  • Effective hydraulic conductivity of a statistically anisotropic heterogeneous medium is obtained for steady two-dimensional flows employing stochastic analysis. Flow equations are solved up to second order and the effective conductivity is obtained in a semi-analytic form depending only on the spatial correlation function and the anisotropy ratio of the hydraulic conductivity field, hence becoming a true intrinsic property independent of the flow field. Results are obtained using a statistically anisotropic Gaussian correlation function where the anisotropy is defined as the ratio of integral scales normal and parallel to the mean flow direction. Second order results indicate that the effective conductivity of an anisotropic medium is greater than that of an isotropic one when the anisotropy ratio is less than one and vice versa. It is also found that the effective conductivity has upper and lower bounds of the arithmetic and the harmonic mean conductivities.

  • The characteristics of Prand시-Meyer expansion of supersonic flow with condensation along a wavy wall in a channel are investigated by means of experiments and numerical analyses. Experiments are carried out for the case of moist air flow in an intermittent indraft supersonic wind tunnel. The flow fields are visualized by a Schlieren system and the distributions of static pressure along the upper wavy wall are measured by a scanning valve system with pressure transducers. In numerical analyses, the distributions of streamlines, Mach lines, iso-pressure lines, and iso-mass fractions of liquid are obtained by the two-dimensional direct marching method of characteristics. The effects of stagnation temperature, absolute humidity, and attack angle of the upper wavy wall on the generation and the locations of generation and reflection of an oblique shock wave are clarified. Futhermore, it is confirmed that the wavy wall plays an important role in the generation of an oblique shock wave and that the effect of condensation on the flow fields is apparent.

  • In order to measure the oil-film pressure in sliding surface of machinery, we have developed a piezo-resistive type thin-film pressure sensor. To reduce the measurement error due to temperature and strain, the constituent of the pressure sensitive alloy was optimized and a new sensor shape was devised. In this study, we present the measurement results of the oil-film pressure distribution in engine connecting rod big-end bearing and piston pin- bosses with 3 different pin-boss shapes using the newly developed thin-film pressure sensor.

  • 지진이 발생하는 환경에서 철근콘크리트구조의 신뢰성을 수명주기비용에 근거하여 체계적으로 평가하는 방법을 제시하였다. 구조물의 기능성과 경제적인 효용성을 나타내기 위하여 각각 손상확률과 평균수명 주기비용의 개념을 사용하였다. 생애주기 동안 발생할 수 있는 지진에 의하여 구조물이 입게 될 손상을 보상하기 위하여 소요되는 평균손상비용을 평균수명주기비용의 주요 항목으로 고려하여 분석하였다. 구조물의 다양한 손상상태에서 손상비용을 나타내기 위해 요구되는 비용함수는 Park-Ang 손상지수의 중앙값을 독립변수로 하는 함수로 가정하였다. 지진에 의한 구조물의 손상해석은 UCI에서 개발된 SMART-DRAIN의 시뮬레이션기법을 사용하여 그 불확실성을 고려하였다. 제시된 방법을 현행 규준에 의하여 설계된 7층 사무실 건물에 적용하여 그 가능성을 살펴보았다.

  • There are three methods for analyzing flow and pressure distribution in looped water distribution networks (the loop method, the node method, the element method) taking into consideration hydraulic parameters chosen as unknown. For all these methods the non-linear system of equations can be solved by iterative procedures. The paper presents a different approach to this problem by using the method of variational formulations for hydraulic analysis of water distribution networks. This method has the advantage that it uses a specialized optimization algorithm which minimizes directly an objective multivariable function without constraints, implemented in a computer program. The paper compares developed method to the classic Hardy-Cross method. This shows the good performance of the new method.

  • In this paper, we propose a registration method of 3d facial scan data and CBCT data using voxelization and distance map. First, two data sets are initially aligned by exploiting the voxelization of 3D facial scan data and the information of the center of mass. Second, a skin surface is extracted from 3D CBCT data by segmenting air and skin regions. Third, the positional and rotational differences between two images are accurately aligned by performing the rigid registration for the distance minimization of two skin surfaces. Experimental results showed that proposed registration method correctly aligned 3D facial scan data and CBCT data for ten patients. Our registration method might give useful clinical information for the oral surgery planning and the diagnosis of the treatment effects after an oral surgery.

  • Principal component analysis(PCA) is a multivariate technique falling under the general title of factor analysis. The purpose of PCA is to Identify the dependence structure behind a multivariate stochastic observation In order to obtain a compact description of it. In engineering field PCA is utilized mainly (or data compression and restoration. In this paper we propose a new robust Hebbian algorithm for robust PCA. This algorithm is based on a hyperbolic tangent function due to Hampel ef al.(1989) which is known to be robust in Statistics. We do two experiments to investigate the performance of the new robust Hebbian learning algorithm for robust PCA.

  • In oder to predict the dispersion of a thermal discharge with strong turbulent and buoyant effects, the development of a numerical model using turbulence model and its application are significantly increased. In this study, a three-dimensional steady-state model for the surface discharge heated water into quiescent water body is developed. For the model closure of turbulent terms the four-equation turbulence model is used. For economic mumerical simulation, the elliptic governing equations are transformed to the partially parabolic equations. In general, the simulated results by the present model agree well with the experimental results by Pande and Rajratnam (1977). The model characteristics are presented in comparison with the predicted results from the two-eqauation turbulence model by McGuirk and Rodi (1979).
