In this study, the simulation program using the randomwalk model is developed. Generally, students in the chemistry class have some difficulties to understand the motion of atomic particles or molecules. And then, they have many mis-conceptions about the motion of molecules. This program expressed by the computer simulations using the randomwalk theory may help students to understand visually the process of molecular motion. This program can be used easily, because it is based on Web by application of JAVA languages. The program consists of two parts. One is 'Diffusion' program, expressing the process of molecular diffusion as a computer simulation. Another is 'Randomwalk' program, expressing the trajectory of molecular motion to help the students to follow the random motion virtually.

The dispersion in the oscillatory flow generated by gravitational waves above the spatially periodic repples is studied. The steady parts of equations describing the orbit of the passive particle in a two dimensional field are assumed to be simply trigonometric functions. From the view point of nonlinear dynamics, the motion of the particle is chaotic under externally time-periodic perturbations which come from the wave motion. Two cases considered here are; (i) shallow water, and (ii) deep water approximation.

담수가 해수에서 흘러드는 하구에서는 성층이 관측되며 이것은 난류의 미세구조를 변화시키는 주요 원인으로 작용한다. 이러한 성층화 현상은 하구 내 부유사의 군집인 하구 최대혼탁수(Estuarine Turbidity Maximum, ETM)의 형성에 영향을 주게 된다. 본 연구는 성층의 하구 최대 혼탁수 생성 메커니즘에 관심을 두고 수치모델링을 활용한 미세 난류의 부유사 거동 분석에 초점을 두었다. 성층과 전단응력 사이의 난류 혼합을 대표하는 유동인 켈빈-헬름홀츠 불안정성(Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability)을 도입하고 성층 경계면 근처에서 부유사의 이송을 높은 레이놀즈수(Reynolds number) 유동에서 RANS(Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes Simulation)보다 다양한 규모의 에너지 획득이 가능하여 미세 난류 구조 재현에 장점을 갖는 Large-eddy Simulation(LES)를 활용하여 모사하였다. 여기에서, 부유사는 주위 유동의 물리적 특성 변화에 영향을 미치지 않는 Passive scalar로 가정하였으며 $6^{th}$-order Lagrangian 다항식 보간법을 적용하여 입자의 이동 속도를 계산하고 이를 시간에 대해 적분함으로써 이동 궤적을 추적하였다. 수치 모델 결과 Lock-exchange 유동 내에서 켈빈-헬름홀츠 불안정성이 발생함에 따라 경계면 주위에 위치한 부유사가 billow 내에서 트랩핑(trapping)되는 것을 보여주어 KH-billow 혹은 braids 내의 미세 난류에 의한 영향이 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 LES를 활용하여 성층류 및 성층류 내의 부유사 혼합을 모사하여 난류의 정도에 따른 이동 궤적의 차이에 대해서 분석함으로써 성층의 난류 강도 저하에 따른 부유사의 군집으로의 영향에 대해 서술한다.

The author has analysed profile of flow in rear of motion with single ball with low Reynolds number performed interface layers. For each system whose viscosity of the lower phase is as large as or large that of the upper phase, the profile has based on the thickness of the ball in the lower phase is nearly independent of both the ball single and the physical properties of the upper phase of the solution. The examine of the characteristics between Darwin's total displacement of the fluid and data obtained in this study, the averaged volume of each cases was corrected by the viscosity in the lower phase. When the viscosity in the lower phase is less than that of the upper phase, the volume based on the displacement of the fluid in rear region of ball are influenced by both ball size and the viscosity ratio of the upper phase to the lower phase. In the range of the Reynolds number less than a constant values, the volume ratio is influenced by both Reynolds number and Moltion number but mainly Reynolds. In range of Reynolds number over than the value, the volume ratio is independent of Reynolds number, but influenced by Moltion number.

The present study investigates numerically particle laden flow through compressor cascade. In general, a lot of turbine engines are affected by various particles which are suspending in the atmosphere. Especially in the case of aircraft aviating in volcanic, industrial and desert region including many particles, each components of engine system are damaged severely. That damage modes are erosion of compressor binding and rotor path components, partial or total blockage of cooling passage and engine control system degradation.. Initial damages can not be serious but cumulation of damages influences on safety of aircraft control and economical maintenance cost of engine system can be increased. When dust, materials and volcanic particles in the atmosphere flow in the compressor, it is necessary to predict damaged and deposited region of compressor blades. To the various flow inlet angle, predictions of particles trajectory in compressor cascade by Lagrangian method are presented and impulses by impaction of particles at blade surface are calculated. By the definition of particle deposition efficiency, characteristics of particles impact are considered quantitatively. With these prediction and experimental data, erosion rates are predicted for two materials - ceramic, soft metal - on compressor blade surface. Improvements like coating of blade surface could be found, by above prediction.

Background: It is necessary to consider the overall countermeasure for analysis of nuclear activities according to the increase of the nuclear facilities like nuclear power and reprocessing plants in the neighboring countries including China, Taiwan, North Korea, Japan and South Korea. South Korea and comprehensive nuclear-test-ban treaty organization (CTBTO) are now operating the monitoring instruments to detect radionuclides released into the air. It is important to estimate the origin of radionuclides measured using the detection technology as well as the monitoring analysis in aspects of investigation and security of the nuclear activities in neighboring countries. Materials and methods: A three-dimensional forward/backward trajectory model has been developed to estimate the origin of radionuclides for a covert nuclear activity. The developed trajectory model was composed of forward and backward modules to track the particle positions using finite difference method. Results and discussion: A three-dimensional trajectory model was validated using the measured data at Chernobyl accident. The calculated results showed a good agreement by using the high concentration measurements and the locations where was near a release point. The three-dimensional trajectory model had some uncertainty according to the release time, release height and time interval of the trajectory at each release points. An atmospheric dispersion model called long-range accident dose assessment system (LADAS), based on the fields of regards (FOR) technique, was applied to reduce the uncertainties of the trajectory model and to improve the detective technology for estimating the radioisotopes emission area. Conclusion: The detective technology developed in this study can evaluate in release area and origin for covert nuclear activities based on measured radioisotopes at monitoring stations, and it might play critical tool to improve the ability of the nuclear safety field.

In order to improve the accuracy of particle tracking prediction techniques near the Korean Strait, this study compared and analyzed a particle tracking model based on a seawater flow numerical model and a machine learning based on a particle tracking model using field observation data. The data used in the study were the surface drifter buoy movement trajectory data observed in the Korea Strait, prediction data by machine learning (linear regression, decision tree) using the tide and wind data from three observation stations (Gageo Island, Geoje Island, Gyoboncho), and prediciton data by numerical models (ROMS, MOHID). The above three data were compared through three error evaluation methods (Correlation Coefficient (CC), Root Mean Square Errors (RMSE), and Normalized Cumulative Lagrangian Separation (NCLS)). As a final result, the decision tree model had the best prediction accuracy in CC and RMSE, and the MOHID model had the best prediction results in NCLS.

남극에 상주하는 여러 과학기지 근처 해역에서 5 mm 이하의 크기를 가지는 미세플라스틱이 다량 발견되고 있으며, 그에 따라 과학기지에서 방출하는 방류수가 미세플라스틱의 지역 소스로 여겨지고 있다. 현재는 미세플라스틱의 오염 수준을 이해하는 정도에서 그쳤으며, 미세플라스틱의 물리적인 운송 메커니즘을 이해하고자 하는 시도는 상대적으로 부족한 실정이다. 남극 세종과학기지 근처에서도 미세플라스틱이 발견됨에 따라 본 연구에서는 과학기지 인근인 마리안 소만(Marian Cove)에서의 미세플라스틱 운송 메커니즘을 확인하고자 한다. 연구 대상 지역에서 미세플라스틱의 체류 시간은 짧기 때문에, 미세플라스틱에 생물오손 또는 풍화작용이 일어나기에는 충분하지 않은 시간이다. 따라서, 마리안 소만에서 발견된 미세플라스틱에 대해 연직 속도에 따라 확실히 가라앉는 그룹과 확실히 떠오르는 그룹으로 나누어 입자의 이송 메커니즘을 파악하였다. 해수 유동 모델과 파랑 모델을 결합하여 마리안 소만의 해수 흐름을 재현하였으며, 과학기지 방류 구 위치에서 방출된 미세플라스틱의 이송 경로는 라그랑지안 입자 추적(Lagrangian Particle Tracking) 방법을 이용하였다. 본 연구에서는 미세플라스틱의 궤적을 설명하기 위해 입자의 이송에 영향을 주는 힘을 결정할 수 있는 무차원 수 HK angle을 제안하였으며, 이를 이용하여 마리안 소만에서의 미세플라스틱 이송을 설명하였다. 대상 해역 내에서 확실히 떠오르는 그룹은 표층 흐름을 따라 해안선에 도달하였으며, 확실히 가라앉는 그룹은 방출 직후 빠르게 가라 앉으며 방출 위치 근처인 해저에 집적되었다. HK angle에 따르면, 마리안 소만의 연직 흐름이 강할 경우에는 미세플라스틱의 특성에 관계없이 해수 흐름을 따라 이송됨을 확인하였다. 더 나아가, 조석에 따라 미세플라스틱의 방출 시간을 달리하고, 방출 위치를 달리하여 모의함으로써 마리안 소만과 같이 작은 만에서 미세플라스틱 오염도를 줄이기 위한 적절한 방류수 방출 시간 및 위치를 제안하였다.

The atmospheric aerosols of $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$ were collected at Gosan site of Jeju Island during 2012- 2013. Their ionic and elemental species were analyzed in order to examine the composition variation of the haze aerosols in accordance with the pathway of air mass. The concentrations of $nss-SO_4{^{2-}}$, $NO_3{^-}$, and $NH_4{^+}$ increased 2.1~3.7 times in coarse particle and 3.1~6.5 times in fine particle modes, respectively, showing especially high $NO_3{^-}$ concentrations in fine particles during the haze days. The concentrations of S, Zn, Pb and K increased 3.0~5.6 times in coarse particles and 3.2~7.7 times in fine particles during the haze days, on the other hand Al, Fe, and Ca concentrations were high only in coarse particles. Due to the back trajectory analysis, the concentrations of $nss-SO_4{^{2-}}$ and $NO_3{^-}$ for haze days were high when the inflow pathway of air mass was from China, especially a high increase of $NO_3{^-}$ as through the south of China. The $NO_3{^-}/nss-SO_4{^{2-}}$ concentration ratio was relatively high in coarse mode as air mass inflow from China, but in fine mode it was high as air mass passing through the Korean peninsula.

To investigate the possibility of using artificial means for the control of shear layers in swirl jets, a shear excitation device is introduced. The device consists of co-centric dual nozzles with internal lobes (i.e., convex surfaces) of small height to induce disturbance. The number of convexities can be varied to produce the various modes in azimuthal direction. The acquired velocity data of the swirling jets, with and without the lobes, are numerically simulated in 2-D contour plots and 3-D particle trace plots. The results are compared with the baseline (i.e., no excitation case) at various excitation modes. Conclusively it is observed that the artificial excitation method is effective in the control of the vortical structure in swirling jets.
