  • To analyze laminated composite and sandwich beams under temperature loads, a $C^0$-type Reddy's beam theory considering transverse normal strain is proposed in this paper. Although transverse normal strain is taken into account, the number of unknowns is not increased. Moreover, the first derivatives of transverse displacement have been taken out from the in-plane displacement fields, so that the $C^0$ interpolation functions are only required for the finite element implementation. Based on the proposed model, a three-node beam element is presented for analysis of thermal responses. Numerical results show that the proposed model can accurately and efficiently analyze the thermoelastic problems of laminated composites.

  • The additive manufacturing technology, also called 3D printing, is growing fast. There are several methods for 3D printing. Fused deposition modeling (FDM) type 3D printing is the most popular method because it is simple and inexpensive. Moreover, it can be used for printing various thermoplastic materials. However, it contains the cooling of layered road and causes thermal shrinkage. Thermal shrinkage should be controlled to obtain high-quality products. In this study, temperature distribution and cooling behavior of a layered road with cooling are studied through computer simulation. The thermal shrinkage of the layered road was simulated using the calculated temperature distribution with time. Shape variation of the layered road was predicted as cooling proceeded. Stress between the bed and the layered road was also predicted.This stress was considered as the detaching stress of the layered road from the bed. The simulations were performed for various thermal conductivities and temperatures of the layered road, bed temperature, and chamber temperature of a 3D printer. The simulation results provide detailed information about the layered road for FDM type 3D printing under operational conditions.

  • The paper deals with the numerical analysis and design optimization of polysilicon micro thermal flexure actuator. The deflection of a thermal actuator is implicitly related to the actuation time so that such deflection is to be maximized under the consideration of structural performances such as maximum stress and natural frequencies. At first, the structural formulation of a thermal actuator is reviewed, and its CAE based simulation is performed to verify the numerical model. A parametric study is then conducted to identify the mainly effective design variables. Finally, the design of a micro thermal actuator is explored in the context of deterministic optimization and reliability based design optimization in the present study.

  • In this paper, structural behavior under fire conditions is comprehensively examined, and a novel software interface for testing interfaces efficiently is developed and validated. In order to accurately assess the response of structures to fire scenarios, advanced simulation techniques and modeling approaches are incorporated into the study. This interface enables accurate heat transfer analysis and thermo-mechanical simulations by integrating software tools such as CSI ETABS, CSI SAP2000, and OpenSees. Heat transfer models can be automatically generated, simulation outputs processed, and structural responses interpreted under a variety of fire scenarios using the proposed technique. As a result of rigorous testing and validation against established methods, including Cardington tests on scales and hybrid simulation approaches, the software interface has been proven to be effective and accurate. The analysis process is streamlined by this interface, providing engineers and researchers with a robust tool for assessing structural performance under fire conditions.

  • A probabilistic integrity analysis method is presented for a reactor vessel under pressurized thermal shock(PTS) based on Monte Carlo simulation. This method can be applied to the structural integrity assessment of a reactor vessel subjected to pressurized thermal shock where the coolant temperature transient cannot be expressed explicitly as a time function. An axially or circumferentially oriented infinite length surface crack is assumed to be in the beltline weld region of the rector vessel's inside surface. The random variables are the initial crack depth, neutron fluence on the vessel's inside surface, the copper and nickel content of the vessel materials, R $T_{NDT}$ , $K_{IC}$ , and K/aub la/. The reliability of a sample reactor vessel under PTS is assessed quantitatively and the influence of the amount of neutron fluence is also examined by applying the present method.sent method.

  • Thermal striping is a complex thermal-hydraulic phenomenon caused by fluid temperature fluctuations that can also cause high-cycle thermal fatigue to the structural wall of sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFRs). Numerical simulations using large-eddy simulation (LES) were performed to predict and evaluate the characteristics of the temperature fluctuations related to thermal striping in the upper internal structure (UIS) of the prototype generation-IV sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR). Specific monitoring points were established for the fluid region near the control rod driving mechanism (CRDM) guide tubes, CRDM guide tube walls, and UIS support plates, and the normalized mean and fluctuating temperatures were investigated at these points. It was found that the location of the maximum amplitude of the temperature fluctuations in the UIS was the lowest end of the inner wall of the CRDM guide tube, and the maximum value of the normalized fluctuating temperatures was 17.2%. The frequency of the maximum temperature fluctuation on the CRDM guide tube walls, which is an important factor in thermal striping, was also analyzed using the fast Fourier transform analysis. These results can be used for the structural integrity evaluation of the UIS in SFR.

  • The welding methods have been applied to the most structural products used in the automobile, ship construction, and construction. The structure steel must have sufficient strength of structure; However, the mechanical properties of the welded part changes when it is welded. Therefore, the stability or life of the structure may be affected by the changed mechanical properties. The mechanical properties of the welded part must be examined in order to ensure the safety of structure. In this research, the SS400 steel and the STS304 steel were used to estimate the mechanical properties of the HAZ by weld thermal cycle simulation. In this study, the materials were used to examine the weld thermal cycle simulation characteristic, under two conditions: the drawing with diameter of $\Phi$10 and the residual stress removal treatment. To examine the mechanical properties by the weld thermal cycle simulation, the tensile test was carried out in room temperature. The crosshead speed was lmm/min.

  • A visualization study of shock formation of the supersonic jet nozzle using a Shadowgraph Method (SM) was carried out to investigate the effect of the longitudinal variation of coaxial pipe end tip position inside the supersonic nozzle. The experiment was performed for the Mach number range from 1.1 to 1.2 at nozzle exit. The well known shock cell structure was shown with the pipe end located deep inside the nozzle for the studied Mach number. With the pipe end approaches nozzle exit, it was found that the shock cell structure disappeared and turned into complex formation. In order to understand the mechanism of the shock structural change, computational simulation was carried out using the Navier-Stokes solver, FLUENT. Topological sketch was added with an aid of the visualization and the numerical simulation.

  • 연소 중 고온, 고압, 고속의 연소가스가 작용하는 노즐조립체(Nozzle Assembly)는 다양한 부품(노즐목/내열재/구조체)이 접촉(Contact)/접착(Bonding)의 형태로 조립되며, 유동(경계층 유동장)-열(기계/화학적 삭마, 숯 등 열반응, 열전달)-구조(마찰, 접촉, 접착, 동적거동 및 열응력)적 복합하중이 내부에 작용하며 복잡한 거동을 보이기 때문에 정확한 구조적 안전성을 계산하는데 한계가 있다. 본 연구는 연소시험 후 노즐목 깨짐 현상이 발생한 노즐조립체에 대해 연소시간 중 열-구조적 거동 분석을 해석적으로 수행하였다. 연소시간 중 시간별/위치별로 유동해석(Fluid Analysis)에서 계산된 내부압력과, 열반응/열해석(Thermal Surface Reaction&Ablation Analysis)에서 계산된 노즐 표면의 삭마량 및 대류열전달계수가 구조해석의 경계/하중조건으로 부여된 후 열변형 해석이 수행되는 연동해석(Co-simulation)기법을 사용하였다. 특히 구조해석 시 각 부품별 경계면의 접착/접촉/마찰조건을 달리하며 연소시험 시 계측된 변형률값과 비교하여 가장 유사한 연소 중 거동분석 조건을 도출하였다.
