In this paper, a new three-dimensional nodal diffusion code which is based on the AFEN methodology is described and tested. The method expands the homogeneous flux within a node in ter-ms of eighteen analytic basis functions satisfying the diffusion equation at any point of the node. And the nodal coupling equations are derived such that nodal balance, current continuity and leakage balance within an infinitesimally small box around the edge are satisfied. To verify its accuracy, the code was applied to the well-known static LMW benchmark problem and a small core benchmark problem that has the same material properties as the three-dimensional IAEA benchmark problem and compared with two other codes (QUANDRY, VENTURE). The results show that the code provides good accuracy both in the power distribution and in the effective multiplication factor.

A numerical calculation on the flame structure and soot particle distribution in a coannular laminar diffusion flame was performed. Flame analysis model utilized basically flame sheet concepts, Shvab-Zel'dovich assumption, and one step overall irreversible reaction. It was also considered the variation of thermodynamics and transport properties, and the stagnation enthalpy was used for solving temperature field. Radiation was taken into account, since it has been found to be important in determining the flame temperature in sooty flames. For soot particle analysis, we adopted the coagulation, suface condensation, and the oxidation model in addition to tesner's two-step formation model. Equations for primary soot particle excluding the agglomeration process were solved. Based on the results, the regions of soot generation, growth, and oxidation in the flame have been observed and radiation strongly influenced flame temperature and soot distribution.

The analytical diffusion model is first formulated and its characteristics are critically reviewed. The flood events during the 1986-1988 flood seasons i the IHP Pyungchang Representative Basin are routed by this model and are compared with those by the kinematic wave model. The results showed that the analytical diffusion model simulates the observed flood events much better than the analytical kinematic wave model. The present model is proven to be an excellent means of taking the backwater effect due to lateral inflow or down river stage variations into consideration in channel routing of flood flows. It also requires much less effort and computing time at a desired station compared to any other reliable flood routing methods.

방화선 구축 작업은 산불확산이 진행되고 있는 화선으로부터 확산진행방향의 연소물질을 제거하여 화염이 확산되지 않도록 하는 대표적인 간접진화 방법이다. 하지만 방화선 구축 폭에 대한 기준은 산불진화 경험을 통해 약 0.5~1.5m폭으로 작업하는 것으로 알려져 있고 열전달 수치해석 및 실험 등을 통해 아직 구명된 바 없다. 이에 본 연구에서는 소나무 낙엽층을 대상으로 풍속 0~5m/s, 경사 $0{\sim}50^{\circ}$의 조건에 대해 복사열전달 수치해석을 이용하여 방화선 구축 폭을 산정하였다. 그 결과, 복사열유속에 의한 낙엽의 발화가 발생하지 않는 거리는 각 조건별 평균화염높이에 대해서는 0.35~0.65m, 최대화염높이에 대해서는 0.75~1.05m로 산정되었다. 따라서 안전율을 고려한 적정 방화선 구축 폭은 최대화염높이를 적용한 1.05m가 적합할 것으로 판단되며 향후, 실험 및 현장사례조사를 통한 적정 방화선 구축 폭에 대한 비교분석 연구가 추가적으로 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The nonlinear humidity distribution occurs due to the moisture diffusion when a concrete is exposed to an ambient air. This nonlinear humidity distribution induces shrinkage cracks on surfaces of the concrete. Because shrinkage cracks largely affect the durability and serviceability of concrete structures, the moisture diffusion in concrete must be investigated. The purpose of this paper is to propose a model of the moisture diffusion coefficient that governs moisture diffusion within concrete structures. To propose the model, numerical analysis was performed with several experiments. Because the moisture diffusion coefficient is changed with aging, especially at early ages, the proposed model includes aging effect by terms of the porosity as well as the humidity of concrete.

One of the methods to transmit solute through solvent is diffusion. Various particles or molecules including several charged ions in the body diffuse from high density region to low density due to density difference or external electric field. This kind of mechanism is due to thermal motion of each solute molecules. These situations can be deployed using Fick's first and second laws that govern diffusion phenomena in the body. I analysis these diffusion status of material in the body using above mentioned Fick's laws and then implement them through illustration.

산불의 확산형태 중 지표화 확산을 방지하기 위해 대표적인 진화방법으로는 방화선을 구축하는 것이다. 지표화는 산림의 연료중 낙엽층, 잔가지 등 지표면의 연료층이 열분해되면서 확산되기 때문에 방화선 구축을 통해 연료층을 제거하면 지표화 확산을 저지할 수 있다. 하지만 방화선 구축 폭에 따라 산불확산 방지 효과가 크게 달라질 수 있으므로 적정한 방화선 구축 폭을 설정하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 적정 방화선 구축 폭을 살펴보기 위해 풍동시험장치를 이용하여 풍속 0, 1, 2, 3m/s조건에서 지표화 화염으로부터 이격 거리에 따른 온도측정과 함께 방화선 구축 폭에 따른 확산가능 여부를 평가하였다. 50cm 폭의 소나무 낙엽에 대한 풍속별 지표화 방화선 구축 실험결과, 풍속 3m/s에서 화염으로부터 소나무 낙엽의 착화온도인 $311^{\circ}C$에 도달하는 거리가 약 0.65m로 나타났고 풍속이 낮을수록 착화온도 도달거리가 줄어드는 것을 알 수 있다. 실제 0.6m 방화선 구축의 경우, 화염이 계속 확산되었고 0.65m 이상의 방화선 구축시에는 화염확산이 이루어지지 않았다. 따라서 향후, 수치해석을 이용한 열유속 평가 결과와 함께 본 연구의 실험결과와 비교평가 함으로써 지표화 산불확산 방지를 위한 적정 방화선 구축 폭 산정을 평가하고자 한다.

A numerical investigation to simulate the selective growth of silicon-germanium quantum-dots via local surface diffusivity enhancement is presented. A nonlinear equation for the waviness evolution of film surface is derived to consider the effects of spatially-varying diffusivity, influenced by a surface temperature profile. Results show that the morphology of the initially planar film shapes into an undulated surface upon perturbation, and a steady-state solution describes a fully grown quantum-dot. The present study points toward a fabrication technique that can obtain selectivity for self-assembly.

관로의 수리학적 홍수추적은 정확성을 기할 수 있다는 장점이 있으나 2차원 해석을 할 경우 광범위한 관망의 개별적인 계산이 요구되어 계산시간이나 수월성 측면에서 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 2차원 관망을 1차원으로 전환시키는 방법인 등가하천 개념을 도입하여 도시유역의 유출량 산정에 있어서 여러 지선들을 개별적으로 모의하지 않으면서도 실제 존재하는 지선들의 효과를 고려할 수 있는 방법을 개발하고자 하였다. 등가하천 개념의 관망 적용을 통해 등가관로의 수리기하조건을 유도하였으며 이를 이용하여 관망 간략화 홍수추적을 수행하였다. 등가관로 홍수 추적을 위해 Saint-Venant 방정식에서 유도된 비선형 확산파 방정식이 사용되었으며 이의 수치모의를 위해 양해법을 이용하였다. 본 연구에서는 등가하천 개념 적용을 통해 결정된 군자배수구역의 등가관로 수리매개변수인 파속 및 확산계수를 이용하여 확산파 방정식에 의해 홍수추적을 실시하였고, 그 결과를 SWMM에 의한 2차원 관망 해석결과와 비교하였다. 검토결과 등가관로를 통한 홍수추적결과가 실제 관망분포를 그대로 고려했을 경우를 잘 재현하는 것으로 나타나 등가하천개념의 도시유역 적용성을 확인할 수 있었다.

The diffusion characteristics of the high temperature and salinity water discharged in Chinhae Bay under BMP(Barge-Mounted Plants) desalination processes were simulated to access environmental impact. The 3-D baroclinic flow model is formulated by integrating the basic equations with respect to each control volume and by transforming them into a finite difference form using the space-staggered grid system. With a 3-D baroclinic flow model, the tide-induced and density-induced current was computed and confirmed by comparing with observed data. From the results of numerical experiment, it is expected that the maximum diffusion lengths of the high temperature and salinity which increase $0.6^{circ}C$ and 0.2 after discharging are 1 km and 3.5km, respectively. It may be expected that the discharge has an effect on surrounding area of discharge, but not an effect on whole area of Chinhae Bay.
