In this paper, the impedance-tuned monopole microstrip antenna designed for PCS is analyzed using finite difference time domain(FDTD) method. The perfectly matched layer(PML) absorbing material condition proposed by Berenger is used for the truncation of finite difference time domain lattice. A Gaussian pulse is selected as an excitation signal and a resistive voltage source model is used to reduce the error caused by the reflection waves. The FDTD method is inherently a near field technique. Therefore, the near field to far field transformation is need to compute far field antenna parameters such as radiation patterns and gain. The near field to far field transformation can be done both in the time domain and the frequency domain. We use the frequency domain transformation to compute the far field radiation patterns at single frequency. All the numerical results obtained by the FDTD method are compared with simulation results using the HFSS software. Good agreements are obtained in all cases.

For fitness-for-service analyses of underground natural gas pipelines, engineering assessment methods against possible defects need to be developed. The assessment methods for high pressure pipeline of KOGAS, was developed using the full size pipe burst tests and the finite element analysis. It included the defect assessment methods for a single and multi-corrosion, corrosion in girth welding part, corrosion in seam welding part, the mechanical damage defects as dent and gouge, crack and large plastic deformation of API 5L X65 pipe. In addition, we developed method to assess pipeline integrity by internal and external load to buried pipeline. Evaluation results were compared with other methods currently being applied to the gas pipeline. The program of Windows environment is made for easily using assessment methods. It provides a consistent user interface, so non-professional technician can easily and friendly use the FFS program from company intranet. Several evaluation programs is easily installed using one installer. Each program constitutes a common input interface and the output configuration program, and evaluation result store and can be recalled at any time. The FFS program based on independent evaluation method is used to evaluate the integrity and safety of KOGAS pipeline, and greatly contribute to safe and efficient operation of pipeline. This paper presents experimental, analytical and numerical investigations to develop the FFS methods for KOGAS pipeline, used as high pressure natural gas transmission pipeline within KOREA. Also, it includes the description of the integrated program for FFS methods.

This investigation presents a finite element method to obtain the transmission properties of bulk elastic waves in piezoelectric band gap structures(phonon crystals) for varying frequencies and modes. To this end, periodic boundary conditions are imposed on a three-dimensional model while both in-plane and out-of-plane modes are included. In particular, the mode decoupling characteristics between in-plane and out-of-plane modes are identified for each electric poling direction and the results are incorporated in the finite element modeling. Through numerical simulations, the proposed modeling method was found to be a useful, effective one for analyzing the wave characteristics of various types of piezoelectric phononic band gap structures.

In the development of high-speed trains, ride comfort is an important factor that determines the quality of the train. In this study, the ride comforts of high-speed trains with rigid and flexible car bodies were evaluated. The rail irregularity is used as an exciting source of the car-body bounce motion. The complex extruded structures of the car-body are modeled as shell structures using the calculated equivalent stiffness of the flexible model. The numerical results show that the ride of the rigid-body model improves as the speed increases, which is unreasonable. In contrast, the relationship between ride comfort and speed in the case of flexible-body model is reasonable. Thus, it is confirmed that the flexibility of the car body needs to be taken into consideration while fabricating a high-speed train.

Riemann 문제는 천수방정식과 같은 쌍곡선형 방정식과 단일한 도약에 의해 불연속인 어떤 점의 좌 우에서 상수인 자료로 구성되는 초기치 문제로서 그 해법은 Godunov 방법과 같이 정확해에 의하면 정확 Riemann 해법, 근사 기법에 의하면 근사 Riemann 해법으로 불린다. 지금까지 이용되는 근사 Riemann 해법으로는 1981년에 P. L. Roe가 제안한 Roe의 선형화 기법과 1983년에 A. Harten, P. D. Lax, 그리고 B. van Leer가 제안한 HLL 기법의 수정 기법들이다. 최대 및 최소 파속만 고려하는 것으로 알려진 HLL 기법은 1988년에 B. Einfeldt의 제안에 의해 두 파속의 결정에서 Roe의 선형화 기법에 따른 고유치와 비교하는 것으로 수정되었다(HLLE 기법). 또한, 1994년에 E. F. Toro 등은 접촉파를 고려하기 위해 선형화된 지배방정식의 정확해로부터 중앙 파속을 고려하는 기법을 제안하였고, 이를 HLLC 기법으로 불렀다. 2002년에 T. Linde는 중앙 파속을 평가하기 위해 일반화된(수학적) 엔트로피 함수를 도입하였으며, van Leer는 이를 HLLL 기법으로 불렀다. 이 기법에서는 접촉파의 평가를 위해 보존변수에 대한 일반화된 엔트로피 함수로부터 중앙 파속이 유도되며, 이것과 특성 속도의 비교를 통해 최대 및 최소 파속이 결정된다. 따라서 이 기법에서는 모든 파속이 초기치로부터 결정되므로 HLLE 기법과 달리 Roe의 선형화 기법과 완전히 결별되고 HLLC 기법과 달리 정확해에 의존되지 않는 점에서 HLLL 기법은 모태인 HLL 기법의 온전한 계승으로 볼 수 있다. HLLL 기법은 여러 분야에 적용된 바 있으나, 수공학 분야에 적용된 사례는 알려진 바 없다. 이는 천수방정식에 대한 (물리적) 엔트로피 함수가 명확하지 않기 때문인 것으로 보인다. 이 연구에서는 보존변수로부터 정의되는 총 에너지를 일반화된 엔트로피 함수로 간주하여 모형을 구성하고, 정확해가 알려진 1차원 문제에 대해 적용성을 검토하였다. 정확해가 알려진 경우에 대해 모의한 결과, 1차 정도 수치해의 한계에도 불구하고, HLLL 기법의 결과는 대체로 정확해와 잘 일치하였으며 그 외의 HLL-형 기법의 그것에 비해 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 물이 빠져 바닥이 드러나는 상태에 대한 접촉 파속의 추정에서 Riemann 불변량을 이용하는 HLLC 기법에 비해 물이 빠지는 전선을 더 정확하게 포착하는 HLLL 기법의 결과는 매우 고무적이었다.

태풍 루사나 매미에 의한 피해사례를 보면 하천 횡단 구조물 본체가 파괴되는 피해 뿐 만 아니라, 구조물과 제방과의 연결부가 세굴되어 붕괴되는 사례가 많이 발생하였다. 하천설계기준(2009)에는 이러한 보와 제방의 연결부 부분을 연결호안이라 하여 관련 기준을 제시하고 있으나, 설치구간의 길이를 정할 때 하천의 규모나 하도의 특성을 고려하지 못하고 일률적으로 결정하도록 하고 있다. 이에 건설기술연구원에서는 상류 Froude 수와 보 높이를 변수로 하는 연결호안 설치 길이에 대한 실험식(2006)을 제시하였다. 하지만 보 접속부 세굴에 영향을 주는 인자는 상류의 Froude 수와 보의 높이 뿐만 아니라, 상 하류 수위차, 보의 형상, 제방의 재료적 특성 등 많은 요인들이 존재한다. 이 중 본 연구에서는 상 하류 수위차와 보 접속부 세굴 범위의 관계를 파악하고자 한다. 보 접속부 세굴에 대한 수치모의에 앞서 Gill(1972)와 Dongol(1990)이 수행하였던 교대세굴 자료를 바탕으로 Flow-3D의 세굴에의 적합성 및 적용성을 검토하였다(그림 2참고). 검토 결과 수치모의의 입력 변수를 조정함으로써 실험값과 가깝게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 이렇게 조정된 변수를 이용하여, 보 접속부 세굴에 대한 수치모의는 상 하류의 수위차에 대해 다양한 검토를 하기 위해 상류의 수위를 1.0m로 고정한 채하류부의 수위를 0.2~0.8m까지 0.1m간격으로 변화시켰으며, 유사의 대표 입경은 0.63mm로 주문진 표준사를 가정하였다. 모의 시간은 평형세굴심이 발생할 때까지 수행하였고, 난류모델로는 LES(Large Eddy Simulation)를 채택하였다. 모의 결과 상 하류 수위차가 증가할수록 보 하류부 세굴 길이($L_d$)가 증가 하였으며, 세굴의 폭($B_d$) 역시 증가하였다. 그림 3은 수치모의 결과로 세굴이 발생된 제방의 모습을 도시한 것이다.

Phenomena induced by waves, such as overtopping, sediment transport, vibration/fluctuation and destruction of structures are highly influenced by the directionality of wave propagation. These phenomena are often dominated by non-linearity, and so hydraulic model experiments are widely adopted for stability analysis rather than numerical modeling, Thus, stability ofrubblc mound breakwaters(RMB) due to wavc directionality was experimentally investigated in this study. The incident wave angle $30^{\circ}$ was found more risky on the damage rate of RMB under directional regular waves, and the incident wave angle $40^{\circ}$ was found relatively risky under directional irregular waves. These results clarified the wave directionality effect on the stability ofRMB, These facts were found correspondent to the occurrence of the peak between $20^{\circ}$-$40^{\circ}$ with the directional frequency distribution of lIlO maximum water particle velocity.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidative effects of Mori Cortex Radicis powder and to determine the optimal mixing ratio of Mori Cortex Radicis powder and water in the preparation of bread. The optimal sensory composite recipe was determined by producing bread with different levels of Mori Cortex Radicis powder and water. The analysis was performed using response surface methodology and a sensory evaluation was performed with the data. Ten experimental recipes, including two with reference points in the composition, were selected. In terms of the antioxidative effects of Mori Cortex Radicis powder, the $IC_{50}$ for total phenolic content and DPPH free radical scavenging activity were 149.56 GAE/g dry powder and 137.77 /mL respectively. Measurement results of the mechanical properties showed differences in volume (p<0.05), baking loss (p<0.05), yellowness (p<0.01), lightness (p<0.01), redness (p<0.01), hardness (p<0.01) and springiness (p<0.05). The sensory measurements showed significant values for color (p<0.05), appearance (p<0.05), flavor (p<0.01), taste (p<0.01), and overall quality (p<0.01). Overall, based on numerical and graphical methods, the optimal formulation was determined to be 21.16 g of Mori Cortex Radicis powder and 372.47 g of water.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal mixing condition of tomato powder and sugar for producing chiffon cake. The experiment was designed according to the central composite design of response surface, which yielded ten experimental points, including two replicates. Physiochemical and sensory properties were measured, and theses values applied to mechanical models. A canonical form and perturbation plot showed the influence of each ingredient on the final product mixture. The results of the physiochemical analysis of each sample showed significant differences in sweetness (P<0.01), color L (P<0.001), color a (P<0.001), color b (P<0.05), hardness (P<0.05), and cohesiveness (P<0.01). The sensory measurements were significantly different in color (P<0.05), appearance (P<0.05), flavor (P<0.05), sweetness (P<0.01), moistness (P<0.05), and overall acceptability (P<0.05). The optimal formulation, calculated using the numerical and graphical method, was determined to be 59.27 g tomato powder and 285.66 g sugar. The sensory evaluation showed significantly higher preferences in the color, flavor, appearance, texture, sweetness, tenderness, moistness and overall quality of the optimized chiffon cake compared to the controlled chiffon cake. The optimized chiffon cake also showed a high antioxidative activity compared to the controlled chiffon cake. Our results show that chiffon cake prepared with tomato powder enhances sensory characteristics and antioxidative activity.

This paper presents the results of a numerical investigation on the behavior of a geosynthetic reinforced two-tier segmental retaining wall (GR-SRW) on a yielding foundation. A hypothetical 10 m high two tier GR-SRW to be constructed on an incompetent foundation containing a layer of relative soft soil deposit was considered. A verified finite-element procedure was employed to get insights into the effect of foundation yielding on the wall behavior including the wall deformation and the reinforcement load. It is shown that the effect of foundation yielding is to increase the wall deformation as well as the reinforcement load, thus influencing both the internal as well as the external stability of the wall. Practical implications of the findings obtained from this study are highlighted in this paper.
