Pressure waves are generated and propagate in a tunnel when train enters tunnel high speed. A compression wave due to the entry of train head propagates along the tunnel and is reflected at tunnel exit as an expansion wave. An expansion wave due to the entry of the train tail propagates along the tunnel and is reflected at tunnel exit as a compression wave. These pressure waves are repeatedly propagated and reflected at the tunnel entrance and exit. Severe pressure changes causes ear-discomfort for passengers in the cabin and micro pressure waves around the tunnel exit. It is necessary to analyze the transient pressure phenomena in tunnels qualitatively and quantitatively, because pressure change rate is considered as one of the major design parameters for optimal tunnel cross sectional area and repeated fatigue force on car body. In this study, we developed a characteristics method based on a fixed mesh system and boundary conditions for crossing trains and analyzed this system using an X-t diagram. The results of the simulation show that offsetting of pressure waves occurs for special entry conditions of a crossing train.

When a ship propeller having wing type sections rotates at high speed underwater, local pressure on the blade decreases and various types of the cavitation inevitably occur where the local pressure falls below the vapor pressure. Fundamentally characteristics of the cavitation are determined by the shapes of the blade section and their operating conditions. Underwater noise radiated from a ship propeller is directly connected to the occurrence of the cavitation. In order to design low noise propeller, it is preferentially demanded to figure out key features: how the cavity is generated, developed and collapsed and how the effect of viscosity works in the process. In this study, we first perform inviscid analysis of the partial cavity generated on two dimensional hydrofoil. Secondly, viscous analysis using FLUENT with different turbulence and cavitation models are presented. Results from both approaches are also compared and estimated.

Super-REsolution Near-field Structure (Super-RENS) 재생 현상을 모델링하고 재생 신호를 계산하여 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 약 2mW 내외의 높은 광 파워로 집광된 Spot 은 디스크 내의 상변화 물질인 GST 를 용융시키므로 집광 Spot 내에는 용융 영역과 비 용융 영역이 공존하게 되고 연속적 또는 불연속적인 경계를 이루게 된다. 이러한 열 효과로부터 기인하는 집광 Spot 내에서의 물질의 광학적 특성 변화와 변화 정도의 차이를 가정하였고 변화된 광학적 특성은 집광된 Spot 의 유효 크기를 줄어들게 함으로써 회절한계 이하의 정보를 재생 가능하게 한다. 계산은 FDTD 방법과 Scalar 방법을 병행하였다. FDTD 방법으로는 위와 같은 집광 Spot 내의 물질 굴절률 (n,k) 변화로부터 회절한계 이하의 정보가 재생 가능함과 CNR 문턱 현상을 확인하였고, Scalar 방법으로는 물질 굴절률을 직접 다루지 않고 굴절률 변화로부터 기인하는 광의 Amplitude 와 Phase 변화로부터 회절한계 이하의 정보가 재생 가능함을 확인하였다. 이 때 광의 Amplitude 와 Phase 변화를 모델링하기 위하여 지름, 위치, 반사율 변화량, 위상 변화량의 네가지 변수로 정의되는 광 마스크를 도입하였다. Scalar 방법을 이용하여 재생 RF 신호 등 다양한 Super-RENS 디스크의 신호를 계산 활용 할 수 있고 다음의 두가지 광학계에 대하여 계산과 실험으로 얻은 채널 특성 및 RF 신호를 비교하여 각각 오차평균 4.2%, 4.7%로 일치함을 확인하였다. 파장 659nm, NA=0.6, Min Pit Length=173nm ROM 디스크 System, 파장 405nm, NA=0.85 Min Mark Length=75nm WORM 디스크 System.

철을 보호하는 코팅막에 있어서 현재는 우수한 희생방식성을 가지는 아연(Zn)이 많은 분야에서 활용되고 있지만 성능 향상을 위해서는 코팅막의 두께 증가가 필연적이다. 동일한 두께 혹은 그 이하에서 더 나은 내식성을 가지는 코팅막을 개발하는 목적으로 알루미늄(Al)과 마그네슘(Mg)을 이용한 코팅막의 개발을 진행하고 있으며 이 발표에서는 Al과 Mg의 코팅막을 다층으로 제작하여 이전 실험의 Al-Mg 코팅 강판과 비교 하였을 때 어떠한 특성이 나타나는지를 확인하였다. Al-Mg 코팅층은 99.999%의 Al, 99.99%의 Mg target을 사용하여 스퍼터링을 이용하여 냉연강판 위에 코팅하였다. 증발물질과 기판과의 거리는 7cm 이며, 기판은 세척을 실시한 후 클리닝 챔버에 장착하고 ${\sim}10^{-5}Torr$ 까지 진공배기를 실시하였다. 클리닝 챔버가 기본 압력까지 배기되면 아르곤 가스를 주입하고 기판홀더에 -800 V의 직류 전압을 인가하여 약 30분간 글로우 방전 청정을 실시하였다. 기판의 청정이 끝나면 아르곤 가스를 차단하고 코팅 챔버로 시편을 이송 후 코팅층 성분의 구성형태에 따라 Al과 Mg을 코팅하였다. Al-Mg 코팅층은 $5{\mu}m$의 두께를 기준으로 계면의 코팅층이 각각 Al과 Mg이며 다층으로 구성된 코팅층을 제작하였다. 그리고 후속 공정으로 질소 분위기 $400^{\circ}C$에서 10분간 열처리를 하였다. Al-Mg 코팅층을 주사전자현미경(SEM)으로 관찰한 결과, 표면에서는 Al 또는 Mg의 결정성 구조를 보였으며 단면에서는 다층의 경계를 조금이지만 확인할 수 있었으며 글로우방전분광기(GDLS)를 통해 열처리 후에는 층의 구분이 모호해 지는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 그리고 XRD를 통하여 열처리 후 Al-Mg 합금상의 생성도 확인하였다. 또한 Al-Mg가 다층으로 코팅된 강판을 염수분무시험을 통해서 내부식 특성을 확인하였다. Al-Mg 코팅 강판의 염수분무시험 결과, 모든 제작된 코팅층에서 열처리 전 보다 열처리 후 3배 이상의 내식성의 향상효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과로부터 열처리에 의한 합금상 생성 그리고 Al-Mg 박막의 미세구조 변화가 강판의 내식성에 영향을 미치고 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었지만 다층 제작이 미치는 영향에 대해서는 좀 더 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

KIGAM (Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources) and MRAM (Mineral Resources Authority of Mongolia) performed joint survey on Bayan-Onjuul W-Mo mineralized area. Following the survey, we carried out magnetic survey. W-Mo occurrences are located with keeping a certain distance from the northern boundary of granite which has higher magnetic susceptibility values. Also, the 3D imaging results of magnetic inversion show that granite bodies are extended to the W-Mo occurrence areas from the deep main body with decreasing of susceptibility. The results of magnetic data analysis are well matched with the general characteristics of ore solution involved with W mineralization. The further study about the hidden ore deposits which have similar spatial relationship between granite and known WMo occurrences are necessary to improve the economic feasibility.

This paper presents an experimental study on the potential durability enhancement of infrastructures repaired by a sprayed high ductile fiber-reinforced cementitious composite (ECC). For this study, a PVA-ECC which exhibits sprayable properties in the fresh state and tensile strain-hardening behavior in hardened state was sprayed and tested. The experimental results show that the sprayed ECC exhibits mechanical properties with strain capacity comparable to the cast ECC with the same mix design. During loading, the crack widths of ECC are tightly controlled with an average of 30${\mu}m$. It is also revealed that when sprayed ECC is used as a repair material, ductility represented by deformation capacity at peak load of repaired beams in flexure are obviously increased in comparison to those of commercial prepackaged mortar (PM) repaired beams. In addition to high delamination resistance, the significant enhancement of energy absorption capacity and crack width control in ECC repair system suggest that sprayed ECC can be effective in extending the service life of rehabilitated infrastructures.

Unlike most aerodynamic wind-tunnel, Scramjet Engine Test Facility(SETF) of Korea Aerospace Research Institute should simulate enthalpy condition at a flight condition. SETF is a blow-down type, high-enthalpy wind tunnel. To attain a flight condition, a highly stagnated air comes into the test cell through a supersonic nozzle. Also, an air ejector of the SETF is used for simulating altitude conditions of the engine, and facility starting. SETF has a free-jet type test cell and this free-jet type test cell can simulate a boundary layer effect between an airplane and engine using facility nozzle, but it is too difficult to predict the nature of the facility. Therefore it is required to understand the starting characteristics of the facility by experiments. In this paper, the starting characteristics of the SETF and modifications of the ejector are described.

Autoignited lifted flames in laminar jets with hydrogen-enriched methane fuels have been investigated experimentally in heated coflow air. The results showed that the autoignited lifted flame of the methane/hydrogen mixture, which had an initial temperature over 920 K, the threshold temperature for autoignition in methane jets, exhibited features typical of either a tribrachial edge or mild combustion depending on fuel mole fraction and the liftoff height increased with jet velocity. The liftoff height in the hydrogen-assisted autoignition regime was dependent on the square of the adiabatic ignition delay time for the addition of small amounts of hydrogen, as was the case for pure methane jets. When the initial temperature was below 920 K, where the methane fuel did not show autoignition behavior, the flame was autoignited by the addition of hydrogen, which is an ignition improver. The liftoff height demonstrated a unique feature in that it decreased nonlinearly as the jet velocity increased. The differential diffusion of hydrogen is expected to play a crucial role in the decrease in the liftoff height with increasing jet velocity.

The paper describes a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) study of turbulent flow around a cavity. A series of three-dimensional cavities placed in a turbulent boundary layer are simulated at a Reynolds number of $1.0{\times}10^5$ by considering U and h, which represent the velocity at the top and the depth of the cavity, respectively. In order to obtain the appropriate solution for the filtered Navier-Stokes equation for incompressible flow, the computational mesh forms dense close to the wall of the cavity but relatively coarse away from the wall; this helps reduce computation cost and ensure rapid convergence. The Boussinesq hypothesis is employed in the subgrid-scale turbulence model. In order to determine the subgrid-scale turbulent viscosity, the Smagorinsky-Lilly SGS model is applied and the CFL number for time marching is set as 1.0. The results show the flow variations inside cavities of different sizes and shapes.

In this paper, we propose new smoothing filters, i.e., occluding patterns that can accurately correct disparities of occluded areas in the estimated disparity map. An image is composed of several layers and each layer presents similar disparity. Furthermore, the distribution of the estimated disparities has a specific direction around the boundary of the occlusion, and this distribution presents the different direction with respect to the left- and the right-based disparity map. However, typical smoothing filters, such as mean filter and median filter, did not take into account those characteristic. So, they can decrease some error, but they cannot guarantee the accuracy of the corrected disparity. On the contrary, occluding patterns can accurately correct disparities of occluded areas because they consider both the characteristic that occlusion occurs and the characteristic that disparities of the occlusion are ranged, from estimated disparity maps with respect to the left and the right images. We made experiments on occluding patterns with some real stereo image set, and as a result, we can correct disparities of occluded areas more accurately than typical smoothing filters did.
