Accurate predictions and simulations of the behavior of space structures based on analytical models become more important. In order to perform analysis to support the design of Ku-band transponder panel for the Communications and Broadcasting Satellite(CBS), mathematical models of the panel were generated in the form of finite element models. Test verification of these models is required before the transponder panel can be certified for launch environments. A modal identification was performed to obtain modal parameters which can be compared with the test results using correlation techniques. This paper approaches the sensor placement from the standpoint of the structural dynamicist who uses the modal parameter obtained during launch environmental test. The models were validated by performing a test-analysis correlation and updating analysis. It was proved that the Ku-band transponder panel satisfies the environmental test requirements.

We simulate an emulsion system under simple shear rates to analyze its rheological characteristics using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). We calculate the relative viscosity of an emulsion under a simple shear flow along with changes in temperature, shear rate, and surfactant concentration. The relative viscosity of emulsions decreased with an increase in temperature. We observed the shear-thinning phenomena, which is responsible for the inverse proportion between the shear rate and viscosity. An increase in the interfacial tension caused a decrease in the relative viscosity of the decane-in-water emulsion because the increased deformation caused by the decreased interfacial tension significantly influenced the wall shear stress.

This study focuses on a detailed ball-bearing model for spur gears. The nonlinear ball-bearing stiffness with radial clearance is derived and calculated. The bearing stiffness is used to the 3-degree-of-freedom (DOF) spur gear system model. The mode characteristics of the gear system model are analyzed and verified by performing finite-element analysis (FEA). From the results, the bearing stiffness on the radial clearance was more sensitive under low-load conditions compared to high-load conditions. The bearing stiffness significantly affected the gear dynamics in the low-frequency region, while the mesh stiffness affected the high natural frequency.

A deterministic approach of slope stability, which is generally corresponding to the model of a simple non-linear function for slopes, is problematic in that it does not account the versatile characteristics of ground layers in an effective way. To resolve this problem, this study proposes a new way of analyzing slope stability, so-called “genetic algorithm method, ” so as to reflect some particular conditions pertaining to the grounds under concern. Similarities and differences in slope stability that may exist between homogeneous and multiple ground layers are examined in a competitive manner, Overall, though similarities deemed a little bit salient, the algorithm method turned out to be very applicable to estimating the validity of slope stability. Furthermore, an additional effort to consider long-standing sequential and dynamic changes in both the amount of rainfall and the underground water level is made in order to improve the results.

In this paper, an algorithm that enhances the conventional directional CSMA/CA protocol in IEEE 802.15.3c is proposed under saturation environments. For the algorithm, a Markov chain model is presented and analyzed in no-ACK mode. The effects of directional antennas and the features of IEEE 802.15.3c MAC are considered in the model. The optimal sizes of contention window are derived from the numerical results. The numerical results show that the proposed directional CSMA/CA algorithm outperforms conventional one. The overall analysis is verified by simulation. The obtained results provide the criterion for selecting the optimal parameters and developing a MAC protocol that enhances the performance of mmWave WPANs.

In this paper, we present a general model for synthetic transmit focusing method using plane waves (STF-PW) of which the properties are investigated through mathematical analysis and compared with those of the conventional focusing method. The analysis results show that STF-PW produces non-diffracting beams in the sense that their main lobe widths do not change with depth. We also present a method for synthesis of plane waves to obtain a desired main lobe width while preventing grating lobe generation and a method for broadening the region over which the non-diffracting property is maintained. The proposed model and analysis results were validated through computer simulations.

유역의 물수지는 기상인자, 지형, 토양, 식생 등 여러 가지 인자들에 의해 결정된다. 물수지 분포를 평가하기 위해 수문모형의 모의 시 필요한 수문요소 조건들을 정보화하게 되며, 동시에 토양수분의 특성, 강우 입력자료, 유역의 지형학적 특성들은 불확실성에 기인하는 요소로 작용한다. 이러한 수문모형 모의 시 불확실성을 제거하기 위해 모형 초기조건에 대한 다각적인 분석이 선행이 필요하다. 특히 토양수분은 대기와 지표 사이의 상호작용에 작용하는 중요한 수문기상학적 인자로 평가되고 있다. 토양수분 데이터 자료를 이용하여 강우-유출모형의 입력자료를 구축하여 실제 토양수분의 변동성을 파악하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 유역기반의 유출현황을 산정하기 위해 매우 유용한 초기조건으로 그 역할이 기대된다. 현장에서 관측하는 토양수분 데이터는 넓은 유역의 토양수분을 대표하는 자료로 사용되기에는 한계점이 있으며, 위성기반 토양수분 데이터는 원격탐사를 통해 획득되기 때문에 토양수분의 시 공간적인 변동성 파악에 용의하며 경제성 또한 높다. 이에 따라, 본 연구에서는 유역의 수문순환 분석을 하고, 위성기반 토양수분의 적용 가능성을 평가하기 위해 Aqua위성에 탑재된 Advanced Mircowave Scanning Radiometer Earth Observing System(AMSR-E)와 Metop-A의 Advanced SCATterometer(ASCAT)의 토양수분 데이터를 이용하여 강우-유출모델의 초기조건을 산정하였다. 또한, 이에 대한 검증을 위해 기존 강우인자 초기조건 및 지점에서 관측된 토양수분 초기조건 등을 비교하여 통계분석을 실시하였다.

Public data open is one of the important tasks of Korea Government 3.0. By making open data available to the private sector, the goal is to create jobs, increase innovation and improve quality of life. Public data open is a policy that emphasized its importance worldwide. Open data should have adequate quality in order to achieve the object of the public. However, there are open data's quality problems due to the lack of data quality management and standardization.

The purpose of this work is to present a spatial neutron kinetics computational scheme for the analysis of space-dependent transients like rod ejection accident of pressurized water reactors. In this work modified Borresen's 1.5 group coarse mesh scheme was formulated for the neutronic computation of the space-dependent transients and applied to the analysis of hypothetical rod ejection accident of KNU no. 1 PWR core at BOC, HZP. The computational accuracy of the modified Borresen's scheme is examined by comparing calculations for core power and control rod worths with startup core physics test results. Effects of such parameters as ejected rod worths and number of delayed neution group ell transient results as well as computational efficiency are also examined. OB this basis it is suggested that the modified Borresen's method is a useful scheme for the analysis of spatial neutron transients of PWR's.

This paper proposed a combining technique of feature vectors which improves the performance of radar target recognition. The proposed method obtains more information than monostatic or bistatic case by combining extracted feature vectors from two receivers. For verifying the performance of the proposed method, we calculated monostatic and bistatic RCS(BRCS) of three full-scale fighters by changing the receiver position. Then, the scattering centers are extracted using 1-D FFT-based CLEAN from the calculated RCS data. Scattering centers are used as feature vectors for neural network classifier. The results show that our method has the better performance than the monostatic or bistatic case.
