Pin-on-disk test is a suggested abrasion testing method by ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials). This briefly illustrated the Archimedean spiral motion of a pin type specimen on a disk. To apply this method to rock cutting tools, a constant linear velocity (CLV) is precisely maintained during the test. We defined the two velocity vectors (RPM and horizontal speed) which connected to the resultatnt velocity. We derived a differential equations for the two parameters under CLV condition. It was difficult to find a exact solution. Previous literatures had been reviewed, and an approximate solution was investigated. We mathematically simulated the result for a certain parameter, and examine the accuracy of the solution.

In this work, the effect of composite couplings on hub loads of a hingeless rotor in forward flight is investigated. The hingeless composite rotor blade is idealized as a laminated thin-walled box-beam. The nonclassical effects such as transverse shear, torsional warping are considered in the structural formulation. The nonlinear differential equations of motion are obtained by applying Hamilton's principle. The blade response and hub loads are calculated using a finite element formulation in space and time. The aerodynamic forces acting on the blade are calculated by quasi-steady strip theory. The theory includes the effects of reversed flow and compressibility. The magnitude of elastic couplings obtained by MSC/NASTRAN is compared with the classical pitch-flap $({\delta}3)$ or $pitch-lag({\alpha}1)$ coupling. It is found that the elastic couplings have a substantial effect on the behavior of $N_b/rev$ hub loads. Nearly 10 to 40% of hub loads is reduced by appropriately tailoring the fiber orientation angles in the laminae of the composite blade.

This paper employs computational tools to investigate the diffraction effects in regular head waves on the added resistance and wake on the propeller plane. The objective ships are a 66,000 DWT bulk carrier and a 3,600 TEU container ship. Fixed and free to heave and pitch conditions at design speed have been taken into account. Two-phase unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations have been solved using the finite volume method; and a realizable k-ε model has been applied for the turbulent closure. The free surface is obtained by solving a VOF equation. The computations are carried out at the same scale of the model tests. Grid and numerical wave damping zones are applied to remove unwanted wave reflection at the boundaries. The computational results are analyzed using the Fourier series. The added resistances in waves at the free condition are higher than those at the fixed condition, which are nearly constant for all wavelengths. The wake velocity in waves is higher than that in calm water, and is accelerated where the wave crest locates on the propeller plane. When the vertical motion at the stern goes upward, the wake velocity also accelerated.

A mathematical model has been developed for simulating the spray dryer absorber (SDA) used in semi-dry flue gas desulfurization process. Fundamental equations include the component mass and heat balances in both gas and droplet phases and the equation of motion for a single droplet. The model developed described the pilot-plant data much better than the existing SPRAYMOD-M model. The effect of the process variables, whose values were chosen within the operation limits of the actual pilot plants, on % $SO_2$ removal or conversion of the sorbent were calculated, and discussed in terms of $SO_2$ absorption rate, the residence time of flue gas, the velocity and drying time of droplets. Finally, the % $SO_2$ removal was calculated with two independent process variables and the results were shown on three-dimensional or two-dimensional diagrams with the lines of constant % $SO_2$ removal, so that they can be easily applied to preliminary design of the SDA.

This paper presents a numerical simulation method for the flow around advancing ships in regular waves by using a rectilinear grid system. Because the grid lines do not consist with body surface in the rectilinear grid system, the body geometries are defined by the interaction points of those grid lines and the body surface. For the satisfaction of body boundary conditions, no-slip and divergence free conditions are imposed on the body surface and body boundary cells, respectively. Meanwhile, free surface is defined with the modified marker density method. The pressure on the free surface is determined to make the pressure gradient terms of the governing equations continuous, and the velocity around the free surface is calculated with the pressure on the free surface. To validate the present numerical method, a vortex induced vibration (VIV) phenomenon and flows around an advancing Wigley III ship model in various regular waves are simulated, and the results are compared with existing and corresponding research data. Also, to check the applicability to practical ship model, flows around KRISO Container Ship (KCS) model advancing in calm water are numerically simulated. On the simulations, the trim and the sinkage are set free to compare the running attitude with some other experimental data. Moreover, flows around the KCS model in regular waves are also simulated.

This paper describes behaviors of two-phase open channel flow inside the flash chamber of a horizontal Multi-Stage-Flash evaporator numerically along with the experimental observations. Bubble trajectories and the velocity and temperature distributions of the liquid phase were predicted by using the particle-source-in-cell(PSI-Cell) method with the appropriate bubble motion/growth equations. Size and number of bubble nuclei embedded in the incoming liquid(brine) were taken into account as important parameters in addition to the conventional ones such as the velocity, degree of inlet superheat, inlet opening height, and the liquid level. Bubble motions, which are unsteady, appeared to be mostly determined by the buoyancy and the drag forces. The calculations, though a number of simplifying assumptions were made, reasonably simulated the hydrodynamic behaviors of the two-phase horizontal stream observed in the experiments. The simulated temperature distributions also agreed fairly well with the other's measurements. Non-equilibrium allownaces, evaluated from the simulated temperature distributions, were within the range of those obtained from the existing correlations, and reduced with the increases of the number and size of incoming bubble nuclei due to vigorous flashing.

An Obstacle Avoidance System(OAS) of Underwater Vehicle(UV) in diving and steering plane is investigated. The concept of Imaginary Reference Line(IRL), which acts as the seabed in the diving plane, is introduced to apply the diving plane avoidance algorithm to the steering plane algorithm. Furthermore, the distance to the obstacle and the slope information of the obstacle are used for more efficient and safer avoidance. As for the control algorithm, the sliding mode controller is adopted to consider the nonlinearity of the equations of motion and to get the robustness of the designed system. To verify the obstacle avoidance ability of the designed system, numerical simulations are carried out on the cases of some presumed three-dimensional obstacles. The effects of the sonar and the clearance factor used in avoidance algorithm are also investigated. Through these, it is found that the designed avoidance system can successfully cope with various obstacles and the detection range of sonar is proven to bea significant parameter to the performance of the avoidance.

The current is considered in the conventional manoeuvering equation. This equation is represented as the nonlinear state and measurement equations in which external forces and the direction and the velocity of current are augmented as that variables. The external forces are modeled as the third-order Gauss-Markov processes and the direction and the velocity of current are assumed to be constant. The augmented state variables are estimated with extended Kalman-Bucy filter and the fixed-interval smoother. While Hwang estimated motion state variables, hydrodynamic coefficients and the current variables simultaneously by using extended Kalman filter, external forces of surge, sway and yaw and the direction and the velocity of current are the only parameters to be estimated in the estimation-before-modeling method. The current variables are satisfactorily estimated in simulation process where the measurement noise is present.

A review has been made on what kind of method can be applied to predict the dynamic derivatives of the separated PLF(Payload Fairing) halves of a launch vehicle in consideration of technology and budget. An optimal approach is selected considering the geometric characteristics of the PLF halves, the aerodynamic conditions and the required accuracy. The time history of aerodynamic force/moment coefficients are obtained for the forced harmonic motions by solving the unsteady Euler equations derived with respect to the inertial reference frame. and the dynamic derivatives are deduced by integration of the aerodynamic coefficients for one period. In this research, the dynamic derivatives are presented for 0.6$\leq$ M $\leq$2.0, $-180^{\circ}$ $\leq$$\alpha$ $\leq$$180^{\circ}$ and $-90 ^{\circ}$$\leq$$\beta$$\leq$$90 ^{\circ}$.

The prediction of the exact behavior of multistory building is one of the most complicated problem encountered in structural engineering practice. An efficient computer method for the three dimensional analysis of building structures is presented in this paper. A multistory building is idealized as an assemblage of a series of rectangular plane frames interconnected by rigid floor diaphragms. The matrix condensation technique is employed for the reduction of degrees of freedom, which results in a significant saving in computational efforts and the required memory size. Kinematical approach was used to assemble condensed stiffness matrices of plane frames into a three dimensional stick model stiffness matrix. The static analysis follows the modified tridiagonal approach. Since this procedure utilizes the condensed stiffness matrix of the structure, the dynamic equations of motion for the story displacement are developed by assigning proper mass for each story. Analysis results of several example structures are compared to those obtained by using the well-known SAP IV for verification of the accuracy and efficiency of the computer program PFS which was developed utilizing the method proposed in this study. The analysis method proposed in this study can be used as an efficient and economical means for the analysis of multistory buildings.
