Effect of reentrant type bowl geometry on combustion characteristics was investigated in a D.I. diesel engine. The main factor was the cupola height of bowl center and the reentrant angle of combustion chamber, and the cylinder pressure, engine performance and emissions of the engine using the total 11 kinds of the combustion chamber were measured by test. The results are as follows. The NOx decreases by increasing the cupola height of bowl center because it makes the decreasing of maximum combustion pressure by the heat loss and smooth combustion from good airflow. The smoke increases by increasing the reentrant angle at high speed range of the engine, but decrease at low and medium speed range until the reentrant angle becomes $15^{\circ}$.

The elastic analysis of floor slabs using the p-version of finite element method encounters stress singularities at certain types of reentrant corners, openings and cut-outs. Results obtained using the computer code based on C$\^$o/-hierarchic plate element formulated by Reissner-Mindlin theory are compared with theoretical predictions and with computational results reported in the literature. The convergence rate of h-, p- and hp-version can be estimated on the basis of the energy norm in global sense. If accuracy in terns of the number of degrees-of-freedom is used as a criterion, the solutions presented here are the most efficient that have been published up to date. Examples are the rhombic plate with the obtuse angle of 150o and the square plate with cut-outs.

The elastic analysis of floor slabs using the p-version of finite element method encounters stress singularities at certain types of reentrant corners, openings and cut-outs. Results obtained using the computer code based on C.deg. - hierarchic plate element formulated by Reissner-Mindlin theory are compared with theoretical predictions and with computational results reported in the literature. The convergence rate of h-, p- and hp-version can be estimated on the basis of the energy norm in global sense. If accuracy in terms of the number of degree-of-freedom is used as a criterion, the solutions presented here are the most efficient that have been published up to date. Examples are the rhombic plate with the obtuse angle of 150.deg. and the square plate with cut-outs.
