and intuitively controlled by the proposed method is verified through experiments. Methods that can apply the proposed methods are also verified.
