  • For the last 14 years, space-borne satellite SAR system such as RADARSAT-1, ERS-2, and ENVISAT ASAR have provided a continuous observation over the ocean. However, the data acquired from those systems were limited to C-band frequency until the advent of the first spacebome German X-band SAR system TerraSAR-X in 2007. Korea is also planning to launch the nation's first X-band SAR satellite (KOMPSAT-5) in 2010. It is timely and necessary to develop X-band models for estimating geophysical parameters from these X-band SAR systems. In this study, X-band wind retrieval model was investigated and developed based on numerical ocean scattering model (radar backscattering model and hydrodynamic interaction model). Although these models have not yet been tested and validated for broad ranges of wind conditions, the estimated wind speeds from TerraSAR-X data show generally good agreement with in-situ measurements.

  • A gas giant formed in a massive protoplanetary disk via gravitational instability migrates inward due to its gravitational interaction with the disk. Planet migration occurs in various ways depending on the disk structure and internal processes, but previous studies only considered quantitative radiative feedback resulting from mass accretion onto the planet. Allowing for accretion feedback, we perform three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations with GIZMO to investigate orbital evolution of giant planets in a protoplanetary subject to -cooling. This work shows a planet gains mass due to accretion and gradually opens a gap as it moves inward. The migration in the end halts when the planet clears the gas around its orbit. A more massive planet grows its mass faster and migrates more rapidly, stalling at an orbit farther away from the protostar. Models with a cold disk readily construct a circumplanetary disk and result in high mass growth of the planet. Accretion feedback, in general, reduces the rate of the planet growth and delays migration. We discuss our results with GIZMO in comparison with the previous results with different codes.

  • The wave interaction with flexible membrane such as PVC and fabrics is studied to prove its applicability to portable breakwaters. To obtain the wave exciting force acting on flexible membrane, eigen-function expansion method is employed. The effect of flexible is involved in body boundary condition in which x-directional displacement of membrane is obtained by solving the linear membrane equation. Displacement of membrane is assumed to be small compared to wavelength, therefore the tensile force of membrane remains constant. As the numerical examples, transmission and reflection coefficients according to the change of tensile forces are investigated. The hydrodynamic force on membrane, the dynamic tension in the mooring lines and the vertical displacement profile of membrane are also calculated. It is suggested that the flexible membrane can be used to engineering material for the future coastal/ocean applications.

  • Recent submillimeter observations of ALMA reveal that many protoplanetary disks contain substructures like gaps or rings. The disk-planet interaction is believed to be the most likely gap formation scenario, and most previous numerical work attempted to constrain the planet mass using the density profiles of gas in the gaps. Since the dust and gas distributions likely differ from each other in protoplanetary disks, however, perturbed rotational velocities that directly probe the gas would give a more reliable estimate to the planet mass. In this work, we run two-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations to measure the amplitudes and widths of rotational velocity perturbations induced by planets with different mass. We present the parametric relations of the gap widths and depths as functions of the planet mass and disk properties. We also apply our relations to HD 163296 to infer the masses of embedded planets.

  • In order to understand hydrodynamic and morphodynamic characteristics under wave-current interactions in an estuary, a coupled model for two-way analysis between existing 3-d numerical wave tank and newly-developed 3-d morphodynamic model has been suggested. Comparing to existing experimental results it is revealed that computed results of the newly-suggested model are in good agreement with each laboratory test result for wave height distribution, vertical flow profile and topographical change around ocean floor pipeline in wave-current coexisting field. Also the numerical result for suspended sediment concentration is verified in comparison with experimental result in solitary wave field. Finally, it is shown that the 3-D coupled Hydro-Morphodynamic model suggested in this study is applicable to morphological change under wave-current interaction in an estuary.

  • 두 선박이 정면에서 마주치며 선박간 상호 통항하거나 상대선을 추월할 경우 각 선박의 선체형상과 선속에 의한 유체력 상호작용에 따른 선박간 간섭력이 발생한다. 선박간 간섭력의 주요한 평가 요소인 횡력과 회두 모멘트의 측정을 통해 두 선박이 근접하였을 때의 위험도와 충돌을 예측할 수 있다. 선행된 간섭력에 관한 연구는 대부분 경험에 의하거나 이론적인 측면에서 관련 연구가 진행되어왔으며, 학계에서 통상적으로 널리 알려진 뉴턴의 연구(1960)에서는 깊은 수심에서 두 선박을 평행하게 항주시켰을 때 선박간 최대 흡인력은 두 선박이 정횡으로 나란하게 위치되는 지점에서 발생하고, 이때의 간섭력은 선속의 제곱에 비례한다고 추정하였다. 현대의 조선기술이 발전함에 따라 선박의 크기는 점점 대형화되고 선박의 운항 효율성 증진을 위한 다양한 선형이 개발되어 실선에 적용되고 있다. 이런 경향에 따라 과거에 비해 현대 선박 운항환경에서의 선박간 간섭은 선박의 크기 및 선형에 의한 영향이 클 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 선박의 종류별로 대표 선종을 선정하여 두 선박이 정면에서 마주치며 통과하는 운항조건에서의 선속 증가에 따른 선박 상호간 간섭력의 변화를 통상적으로 사용되는 선박조종시뮬레이터를 이용하여 실험 및 분석하여 상관관계를 도출하였다. 선박 유형에 따른 시뮬레이션 실험 결과 최대 횡력은 주로 선미 부근에서 발생하였고 최대 회두모멘트는 선수가 근접할 때 발생하였으며, 선속이 증가할수록 선박 상호간 근접거리가 좁혀졌고 선형별로 각기 다른 선속에서 선미 충돌이 발생하였다. 이 실험연구는 선형에 따른 선박 상호간 근접 시의 횡거리와 통과속력에 대한 기준 설정의 연구 근간을 마련하였고 선박간 교항시 안전운항을 위한 지침이 될 것으로 판단된다.

  • This paper presents numerical investigation on behaviors of the rear cover in the vertical launcher under rocket plume loading by using fluid-structure interaction analysis. The rocket plume loading is modeled by the fully Eulerian method and elasto-plastic behavior of the rear cover is predicted by the total Lagrangian method based on a 9-node planar element. The interface motion and boundary conditions are described by a hybrid particle level-set method within the ghost fluid framework. The present results will be compared with the experimental data in the future.

  • The high-skewed and/or composite propellers of current interests to reduce the ship vibration and to increase the acoustic performance are likely to be exposed to the unexpected structural problems. One typical example is that the added mass effect on the propellers working in the non-uniform wake field reduces the natural frequency of the propeller leading to the resonance with the low-frequency excitation of the external forces. To avoid this resonance problem during the design stage, the technique of fluid-structure interaction has been developed, but the higher-order effect of the blade geometry deformation is not yet considered in evaluating the added mass effects. In this paper the fluid boundary-value problem is formulated by the potential-based panel method in the inviscid fluid region with the velocity inflow due to the body deformation, and the structural response of the solid body under the hydrodynamic loading is solved by applying the finite element method which implements the 20-node iso-parametric element model. The fluid-structure problem is solved iteratively. A basic fluid-sturcture interaction study is performed with the simple rectangular plates of thin thickness with various planform submerged in the water of infinite extent. The computations show good correlation with the experimental results of Linholm, et al. (1965).

  • The resistance performance of an icebreaking cargo vessel in pack ice conditions was investigated numerically and experimentally using a recently developed finite element (FE) model and model tests. A comparison between numerical analysis and experimental results with synthetic ice in a standard towing tank was carried out. The comparison extended to results with refrigerated ice to examine the feasibility of using synthetic ice. Two experiments using two different ice materials gave a reasonable agreement. Ship-ice interaction loads are numerically calculated based on the fluid structure interaction (FSI) method using the commercial FE package LS-DYNA. Test results from model testing with synthetic ice at the Pusan National University towing tank, and with refrigerated ice at the National Research Council's (NRC) ice tank, are used to validate and benchmark the numerical simulations. The designed ice-going cargo vessel is used as a target ship for three concentrations (90%, 80%, and 60%) of pack ice conditions. Ice was modeled as a rigid body but the ice density was the same as that in the experiments. The numerical challenge is to evaluate hydrodynamic loads on the ship's hull; this is difficult because LS-DYNA is an explicit FE solver and the FSI value is calculated using a penalty method. Comparisons between numerical and experimental results are shown, and our main conclusions are given.

  • The finite element method (FEM), discrete element method (DEM), and Discontinuous deformation analysis (DDA) are among the standard numerical techniques applied in computational geo-mechanics. However, in some cases there no possibility for modelling by traditional finite analytical techniques or other mesh-based techniques. The solution presented in the current study as a completely Lagrangian and mesh-free technique is smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). This method was basically applied for simulation of fluid flow by dividing the fluid into several particles. However, several researchers attempted to simulate soil-water interaction, landslides, and failure of soil by SPH method. In fact, this method is able to deal with behavior and interaction of different states of materials (liquid and solid) and multiphase soil models and their large deformations. Soil indicates different behaviors when interacting with water, structure, instrumentations, or different layers. Thus, study into these interactions using the mesh based grids has been facilitated by mesh-less SPH technique in this work. It has been revealed that the fast development, computational sophistication, and emerge of mesh-less particle modeling techniques offer solutions for problems which are not modeled by the traditional mesh-based techniques. Also it has been found that the smoothed particle hydrodynamic provides advanced techniques for simulation of soil materials as compared to the current traditional numerical methods. Besides, findings indicate that the advantages of applying this method are its high power, simplicity of concept, relative simplicity in combination of modern physics, and particularly its potential in study of large deformations and failures.
