The solidification rate is of special importance in determining the casting structures and properties. The heat transfer characteristics at the interface between the mold and the casting is one of the major factors that control the solidification rate. The thermal resistance exists due to the air-gap formation at the mold/casting interface during the freezing process. In this study two-dimensional Stefan problem with air-gap resistance in the rectangular mold is considered and the heat transfer characteristics is numerically examined by using the enthalpy method. The effects of the major parameters, such as mold geometry, thermal conductivity, heat transfer coefficient, and initial temperature of casting, on the thermal characteristics are investigated.

Off the southwest coast of Korea, changes in hydrographic fields from stratified state of summer to a vertically homogeneous one of winter appeared to occur most actively in November. During this transitional period coincident thermal and salinity fronts are formed along the boundary between the two water masses of cold coastal water with low salinity and of the Tsushima Current Water. Generally frontal zone lies where the bottom depth is about 70-90m except for the central region of the Cheju Strait in which the influence of the Tsushima Current is weak. Result of the drift bottle experiment in November 1930 supports the existence of the westward coastal current.

Turbulent wake behind a ship propeller has been investigated using the adaptive hybrid 2-frame PTV(Particle Tracking Velocimetry). 400 instantaneous velocity fields were measured according to 4 different blade phases and ensemble-averaged to investigate the spatial evolution of the vortical structure of near wake within one propeller diameter downstream. The phase averaged mean velocity fields show the potential wake and the viscous wake formed by the boundary layers developed on the blade surfaces. As the tip vortex evolves downstream, the slipstream is contracted and the turbulent intensity is decreased with viscous dissipation and turbulent diffusion.

수치표고모델, 정사영상과 같은 공간영상정보를 구축하기 위해서는 입체영상을 이동한 영상정합(image matching)의 과정이 필수적이며, 단영상 또는 스테레오 영상을 이용하여 대상물의 3차원 정보를 재구성하고 복원하는 기술은 사진측량 및 컴퓨터 비전 분야의 주요 연구 중의 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 화소값의 유사성과 상호관계성을 고려하는 MRF 모델을 이용하여 영상정합을 수행하였다. MRF 모델은 공간분석이나 물리적 현상의 전후관계(contextural dependencies)의 분석을 위한 확률이론의 한 분야로 다양한 공간정보를 통합할 수 있는 방법을 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 기준영상의 화소에 시차를 할당하는 접근 방법으로 확률모델의 일종인 마르코프 랜덤필드(MRF)모델에 기반한 영상정합기법을 제안하였고, 공간내 화소의 상호관계를 고려해주므로 대상물의 경계부분에서의 매칭 정확도를 향상시켰다. 영상정합문제에서의 MRF 기본가정은 영상 내 특정화소의 시차는 그 주위화소의 시차에 의한 부분정보에 따라 결정이 가능하다는 것이다. 깁스분포(gibbs distribution)를 사용하여 사후(posteriori) 확률값을 유도해내고, 이를 최대사후확률(MAP: Maximum a Posteriori)추정법을 이용하여 에너지함수를 생성하였다. 생성된 에너지함수의 최적화(Optimization)를 위하여 본 연구에서는 전역최적화기법인 multiway cut 기법을 사용하여 영상정합에 있어 에너지함수를 최소로 하는 이미지화소에 대한 시차레이블을 구하여 영상정합을 수행하였다.

Diff-Serv(DS) is a mechanism by which network service providers can offer differing levels of network service to different traffic, in so providing quality of service(QoS) to their customers. Because this mechanism has been deployed just for fixed hosts with the Token Bucket mechanism according to AggF(Aggregate Flow) instead of each flow, DS can not suggest effective usability of traffic resources. In this paper, we use WFQ mechanism for traffic conditioner and scheduling method monitoring the AggF and the results will be used to control the next flows coming in TC. So it will control traffic rate dynamically and suggest efficient usability of bandwidth.

Two wheel type electric vehicles driving with the electric motors for guard are used increasingly at the airport and harbor place to move between narrow indoors. This type two wheel electric vehicles are powerd by batteries and using the steering control apparatus including multi sensors and handle operating device for forward and backward, rotating moving. At this research, we design sensor interfacing electronic control system use only the center of foot balance without the handle type steering apparatus. This design is for safety of drivers at one's cornering.

A Computational study was carried out in order to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of circular cylinder moving near the wavy wall at a low Reynolds number of 50. Lattice Boltzmann method was used to simulate the flow field and immersed boundary method was combined to represent the moving cylinder and wavy wall regardless of the constructed grid in the domain. The aerodynamics characteristics of the cylinder moving near the wavy wall were represented by the comparing the lifting coefficients with various altitudes (H/D) and wave length and amplitudes of wavy wall. It indicated that the twice of increasing-decreasing variations of lifting coefficient are obtained while the cylinder moves near the wavy wall. The first variation is obtained where the cylinder locates near the peak of the wavy wall. Another variation occurs when the distance to the wavy wall becomes longer after passing the peak. It was also classified that three different patterns of relation between the lifting and drag coefficient of the cylinder. However, the classification is limited to the case of the same order of altitude, amplitude and wave length of the wavy wall.

The E-polarized scattering problems by a perfect conductor strip grating are analyzed by the method of moments. For an E-polarization the induced surface current density is expected to blow up at the strip both edges. Then the induced surface current density on the strip is expanded in a series of multiplication of Ultraspherical ploynomials with zeroth order and functions with appropriate edge boundary condition. The numerical results for current density and reflection cofficient are compared with other functions, it is shown that numerical results better improves the convergence of the moment method soulutions with general incident angles than the existing several other functions. The sharp variation points in the magnitude of geometric-optical reflection coefficient can be moved by varying the incident angle, strip width, and strip spacing.

Considering environmental issues and lack of space, it is a necessity to minimize the amount of excavation. Various types of excavation methods are being used in practice. This study proposes a reasonable method for estimating the earth pressure acting on a reinforced wall in front of a excavated slope. The measured data in the field and numerical analyses were used. Results of the study shows that the earth pressure acting on the excavated wall is less than that estimated by Rankine's equations. It was shown that when the excavated slope is used with the reinforced wall, the pressures acting on the reinforced wall can be greatly reduced.

The study was explored socket pressure distributions on a trans-femoral amputee with a suction socket in static and dynamic situations. Even when the amputee stood in the anatomically neutral position, significant pressure concentrations were observed in the lateral, medial, and posterior planes of the socket. During free level walking, a significant shifting pattern of pressure concentration areas was observed. High socket pressure was observed in the lateral, medial-anterior and posterior walls during mid-stance or push-off period. Socket pressure measurement will be one of the good tool to determine the optimal socket-limb interface.
