An unstructured parallel overset mesh method has been developed for the simulation of unsteady flows around multiple bodies in relative motion. For this purpose, an efficient and robust search method is proposed for the unstructured grid system. A new data-structure is also proposed to handle the variable number of data on parallel sub-domain boundary. The interpolation boundary is defined for data communication between grid systems. An interpolation method to retain second-order spatial accuracy and to treat the points inside the neighboring solid bodies are also suggested. A single store separating from the Eglin/Pylon configuration is calculated and the result is compared with experimental data for validation. Simulation of unsteady flows around multiple bodies in relative motion is also performed.

In this paper, we described the aeroelastic full-bridge model tests that were conducted to investigate the effect of alternative temporary stabilizing measures for thecable-stayed bridge during construction to ensure aerodynamic stability in the event of a typhoon or similar disasters. The effect of alternative temporary stabilizing measures was investigated through various configurations on two cable-stayed bridges with a main span of 475 m and 230 m, respectively. To investigate the bridge's aerodynamic behaviour and dynamic wind force during construction, the deflections at the end of the cantilever, the accelerations atthe top of the pylon and the moments at the lower part of the pylon were measured. As the result, the system with two sets of vertical cables per cantilever seemed to be the overall most effective solution, but the system with single vertical cable may also work. The combined system using the caisson support and vertical cables and the system with two sets of inclined cables per cantilever on the same anchor block may also be a solution. The inclined cables from the caisson to the girder were effective for some early stages of erecting the deck.

In this study, simplified whirl flutter analyses using quasisteady aerodynamic theory have been performed for a 2-DOF tilt-rotor system with both pitch and yaw motions of a rotor-nacelle. The present dynamic system consists of the rotor (propeller), forming the gyroscopic and aerodynamic element, supported horizontally by a pylon that is pivoted at some wing attachment point. Several design parameters (or rotor-nacelle system are considered and the effect of whirl flutter stability are also investigated for various design parameters.

The aim of this paper is to open up a relatively new type in bridge engineering by introducing plan and design of extradosed bridge which is implemented in Sungnam-Janghowon T/K project. The topic encompasses parametric study including the behavior of the bridge relevant to the cable layout, the distance from pier table to the first cable's location, the height of pylon, the stiffness of cross section and wind vibration to ascertain sectional type of bridge and span length. For the purpose of the knowledge base presented here, the important feature of design is recommended such as modeling method, camber control, finite element analysis and heat hydration of pier table. We can verify the issue related to the characteristics of extradosed bridge as a result of study and design endeavor.

For the application of slip form method to the pylon of Yi Sun-shin bridge which has much variation in its cross section, the change of setting properties of concrete due to changing weather and long pumping distance has to be taken into consideration. Different setting properties of several types of cement according to the amount of compound and ambient temperature were observed in this paper.

Practical stability design method of main members of cable-stayed bridges is proposed and discussed through a design example. For this purpose, initial tensions of stay cables and axial forces of main members are firstly determined using initial shaping analysis of bridges under dead loads. And then the effective buckling length using system elastic/inelastic buckling analysis and bending moments considering $P-{\delta}-{\Delta}$ effect by second-order elastic analysis are calculated for main girder and pylon members subjected to both axial forces and moments, respectively. Particularly, load combinations of dead and live loads, in which maximum load effects due to live loads are obtained, are taken into account and effects of live loads on effective buckling lengths are investigated.

In this study, numerical simulations of transonic aircraft configurations are performed with various turbulence models and the effect of turbulence models on flow separation are examined. A three-dimensional RANS code and three turbulence models are used for the study. The turbulence models incorporated to the code include Menter's ${\kappa}-{\omega}$ model, Coakley's $q-{\omega}$, and Huang and Coakley's ${\kappa}-{\omega}$, model. Using the code, numerical simulations of DLR-F6 configurations obtained from AIAA CFD Drag Prediction Workshop are conducted. Flow separations on the wing-body juncture and the wing lower surface near pylon are observed. and flow features of the regions are compared with experimental data and other numerical results.

지금까지의 항공기 날개에 공력 탄성학적 제어를 위해 압전재료를 작동기로 사용하는 연구는 아직은 완전하지 못하지만 실용화 가능성을 조사하기 위해 집중적인 투자가 행해지고 있다. 본 글에서 언급한 예 외에도 압전재를 이용 날개의 익형을 능동적으로 조절함으로써 천음속에서의 저항을 줄이기 위한 연구(transonic drag reduction with piezos), 압전재로 작동하는 제어면을 부착하여 헬리쿱터 블레이드 의 진동을 제어하기 위한 실험적 연구, 항공기 외부 장착물에 의해 발생되는 불안정 성을 제어하기 위한 압전작동기를 사용한 pylon decoupler 설계 등 다양한 분에에서 연구가 되고 있다. 하지만 아직까지는 제어에 필요한 충분한 제어력을 얻는 문제, 주 구조물과 압전재료의 강성도의 차이, 가용한 압전재의 실용화, 내구성 문제 등 항공 기에의 응용을 위한 새로운 재료의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 그리고 사용에 필요한 전력을 공급하는 문제는 지상에서 작동되는 시스템과는 달리 항공기에서는 해결해야 될 큰 문제점이며, 이에 대한 연구가 요구되고 있으며, 실용 가능성이 보일 경우 재료의 내구성, 제어 성능, 번개 등 외력에 대한 손상 예측 등 광범위한 연구가 이어 질 것으로 예측된다.

A three-dimensional aerodynamic shape optimization technique in inviscid compressible flows is developed by using a parallel continuous adjoint formulation on unstructured meshes. A new surface mesh modification method is proposed to overcome difficulties related to patch-level remeshing for unstructured meshes, and the effect of design sections on aerodynamic shape optimization is examined. Applications are made to three-dimensional wave drag minimization problems including an ONERA M6 wing and the EGLIN wing-pylon-store configuration. The results show that the present method is robust and highly efficient for the shape optimization of aerodynamic configurations, independent of the number of design variables used.
