The structure of the variable liquid column oscillator(VLCO) is analogous to that of the tuned liquide column damper used to suppress oscillatory motion in large structures like tall buildings and cargo ships. VLCO is the technology to absorb high potential energy made by process of accelerated motions to occur the effect of an air spring by installation of inner air chamber. So, the application of VLCO can obtain to improve efficiency of energy than wave energy converters made in Pelamis Company. In this research, the experiments were carried out for the motion characteristics of simple floating body by varying the amount of internal fluid. The experimental results were compared with the calculated results.

Viscous flow fields of side-by-side arranged two-dimensional floating bodies are numerically simulated by a Navier-Stokes equation solver. Two identical bodies with a narrow gap are forced to heave and sway motions. Square and rounded bilge hull forms are compared to find out the effects of vortex shedding on damping force. Wave height, force RAOs, added mass and damping coefficients including non-diagonal cross coefficients are calculated and a similarity between the wave height and force RAOs is discussed. CFD which can take into account of viscous damping and vortex shedding shows better results than linear potential theory.

The aim of this study is to analyze the hydrodynamic properties of a 2D floating body with moon pool using a 2D fully nonlinear Numerical Wave Tank(NWT). This NWT was developed based on the Boundary Element Method(BEM) with potential theory and fully nonlinear free surface boundary conditions. Free surface elevations in the moon pool were calculated in the time domain for various frequencies of forced body motions. The added-mass and damping coefficients of the heaving body were also obtained. The present numerical results were compared with the analytic and experimental results and their accuracy was verified.

With increasing size of transformer-based neural networks, a light-weight algorithm and efficient AI accelerator has been developed to train these huge networks in practical design time. In this article, we present a survey of state-of-the-art research on the low-precision computational algorithms especially for floating-point formats and their hardware accelerator. We describe the trends by focusing on the work of two leading research groups-IBM and Seoul National University-which have deep knowledge in both AI algorithm and hardware architecture. For the low-precision algorithm, we summarize two efficient floating-point formats (hybrid FP8 and radix-4 FP4) with accuracy-preserving algorithms for training on the main research stream. Moreover, we describe the AI processor architecture supporting the low-bit mixed precision computing unit including the integer engine.

부유체 및 부유식 교량과 같은 부유식 구조물이 파랑하중에 대하여 나타내는 동적거동을 주파수영역에서 구하는 연구를 수행하였다. 먼저, 부분적으로 유체에 잠겨 파랑하중의 작용을 받는 부유체에 대하여, 이의 강체운동과 관련된 동유체력계수인 부가질량, 감쇠 및 파강제력를 선형포텐셜이론과 경계요소법을 이용하여 주파수 영역에서 산정한다 다음으로,부유식 교량과 같이 앞에서 구한 부유체로 지지되며 유한요소를 이용하여 모델링 되는 부유식 구조물에 대하여, o)의 동적거동에 관한 운동방정식을 수립한다. 동유체력계수들이 주파수 의존적 성질을 가지므로 해석은 주파수영역에서 수행한다. 적용 예제로서 반구와 같은 부유체를 이용하여 해석결과를 문헌과 비교 검증한 후,부유식 교량을 지지하는 폰툰형 부유체에 대한 동유체력계수들을 구하고, 이를 이용하여 설계 파랑하중을 받는 부유식 교량의 동적 거동해석을 수행한다. 해석 예제를 주파수영역에서 해석한 결과 입사파스펙트림의 피크 주파수와 교량의 고유진동수가 가까워 응답이 증폭될 소지가 있었으나 주파수 의존적인 파강제력의 피크가 벗어난 영향으로 응답이 증폭되지 않음을 알 수 있다.

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the motions and mooring characteristics of a floating vertical axis wind turbine system. Based on a comparison of regular wave experiment results, the motions of structures with different types of mooring are almost the same. Based on the tension response results of a regular wave experiment with a catenary mooring system, the mooring lines in front of the structure have a larger tension effect than the back of the structure by the drifted offset of the structure. The dynamic response spectrum of the structure in the irregular wave experiments showed no significant differences in response to differences in the mooring system. As a result of the comparison of the tension response spectra, the mooring lines have a larger value with a drifted offset for the structure, as shown in the previous regular wave experiment. The results of the dynamic response of the structure under irregular wave and wind conditions showed that the heave motion response is influenced by the coupled effect with the mooring lines of the surge and pitch motion due to the drifted offset and steady heeling. In addition, the mooring lines in front of the structure have a very large tension force compared to the mooring lines in back of the structure as a result of the drifted offset of the structure.

최근, PDA를 이용한 모바일 비젼 시스템에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 대부분의 PDA에서 사용하는 CPU는 실수 연산 구성요소(floating-computation component)가 없는 정수(integer)형 CPU를 사용하므로, 실수 연산이 많은 영상 처리 및 비젼 시스템에서는 많은 시간이 소요되는 단점이 있다 본 논문에서는 이를 해결하기 위해 무선 랜(LAN)으로 연결된 Client(PDA)/server(PC)구조론 이용한 시스템을 제안하며, 연속 영상에서 Client(PDA)와 Server(PC) 각각의 CPU를 이용하여 파이프라이닝 형식으로 시스템을 구축함으로써 수행 시간을 단축한다. Client(PDA)는 에지 밀도(edge density)론 이용하여 대략적인 문자 영역을 추출하며, Server(PC)는 Client(PDA)에서 대략적으로 검출된 견과를 바탕으로 정밀한 문자 영역을 추출하기 위해, MLP(multi-layer perceptron) 기반의 텍스춰 분류 방법과 연결 성분(connected component: CC) 기반의 필터링 방법을 이용한다. 본 실험에서 제안한 방법은 MLP와 CC를 이용함으로써 효과적인 문자 추출 결과를 보였으며, 파이프라이닝 형식의 Client(PDA)/server(PC)구조를 이용함으로써 빠른 수행 시간을 보였다.

Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT) installed in the deep sea regions where stable and strong wind flows are abundant would have significantly improved energy production capacity. When designing FOWT, it is essential to understand the stability and motion performance of the floater. Water tank model tests are required to evaluate these aspects of performance. This paper describes a model test and numerical simulation for a 750-kW semi-submersible platform wind turbine model-II. In the previous model test, the 750-kW FOWT model-I suffered slamming phenomena from extreme wave conditions. Because of that, the platform freeboard of model-II was increased to mitigate the slamming load on the platform deck structure in extreme conditions. Also, the model-I pitch Response Amplitude Operators (RAO) of simulation had strong responses to the natural frequency region. Thus, the hub height of model-II was decreased to reduce the pitch resonance responses from the low-frequency response of the system. Like the model-I, 750-kW FOWT model-II was built with a 1/40 scale ratio. Furthermore, the experiments to evaluate the performance characteristics of the model-II wind turbine were executed at the same location and in the same environment conditions as were those of model-I. These tests included a free decay test, and tests of regular and irregular wave conditions. Both the experimental and simulation conditions considered the blade rotating effect due to the wind. The results of the model tests were compared with the numerical simulations of the FOWT using FAST (Fatigue, Aerodynamics, Structures, and Turbulence) code from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
