The lattice-spring-based synthetic rock mass model (LS-SRM) technique has been extensively employed in large open-pit mining and underground projects in the last decade. Since the LS-SRM requires a complex and time-consuming calibration process, a robust approach was developed using the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) to optimize the calibration procedure. For this purpose, numerical models were designed using the Box-Behnken Design technique, and numerical simulations were performed under uniaxial and triaxial stress states. The model input parameters represented the models' micro-mechanical (lattice) properties and the macro-scale properties, including uniaxial compressive strength (UCS), elastic modulus, cohesion, and friction angle constitute the output parameters of the model. The results from RSM models indicate that the lattice UCS and lattice friction angle are the most influential parameters on the macro-scale UCS of the specimen. Moreover, lattice UCS and elastic modulus mainly control macro-scale cohesion. Lattice friction angle (flat joint fiction angle) and lattice elastic modulus affect the macro-scale friction angle. Model validation was performed using physical laboratory experiment results, ranging from weak to hard rock. The results indicated that the RSM model could be employed to calibrate LS-SRM numerical models without a trial-and-error process.

We consider partial matchings, which are finite graphs consisting of edges and vertices of degree zero or one. We consider transformations between two states of partial matchings. We introduce a method of presenting a transformation between partial matchings. We introduce the notion of the lattice presentation of a partial matching, and the lattice polytope associated with a pair of lattice presentations, and we investigate transformations with minimal area.

Nonlinear Vortex Strength Correction Method is developed for improvement of vortex lattice method which can't calculate the separated flow conditions and the viscous effect. In this method, the vortex strength on the blade surface is determined by matching the lift force from vortex lattice method with the lift force from aerodynamic coefficients table as the same circulation is added to or subtracted from all chord wise vortices. For considering the nonlinearities due to the neighboring blade sections, sophisticated Newton-Rapson algorithm is applied. The validation of this method was done by comparing the simulations with the measurements on the NREL Phase-VI horizontal axis wind turbine(HAWT) in the NASA Ames wind tunnel under uniform conditions. This method gives good agreements with experiments in most cases.

Recently it is increased by degrees to produce complex and large lattice structures such as bridge, tower, crane, and space structures. In general, in order to analyse these structures we have used finite element method(FEM). In this method, however, it is necessary to use a large amount of computer memory and to take long computation time. For overcoming this problem, the Authors have developed the transfer dynamic stiffness coefficient method(TDSCM) which consists on the concept of the substructure synthesis method and transfer influence coefficient method. In this paper, the new free vibration analysis method for large type lattice structure is formulated by the TDSCM. And the results obtained by TDSCM are compared with those obtained by FEM, transfer matrix method and experiment. And it is confirmed for TDSCM to be the numerical high accuracy and high speed structure analysis method.

We propose a Cubic-Interpolated Pseudo-Particle Lattice Boltzmann method (CIP-LBM) for the convection-diffusion equation (CDE) based on the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) scheme equation. The CIP-LBM relies on an accurate numerical lattice equilibrium particle distribution function on the advection term and the use of a splitting technique to solve the Lattice Boltzmann equation. Different schemes of lattice spaces such as D1Q3, D2Q5, and D2Q9 have been used for simulating a variety of problems described by the CDE. All simulations were carried out using the BGK model, although another LB scheme based on a collision term like two-relation time or multi-relaxation time can be easily applied. To show quantitative agreement, the results of the proposed model are compared with an analytical solution.

This paper presents a two-dimensional edge tone to predict the frequency characteristics of the discrete oscillations of a jet-edge feedback cycle by the finite difference lattice Boltzmann method (FDLBM). We use a new lattice BGK compressible fluid model that has an additional term and allow larger time increment comparing the conventional FDLBM, and also use a boundary fitted coordinates. The jet is chosen long enough in order to guarantee the parabolic velocity profile of the jet at the outlet, and the edge consists of a wedge with an angle of $\alpha=23^0$. At a stand-off distance $\omega$, the edge is inserted along the centreline of the jet, and a sinuous instability wave with real frequency f is assumed to be created in the vicinity of the nozzle and th propagate towards the downstream. We have succeeded in capturing very small pressure fluctuations result from periodically oscillation of jet around the edge. That pressure fluctuations propagate with the sound speed. Its interaction with the wedge produces an irrotational feedback field which, near the nozzle exit, is a periodic transverse flow producing the singularities at the nozzle lips. The lattice BGK model for compressible fluids is shown to be one of powerful tool for computing sound generation and propagation for a wide range of flows.

Immersed boundary-Lattice Boltzmann Method (IB-LBM) is used for the analysis of flow over the circular cylinder in the concept of fluid-structure interaction analysis (FSI). Recently, IB-LBM has shown the enormous possibility for the application of various biomedical engineering fields, such as the movement of a human body or the behavior of the blood cells and/or particle-based drug delivery system in blood vessels. In order for the numerical analysis of the interaction between fluid and solid object, immersed boundary method and lattice Boltzmann method are coupled to analyze the flow over a cylinder for low Reynolds laminar flow (Re=10, 20, 40 and 100) with Zhu-He boundary condition at the boundary. With the developed IB-LBM, the flow around the cylinder in the uniform flow is analyzed for the laminar flow and the drag and lift coefficients and recirculation length are compared to the previous results.

본 논문에서는 원통형 복합재 격자구조체의 구조안전성 평가 기법에 대해 연구를 수행하였다. 구조안전성 평가는 유한요소해석을 통해 수행하였다. 구조안전성 평가를 위한 최적의 유한요소를 확인하기 위해 원통형 복합재 격자구조체 유한요소모델은 빔, 쉘 그리고 솔리드 요소를 사용해 생성하였다. 쉘과 솔리드 모델의 유한요소 해석결과는 서로 유사하게 발생되었다. 그러나 빔 모델의 경우, 쉘과 솔리드 모델의 결과와 큰 차이가 발생하였다. 이것은 빔 요소가 원통형 복합재 격자구조체 섬유 비교차부의 기계적 물성저하를 고려하지 못하기 때문이다. 원통형 복합재 격자구조체의 구조안전성 평가를 위한 유한요소해석은 쉘 또는 솔리드 요소를 사용해야 하는 것을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 적절한 패턴의 입력 영상과 고속 중간 값 필터를 이용하여 집적 영상에서 빠르고 정확한 렌즈 배열의 격자 검출 방법을 제안한다. 렌즈 배열의 격자를 검출하기 위해서 수직, 수평 방향의 에지 영상이 필요하다. 이를 위해, 이전의 잘 알려진 격자 검출 방법은 1차원 중간 값 필터를 사용한다. 하지만 이 방법은 속도가 느리고 중간 값 필터 크기를 결정하는데 어려움이 발생한다. 이를 극복하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 binary counting방법으로 중간 값을 구함으로써 속도를 개선하고자 한다. 또, 에지를 잘 검출 할 수 있는 캘리브레이션 패턴 영상을 제안하여 정확도를 향상 시킨다. 실험을 통해 제안하는 방법이 기존의 방법보다 집적 영상에서 렌즈 배열의 격자를 검출할 때 우수하게 적용될 수 있음을 보여주었다.

This paper presents a comparative structural analysis of lattice hybrid tower with six legs with conventional tubular steel tower for an onshore wind turbine using finite element method. Usually a lattice hybrid tower will have a conventional industry standard 'L' profile section for the lattice construction with four legs. In this work, the researcher attempted to identify and analyze the strength of six legged lattice hybrid tower designed with a special profile instead of four legged L profile. And to compare the structural benefits of special star profile with the conventional tubular tower. Using Ansys, a commercial FEM software, both static and dynamic structural analyses were performed. A simplified finite element model that represents the wind turbine tower was created using Shell elements. An ultimate load condition was applied to check the stress level of the tower in the static analysis. For the dynamic analysis, the frequency extraction was performed in order to obtain the natural frequencies of the tower.
