In this paper, a small internal antenna for dual-band(RFID, PCS) applications is presented. The proposed antenna is a basic PIFA type and has a deformed ground plane under the main radiator. The modified ground plane is spreading the surface current and the antenna miniaturization can be achieved due to the coupling effect. The antenna is manufactured according to the simulation results and the resonance frequency move to low frequency band by 150MHz. And the surface current on the radiator and ground plane is evenly distributed so our suggested antenna can be used for better SAR and HAC performance.

In this study, ballistic impact effects on a helmet were investigated using the AUTODYN-3D program. Two types of materials were used for manufacturing the helmet: single Kevlar and Steel/Kevlar hybrid composites. Furthermore, two types of bullets were used in the simulation: steel spherical and 7.62 mm full-jacketed. In the simulation, the shape deformation of the projectile and internal energy were calculated. From the results, impact velocities above 655 m/s and 845 m/s were required to perforate the Steel/Kevlar helmet with steel spherical and 7.62 mm full-jacketed bullets, respectively. The results show that there was a large difference between the ballistic resistance of the Kevlar and Steel/Kevlar helmets. For the simulation on an NIJ-STD-0106.01 Type II helmet, a 7.62 mm fulljacketed bullet with a striking velocity of 358 m/s was used. Simulation results show that the Steel/Kevlar helmet could resist a 7.62 mm full-jacketed bullet traveling at 358 m/s.

Accurate and fast haptic simulations of deformable objects are desired in many applications such as medical virtual reality. In haptic interactions with a coarse model, the number of nodes near the haptic interaction region is too few to generate detailed deformation. Thus, local refinement techniques need to be developed. Many approaches have employed purely geometric subdivision schemes, but they are not proper in describing the deformation behavior of deformable objects. This paper presents a continuum mechanics-based finite element adaptive method to perform haptic interaction with a deformable object. This method superimposes a local fine mesh upon a global coarse model, which consists of the entire deformable object. The local mesh and the global mesh are coupled by the s-version finite element method (s-FEM), which is generally used to enhance accurate solutions near the target points even more. The s-FEM can demonstrate a reliable deformation to users in real-time.

This paper proposes an inextensible wire-shaped deformation model to simulate catheter behavior. The wire-shaped model consists of serially-connected mass points and massless rigid links. Torsional springs and dampers are employed to accommodate bending. Deformation is computed by updating the rotation angles from the global coordinates while maintaining the fixed length condition. Equations of motion is derived from double pendulum motion. Spring constant is computed using strain energy and potential energy stored in a torsional spring to reflect material property. Simulation is conducted to show deformation of wire model while maintaining inextensibility condition and including material properties. The proposed method guarantees inextensible constraint in the catheter simulation.

With the development of CUP speed and graphic technology, real-time simulation of deformable object is embossed as an essential issue in engineering field. Recently, it has been applied to the surgical training and game animation with haptic force feedback. But real time simulation of deformable objects is not easy because of the conflicting demands of speed and low latency and physical accuracy. In this study, we present the implementation of boundary element method(BEM) which is combined with the nonuniform B-spline surface. It is working together with the real-time simulation technique and the geometry data is altered by handling control points without preprocessing routine.

In this paper, attempts were made to design a preform for a final punch inexpensively using the proposed approximate optimization method or metamodel-based simulation optimization. The design objective of this work is to achieve a uniform distribution of effective strains, the angle dimension of the preformed punch is chosen as a design variable, and maximum underfill ratio is used as a constraint. For this optimization, a computer simulation of a practical punch forging process is run using DEFORM software, in which a preformed punch(workpiece), a master punch(upper die), and a bottom die are dealt with. A validation method is introduced to determine if the simulation results match the actual forging process. In addition, this work presents the detailed design optimization procedure consisting of (i) generation of an initial metamodel, (ii) metamodel optimization, (iii) validation of metamodel-predicted optimum, and (iv) metamodel improvement.

This paper summarizes the components of an explicit aeroelastic solver developed especially for the simulation of dynamic fracture events occurring during the flight of solid propellant rockets. The numerical method combines an explicit Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) version of the Cohesive Volumetric Finite Element (CVFE) scheme, used to simulate the spontaneous motion of one or more cracks propagating dynamically through a domain with regressing boundaries, and an explicit unstructured finite volume Euler code to follow the flow field during the failure event. A key feature of the algorithm is the ability to adaptively repair and expand the fluid mesh to handle the large geometrical changes associated with grain deformation and crack motion.

A programmable drone is a drone developed not only to experience the basic principles of flight but also to control drones through Arduino-based programming. Due to the nature of the training drones, the main users are students who are inexperienced in controlling the drones, which often cause frequent collisions with external objects, resulting in high damage to the drones' frame. In this study, the structural stability of the drone was evaluated by means of a structural dynamics based collision simulation for educational drone frame. Collision simulations were performed on three cases according to the impact angle of $0^{\circ}$, $+15^{\circ}$ and $-15^{\circ}$, using an analytical model with approximately 240,000 tetrahedron elements. Using ANSYS LS-DYNA, which provides excellent functions for the simulation of the dynamic behavior of three-dimensional structures, the stress distribution and strain generated on the drone upper, the drone lower, and the ring assembly were analyzed when the drones collided against the wall at a rate of 4 m/s. Safety factors resulting from the equivalent stress and the yield strain were calculated in the range of 0.72 to 2.64 and 1.72 to 26.67, respectively. To ensure structural stability for areas where stress exceeds yield strain and ultimate strain according to material properties, the design reinforcement is presented.

집적회로의 밀도가 높이기 위해 단일 소자의 크기를 줄이는 과정에서 발생하는 소자의 성능 저하를 줄이기 위해 새로운 구조 및 구성 물질을 변경하는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 기존의 평면 구조를 변형한 3차원 구조의 n-channel FinFet는 소자의 구성 물질을 바꾸지 않고도 쇼트 채널효과와 누설전류를 줄일 수 있다. 다양한 구조의 유전 물질을 응용한 n-channel FinFEET은 기존의 n-channel FinFET보다 소자의 크기를 줄일 수 있는 가능성을 제시하고 있다. FinFETs에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔지만, 유전체 물질을 이용한 n-channel FinFETs의 구조에 대한 연구는 매우 적다. 본 연구는 FinFET의fin channel 영역에 유전 물질을 삽입하여 그 영향을 분석한 연구이다. FinFET의 fin channel 영역에 유전 물질을 삽입하여 평면 구조의 MOSFET에서 fully depletion SOI 구조와 같은 동작을 하도록 만들었다. 유전 물질을 삽입한 FinFET 소자의 전기적 특성을 3차원 TCAD 시뮬레이션을 툴을 이용하여 계산하였다. 유전 물질을 삽입한 n-channel FinFET에서 전자 밀도와 측면 전계의 영향이 기존의 FinFET보다 좋은 특성을 확인하였다. 또한 유전물질을 삽입한 FinFETs은 subthershold swing, 누설전류, 소비전력을 줄여 주었다. 이러한 결과는 n-Channel FinFETs의 성능을 향상시키는데 많은 도움이 될 것이다.
