드로네이 요소생성기법은 모델링 영역의 모양에 구애받지 않으면서 요소의 크기제어, 재편성, 국지요소생성 등에 있어서 탁월한 기능을 보여주고 있다. 그러나 생성되는 요소가 선형삼각형요소임으로해서 비압축성 또는 대변위거동의 근사나 복잡한 형상의 영역의 기하학적 근사에 한계를 갖고 있다. 이를 보완하기 위해 기제시된 드로네이 요소생성 알고리즘을 바탕으로한 6절점 삼각요소 생성알고리즘을 제시하여 본 기법의 완성도를 높이고 이를 성형문제에 적용해 보였다.

For fast capacitance computation, a simple mesh refinement technique on MLFMA(Multi-Level Fast Multipole Algorithm) is proposed The triangular meshes are refined mainly in the area which has heavy charge density. The technique is applied to the capacitance extraction of three dimensional conductors. The results show good convergence with comparable accuracy. An adaptive technique concerned with MLFMA is useful to reduce computation time and the number of elements without additional computational efforts in large three dimensional problems.

In this work, a general method for the mathematical description of three-dimensional trimmed surface is proposed by introducing the base parametric surface and boundary curves. Since mesh density distribution for the analysis may vary by cases, a grid-based mesh generation algorithm using quadtree is proposed in the present work. For the assurance of connectivity of generated meshes among surfaces, a method for the pre-cleaning of boundary curves has been developed to be used in the automatic generation of the finite elements. In addition, mesh-smoothing algorithm is suggested which can be used in the general trimmed surface. In this algorithm nodes are moved on the original surface by the normal projection in each iterative smoothing procedure.

An algorithm for the automatic generation of quadrilateral shell elements on three-dimensional sculptured surfaces has been developed, which is one of the key issues in the finite element analysis of structures with complex shapes such as automobile structures. Mesh generation on sculptured surfaces is performed in three steps. First a sculptured surface is transformed to a projection plane, on which the loops are subdivided into subloops by using the best split lines, and with the use of 6-node/8-node loop operators and a layer operator, quadrilateral finite elements are constructed on this plane. Finally, the constructed mesh is transformed back to the original sculptured surfaces. The proposed mesh generation scheme is suited for the generation of non-uniform meshes so that it can be effectively used when the desired mesh density is available. Sample meshes are presented to demonstrate the versatility of the algorithm.

This paper presents a 3D shape optimization algorithm for electromagnetic devices using the design sensitivity analysis with finite element method. The structural deformation analysis based on the deformation theory of the elastic body under stress is used for mesh renewing. The design sensitivity and adjoint variable formulae are derived for the 3D finite element method with edge element. The results of sensitivity analysis are used as the input data of the structural analysis to calculate the relocation of the nodal points. This method makes it possible that the new mesh of analysis region can be obtained from the initial mesh without regeneration. The proposed algorithm is applied to the shape optimization of 3D electromagnet pole to net a uniform flux density at the target region.

The finite element method is one of the methods widely applied for predicting vibration in mechanical structures. In this paper, the effect of the mesh size of the finite element model on the accuracy of the numerical solutions of the structural vibration problems is investigated with particular focus on obtaining the optimal mesh size with respect to the solution accuracy and computational cost. The vibration response parameters of the natural frequency, modal density, and driving point mobility are discussed. For accurate driving point mobility calculation, the decay method is employed to experimentally determine the internal damping. A uniform plate simply supported at four corners is examined in detail, in which the response parameters are calculated by constructing finite element models with different mesh sizes. The accuracy of the finite element solutions of these parameters is evaluated by comparing with the analytical results as well as estimations based on the statistical energy analysis, or if not available, by testing the numerical convergence. As the mesh size becomes smaller than one quarter of the wavelength of the highest frequency of interest, the solution accuracy improvement is found to be negligible, while the computational cost rapidly increases. For mechanical structures, the finite element analysis with the mesh size of the order of quarter wavelength, combined with the use of the decay method for obtaining internal damping, is found to provide satisfactory predictions for vibration responses.

MeshFree methods have become popular owing to the ease with which high stress gradients can be identified and node density distribution can be reformulated to accomplish faster convergence. This paper presents a strategy for nodal density refinement with strain energy as basis in Element-Free Galerkin MeshFree technique. Two popular flat plate problems are considered for the demonstration of the proposed strategies. Issue of integration errors introduced during nodal density refinement have been addressed by suggesting integration cell refinement. High stress effects around two symmetrical semi-circular notches under in-plane axial load have been addressed in the first problem. The second considers crack propagation under mode I and mode II fracture loading by the way of introducing high stress intensity through line crack. The computational efficacy of the adaptive refinement strategies proposed has been highlighted.

To alleviate the vibration problem or to satisfy the required criteria for manifesting the guaranteed performance of precise equipment, various vibration isolation materials or apparatus, such as viscoelastic material, air and coil spring, have been developed and applied. Among them, a wire mesh material is regarded as one of the good candidate for reducing the vibration in terms of moderate material price, easy shape machining and long life cycle without the property deterioration induced by the aging or environmental effects. In this paper, prior to wire mesh isolator design, the static and dynamic elastic modulus of wire mesh materials are extracted from the experiment by the simple shaped cylindrical specimens and their characteristics for applying to vibration isolator design are examined. The simple shaped specimens were made as considering the design parameters of a wire mesh mount; i.e. the density, wire diameter and wire mesh slope, and the sensitivity analysis were also performed from a view point of the extracted elastic modulus.

본 논문에서는 입력 볼륨 데이터와 출력 메쉬 데이터에서 모두 계층성을 지원하는 새로운 등밀도 표면의 재구성 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 먼저 입력 볼륨 데이터로부터 3차원 팽창 필터를 사용하여 볼륨 피라미드라 불리는 볼륨의 계층구조를 만든다. 볼륨 피라미드가 만들어진 후 해상도가 최저인 피라미드의 최상단 볼륨에서부터 셀경계표현 방법을 이용하여 조악한 초기 메쉬를 생성한다. 이러한 메쉬를 반복적으로 변형하여 O(3)-인접성 조건하에서 추출한 등밀도점을 잘 근사하도록 하는데, 이를 위해 SWIS (표면축소기반의 등밀도면 재구성법[6]) 알고리즘에서 사용되었던 표면 축소 단계와 평활화 단계를 사용한다. 또한 최종등밀도면의 정밀한 표면을 만들 수 있도록 메쉬를 반복적으로 분할(subdivision)한다. 제안된 방법은 생성되는 표면이 표면의 압축이나 점진적인 전송 등과 같은 다중 해상도 알고리즘에 활용될 수 있다는 장점이 있다.
