Soft magnetic composites (SMCs) are especially suitable for the construction of low-cost, high-performance motors with 3-D magnetic fields. The main advantages of SMCs is that the iron particles are insulated by the surface coating and adhesive used for composite bonding, the eddy-current loss is much lower than that in laminated steels, especially at higher frequencies, and the hysteresis loss becomes the dominant component of core losses. These properties enable machines to operate at higher frequencies, resulting in reduced machine size and weight. In this paper, 3-D topologies are proposed that enable the application of SMCs to effectively reduce losses in high-speed permanent magnet (PM) motors. In addition, the electromagnetic field characteristics of the motor topologies are evaluated and compared using a non-linear finite element method (FEM) based on 3-D numerical analysis, and the feasibility of the motor designs is validated.

지표하 다공성매체에서 비정상상태의 유동을 해석하기 위한 종래의 수치적 모형들은 초기 건조한 토양으로의 강우로 인한 침투와 같은 한계적인 유입경계조건인 경우에 국지적 유동영역으로 인해 수치적 진동 및 불안정성을 초래한다. 이러한 경우 주로 공간적으로 세분된 격자와 작은 계산시간 간격을 요구하는데 이는 계산의 효율성을 떨어뜨린다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유입 경계조건을 포함하는 비정상 상태의 지표하 유동해석을 위해 입자추적 알고리즘을 적용하여 불연속영역에서의 수치적 불안정성을 제거하고자 하였다. 즉, 수치적 안정성이 개선된 혼합 LE 유한요소기법을 제시하였다. 제시된 모형의 수치적 검증을 위해 비정상 균일 유동장과 불균일 유동장의 가상예제에 적용한 결과 해석해와 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었고 이를 토대로 함양 및 양수에 대한 3차원 가상유역 모의에 적용되었다. 본 연구에서 제시한 입자추적 알고리즘은 포화 및 불포화 다공성 매체의 유동을 보다 실질적으로 모의할 수 있으며 계산의 정확성 및 안정성에 크게 기여할 것으로 판단되었다.

This article deals with implementation of a high-order finite difference scheme for numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on curvilinear grids. The numerical scheme is based on pseudo-compressibility approach. A fifth-order upwind compact scheme is used to approximate the inviscid fluxes while the discretization of metric and viscous terms is accomplished using sixth-order central compact scheme. An implicit Euler method is used for discretization of the pseudo-time derivative to obtain the steady-state solution. The resulting block tridiagonal matrix system is solved by approximate factorization based alternating direction implicit scheme (AF-ADI) which consists of an alternate sweep in each direction for every pseudo-time step. The convergence and efficiency of the method are evaluated by solving some 2D benchmark problems. Finally, computed results are compared with numerical results in the literature and a good agreement is observed.

The paper presents a numerical approach to study of fluid flow characteristics and to predict performance of wind turbines. The numerical model is based on Finite-volume method (FVM) discretization of unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) equations. The movement of turbine blades is modeled using moving mesh technique. The turbulence is modeled using commonly used turbulence models: Renormalization Group (RNG) k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and the standard k-${\varepsilon}$ and k-${\omega}$ turbulence models. The model is validated with the experimental data over a large range of tip-speed to wind ratio (TSR) and blade pitch angles. In order to demonstrate the use of numerical method as a tool for designing wind turbines, two dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) simulations are carried out to study the flow through a small scale Darrieus type H-rotor Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT). The flows predictions are used to determine the performance of the turbine. The turbine consists of 3-symmetrical NACA0022 blades. A number of simulations are performed for a range of approaching angles and wind speeds. This numerical study highlights the concerns with the self-starting capabilities of the present VAWT turbine. However results also indicate that self-starting capabilities of the turbine can be increased when the mounted angle of attack of the blades is increased. The 2-D simulations using the presented model can successfully be used at preliminary stage of turbine design to compare performance of the turbine for different design and operating parameters, whereas 3-D studies are preferred for the final design.

PURPOSES : To solve problems in current compaction control DCPT(Dynamic Cone Penetrometer Test), highly correlated with various testing methods, simple, and economic is being applied. However, it、s hard to utilize DCPT results due to the few numerical analyses for DCPT have been performed and the lack of data accumulation. Therefore, this study tried to verify the validation of numerical modeling for DCPT by comparing and analyzing the results of numerical analyses with field tests. METHODS: The ground elastic modulus and PR(Penetration Rate) value were estimated by using PFC(Particle Flow Code) 3D program based on the discrete element method. Those values were compared and analyzed with the result of field tests. Also, back analysis was conducted to describe ground elastic modulus of field tests. RESULTS : Relative errors of PR value between the numerical analyses and field tests were calculated to be comparatively low. Also, the relationship between elastic modulus and PR value turned out to be similar. CONCLUSIONS : Numerical modeling of DCPT is considered to be suitable for describing field tests by carrying out numerical analysis using PFC 3D program.

공사중 터널은 막장부의 종방향 및 횡방향 아치거동에 의하여 주변 지반은 3차원적 변형거동을 보이나, 터널 안정성 해석에는 전산효율 등의 이유로 2차원 수치해석법이 일반적으로 적용되고 있다. 하중분배율은 터널의 굴진효과를 고려하기 위하여 2차원 해석에 도입된 것으로 지반변위, 숏크 리트 및 록볼트와 같은 1차 지보재의 하중 등과 같은 해석결과에 큰 영향을 미친다. 또한, 3차원 해석을 이용한 기존의 연구에 의하면, 지반의 변형특성, 터널크기, 굴진장 등이 하중분배율에 주요한 영향을 미친다는 사실이 입증되었다. 그러나, 설계조건에 대한 하중분배율의 정량적 산정법의 부재 로 인하여 실제 해석시에는 설계조건을 무시한 하중분배율이 적용되고 있는 실정이다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 기존 연구(정 대열, 1993)에서 제시한 72개의 3차원 해석결과에 대한 회귀분석을 통하여 하중분배율을 정량적으로 산정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 또한. ring-cut공법은 막장의 자립성 이 매우 불량한 조건에 적용되는 공법임에도 불구하고 기존의 2차원 해석 법으로는 막장코아의 진 지효과를 고려하지 못하는 문제점이 있었다. 따라서, 2차원 및 3차원 수치해석을 통하여 ring-cut공 법에 대한 기존 해석법의 문제점을 검토하였으며 본 공법에 대한 하중분배율의 보정치를 제시하였 다.

Comparisons are made with the published experimental and computational results, giving a good agreement. A method of predicting the defrosting contours on the wind shield is also proposed in the present study, which enables design modifications in design stages.

A three-dimensional (3-D) method of analysis is presented for determining the free vibration frequencies and mode shapes of thick, complete (not truncated) conical shells of revolution, Unlike conventional shell theories, which are mathematically two-dimensional (2-D). the present method is based upon the 3-D dynamic equations of elasticity. Displacement components $u_{r},\;u_{z},\;and\;u_{\theta}$ in the radial, axial, and circumferential directions, respectively, are taken to be sinusoidal in time, periodic in , and algebraic polynomials in the r and z directions. Potential (strain) and kinetic energies of the conical shells are formulated, the Ritz method is used to solve the eigenvalue problem, thus yielding upper bound values of the frequencies by minimizing the frequencies. As the degree of the polynomials is increased, frequencies converge to the exact values. Convergence to four-digit exactitude is demonstrated for the first five frequencies of theconical shells. Novel numerical results are presented for thick, complete conical shells of revolution based upon the 3-D theory. Comparisons are also made between the frequencies from the present 3-D Ritz method and a 2-D thin shell theory.

The radiation potential of a ship advancing in waves is studied using the 3D time-domain forward-speed free-surface Green function and the Green integral equation. Numerical solutions are obtained by making use of the 2nd order BEM(Boundary Element Method) which make it possible to take account of the line integral along the waterline in a rigorous manner. The 6 degree of freedom motion memory functions of a hemisphere and the Wigley seakeeping model obtained by direct integration of the time-domain 3D potentials over the wetted surface are presented for various Froude numbers.

In this study, the three-dimensional blood flow within the sac of KTAH(Korean artificial heart) is simulated using fluid-structure interaction model. The numerical method employed in this study is the finite element commercial package ADINA. The thrombus formation is one of the most critical problems in KTAH. High fluid shear stress or stagnated flow are believed to be the main causes of these disastrous phenomenon. We solved the fluid-structure interaction between the 3D blood flow in the sac and the surrounding sac material. The sac material is assumed as linear elastic material and the blood as incompressible viscous fluid. Numerical solutions show that high shear stress region and stagnated flow are found near the upper part of the sac and near the comer of the outlet during diastole stage.
