The objective of the present paper is to review and implement the most recent developments in the Spectral Element Method (SEM), as well as improve aspects of its implementation in the study of wave propagation by numerical simulation in elastic unbounded domains. The classical formulation of the method is reviewed, and the construction of the mass matrix, stiffness matrix and the external force vector is expressed in terms of matrix operations that are familiar to earthquake engineers. To account for the radiation condition at the external boundaries of the domain, a new absorbing boundary condition, based on the Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) is proposed and implemented. The new formulation, referred to as the Multi-Axial Perfectly Matched Layer (M-PML), results from generalizing the classical Perfectly Matched Layer to a medium in which damping profiles are specified in more than one direction.

Latching control was applied to a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) buoy with direct linear electric Power Take-Off (PTO) systems oscillating in heave direction in waves. The equation of the motion of the WEC buoy in the time-domain is characterized by the wave exciting, hydrostatic, radiation forces and by several damping forces (PTO, brake, and viscous). By applying numerical schemes, such as the semi-analytical and Newmark ${\beta}$ methods, the time series of the heave motion and velocity, and the corresponding extracted power may be obtained. The numerical prediction with the latching control is in accordance with the experimental results from the systematic 1:10-model test in a wave tank at Seoul National University. It was found that the extraction of wave energy may be improved by applying latching control to the WEC, which particularly affects waves longer than the resonant period.

In this study, a six degree-of-freedom motion analysis of a wind-wave hybrid platform equipped with numerous wave energy converters (WECs) was carried out. To examine the effect of the WECs on the platform, an analysis of one-way coupling was carried out, which only considered the power take-off (PTO) damping of the static WECs on the platform. The equation of motion of a floating platform with mooring lines in the time domain was established, and the responses of the one-way coupled platform were then compared with the case of a platform without any coupling effects from the WECs. The hydrodynamic coefficients and wave exciting forces were obtained from the 3D diffraction/radiation pre-processor code WAMIT based on the boundary element method. Then, an analysis of the dynamic responses of the floating platform with or without the WEC effect in the time domain was carried out. All of the dynamics of a floating platform with multiple wind turbines were obtained by coupling FAST and CHARM3D in the time domain, which was further extended to include additional coupled dynamics for multiple turbines. The analysis showed that the PTO damping effect on platform motions was negligible, but coupled effects between multiple WECs and the platform may differentiate the heave, roll, and pitch platform motions from the one without any effects induced by WECs.

B-spline을 이용하여 물체의 형상과 포텐셜을 표현함으로써, 저차경계요소법의 단점들을 극복하고 수치계산의 정도를 높이기 위한 고차 패널법을 개발하였다. 물체표면과 자유표면에 법선 다이폴과 쏘스를 분포시켰으며, 자유표면 및 방사조건을 만족시키기 위해 상류차분식을 사용하는 대신 B-spline의 기저함수를 미분하여 선형화된 자유표면 경계조건에 직접 적용하였다. 이 방법을 적용함으로써 Dawson 방법에서 문제가 되었던 수치감쇠 문제를 피할 수 있었다. 수치계산 프로그램을 검증하기 위해 2차원 원주주위의 유동계산과 날개면 주위의 유동해석을 수행하였으며, B-spline 기저 고차패널법에 의한 수치계산 결과가 저차패널법에 비해 빠른 수렴성과 정확성을 보였고 계산에 필요한 패널 수가 현저히 줄어드는 대단히 만족스러운 결과를 얻었다.

Among the various wave power systems, Salter's duck (rotor) is one of the most effective wave absorbers for extracting wave energy. The rotor shape is designed such that the front part faces the direction of the incident wave, which forces it to bob up and down due to wave-induced water particle motion, whereas the rear part, which is mostly circular in shape, reflects no waves. The asymmetric geometric shape of the duck makes it absorb energy efficiently. In the present study, the rotor was investigated using WAMIT (a program based on the linear potential flow theory in three-dimensional diffraction/radiation analyses) in the frequency domain and verified using OrcaFlex (design and analysis program of marine system) in the time domain. Then, an experimental investigation was conducted to assess the performance of the rotor motion based on the model scale in a two-dimensional (2D) wave tank. Initially, a free decay test (FDT) was carried out to obtain the viscous damping coefficient. The pitch response was extracted from the experimental time series in a periodic regular wave for two different wave heights (1 cm and 3 cm). In addition, the viscous damping coefficient was calculated from the FDT result and fluid forces, obtained from WAMIT, are incorporated into the final response of the rotor. Finally, a comparative study based on experimental and numerical results (WAMIT & OrcaFlex) was performed to confirm the performance reliability of the designed rotor.

현재 의료방사선 분야에서 차폐를 목적으로 주로 사용되고 있는 납(Pb)소재는 방사선 차폐 기능은 뛰어 나지만 납 자체가 가지고 있는 인체 유해성과 무거운 무게에 의한 불편함 때문에 지속적으로 직, 간접적으로 방사선 피폭 위험을 차단함과 동시에 납 소재를 대체할 수 있는 인체 친화적인이며 가벼우면서 사용편의성을 가진 차폐소재의 연구는 지속적으로 진행되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반적으로 사용되는 PET(polyethylene terephthalate) 필름과 실제 방사선 방호복 사용되는 원단소재를 기재로 하여 방사선을 차폐할 수 있는 금속물질인 비스무트, 텅스텐, 주석을 스퍼터링 진공증착 방식을 통한 다층박막을 구현하여 차페필름을 제작하여 방사선 차폐소재로의 적용가능성을 평가하였다. 차폐필름을 제작하기 위한 인가전압, 롤 구동속력, 가스공급량을 제어하면서 차폐물질별 최적화된 조건을 확립하여 방사선 차폐필름 제작하였다. 모재와 차폐금속박막간 밀착력 확인은 Cross-cut 100/100으로 확인하였고 시간에 따른 박막의 변화를 측정하기 위해 내열탕 테스트 1시간을 통하여 박막의 안정성을 확인하였다. 최종적으로 구현된 차폐필름의 차폐성능은 한국방사선진흥협회를 통한 실제 방사선 차폐성능을 측정한 결과 시험조건(역넓은 빔, 관전압 50 kV, 반가층 1.828 mmAl)을 설정하여 감쇠비 16.4 (초기값 0.300 mGy/s, 측정값 0.018 mGy/s)와 감쇠비 4.31(초기값 0.300 mGy/s, 측정값 0.069 mGy/s)의 결과를 얻었다. 추후 제품화를 위한 공정효율성을 확보하여 가벼우면서 차폐성능을 보유한 필름 및 원단을 활용하여 방사선 방호복이나 차폐기능을 가진 건축자재로의 필름적용을 위한 초석을 마련하였다.

It is well known that flexible composite material propeller has superior radiation noise characteristics with outstanding damping effects. In this paper, three flexible composite material propellers were produced using compression molding process, and their hydrodynamic performances and radiation noise characteristics were measured. One propeller, C1, was made up from carbon/epoxy composite laminates, and the other two ones, G1 and G2, from glass/epoxy ones. Their fiber arrays were selected by the progressive damage structural analysis of propellers using composite material model MAT_162 (Composite_DMG_MSC) linked with LS-DYNA code. Carbon/epoxy and glass/epoxy composite specimen tests were performed, their damage mechanisms were figured out, and their parameters were calibrated by their progressive damage structural analysis according to their damage criteria.

A B-spline based high order panel method was developed for the motion of bodies in an ideal fluid, either of infinite extent or with a free boundarysurface. In this method, both the geometry and the potential are represented by the B-spline, which guarantees more accurate results than most potential based low order methods. In the present work, we applied this B-spline based high order method to the radiation problem of floating bodies. The boundary condition on the free surface was satisfied by adopting a Kelvin-type Green function and irregular frequencies were removed by placing additional control points on the free surface surrounding the body. The numerical results were validated by comparison with existing numerical and experimental results.
