The three main physiological functions of nose are air-conditioning, filtering and smelling. Knowledge of airflow characteristics in nasal cavities is essential to understand the physiological and pathological aspects of nasal breathing. Several studies have utilized physical models of the healthy nasal cavity to investigate the relationship between nasal anatomy and airflow. In our laboratory, there have been a series of experimental investigations on the nasal airflow in normal and deformed nasal cavity models by PIV under both constant and periodic flow conditions. In this time, airflow inside normal nasal cavity is investigated numerically by the FVM general purpose code. The comparisons with PIV measurement are appreciated. Heat and humidity transfer is dealt numerically. Dense CT data and careful treatment of model surface under the ENT doctor’s advice provide more sophisticated cavity models for both PIV experiment and numerical grid system. Average and RMS velocity distributions have been obtained for inspirational and expirational nasal. Temperature distribution, heat and humidity transfer through the mucosa are obtained.

The purpose of this study establishes the deep neural network (DNN) and Decoder models to predict the flow and thermal fields of three-dimensional wavy wings as a passive flow control. The wide ranges of the wavy geometric parameters of wave amplitude and wave number are considered for the various the angles of attack and the aspect ratios of a wing. The huge dataset for training and test of the deep learning models are generated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The DNN and Decoder models exhibit quantitatively accurate predictions for aerodynamic coefficients and Nusselt numbers, also qualitative pressure, limiting streamlines, and Nusselt number distributions on the surface. Particularly, Decoder model regenerates the important flow features of tiny vortices in the valleys, which makes a delay of the stall. Also, the spiral vortical formation is realized by the Decoder model, which enhances the lift.

본 연구에서는 한국형 인공심장의 혈액주머니 내 혈액 유동에 대한 수치적 해석 결과를 제시하였다. 혈액 유동은 2차원 비정상 유동으로 가정하였으며. 이를 해석하기 위하여 유한요소 기반의 상용코드인 ADINA를 사용하였다. 액츄에이터와 혈액주머니사이의 강체-고체 접촉, 그리고 혈액주머니와 혈류 사이의 고체-유체 상호작용을 모두 계산에서 반영하였다. 본 연구에서는 혈액주머니의 형상설계 과정에서 제시되었던 3가지 모델에 대해서 계산을 수행하고 이들의 혈류역학적인 적합성을 분석하였다. 계산결과에 의하면 혈액주머니의 수축 시는 출구로의 강한 흐름과 입구 부분에서의 정체영역이 관찰되었다. 이완 시에는 외부로부터 입구로 강한 혈류가 유입되고 있으며, 닫힌 출구에서 부근에서는 재순환 영역이 발생한다. 수축 시 전단응력은 출구 모서리 부근에서 극한값들을 가지게 되며, 이완 시에는 주로 입구 모서리와 액츄에이터 접촉면에서 최소, 최고치를 보여주고 있다.

In this review paper, concepts in optofluidics are applied to an advanced manufacturing technology based on self-assembled microparts. The "optical" aspect of optofluidics will be described in the context of photolithography, and the "fluidic" aspect will be discussed in the context of self-assembly. First, optofluidic maskless lithography will be introduced as a dynamic fabrication method to generate microparticles in microfluidic channels. Next, the history and application of optofluidic lithography will be presented.

For the laryngeal function assessment, we developed a measurement system of speech sound and air flow rate. The speech sound was transduced with a standard omnidirectional condenser microphone and orally emitted air flow was measured with pneumotachometer using differential pressure transducer.

An analysis and design method for reducing aerodynamic noise in high-speed trains based on biomimetics of noiseless flight of owl is proposed. Wind tunnel testing and numerical CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation for the basic inter-coach spacing model are carried out, and their results compared. To determine the effect of scaling of the owl's flight feather on the noise reduction, two-fold and a four-fold scaled up model of the feather are constructed, and the numerical simulations are carried out to obtain the aerodynamic noise levels for each scale. Original model is found to reduce the noise level by 10 dB, while two-fold increase in length dimensions reduces the noise by 12 dB. Validation of numerical solution using wind tunnel experimental measurements are presented as well.

준분자 동력학 기법을 적용한 새로운 골-재형성 해석 방법을 제안 하였다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 연구에서 고려하지 못 하였던 해변골 내의 유체 압력이 골-재형성에 미치는 영향 까지를 고려한 해석 모델이 제안 되었다. 골-재형성의 대상 모델로 추체 시상면상의 2-D 모델을 개발 하였으며, 약 2kN의 수직 압축력에 해당되는 1.8564mm의 일정 변위 조건에 따른 모델내의 준분자들의 재배치 과정을 해석 하였다. 수렴된 피질골 및 해면골 모델의 준 분자의 형상은 실제 추체의 모양과 일치된 형태를 보이고 있었으며 계산된 수핵 압력 변화도 기존의 in-Vitro 실험 결과와 비교적 일치 하여 본 모델의 타당성을 입증 할 수 있었다.

In this study, the characteristics of muscle relaxation were analyzed by the experimental and numerical method. A skin tissue was produced by imitational biological tissue using the agar powder, saline solution and sugar. The tissue was exposed to three types of wavelength-blue visible radiation(410 nm), red visible radiation(635 nm), and infrared ray(830 nm). The temperature results along the depth of tissue were measured according to the variation of light wavelength and irradiation time. The temperature change of the tissue shown up similar pattern regardless of the light wavelength kinds. The wavelength of infrared ray penetrated strongly into tissue between 3.2 mm and 11.4 mm. Also, the temperature change with the irradiation time was small, and the temperature value of the infrared ray was the largest. As a result, the muscle relaxation will occur mainly at the infrared wavelength.

Translocation of biopolymers such as DNA and RNA through a nano-pore is an important process in biotechnology applications. The translocation process of a biopolymer through an artificial nano-pore in the presence of a fluid solvent is simulated. The polymer motion is simulated by Langevin molecular dynamics (MD) techniques while the solvent dynamics are taken into account by lattice-Boltzmann method (LBM). The hydrodynamic interactions are considered explicitly by coupling the polymer and solvent through the frictional and the random forces. From simulation results we found that the hydrodynamic interactions between polymer and solvent speed-up the translocation process. The translocation time ${\tao}_T$ scales with the chain length N as ${{\tau}_T}^{\propto}N^{\alpha}$. The value of scaling exponents($\alpha$) obtained from our simulations are $1.29{\pm}0.03$ and $1.41{\pm}0.03$, with and without hydrodynamic interactions, respectively. Our simulation results are in good agreement with the experimentally observed value of $\alpha$, which is equal to $1.27{\pm}0.03$, particularly when hydrodynamic interaction effects are taken into account.

For the first time, airflow in the nasal cavity of a normal Korean adult is investigated experimentally by PIV measurement. Nasal airflow can be subdivided into two interrelated categories; nasal airflow resistance and heat and mass transfer between the air stream and the walls of the nasal cavity. In this study, thanks to a new method for the model casting by a combination of the rapid prototyping and curing of clear silicone. a transparent rectangular box containing the complex nasal cavity can be made fur PIV experiments. The CBC PIV algorithm is used for analysis. Average and RMS distributions are obtained for inspirational and expiration nasal airflows. Data fer the airflow at the end of meatuses are obtained for the first time. Comparisons between western and Korean nasal airflows are appreciated. Due to the difference in geometry of the frontal part of nasal cavity, the flow near nares shows the difference.
