Long-span cable-stayed bridges exhibit some features which are more critical than typical long span bridges such as geometric and aerodynamic nonlinearities, higher probability of the presence of multiple vehicles on the bridge, and more significant influence of wind loads acting on the ultra high pylon and super long cables. A three-dimensional nonlinear fully-coupled analytical model is developed in this study to improve the dynamic performance prediction of long cable-stayed bridges under combined traffic and wind loads. The modified spectral representation method is introduced to simulate the fluctuating wind field of all the components of the whole bridge simultaneously with high accuracy and efficiency. Then, the aerostatic and aerodynamic wind forces acting on the whole bridge including the bridge deck, pylon, cables and even piers are all derived. The cellular automation method is applied to simulate the stochastic traffic flow which can reflect the real traffic properties on the long span bridge such as lane changing, acceleration, or deceleration. The dynamic interaction between vehicles and the bridge depends on both the geometrical and mechanical relationships between the wheels of vehicles and the contact points on the bridge deck. Nonlinear properties such as geometric nonlinearity and aerodynamic nonlinearity are fully considered. The equations of motion of the coupled wind-traffic-bridge system are derived and solved with a nonlinear separate iteration method which can considerably improve the calculation efficiency. A long cable-stayed bridge, Sutong Bridge across the Yangze River in China, is selected as a numerical example to demonstrate the dynamic interaction of the coupled system. The influences of the whole bridge wind field as well as the geometric and aerodynamic nonlinearities on the responses of the wind-traffic-bridge system are discussed.

We propose a scaled-down experimental model of vertical air-natural convection channels by applying the modified Ishii-Kataoka scaling method with the assistance of numerical analyses to the Reactor Vault Cooling System (RVCS) of the Proto-type Gen-IV Sodium-cooled fast reactor (PGSFR) being developed in Korea. Two major non-dimensional numbers (modified Richardson and Friction number) from the momentum equation and Stanton number from the energy balance equation were identified to design the scaled-down experimental model to assimilate thermal-hydraulic behaviors of the natural convective air-cooling channel of RVCS. The ratios of the design parameters in the PGSFR RVCS between the prototype and the scaled-down model were determined by setting Richardson and Stanton number to be unity. The friction number which cannot be determined by the Ishii-Kataoka method was estimated by numerical analyses using the MARS-KS system code. The numerical analyses showed that the friction number with the form loss coefficient of 2.0 in the scale-down model would result in an acceptable prediction of the thermal-hydraulic behavior in RVCS. We also performed experimental benchmarking using the scaled-down model with the MARS-KS simulations to verify the appropriateness of the scale-down model, which demonstrated that the temperature rises and the average air flow velocity measured in the scale-down model.

In the general vapor-compression refrigeration system, refrigeration lubricant circulates in refrigeration system with refrigerant. Knowledge of the amount of circulating lubricant is very important to exactly calculate capacity of the refrigeration system. An experimental study was conducted to estimate the oil concentration of a flowing $CO_2/Oil$ mixtures. POE and PAG oil are considered as test lubricants in this study. Performance tests were conducted under simulated liquid conditions for $CO_2/POE$ oil mixture in oil concentration of 0 to 10 weight-percent and $CO_2/PAG$ oil mixture in oil concentration of 0 to 6 weight-percent in the temperature ranges of $-5^{\circ}C\;to\;15^{\circ}C$. The results obtained indicate specific gravity of $CO_2/Oil$ mixture is increased as oil concentration is increased and as temperature of mixture is decreased. Oil concentration correlation of $CO_2/POE$ oil mixture and $CO_2/PAG$ oil mixture is suggested, based on the measurement of specific gravity and temperature. This correlation enable to predict the oil concentration without extraction of the mixture and can be applied for $CO_2/POE$ mixtures and $CO_2/PAG$ mixtures.

본 논문은 수리학적 현장 주입시험 기간 동안 고려될 필요가 있는 수리역학적 상호작용에 따른 균열암반매질의 수리학적 거동에 대한 수치적 연구이다. 이러한 주입시험은 굴착정 내에 설치된 개구간(open hole section)을 따라 높은 압력을 가진 유량을 주입하며, 이를 통해 굴착정을 가로지르는 균열로부터 유량을 측정하는 것이다. 시간에 따라 변화되는 유량측정결과는 수리역학적 상호작용에 대한 분석 및 예측을 위해 개발된 수치모형의 현장 적용성을 평가하기 위해 사용되었다. 유량측정결과 전도성이 있는 균열들은 상호의존적인 균열망을 형성하며, 이로 인해 균열망을 구성하는 개별적인 균열요소들은 독립적인 시스템으로서 적절하게 모형화 될 수 없음을 보여주었다. 또한 간극수압이 굴착정 주위에 작용하는 최소주응력을 초과할 때 새로운 유체유입영역이 발생되며, 이러한 최소주응력보다 훨씬 큰 간극수압은 굴착정 주위의 균열들에 의해 유지될 수 있다는 것을 보여주었다. 본 연구에서 이러한 특성들이 자연 상태의 균열망의 구성형태에 따라 어떻게 영향을 미치게 되는지 이산 균열망 모형을 통해 수치적으로 분석되었다.

본 논문에서는 대규모 재난이 발생할 경우 재난으로 인해 시설물에 가해지는 피해를 알아보고 그로 인해 발생 가능한 재난들을 매트릭스 형식으로 나타내었다. 대규모 재난으로 태풍을 선정하였으며 태풍으로 인해 발생 가능한 피해인 홍수피해를 주로 다뤘다. 홍수피해의 경우 주로 침수가 발생하게 되고 침수심과 유속에 따라 피해여부가 결정되게 되며 이를 저층시설물에 적용한 결과를 도출해 내었다. 또한 시설물 피해로 인한 재난 연계를 한눈에 알아보기 쉽도록 매트릭스 형식으로 재난 유형을 분류하는 방법을 적용시켜 결과를 도출시켰다. 본 논문에서 제시한 형식으로 지속적인 연구가 진행되었을 경우 재난 발생에 따른 추가적인 재난을 미리 알아보는데 도움이 될 것이다.

We focused on improvement in simulation of wind fields for the complex coastal area. Local Analysis and Prediction System(LAPS) was used as a data assimilation method to improve initial conditions. Case studies of different LAPS inputs were performed to compare improvement of wind fields. Five cases have been employed : I) non data assimilation, II) all available data, III) AWS, buoy, QuikSCAT, IV) AWS, buoy, wind profiler, V) AWS, buoy, AMEDAS. Data assimilation can supplement insufficiency of the mesoscale model which does not represent detailed terrain effect and small scale atmospheric flow fields. Result assimilated all available data showed a good agreement to the observations rather than other cases and estimated veil the local meteorological characteristics including sea breeze and up-slope winds. Result using wind profiler data was the next best thing. This implies that data assimilation with many high-resolution sounding data could contribute to the improvements of good initial condition in the complex coastal area. As a result, these indicated that effective data assimilation process and application of the selective LAPS inputs played an important role in simulating wind fields accurately in a complex area.

Non-Newtonian fluid mechanics takes charge of an important role in the oil industries. Especially in the oil well drilling process, the drilling fluid such as mud keeps the drill bit cool and clean during drilling, with suspending drill cuttings and lubricating a drill bit. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of fluid mud rheological properties to predict different characteristics of non-Newtonian fluid in the mud mixing tank on offshore drilling platforms. In this paper, ANSYS fluent package was used for the simulation to solve the hydrodynamic force and to evaluate mud mixing time. Prediction of the power consumption and the pumping effectiveness has been presented with different operating fluid models as Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid. The comparison between Newtonain mud model and non-Newtonian mud model is confirmed by the CFD simulation method of drilling mud mixing tank. The results present useful information for the design of the drilling mud mixing tanks and provide some guidance on the use of CFD tool for such non-Newtonian fluid flow.

본 연구에서는 RAE "A" 날개-축대칭 동체 형상을 이용하여 유동흐름 방향, Span 방향과 동체 둘레 방향(${\phi}$ 방향)에 따라 격자에 대한 수렴성 및 비행체의 압력 분포 변화를 수치적으로 연구하였다. 아음속 및 천음속 영역 조건에서 $k-{\omega}$ Wilcox-Durbin+ 난류 모델을 사용하여 2차 정확도의 수치적 해를 예측하는 유동해석을 수행하였다. 아음속 유동 조건에서는 해석결과가 실험결과와 매우 잘 일치하였으나, 충격파가 존재하는 천음속 유동에서는 약간의 차이가 발생하였다. Cubic spline을 사용하는 외삽 방법으로 격자 수렴성을 검토하였다. 외삽 방법을 통해 회전 방향의 격자 조밀도가 격자 수렴성에 가장 큰 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 격자 수렴성에 대한 검토 결과를 바탕으로 더 조밀한 격자를 생성하였다. 이를 통해 특히 RAE-A 형상의 축대칭 동체 표면에서 더 정확한 해석 결과를 얻을 수 있음을 보였다.

항공기 결빙 분야에서 표면 조도는 대류 열전달을 강화하고 국소 액적 부착률(Local Collection Efficiency)을 변화시킨다는 점에서 매우 중요한 요소로 받아들여지고 있다. 이에 따라 최근 결빙실험 분야에서는 표면 조도 형성과정 데이터를 획득하기 위한 노력이 진행되고 있다. 한편, 이러한 실험은 데이터 측정의 어려움으로 인해 주로 저속 결빙조건에서 수행되고 있다. 그러나 저속조건이 표면 조도의 최종 형상에 미치는 영향은 아직 거의 알려진 바가 없다. 본 연구는 저속 결빙조건에서 실험을 수행하고, 획득한 표면 조도 데이터와 결빙조건과의 연관성을 분석하였다. 분석 방법으로는 기존 고속조건 실험에 활용되는 지배 파라미터를 이용하였으며, 표면 조도의 경향성을 기존 고속 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 표면 조도 크기는 기존에 알려진 경향성과 잘 일치했지만, smooth zone 폭은 차이를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, the stress-strain relations of steels have been calculated as a function of microstructural morphologies of each phase by use of FEM program(i.e. ABAQUS). The mechanical behavior of low carbon steels is affected by the microstructural factors such as yield ratio, volume fraction, shape and distribution of each phase and so on. The effects of shape, volume fraction and yield ratio of each phase on the mechanical behavior were analyzed by using unit cell and whole specimen size models. Results obtained are summarized as follows. As the yield ratio of hard phase to that of soft phase and volume fraction of hard phase were increased, stress level of flow curves were increased. It was found that in whole specimen size model, as the particle size was decreased, higher stress level was shown. Lastly the relationship between microstructure and tensile properties was examined by using the steels with various microstructural morphologies.
