Parabolic approximation wave models based on $Pad{\acute{e}}$ approximants are analyzed in order to calculate wave transformation. In this study a $Pad{\acute{e}}(2,2)$ parabolic approximation model is developed to increase the accuracy of computation in comparison with the existing models. Numerical studies on a constant sloping bed show that the new model proves to allow for much more successful treatment of large angles of incidence than is possible using the previously available models.

Wave-induced currents drive nearshore transport processes, and hence an accurate understanding of wave-current interaction is required for proper management of coastal zone. This paper presents details of an adaptive quadtree grid based numerical model of the coupled wave climate and depth-averaged current field. The model accounts for wave breaking, shoaling, refraction, diffraction, wave-current interaction, set-up and set-down, mixing processes, bottom friction effects, and movement of land-water interface at the shoreline. The wave period- and depth-averaged governing equations arc discrctized explicitly by means of an Adarns¬Bashforth second-order finite difference technique on adaptive hierarchical staggered quadtree grids. Results from the numerical model are in reasonable agreement with the laboratory data of longshore current generated by oblique waves on a plane beach (Visser 1980, 1991).

This paper proposes the use of decision tree classification for the measuring pattern recognition from industrial Computed Radiography(CR) images used in nondestructive evaluation(NDE) of steel-tubes. It appears that NDE problems are naturally desired to have machine learning techniques identify patterns and their classification. The attributes of decision tree are taken from NDE test procedure. Geometric features, such as radiative angle, gradient and distance, are estimated from the analysis of input image data. These factors are used to make it easy and accurate to classify an input object to one of the pre-specified classes on decision tree. This algerian is to simplify the characterization of NDE results and to facilitate the determination of features. The experimental results verify the usefulness of proposed algorithm.

복잡한 형상을 지닌 터빈 블래이드의 결함을 검사하기 위해 현재 $35^\circ,\; 38^\circ,\; 40^\circ$의 횡파 굴절각을 지닌 탐촉자를 사용하고 있다. 이와 같은 굴절각은 초음파 빔의 경로를 Snell의 법칙에 의해 설정하고 있다. 그러나 터빈 블래이드 검사용 초음파 탐촉자를 제작하는 과정에서 $35^\circ$의 횡파 굴절각을 갖는 경사각 탐촉자는 제작이 어려움을 알았다. 이러한 원인은 철강재료의 종파임계각이 $33.2^\circ$의 횡과굴절각에 대응되며, 종파임계각 근처에서는 전반사 현상 때문에 에너지 투과율이 매우 작아 실제 시험대상체에 입사되는 에너지가 거의 없으며 또한 횡파굴절각이 약 $37.5^\circ$ 일때에 휭파의 에너지 투과율이 최대가 되어 wedge를 $37.5^\circ$ 이하의 횡파굴절각을 갖도록 설계하더라도 측정을 하면 $37.5^\circ$ 근처의 횡파굴 절각을 갖게된다. 즉, 종파임계각 근처에서는 전반사 현상에 의해 경계면에서의 에너지 투과가 매우 작아 횡파 굴절각은 Snell의 법칙이 아닌 초음파 에너지의 투과 정도를 나타내는 echo transmittance의 크기에 의해 결정된다.

A numerical model for harbour oscillation is presented by use of Galerkin finite element method. The governing equation is used by the modified mild slope equation derived from Chen (1986) in which bottom friction is incorporated. Since the existing absorbing boundary condition. however. is shown to be incorrect correct boundary condition and forcing term due to an incident plane wave are rederived. Computation results for a rectangular harbour are shown in comparison with both laboratory data and existing numerical results. After the values of friction factor (f) and reflection coefficient (K$_{r}$) are discussed, the set (K$_{r}$=0, 94, f=0) is found to be best fitted to the laboratory data of the rectangular harbour.

In the present study, for fully-open rectangular harbors, sensitivity analyses are made for the major parameters which are relevant to the practical application of a hybrid element model widely used fur the analysis of harbor oscillation. The results show that it is desirable to extend the finite element region to the area in which depth change is not large and that it is appropriate to take the depth of the outer region for analytic solution as the average along the boundary between the two regions. It is expected that the number of Fourier components of the analytic solution may not be important for a constant-depth simple-shaped harbor but its significance may increase for harbors of varying depth and complex geometry. It is found that the effect of incident wave direction is not significant for the first resonance mode but its effect becomes important as the bottom slope increases, especially for the higher resonance modes.

In this study, a couple of ordinary differential equations which can describe random waves are derived from the Boussinesq equations. Incident random waves are generated by using the TMA(TEXEL storm, MARSEN, ARSLOE) shallow-water spectrum. The governing equations are integrated with the 4-th order Runge-Kutta method. By using newly derived wave equations, nonlinear energy interaction of propagating waves in constant depth is studied. The characteristics of random waves propagate over a sinusoidally varying topography lying on a sloping beach are also investigated numerically. Transmission and reflection of random waves are considerably affected by nonlinearity.

In this study, a numerical scheme based on physical optics method is developed to predict RCS of perfectly conducting body. The scheme is verified through the comparisons of numerical values of cylinder and sphere with analytical ones. It is also applied to compute RCS of a fast naval craft. Major reflection of this ship at threat angle of 0 degrees is found to be due to superstructure and stern part of main hull. In order to investigate the shaping effects on the ship. inclination angles of the stern of main hull and superstructure are set to 12 degrees. The RCS of the ship with shaping is proven to be much reduced in comparison with one without shaping.

In this paper, a simple scheme of optical interconnections between M input and N output terminals using mode speckle patterns generated in the mulitmode optical fiber is described. It is shown that fully parallel nonblocking interconnections are accomplished by using properly generated mode speckle patterns as destination codes and dectecting the generated mode speckle patterns separately using M multiplexed Vander Lugt matched filters at each output terminal. The orthogonality condition of mode speckle patterns is investigated by either changing the launching angles or rotating the polarization direction of the beam. Preliminary experiments by use of a 4$\times$4 graded refractive-index multimode fiber coupler whose core diameter was 50 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were performed to show the feasibility of our scheme.

Simulations of three-dimensional numerical wave tank are performed to investigate wave force acting on a large cylindrical structure and consequent wave deformation, which are induced by bore after breaking waves. The numerical model is based on the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with a finite-difference method combined with a volume of fluid(VOF) method, which is capable of tracking the complex free surface, including wave breaking. In order to promote wave breaking of the incident wave, the approach slope was built seaward of the structure with a constant slope and a large cylindrical structure was installed on a flat bed. The incident waves were broken on the approach slope or flat bed by its wave height. In the present study, all waves acting on the large cylindrical structure were limited to breaking bore after wave breaking. The effects of the position of the structure and the incident wave height on the wave force and wave transformations were mainly investigated with the concern of wave breaking. Further, the relations between the variation of wave energy by wave propagation after wave breaking and wave force acting on the structure were discussed to give the understanding of the full-linear wave-structure interactions in three-dimensional wave fields.
