In this paper, the author proposes a new method for acoustic radiation optimum design to minimize noise from a vibrating panel-like structure using a collaborative population-based search method called the particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSOA). The PSOA is a parallel evolutionary computation technique initially developed by Kennedy and Eberhart. The acoustic radiation optimization method based on the PSOA consists of two processes. In the first process, the acoustic radiation analysis by an integrated p-version FEM/BEM, which was developed by using MATLAB, is performed to evaluate the exterior acoustic radiation field of the panel. The second process is to search the optimum design variables: 1) Shape of Bezier curves and 2) Shape and position of ribs, to minimize noise from the panel using the PSOA. The optimization method based on the PSOA is compared to that based on the steady state genetic algorithm(SSGA) in order to verify the effectiveness and validity of the optimal solution by PSOA. Finally, it is shown that the optimal designs of the panel obtained by using the PSOA can achieve effective reductions in radiated sound power.

본 논문에서는 입자 기반 유체 시뮬레이션에서 과하게 보존되는 액체 시트를 제거함으로써 유체 표면의 디테일을 개선시키는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 지금까지 울퉁불퉁하고 구멍이 생기는 유체 표면의 고질적인 문제를 해결하기 위한 다양한 비등방성 접근법들은 제안되었지만, 액체 시트의 보존과 분해를 안정적으로 표현할 수 있는 방법은 제시되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 비등방성 커널과 밀도를 기반으로 하여 물 입자를 동적으로 추가/삭제함으로 입자 기반 유체시뮬레이션에서 액체 시트의 보존과 분해라는 두 가지 특징을 동시에 표현할 수 있는 새로운 프레임워크를 제안한다. 이 방법은 입자 기반 유체 시뮬레이션 접근법에서 과하게 보존되는 액체 시트를 제거함으로써 분열되는 유체 시트의 특징을 잘 표현했으며, 결과적으로 노이즈를 없애 액체 시트의 품질을 개선시켰다.

The finite element method (FEM), discrete element method (DEM), and Discontinuous deformation analysis (DDA) are among the standard numerical techniques applied in computational geo-mechanics. However, in some cases there no possibility for modelling by traditional finite analytical techniques or other mesh-based techniques. The solution presented in the current study as a completely Lagrangian and mesh-free technique is smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). This method was basically applied for simulation of fluid flow by dividing the fluid into several particles. However, several researchers attempted to simulate soil-water interaction, landslides, and failure of soil by SPH method. In fact, this method is able to deal with behavior and interaction of different states of materials (liquid and solid) and multiphase soil models and their large deformations. Soil indicates different behaviors when interacting with water, structure, instrumentations, or different layers. Thus, study into these interactions using the mesh based grids has been facilitated by mesh-less SPH technique in this work. It has been revealed that the fast development, computational sophistication, and emerge of mesh-less particle modeling techniques offer solutions for problems which are not modeled by the traditional mesh-based techniques. Also it has been found that the smoothed particle hydrodynamic provides advanced techniques for simulation of soil materials as compared to the current traditional numerical methods. Besides, findings indicate that the advantages of applying this method are its high power, simplicity of concept, relative simplicity in combination of modern physics, and particularly its potential in study of large deformations and failures.

This study's primary aim is to check the existence of a representative volume element for granular materials and determine the link between the properties (responses) of macro structures and the size of the discrete particle assembly used to represent a constitutive relation in a two-scale model. In our two-scale method the boundary value problem on the macro level was solved using finite element method, based on the Cosserat continuum; the macro stresses and modulus were obtained using a solution of discrete particle assemblies at certain element integration points. Meanwhile, discrete particle assemblies were solved using discrete element method under boundary conditions provided by the macro deformation. Our investigations focused largely on the size effects of the discrete particle assembly and the radius of the particle on macro properties, such as deformation stiffness, bearing capacity and the residual strength of the granular structure. According to the numerical results, we suggest fitting formulas linking the values of different macro properties (responses) and size of discrete particle assemblies. In addition, this study also concerns the configuration and displacement fluctuation of discrete particle assemblies on the micro level, accompanied with the evolution of bearing capacity and deformation on the macro level.

As the indoor activity increases in recent years, the indoor air quality becomes more important. One of the major contaminants in office space is the copy machines and the laser based printers. These devices usually emit nano-particles and chemical species that may give some health effect. The amount of particles generated by the printers and copy machines depend on printer models, printing speed, toners, papers, humidity and so on. To evaluate the emission rate of nano-particles from Laser Printers, the mass concentration measurement method has been used (BAM, 2004). However, the mass concentration measurement method for nano-particles is tedious and time consuming. Therefore, for the development of a new nano-particle counting method, the nano-particle emission characteristics and size distributions are evaluated.

There are some modified methods such as K-means Clustering Particle Swarm Optimization and Niching Particle Swarm Optimization based on PSO which aim to locate all optima in multimodal functions. K-means Clustering Particle Optimization could locate all optima of functions with finite number of optima. Niching Particle Swarm Optimization is able to locate all of optima but high computing time. Because of those disadvantages, we proposed a new method that could locate all of optima with reasonal time. We applied our method and others as well to analytic functions. By comparing the outcomes, it is shown that our method is significantly more effective than the two others.

A stereoscopic particle tracking velocimetry (SPTV) technique based on the 2-frame hybrid particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) method was developed. The expansion of 2D PTV to SPTV is facilitated by the fact that the PTV method tracks individual particle centroids. To evaluate the performance and measurement accuracy of the present SPTV technique, it was applied to flow images of rigid body translation and synthetic standard images of jet shear flow and impinging jet flow. The data processing routine and measurement uncertainty of the SPTV technique are compared with those of conventional stereoscopic particle image velecimet.y (SPBV). In addition, the centroid translation effect of 2D particle image velocimetry (PIV) is defined and its effect on SPIV measurements is discussed. Compared to the SPIV method, the SPTV technique has inherited merits of concise and precise velocity evaluation procedures and provides better spatial resolution and measurement accuracy.

As semiconductor process was highly integrated, particle contamination became a major issue. Because particle contamination is related with process yields directly, particles with a diameter larger than half pitch of gate should be controlled. PBMS (Particle beam mass spectrometry) is one of powerful nano particle measurement device. It can measure 5~500 nm particles at ~ 100 mtorr condition in real time by in-situ method. However its usage is restricted to research filed only, due to its big device volume and high price. Therefore aperture changeable aerodynamic lenses (ACALs) which can control particle focusing characteristics by changing its aperture diameter was proposed in this study. Unlike conventional aerodynamic lenses which changes particle focusing efficiency when operating condition is changed, ACALs can maintain particle focusing efficiency. Therefore, it can be used for a multi-monitoring system that connects one PBMS and several process chambers, which greatly improves the commercialization possibility of the PBMS. ACALs was designed based on Stokes number and evaluated by numerical method. Numerical analysis results showed aperture diameter changeable aerodynamic lenses can focus 5 to 100 nm standard particles at 0.1 to 10 torr upstream pressure.

본 연구에서는 굳지 않은 콘크리트 및 유동 콘크리트의 흐름 거동에 관한 해석 시뮬레이션 모델의 개발에 관한 것으로, 입자법의 일종인 MPS법 (moving particle semi-implicit method)을 적용하였다. 콘크리트의 유동 현상을 점소성의 흐름 문제로 고려하였으며, 콘크리트 입자의 운동에 관한 지배방정식은 라그랑지 정식화의 Navier-Stokes 방정식과 질량보존의 법칙에 기초하도록 하였다. 굳지 않은 콘크리트의 점소성 흐름 구성관계의 정식화를 위하여 콘크리트는 부동 상태인 경우 고점성체의 유체로, 유동상태인 경우 항복응력 이후 점소성체의 유체로 모델링하였다. 개발된 모델을 이용하여 L-형 박스의 콘크리트 유동 시험에 대해 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 그 결과 예측된 흐름량은 실험의 흐름량과 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다. 개발된 입자법의 해석 모델은 점소성 유체의 운동현상에 기초하여 정식화 되어 콘크리트 입자의 유동 및 운동 현상을 잘 묘사해 주는 것으로 평가된다.

본 논문은 Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)을 이용하여 2차원 IIR 디지털필터의 설계방법을 제안하였다. 먼저 2차원 디지털필터의 설계문제를 PSO에 적용하기 위하여 최소화 문제로써 형식화 과정이 논의된다. 제안된 PSO 알고리즘을 이용한 설계방법은 기존의 PSO 알고리즘에 IIR 필터설계에서 요구되는 안정성을 보증하는 과정이 검토되어 개선된다. 본 논문에서 제안된 방법의 타당성을 설계예시를 통해 고찰한 결과, 설계된 디지털필터는 동일한 설계사양으로 기존의 설계방법으로 설계된 디지털필터보다 근사오차 면에서 우수한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 제안한 설계방법에 의한 2차원 IIR 디지털필터는 설계과정에서 필터의 안정성을 보증할 수 있었다.
