  • This paper investigates the mechanical behavior of full-scale offshore fish cages under hydrodynamic loads. To simulate different cases, different materials were used in the fish cage and analyzed under different flow velocities. The cage system is studied in two parts: net cage and floating collar. Analyses were performed with the ANSYS Workbench program, which allows the Finite Element Method (FEM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method to be used together. Firstly, the fish cage was designed, and adjusted for FSI: Fluid (Fluent) analysis. Secondly, mesh structures were created, and hydrodynamic loads acting on the cage elements were calculated. Finally, the hydrodynamic loads were transferred to the mechanical model and applied as a pressure on the geometry. In this study, the equivalent (von Mises) stress, equivalent strain, and total deformation values of cage elements under hydrodynamic loads were investigated. The data obtained from the analyses were presented as figures and tables. As a result, it has been shown that it is appropriate to use all the materials examined for the net cage and the floating collar.

  • The glymphatic system hypothesis is a concept describing the clearance of waste products from the brain. The term "glymphatic system" combines the glial and lymphatic systems and is typically described as follows. The perivascular space functions as a conduit that drains cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) into the brain parenchyma. CSF guided to the perivascular space around the arteries enters the interstitium of brain tissue via aquaporin-4 water channels to clear waste proteins into the perivascular space around the veins before being drained from the brain. In this review, we introduce the glymphatic system hypothesis and its association with fluid dynamics, sleep, and disease. We also discuss imaging methods to evaluate the glymphatic system.

  • An analysis of wind environments using computational fluid dynamics and an evaluation of wind resources using measurement data obtained from meteorological observation sites at Homi-Cape, Pohang have been carrid out for siting a wind farm. It was shown that a numerical simulation using computational fluid dynamics would provide reliable wind resource map in complex terrain with land-sea breeze condition. As a result of this investigation, Homi-Cape wind farm with 11.25 ㎿ capacity has been designed for maximum power generation and 25.7 GWh electricity production is predicted.

  • We have investigated the inter-relationship between the ink-jet printability and the physical fluid properties by monitoring the droplet formation dynamics. Printability of the fluids was judged based on the inverse of Ohnesorge number ($Z^{-1}$) that relates to the viscosity, surface tension, and density of the fluid.

  • Brownian-dynamics simulation on highly charged colloidal suspensions is performed by employing Tokuyama effective force recently proposed. The radial distribution function suggests that there exist three novel phases, a gas phase, a liquid droplet phase, and a face-centered cubic (FCC) crystal droplet phase, depending on the minimum values of that potential. The dynamics of droplet growth is also investigated both in liquid droplet phase and in crystal droplet phase. Thus, different types of characteristic growth stages are found.

  • The primary objective of this work is to develop methodologies for virtual model basin and to demonstrate the capabilities for generic multi-hull ship geometry. A computational fluid dynamics approach is used to simulate various model basin tests for steady resistance, maneuvering and seakeeping. For a catamaran hull configuration, the methodologies are used for solving these problems and the results are discussed. Computational results are compared with the results of a benchmarked potential flow theory method for calm water resistance.

  • This paper describes the analysis, design, and silicon-fabrication of a fluidic proportional amplifier, which is the most important element of fluidic logic circuits. First, FEM(finite element method) analyses were performed, using the Fluent computational fluid dynamics program, and design geometries were optimized. Then, a $40\;{\mu}m$-deep amplifier was fabricated in silicon using anisotropic dry etching.

  • Dynamics of plasma sheath was analyzed using simple ion fluid model with poison equation. Incident ion current, energy, potential distribution and space charge density profile were calculated as a function of time. The effects of initial floating sheath on the evolution of biased sheath were compared with ideal matrix sheath. The effects of finite rising time of pulse bias voltage on the ion current and energy was studied. The influence of surface charging on the evolution of sheath was also investigated
