For the systematic study on the resistance characteristics of the planing hull, the experimental studies on the correlation between geometrical characteristics of the subject hull forms and their hydrodynamic characteristics are carried out. This study is the first stage to develop the advanced planing hull type fishing boat and involves the followings; -Resistance characteristics for typical four different section types, -Resistance characteristics for different length-beam ratio

In recent years, a number of successful nesting approaches have been developed by using the various heuristic algorithms, and due to their application potential several commercial CAD/CAM packages include a nesting module for solving the layout problem. Since a large portion of the complexity of the part nesting problem results from the overlapping computation, the geometric representation is one of the most important factors to reduce the complexity of the problem. The proposed part representation method can easily handle parts and raw materials with widely varying geometrical shape by using the redesigning modules. This considerably reduces the amount of processed data and consequently the run time of the computer. The aim of this research is to develop parametric macro for two-dimensional layout on the Auto-CAD system. Therefore, this research can be called "pre-nesting".

This paper deals with the problem of generating a uniform tetrahedral mesh which fills a 3-D space with the tetrahedra which are close to the equilateral tetrahedra as possible. This problem is particularly interesting in finite element modeling where a fat triangulation minimizes the error of an analysis. Fat triangulation is defined as a scheme for generating an equilateral triangulation as possible in a given dimension. In finite element modeling, there are many algorithms for generating a mesh in 2-D and 3-D. One of the difficulties in generating a mesh in 3-D is that a 3-D object can not be filled with uniform equilateral tetrahedra only regardless of the shape of the boundary. Fat triangulation in 3-D has been proved to be the one which fills a 3-D space with the tetrahedra which are close to the equilateral as possible. Topological and geometrical properties of the fat triangulation and its application to meshing algorithm are investigated.

Three-dimensional turbulent flows of a distribution manifold are studied by a turbulence model. To investigate the geometrical effects of the manifold, the length and area of exit port are changed. From the results, flow structures related to the outflow uniformity are examined and the deparure angles are obtained. The exit configuration depending on the departure angle has advantages to the outflow uniformity. That is, the decreased exit area in the streamwise direction improves the uniformity of exit flow. For the uniform effusion, the change of exit port by departure angle is more effective them the change of exit area.

The aim of this paper is to increase the performance of hysteresis compensation for Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators by using inverse Preisach model in closed-loop control system. This is used to reduce hysteresis effects and improve accuracy for the displacement of SMA actuators. Firstly, hysteresis is identified by numerical Preisach model implementation. The geometrical interpretation from first order transition curves is used for hysteresis modeling. Secondly, the inverse Preisach model is formulated and incorporated in closed-loop PID control system in order to obtain desired current-to-displacement relationship with hysteresis reducing. The experimental results for hysteresis compensation by using this method are also shown in this paper.

Recently, a new periodic cellular metal(PCM) named as Wire wove Bulk Kagome(WBK) was introduced. Based on the shape of tetrahedra composing a WBK, WBKs are classified into two types, namely, concave and convex type. They are easily differentiated by changing the assembling sequence. The effect of geometrical parameters such as the wire diameter, strut length and number of layers on the compressive behavior of concave type WBK has already been investigated. In this work, the similar works were performed with the convex type WBKs. It was shown that the compressive strength of the convex type WBK was quite similar to that of the concave type. The compressive strengths of convex type specimens also depend on the slenderness ratio, but a little different from those of concave type specimens in the detailed behavior. And densification occurs earlier than the concave type WBK.

The curved structures in space, such as multi-level inter-changes, ramped structures, and circular curved structures etc., are modelled as helically curved members with constant helix angle in this study. Equilibrium equations are derived, considering the geometrical properties and initial curvatures of helix. Modal equations of the simply supported helically curved members which can calculate the normalized natural frequencies are derived from these equations by assuming the modal shape function. These equations are used to calculate the normalized natural frequencies of the simply supported helically curved members and verify the distribution of the natural frequencies of them.

The basic systems of spatial structures such as shells, membranes, cable-nets and tensegrity structures have been developed to create the large spaces without column. But there are some difficulties concerning structural stability, surface formation and construction method. Tensegrity systems are flexible structures which are reticulated spatial structures composed of compressive members and cables. The rigidification of tensegrity systems is related to selfstress states which can be achieved only when geometrical and mechanical requirements are simultaneously satisfied. In this paper, the force density method allowing form-finding for tensegrity systems is presented. And various modules of unit-structures are investigated and discussed using the force density method. Also, a model of double-layered single curvature arch with quadruplex using supplementary cable is presented.

The heat exchange part in a modern multi-type air-conditioning system employs multiple-pass heat exchangers. The heat-transfer performance of an each pass in such an exchanger depends strongly on the length of the two-phase region and the mass flow of the refrigerant. The total length and diameters of the pipes, the exit conditions, and the arrangement of each pass as well as the geometrical shape of the distributor at the branching sections are considered to be major factors affecting the heat-transfer performance. The refrigerant commonly used in these systems is HCFC-22. The two objectives of this paper are to investigate the characteristics of the refrigerant flow rate and the superheat in the evaporator of a multi-type air-conditioning system for a single or simultaneous operating conditions and to control the superheat and the refrigerant flow rate of the evaporator.
