In this study, laboratory study of the behavior of wastewater discharged from the Boston ocean outfall was compared with the predictions of mathematical models. The dta sets cover broad ranges of discharge conditions and oceanic conditions, and are associated with a typical type of outfall discharges with multiport diffusers. The laboratory data sets were obtained in density stratified towing tanks. These data sets were used to evaluate four commonly used models: UM, UDKHDEN, RSB and CORMI$\times$2 for minimum dilution, the height to the top of the wastefield, and wastefield thickness. For minimum diluation and height to the top of the wastefield, UM and RSB predictions agree well with laboratory data. UDKHDEN overestimated the minimum dilution and height to the top of the wastefield while CORMI$\times$2 underestimated these values. All of the model predictions for the wastefield thickness were widely scattered. about the measured values. The hydraulic model study reproduced the major features observed in the laboratory. It also afforded considerable insight into the mechanics of mixing of multiport risers which could not have been obtained either from the laboratory test or the mathematical models.

This study was performed to evaluate the static strength of long-span PSC deck slabs. In the previous study, the minimum thickness of PSC deck slabs in the composite two-girder bridge was proposed. To examine the structural behavior and safety of the PSC deck slabs designed in accordance with the proposed minimum thickness, 1/3 scaled PSC deck slabs in the composite two-girder bridge were tested under the static loading. The test results were compared with the predicted values proposed by the code and Matsui. Test results showed ultimate static strength of the PSC deck slabs designed in accordance with the proposed minimum thickness have enough margin of safety. The static failure mode of each test specimen was punching shear mode.

The characteristics of multi-leaf feil bearing are investigated. The Foil bearing is preloaded and has several leaf foils modeled by curved beams. An analysis of the air foil bearing was performed, considering effects of foil deflection and compressible lubrication equation simultaneously. A parametric study shows that the number of foils significantly affect the static characteristics of air foil bearings and describes what the minimum film thickness means. The results include pressure profile, load capacity, dimensionless torque and minimum film thickness in the foil bearing.

Lift-off means that the rotating journal surface separates from the leaf surface in an air-lubricated multi-leaf foil journal bearing. Lift-off builds up minimum film thickness which will provide load capacity between leaves and journal. In this paper an analysis of air-lubricated multi-leaf foil journal bearing was performed with effects of multi-leaf foil deflection and compressible lubrication equation simultaneously. Minimum film thickness built up versus journal speed predicts the lift off characteristics and these results will be useful in designing and selecting the proper speed of the air-lubricated multi-leaf foil journal bearing.

This paper investigates the structural analysis and design of mechanical heart valve through the numerical analysis methodology. In a numerical analysis methodology application to the thickness minimization structural design of mechanical heart valve, fluid analysis is performed for the blood flow through a bileaflet mechanical heart valve. Simultaneously the kinetodynamic analysis is carried out to obtain the appropriate structural condition for the structural analysis. Thereafter the structural static analysis is also carried out to confirm the thickness minimization structural condition(minimum thickness shape of leaflet).

본 연구에서는 대기 습도변화에 의한 콘크리트 보수체(기층 콘크리트/보수 모르터)의 파괴현상을 조사하기 위해서 보수체내의 비정상적인 습도분포 및 습도응력을 계산하였다. 이러한 계산은 시멘트 모르터로 보수된 접촉면이 없는 보수체에서 보수층 두께(Do=05-2.5cm)와 보수 작업전 기층 콘크리트 표면의 습윤처리 시간(tc=1-5days) 및 대기습도(Ho=50~80%)를 주요변수로 하여 수행되었다. 계산 및 조사 결과에 의하면 접합면의 응력이 압축상태를 유지하기 위해서는 각 대기 습도마다 일정값 이상의 보수층 두께와 습윤처리 시간이 필요함을 알 수 있다.

With the recent increase in gas energy use, risk management for explosion accidents has been emphasized. Protective walls can be used to reduce damage from explosions. The KOSHA GUIDE D-65-2018 suggests the minimum thickness and height of protective walls, minimum reinforcement diameter, and maximum spacing of reinforcements for the structural safety of the protective walls. However, no related evidence has been presented. In this study, the blast load carrying capacity of the protective wall was analyzed by the pressure-impulse diagrams while changing the yield strength of the reinforcement, concrete compressive strength, reinforcement ratio, protective wall height, and thickness, to check the adequacy of the KOSHA GUIDE. Results show that failure may occur even with design based on the criteria presented by KOSHA GUIDE. In order to achieve structural safety of protective walls, additional criteria for minimum reinforcement yield strength and maximum height of protective wall are suggested for inclusion in KOSHA GUIDE. Moreover, the existing value for minimum reinforcement ratio and the thickness of the protective wall should be increased.

본 논문은 엔진 베어링에서 크랭크샤프트의 경사도를 고려했을 때와 고려하지 않았을 때 유막 동적거동을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 해석하였다. 본 해석은 탄성유체윤활 이론을 바탕으로 하여 최소유막의 동적특성을 수치적으로 해석하였다. 유막설계에 매우 중요한 인자인 크랭크샤프트 경사도를 고려하기 위하여 크랭크샤프트와 엔진베어링을 탄성체로 모델링 하였다. 유막거동해석을 위한 경계조건으로는 엔진 베어링에서 발생하는 비선형 구속력과 굽힘 모멘트를 고려하였고 이에 따른 크랭크샤프트의 경사도 영향을 고려함으로써 좀 더 실제 현상과 유사한 모델링을 수행하였다. 해석결과 엔진 베어링의 성능에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 최소유막두께가 크랭크샤프트의 경사도를 고려하지 않았을 때보다 고려하였을 때 16%에서 24%정도 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 해석결과에서와 같이 크랭크샤프트 경사도 증가는 최소유막두께의 감소를 유발하고 이에 따른 베어링 파손을 예측할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 논문의 해석결과가 자동차 엔진 베어링 설계 시 매우 유용한 자료로 사용될 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the optimal sorting factors in establishing an efficient sorting technology for brown rice. Methods: The brown rice varieties used in this study were Il Pum, Chu Cheong, Dong Jin, Un Gwang, Nam Pyeong, and Dae An. These were classified into whole grain, unriped grain, and green dead rice. The shape factors were analyzed based on length, width and thickness of the grains. Results: The results revealed that the maximum length among whole grain, unriped grain, and green dead rice was observed in Dae An variety while Chu Cheong variety showed the minimum. Further more, Il Pum brown rice showed the maximum width while Dong Jin variety showed the minimum. In the case of thickness, the maximum was observed in Un Gwang variety and that of the minimum among Nam Pyeong variety for both whole grain and unriped grain. Conclusions: The length and width can be used as determinants in sorting factors of whole grain and green dead rice, and the thickness can be considered as optimum sorting factor of whole grain and unriped grain.

In this study, the effects of Elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication pressure on the critical shoulder height of raceway in an angular contact ball bearing were investigated. Both 3D contact analyses using an influence function and the EHL analysis were conducted for the contact geometry between the ball and raceways. The pressure distributions by 3D contact analysis and EHL analysis for an example bearing were compared. The effect of ellipse truncation on the minimum film thickness also investigated from EHL analysis. The critical shoulder height in the dry contact and the EHL state were compared for various applied loads. It is shown that when the ellipse truncation occurs, the pressure spike for the EHL conjunction is higher than that for the dry contact, and its location moves more inward of the contact center. The steep pressure gradients would increase the flow rate, so in order to maintain flow continuity a significant reduction in film thickness and an abrupt rise in pressure occurs in the edge of shoulder. Significant reduction of the minimum film thickness occurs near the edge of shoulder. The critical shoulder heights in the EHL state are calculated as higher values compared with in the dry contact. This results shows that the determination of critical shoulder height by the EHL analysis is more proper.
