Mesh generation for the region of interest is prerequisite for numerical analysis of governing partial differential equations describing phenomena with proper physic. Mesh generation is, however, usually considered as a major obstacle for a routine application of numerical approaches in Engineering applications. Therefore automatic mesh generation is highly pursued. In this paper automated quadrilateral surface mesh generation is proposed. According to the present method, Cartesian cells of proper resolution for a region bounding the whole region of interest are first generated and the interior cells are identified. Then projecting their surface meshes onto the boundary surfaces gives surface mesh consisting of quadrilateral cells. This method has been implemented as an application program, and example cases are given.

In this paper. a new automatic multi=block grid generation technique for general 2D regions is introduced. According to this simple and robust method, the domain of interest is first triangulated by using Delaunay triangulation of boundary points, and then geometric information of those triangles is used to obtain block topology. Once block boundaries are obtained. structured grid for each block is generated such that grid lines have $C^0-continuity$ across inter-block boundaries. In the final step of the present method, an elliptic grid generation method is applied to smoothen grid distribution for each block and also to re-locale the inter-block boundaries, and eventually to achieve a globally smooth multi-block structured grid system with $C^1-continuity$.

In this paper, the optimal design of composite rotor blade cross-section is performed using a genetic algorithm. Skin thickness, torsion box thickness and skin lay-up angle are adopted as discrete design variables. The position and width of a torsion box are considered as continuous variables. An object function of optimal design is to minimize the mass of a rotor blade, and constraints are failure index, center mass, natural frequency and blade minimum mass per unit length. Finally, design variables such as the thickness and lay-up angles of a skin, and the thickness, position and width of a torsion box are determined by using an in-house program developed for the optimal design of rotor blade cross-section.

The finite element mesh approach for tool surface description is applied effectively to analyze sheet metal stamping processes. To improve the mesh quality and the stability of the mesh generation process, a gybrid method based on the grid approach and the Delaunay triangulation is proposed in the present work. In the present study, a general method for the mathematical description of arbitrarily shaped tool surface is proposed by introducing the parametric surface approach. A polynomial function employed to describe the base parametric surface and the boundary curves are defined to describe arbitrary three-dimensional trimmed surfaces. To verify the validity of the proposed method, automatic mesh generation is carried out for some shosen complicated parts including actual automotive panel.

This study deals with the optimal method of orthophoto products using the non-photogrammetric scanners. we scanned positive film of aerial photographs at the different resolution and producted the orthophoto using the automatically generated DEM based on the Digital Photogrammetric Workstation, considering aerial image resolutions, DEM interval, resampling method and outpixel size. As a results, the acquired accuracy was worse in horizontal, but good in vertical. So It will be expected that orthophoto using non-photo grammetric scanner is good enough for the acquisition of GIS data and the calculation of soil volumes.

Finite source inversion is performed with a Green's function matrix and geodetic coseismic displacement. Conventionally, the Green's function matrix is constructed using the Okada model (Okada, 1985). However, for more realistic earthquake simulations, recent research has widely adopted the physics-based model, which can consider various material properties such as elasticity, viscoelasticity, and elastoplasticity. We used the physics-based software PyLith, which is suitable for earthquake modeling. However, the PyLith does not provide a mesh generator, which makes it difficult to perform finite source inversions that require numerous subfaults and observation points within the model. Therefore, in this study, we developed CPInterface (COMSOL-PyLith Interface) to improve the convenience of finite source inversion by combining the processes of creating a numerical model including sub-faults and observation points, simulating earthquake modeling, and constructing a Green's function matrix. CPInterface combines the grid generator of COMSOL with PyLith to generate the Green's function matrix automatically. CPInterface controls model and fault information with simple parameters. In addition, elastic subsurface anomalies and GPS observations can be placed flexibly in the model. CPInterface is expected to enhance the accessibility of physics-based finite source inversions by automatically generating the Green's function matrix.

최근 화석연료 대체 에너지원으로서 자동차용으로 연구 개발 및 응용되고 있는 고분자 전해질 연료전지(PEMFC: Proton exchange membrane fuel cells)에서 분리판(Bipolar Plate)은 스택 전체 무게의 80%, 스택 가격의 60% 정도로 가장 높은 비중을 차지한다. 분리판은 연료와 산화제를 공급해주는 통로 및 전지 운전 중에 생성된 물을 제거하는 통로 역할과 anode, cathode로서 전극 역할을 통해 스택 전력을 형성하는 핵심 기능과 전지와 전지 사이의 지지대 역할을 한다. 따라서 분리판은 전기전도성, 내부식성 및 기계적 특성이 우수해야함은 물론이고, 얇고 가벼우며 가공성이 뛰어나야 한다. 현재 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 금속 분리판 소재 중 스테인리스 스틸은 전기적, 기계적 특성 및 내부식성이 우수한 반면, 가격이 비싸고, 중량이 무거운 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 DC 반응성 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 전기적, 기계적 특성 및 내부 식성이 우수한 TiN, TiCN 박막을 스테인리스에 비해 중량이 1/3, 소재 단가가 1/4인 알루미늄 기판 위에 증착하여 박막 물성을 평가하였다. DC Power는 400 W, 기판과 타겟 사이의 거리는100 mm, 공정 압력은 0.5 Pa로 고정하였고, 3 inch의 지름과 순도 99.95%를 갖는 티타늄 타겟을 사용하였다. 공정 가스는 Ar을 주입하였으며, 질소와 탄소의 공급원으로는 질소($N_2$)와 메탄($CH_4$) 가스를 사용하여 챔버 내 주입혼합가스의 전체 유량을 50 sccm으로 고정시켰다. 증착된 박막의 전기적, 기계적 특성을 측정하였고, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscope (SEM)을 이용하여 박막의 미세구조 및 표면 상태를 확인하였다. 또한, 내부식 특성을 평가하기 위해 potentiostatic, potentiodynamic 법을 이용하여 박막의 부식저항을 측정하였다. 증착된 TiN 박막의 경우 질소 함량의 증가에 따라 박막 증착속도는 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 타겟 부근의 질소 라디칼 비율이 증가함에 따라 질화반응이 촉진된 것으로 생각된다. 또한, 증착된 TiN과 TiCN 박막은 반응성 질소 유량과 탄소 유량에 따라 각각 다른 미세구조를 가지는 것을 확인하였다. TiN과 TiCN은 NaCl형의 면심입방격자(FCC)로 같은 구조이며, 격자상수가 비슷하여 전율고용되어 TiCN을 형성하고, 탄소와 질소의 비에 따라 전기적 기계적 특성이 달라짐을 확인하였다.

The studios on the stability of damaged ships have been carried out continuously to prevent frequent damages or sinkings which cause large loss of life and fortunes. For dry cargo ships, continuing losses have resulted in new legislation of the probabilistic damage stability. IMO has developed requirements for the subdivison and damage stability of dry cargo ships based on probabilistic concepts. The calculation of the probabilistc damage stability is a complicated and iterative job hence development of computer programs is indispensable. In this research, programming of the probabilistic damage stability according to new requirements has been done and the results were compared with those carried out by the other foreign packages. New algorithm using a grid model in a transversal section was introduced to reduce efforts in preparing input data for damage scenarios and as a result, has brought significant improvement in efficiency and performance.

This paper describes a Fcore_GenSim(Parameterized FFT Core Generation & Simulation Program), which can be used as an essential If(Intellectual Property) in various OFDM modem designs. The Fcore_Gensim is composed of two parts, a parameterized core generator(PFFT_CoreGen) that generates Verilog-HDL models of FFT cores, and a fixed-point FFT simulator(FXP_FFTSim) which can be used to estimate the SQNR performance of the generated cores. The parameters that can be specified for core generation are FFT length in the range of 64 ~2048-point and word-lengths of input/output/internal/twiddle data in the range of 8-b "24-b with 2-b step. Total 43,659 FFT cores can be generated by Fcore_Gensim. In addition, CBFP(Convergent Block Floating Point) scaling can be optionally specified. To achieve an optimized hardware and SQNR performance of the generated core, a hybrid structure of R2SDF and R2SDC stages and a hybrid algorithm of radix-2, radix-2/4, radix-2/4/8 are adopted according to FFT length and CBFP scaling.
