This study attempts to address the buckling and free vibration characteristics of an isotropic cylindrical panel subjected to non-uniform temperature rise using numerical approach. Finite element analysis has been used in the present study. The approach involves three parts, in the first part non-uniform temperature field is obtained using heat transfer analysis, in the second part, the stress field is computed under the thermal load using static condition and, the last part, the buckling and pre-stressed modal analysis are carried out to compute critical buckling temperature as well as natural frequencies and associated mode shapes. In the present study, the effect of non-uniform temperature field, heat sink temperatures and in-plane boundary constraints are considered. The relation between buckling temperature under uniform and non-uniform temperature fields has been established. Results revealed that decrease (Case (ii)) type temperature variation field influences the fundamental buckling mode shape significantly. Further, it is observed that natural frequencies under free vibration state, decreases as temperature increases. However, the reduction is significantly higher for the lowest natural frequency. It is also found that, with an increase in temperature, nodal and anti-nodal positions of free vibration mode shapes is shifting towards the location where the intensity of the heat source is high and structural stiffness is low.

Buckling and free vibration behavior of a laminated cylindrical panel exposed to non-uniform thermal load is addressed in the present study. The approach comprises of three portions, in the first portion, heat transfer analysis is carried out to compute the non-uniform temperature fields, whereas second portion consists of static analysis wherein stress fields due to thermal load is obtained, and the last portion consists of buckling and prestressed modal analyzes to capture the critical buckling temperature as well as first five natural frequencies and associated mode shapes. Finite element is used to perform the numerical investigation. The detailed parametric study is carried out to analyze the effect of nature of temperature variation across the panel, laminate sequence and structural boundary constraints on the buckling and free vibration behavior. The relation between the buckling temperature of the panel under uniform temperature field and non-uniform temperature field is established using magnification factor. Among four cases considered in this study for position of heat sources, highest magnification factor is observed at the forefront curved edge of the panel where heat source is placed. It is also observed that thermal buckling strength and buckling mode shapes are highly sensitive to nature of temperature field and the effect is significant for the above-mentioned temperature field. Furthermore, it is also observed that the panel with antisymmetric laminate has better buckling strength. Free vibration frequencies and the associated mode shapes are significantly influenced by the non-uniform temperature variations.

In this paper, the ac breakdown characteristics of Ar/$N_2$and Kr/$N_2$gas mixtures with gas pressure range of 58.8~137.3[kPa] under uniform and non-uniform fields were investigated. Summarizing the experimental results, the breakdown voltages of Ar/$N_2$ gas mixtures were decreased with decreasing the mixture ratio of pure $N_2$gas. In case of Ar(85%)/$N_2$(15%) and Ar(70%)/$N_2$(30%) gas mixtures comparing to the pure Ar gas, the breakdown voltages under uniform field were increased about 1.8 and 2.2 times, and under non-uniform field were increased about 1.1 and 1.3 times at the pressure of 101.3[kPa]. Also, in case of Kr(85%)/$N_2$(15%) and Kr(70%)/$N_2$(30%) gas mixtures comparing to the pure Kr gas, the breakdown voltages under uniform field were increased about 1.7 and 2.0 times, and under non-uniform field were increased about 1.0 and 1.2 times.

In this paper, coupling factors are calculated based on numerical analysis in order to assess various non-uniform low-frequency magnetic field exposure situations. Two types of non-uniform magnetic field sources are considered; circular coil and parallel wires with balanced currents. For each magnetic field source, source current values are determined so that reference magnetic field magnitude can be measured at the specified point on the human model. Various exposure situations are investigated by changing parameters such as the distance between source and human model, radius of circular coil, and the gap between parallel wires. For equivalent human models, prolate spheroid model and simplified human model from IEC 62311 standard are used. The calculated coupling factor values are compared with those obtained by 2D uniform disk human model, and the dependence of coupling factor on the choice of equivalent human model is analyzed.

Two decisive mechanisms of the electrorhological polishing for a small part(for example, a aspherical surface in a micro lens) are explained. Firstly, non-uniform electric field generated in the polishing structure increases a shear stress of ER fluids which is maximized dramatically near the tool, therefore, substrate adjacent to the tool can be removed effectively by mixed abrasives in the ER fluid. Secondly, abrasives in a non-uniform electric field are governed by the dielectrophoretic phenomena. Abrasives move toward the tool because the field gradient is highest near the tool and then abrasives are actively holded in that area. This phenomena is observed and evaluated by the optical measurement.

엑스선 디지털 검출기의 내부 픽셀들은 조금씩 다른 감도와 오프셋 변동을 가지게 되어 불균일한 영상이 얻어진다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 flat-field 보정 방법이 개발되었고, 이는 디지털 의료 영상 시스템의 전처리 과정에서 필수적으로 수행된다. 그럼에도 불구하고 여러 가지 이유로 균일하지 않은 영상이 획득되는 경우가 종종 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 디지털 의료 영상 장비에서 획득된 불균일한 영상에 flat-field 보정을 다시 적용시켜 화질이 개선되는 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 객관적인 화질의 평가를 위해 보정 전후의 NPS를 각각 산출하여 비교하였다. 주파수 영역에서 잡음의 변화를 분석한 결과 저주파수 성분의 잡음이 flat-field 보정 후에 크게 제거된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The unsteady Hartmann flow of an electrically conducting, viscous, incompressible fluid bounded by two parallel non-conducting porous plates is studied with heat transfer. An external uniform magnetic field and a uniform suction and injection are applied perpendicular to the plates while the fluid motion is subjected to a constant pressure gradient. The two plates are kept at different but constant temperatures while the Joule and viscous dissipations are included in the energy equation. The effect of the magnetic field and the uniform suction and injection on both the velocity and temperature distributions is examined.

A reactor coolant pump (RCP) is essential for transporting coolant in the primary loop of pressurized water reactors. In the advanced passive reactor, the absence of a long pipeline between the steam generator and RCP serves as a transition section, resulting in a non-uniform flow field at the pump inlet. Therefore, the characteristics of the pump should be investigated under non-uniform flow to determine its influence on the pump. In this study, the pressure pulsation characteristics were examined in the time and frequency domains, and the sources of low-frequency and high-amplitude signals were analyzed using wavelet coherence analysis and numerical simulation. From computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results, non-uniform inflow has a great effect on the flow structures in the pump's inlet. The pressure pulsation in the pump at the rated flow increased by 78-128.7% under the non-uniform inflow condition in comparison with that observed under the uniform inflow condition. Furthermore, a low-frequency signal with a high amplitude was observed, whose energy increased significantly under non-uniform flow. The wavelet coherence and CFD analysis verified that the source of this signal was the low-frequency pulsating vortex under the steam generator.

In this paper, the ac breakdown characteristics of pure Ar, Kr and $N_2$ gas with gas pressure range of 58.8-137.3[kPa] under uniform and non-uniform fields were investigated, and the measured values were compared with those In Ar/$N_2$ and Kr/$N_2$ gas mixtures with pressure varying. Summarizing the experimental results, the breakdown voltages of Pure $N_2$gas, under uniform and non-uniform fields, were increased about 4.8 and 1.1 times than those of pure Ar gas, and about 4.4 and 1.2 times than those of pure Kr gas, and the ac breakdown voltage increased with the pressure increasing. The breakdown voltages of Ar/$N_2$ gas mixtures were decreased with decreasing the mixture ratio of Pure $N_2$ gas. In case of Ar(85%)/$N_2$ (15%) and Ar(70%)/$N_2$ (30%) gas mixtures comparing to the pure Ar gas, the breakdown voltages under uniform field were increased about 1.8 and 2.2 times, and under non-uniform field were increased about 1.1 and 1.3 times at the pressure of 101.3[kPa]. Also, in case of Kr(85%)/$N_2$ (15%) and Kr(70%)/$N_2$ (30%) gas mixtures comparing to the pure Kr gas, the breakdown voltages under uniform field were increased about 1.7 and 2.0 times, and under non-uniform field were increased about 1.0 and 1.2 times. Corona inception voltage of Kr(70%)/$N_2$(30%) gas mixtures under non-uniform fields were increased about 1.28 times than those of Ar(70%)/$N_2$ (30%) gas mixtures. In case of practical incandescent lamps, luminous and lifetime of Kr(70%)/$N_2$ (30%) gas mixtures were increased about 1.15 and 1.21 times than those of Ar(70%)/$N_2$ (30%) gas mixtures.

ELF 전자파의 생물학적인 영향 평가를 위한 in vitro 세포실험에서 노출장치의 설게는 코일내의 유도기전력(E)과 전류밀도 (J) 해석과 함께 이루어져야 한다. 균일 자기장 속에서 세포응 배양할 경우에도 배양기내의 전도성 매질오 인해 균일한 E와 J가 분포하지않는다. 따라서 균일한 ELF 자기장 노출장치로부터 발생되는 샘플 매질 내에서 E와 j를 정확히 예측하는 것은 in vitro 세포실험의 성공여부를 가늠할 정도로 매우 중요한 정보가 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 in vitro 실험에 접합한 ELF in vitro 노출장치를 설계하고 노출장치에 대한 전자기학적 평가를 수행하였다. 코일 내에서 샘플 매질의 유무와 샘플 내에서도 세포가 놓여질 임의의 위치에 따라 E와 J를 예측하고 검증을 위한 측정과 시뮬레이션을 시도하였다. 노출장치는 헬름 홀쯔 코일로 제작되었고 자기장의 세기는 1-20G 범위 내에서 가변이 가능하다. 또한 코일내의 자기장의 분포가 균일(uniform), 비균일(non-uniform)한 두 가지 모드를 각각 제작하여 보였다.
