A smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method is applied for simulating two-dimensional free-surface problems. The SPH method based on the Lagrangian formulation provides realistic flow motions with violent surface deformation, fragmentation and reunification. In this study, the effect of computational parameters in SPH simulation is explored through two-dimensional dam-breaking and sloshing problem. The parameters to be considered are the speed of sound, the frequency of density re-initialization, the number of particle and smoothing length. Through a series of numerical test. detailed information was obtained about how SPH solution can be more stabilized and improved by adjusting computational parameters. Finally, some numerical simulations for various fluid flow problem were carried out based on the parameters chosen through the sensitivity study.

The main aim of this study is to introduce optimal design of homogeneous earth dams with oblique and horizontal drains based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) incorporating weighted least squares support vector machine (WLS-SVM). To achieve this purpose, the upstream and downstream slopes of earth dam, the length of oblique and horizontal drains and angle among the drains are considered as the design variables in the optimization problem of homogeneous earth dams. Furthermore, the seepage through dam body and the weight of dam as objective functions are minimized in the optimization process simultaneously. In the optimization procedure, the stability coefficient of the upstream and downstream slopes and the seepage through dam body as the hydraulic responses of homogeneous earth dam are required. Hence, the hydraulic responses are predicted using WLS-SVM approach. The optimal results of illustrative examples demonstrate the efficiency and computational advantages of PSO with WLS-SVM in the optimal design of homogeneous earth dams with drains.

Effects of particle size and physical effective fibre (peNDF) of rice straw in diets on chewing activities, feed intake, flow, site and extent of digestion and rumen fermentation in goats were investigated. A 4${\times}$4 Latin square design was employed using 4 mature Liuyang black goats fitted with permanent ruminal, duodenal, and terminal ileal fistulae. During each of the 4 periods, goats were offered 1 of 4 diets that were similar in nutritional content but varied in particle sizes and peNDF through alteration of the theoretical cut length of rice straw (10, 20, 40, and 80 mm, respectively). Dietary peNDF contents were determined using a sieve for particle separation above 8 mm, and were 17.4, 20.9, 22.5 and 25.4%, respectively. Results showed that increasing the particle size and peNDF significantly (p<0.05) increased the time spent on rumination and chewing activities, duodenal starch digestibility and ruminal pH, and decreased ruminal starch digestibility and $NH_{3}$-N concentration. Intake and total tract digestibility of nutrients (i.e. dry matter, organic matter, and starch) and ruminal fermentation were not affected by the dietary particle size and peNDF. Increased particle size and peNDF did not affect ruminal fibre digestibility, but had a great impact on the intestinal and total tract fibre digestibility. The study suggested that rice straw particle size or dietary peNDF was the important influential factor for chewing activity, intestinal fibre and starch digestibility, and ruminal pH, but had minimal impact on feed intake, duodenal and ileal flow, ruminal and total tract digestibility, and ruminal fermentation.

일반적으로 복합재의 강도에 대한 크기 효과는 입자강화 알루미늄 복합재 제조시, 입자와 기지재를 압밀한 후 냉각할 때 입자와 기지재 사이의 열팽창계수 차에 의하여 기지재에 펀칭되는 기하적 필수 전위와, 변형 중 입자와 기지재사이의 탄소성 강성도 차로 인해 발생하는 변형률 구배 소성으로 인한 기하적 필수 전위가 주로 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 두 종류의 기하적 필수 전위를 전위 소성 이론에 입각하여 강도로 환산한 후 계층적으로 입자 주위 유한요소 영역에 할당하여 동일한 체적비에서 입자의 크기에 따라 변화하는 복합재의 파손 거동을 효과적으로 예측하였다. 이 방법을 적용함으로써 구형입자의 경우 간단한 축대칭 유한요소 모델링과 실험데이터를 연계하여 입자강화 복합재의 입자 크기 의존 강도 및 파손 효과를 수월하게 예측할 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 서로 다른 입자의 체적비 및 크기에 대하여SiC강화 알루미늄 2124-T4 복합재의 강도와 파손 거동이 분명한 차이가 있음을 보인다.

본 연구는 높은 분산 안정성을 유지하는 antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO) 분산액을 제조하기 위하여, 습식 볼밀법으로 분쇄시간에 따른 ATO의 입자크기, 입도분포, 분산성의 변화를 고찰하였다. 또한 각각의 습식 볼밀 처리된 ATO 분산액의 pH를 변화시켜 ATO 분산액의 분산 특성을 고찰하였다. 습식 볼밀 분쇄 조건에 의하여 ATO의 입자크기 및 입도 분포 변화는 레이저회절 입도분석기와 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 평가하였고, 습식 볼밀 분쇄 시간 및 pH조건에 따른 ATO 입자의 분산성은 제타전위 측정법과 다중광산란(multiple light scattering)법을 이용하여 평가하였다. 분쇄 조건 중 60 min 동안 처리된 ATO 입자 크기는 30% 이하로 작아지고, $1{\sim}35{\mu}m$에서 $0.1{\sim}5{\mu}m$로 입도분포를 갖는 균일한 입자를 얻을 수 있었다. 그러나 분쇄조건을 60 min 이상 처리한 것은 역분쇄 및 재응집 현상의 발생으로 인하여 한계 분쇄 시간이 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과로부터 ATO 분산액은 습식 볼밀 분쇄 시간을 증가시킬수록 입자 크기가 감소하고 표면 에너지가 증가하여 입자간의 반발력이 커지게 됨을 알 수 있었고, 또한 용액의 pH를 증가시킬수록 입자의 표면 이온화도가 커짐으로 인하여 ATO 분산액의 분산성이 향상되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

To understand oxygenated fuel characteristics including spray penetration length and spray angle at a real engine ambient pressure condition, DME was injected into a high pressure chamber by a piezo injector common rail system. The piezo injector common rail system was able to apply steady injection pressure, rapid response, and accurate injection quantity. Injection and ambient pressure were varied to confirm a relation with spray form. Using a direct photographing technique, development process of DME spray was captured. DME injection quantity was enlarged linearly as increasing of the injection pressure. In the high pressure chamber, when the injection pressure was enlarged the penetration length and velocity were increased due to a big momentum of fuel particle at the same ambient pressure. When ambient pressure was increased, the DME spray penetration length and velocity were decreased since the high ambient density of nitrogen was acted as a resistance. Although the ambient pressure and injection pressure were varied, each case of spray angle was almost same since the spray angle had a connection of the injector nozzle geometry.

To investigate the turbulence characteristics within the boundary layer over a flat plate, an experimental study was performed using a PIV technique in a circular water channel. For two water velocities, 0.92 and 1.99 m/s, the water velocity profiles were taken and analyzed to determine turbulent characteristics such as the Reynolds stress, Taylor micro-length scale, and Kolmogorov length scale within the defect law region of the boundary layer. These analysis methods may be applied to research on the friction drag reduction technology using micro-bubbles or an air sheet over the surface of a ship's hull, because the physical reason for the friction drag reduction could be found by understanding the variation of the turbulence characteristics and structures in the boundary layer.

Recess is a geometrical configuration shape that the exit surface of an inner injector is located at a certain length inward from that of an outer injector. It is known to have the characteristics that it can augment mixing efficiency and flame stabilization through internal mixing of propellant in it. So, various experiments, such as backlit stroboscopic photography, phase Doppler particle analyzer(PDPA) and mechanical patternator, were performed at several recess lengths to grasp its effect on the spray characteristics of spray angle, breakup length, atomization and' mixing. Recess length was normalized to dimensionless recess number and two principal mechanisms of impingement and swirl recovery were introduced to explain its influence on the spray characteristics. The effect of recess on SMD doesn't appear significantly near the recess number where mixing efficiency attains to the maximum, whereas mass distribution and mixing efficiency are changed considerably. Thus, it can be inferred that a certain optimum recess number exists, where mixing efficiency becomes the maximum.

In this paper, we have developed a simple, new and economical carbonation method to synthesize a pure form of aragonite needles using dolomite raw materials. The obtained aragonite Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) was characterized by XRD and SEM, for the measurement of morphology, particle size, and aspect ratio (ratio of length to diameter of the particles). The synthesis of aragonite PCC involves two steps. At first, after calcinated dolomite fine powder was dissolved in water for hydration, the hydrated solution was mixed with aqueous solution of magnesium chloride at $80^{\circ}C$, and then $CO_2$ was bubbled into the suspension for 3 h to produce aragonite PCC. Finally, aragonite type precipitated calcium carbonate can be synthesized from natural dolomite via a simple carbonation process, yielding product with average particle size of $30-40{\mu}m$.
