  • A numerical model for harbour oscillation is presented by use of Galerkin finite element method. The governing equation is used by the modified mild slope equation derived from Chen (1986) in which bottom friction is incorporated. Since the existing absorbing boundary condition. however. is shown to be incorrect correct boundary condition and forcing term due to an incident plane wave are rederived. Computation results for a rectangular harbour are shown in comparison with both laboratory data and existing numerical results. After the values of friction factor (f) and reflection coefficient (K$_{r}$) are discussed, the set (K$_{r}$=0, 94, f=0) is found to be best fitted to the laboratory data of the rectangular harbour.

  • In many of microdevices a part of a microbeam is covered by a piezoelectric layer. Depend on the application a DC or AC voltage is applied between upper and lower side of the piezoelectric layer. A common method in many of previous works for evaluating the response of these structures is discretizing by Galerkin method. In these works often single mode shape of a uniform microbeam i.e. the microbeam without piezoelectric layer has been used as comparison function, and so the convergence of the solution has not been verified. In this paper the Galerkin method is used for discretization, and a comprehensive analysis on the convergence of solution of equation that is discretized using this comparison function is studied for both clamped-clamped and clamped-free microbeams. The static and dynamic solution resulted from Galerkin method is compared to the modal expansion solution. In addition the static solution is compared to an exact solution. It is denoted that the required numbers of uniform microbeam mode shapes for convergence of static solution due to DC voltage depends on the position and thickness of deposited piezoelectric layer. It is shown that when the clamped-clamped microbeam is coated symmetrically by piezoelectric layer, then the convergence for static solution may be obtained using only first mode. This result is valid for clamped-free case when it is covered by piezoelectric layer from left clamped side to the right. It is shown that when voltage is AC then the number of required uniform microbeam shape mode for convergence is much more than the number of required mode in modal expansion due to the dynamic effect of piezoelectric layer. This difference increases by increasing the piezoelectric thickness, the closeness of the excitation frequency to natural frequency and decreasing the damping coefficient. This condition is often indefeasible in microresonator system. It is concluded that discreitizing the equation of motion using one mode shape of uniform microbeam as comparison function in many of previous works causes considerable errors.

  • 본 연구에서는 요소를 사용하지 않고 절점들만을 이용하여 해석이 가능한 새로운 수치해석기법인 EFG(Element-Free Galerkin)법을 사용하여 임의의 균열의 성장과정을 해석할 수 있는 효율적인 알고리즘을 개발하고, 이를 바탕으로 균열의 성장방향과 경로를 정확히 추정하여 일련의 균열진전해석을 수행할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 균열해석에 있어서는 균열선단의 특이성과 균열면의 분연속성을 수치적으로 반영할 수 있는 기법을 도입하여 균열을 모형화하였으며, 선형탄성파괴역학이론에 근거하여 균열해석과정을 정식화하였다. 또한, EFG 형상함수가 kronecker delta 조건을 만족시키지 못함으로써 발생하는 필수경계조건의 처리문제를 penalty법을 이용하여 해결하였다. 개발된 균열진전해석 알고리즘을 정지상태와 성장하는 상태에 있는 모드 Ⅰ, 모드 Ⅱ 및 혼합모드상태의 대표적인 균열문제들에 적용하여 응력확대계수와 균열성장방향 및 균열의 성장경로를 추정하고 이를 이론적·실험적 결과들과 비교함으로써 그 정확성과 효율성을 검증하였다.

  • In this study, the fracture phenomena of optical disks are discussed by theoretical and experimental approaches and then some recommendations are presented to prevent the fracture. Linear equations of motion are discretized by using the Galerkin approximation. From the discretized equations, the dynamic responses are computed by the generalized- time integration method. As a fracture criterion for optical disks, the critical crack length is presented. From experimental methods, the fracture procedure is analyzed. The fracture occurs when disks have crack on the inner radius of the disks. Since the crack growth and the fracture result from the stress concentration on the tip of the crack, a measure should be taken to overcome the stress concentration. This problem can be resolved by the structural modification of a disk. This study proposes 3 types of improved optical disks.

  • In this paper, we propose a decoupled local discontinuous Galerkin method for solving the Klein-Gordon-Schrödinger (KGS) equations. The KGS equations is a model of the Yukawa interaction of complex scalar nucleons and real scalar mesons. The advantage of our scheme is that the computation of the nucleon and meson field is fully decoupled, so that it is especially suitable for parallel computing. We present the conservation property of our fully discrete scheme, including the energy and Hamiltonian conservation, and establish the optimal error estimate.

  • The equations of motion for composite plates incorporating magneto-thermo-elastic effects have been derived via Hamilton's principle. In order to get the insight into the implications of a number of geometrical and physical features of the system, the vibrational responses of finite composite rectangular plates immersed in a transversal magnetic field are investigated by applying the extended Galerkin method. The vibration response characteristics of a composite plate are exploited in connection with the magnetic field intensity, thermal load, and electric conductivity of fibrous composite materials. Some pertinent conclusions, which highlight the various effects induced by the magneto-thermo-elastic couplings, are outlined.

  • We studied the influences of open cracks in free vibrating beam with rectangular section using a numerical model. The crack was assumed to be single and always open during the free vibration and equivalent bending stiffness of a cracked beam was calculated based on the strain energy balance. By Galerkin's method, the frequencies of cantilever beam could be obtained with respect to various crack depths and locations. Also, the experiments on the cracked beams were carried out to find natural frequencies. The cracks were initiated at five locations and the crack depths were increased by five steps at each location. The experimental results were compared with the numerical results and the comparison results were discussed.

  • In this study, the adaptive analysis procedure of crack propagation based on the element-free Galerkin(EFG) method is presented. The adaptivity analysis in quasi-static crack propagation is achieved by adding and/or removing the node along the background integration cell that are refined or recovered according to the estimated error. These errors are obtained basically by calculating the difference between the values of the projected stresses and original EFG stresses. To evaluate the performance of proposed adaptive procedure, the crack propagation behavior is investigated for several examples. The results of these examples show the efficiency and accuracy of proposed scheme in crack propagation analysis.
