FE analyses for weldment of ship structure are required for various reasons such as stress concentration for bead tow, residual stress and distortion after welding, and hydrogen diffusion for prediction of low temperature crack. These analyses should be done by solid element modeling, but most of ship structures are modeled by shell element. If we are able to make solid element in the shell element FE modeling it is easily to solve the requirement for solid elements in weld analysis of large ship structures. As the nodes of solid element cannot take moments from nodes of shell element, these two kinds of element cannot be used in one model by conventional modeling. The PSCM (Perpendicular shell coupling method) can connect shell to solid. This method uses dummy perpendicular shell element for transferring moment from shell to solid. The target of this study is to develop a FE pre-processing system applicable at welding at ship structure by using PSCM. We also suggested glue-contact technique for controlling element numbers and element qualities and applied it between PSCM and solid element in automatic pre-processing system. The FE weldment modeling through developed pre-processing system will have rational stiffness of adjacent regions. Then FE results can be more reliable when turn-over of ship-block with semi-welded state or ECA (Engineering critical assessment) of weldment in a ship-block are analyzed.

In this paper, the CNC cutting planning module for product with three dimensional solid shape is realized to develop a smart CAD/CAM system which performs systematically from the shape design of procuct by the B-Rep solid modeler to the CNC cutting of product by a machining center. The three dimensional solid shape of product can be easily designed and constructed by the Euler operators and Boolean operators of the solid modeler. And the various functions such as the automatic generation of tool path for the rough and finish cutting processes, the automatic elimination of overcut, the automatic generation of CNC code for the machining center and do on, are established. Especially, the overcut-free tool paths are obtained by splitting the CL solid which is composed of the offset surfaces of the solid shape of product.

In the present work, the numerical model was refined to predict the thermal analysis of energy storage in a fixed beds during charging mode. The governing energy equations of both fluid and the solid particles along with their initial and boundary conditions are derived using a two-phase, one dimensional model. The refined model is carried out by taking into account change of (air density , air specific heat) with air temperature and also by taking into considerations heat losses from bed to surrounding. Finite difference method was used to obtain solution of two governing energy equations of both fluid and solid particles through a computer program especially constructed for this purpose. The temperature field for the air and the solid are obtained, also energy stored inside the bed is computed. A comparison between refined model and non refined model is done. Finally using refined model the effect of bed material (Glass, Fine clay ,and aluminum ), and air flow rate per unit area Ga (0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 kg/$m^2$-s) on energy storage characteristics was studied.

This study aimed to develop an optimal model of transportation for people with disabilities. To achieve this goal, powers of research and design should be involved, including CAD software. This paper investigates both: the concept of optimal model of transportation for people with disabilities (functional, ergonomic, constructive, technological and aesthetic solutions included); and its implementation as a fully-fledged 3D-model designed in SolidWorks environment. The optimal model of transportation is complex and consists of two objects. The first object is for indoors that is a wheelchair, the second one is for street driving that is an individual vehicle. The optimal model of transportation is universal and multifunctional, which have become possible with parametric feature-based approach utilized in SolidWorks.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test a Winningham's psychobiologic entropy model (PEM) on cancer related fatigue (CRF) among patients with solid tumors. Methods: Participants consisted of 213 patients with solid tumors recruited from December, 2012 through June, 2013, in a university hospital, in Hwasun, South Korea. Primary symptoms, adjustment, physical activity, status of nutrition and fatigue were measured using structured questionnaires. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 21.0 programs. Results: The modified model tested provided a reasonable fit to the data ($x^2=65.80$ [df=30, p<.001], TLI=.92, CFI=.95, RMSEA=.08, SRMR=.07). Primary symptoms (dyspnea, anxiety, depression and insomnia) had direct positive effects on CRF. Adjustment and status of nutrition showed indirect negative effects on CRF. However, the impact of physical activity was not significant. These variables explained 49.2% of the variance of CRF among solid tumor patients. Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that the tested model explain some CRF among solid tumor patients and warrant future research considering the cancer-related clinical factors of the given population.

Statement of problem: Standard type of ITI solid implant model in the 6.2mm thick jaw bone was axisymmetrically modelled for finite element stress analyses. Purpose: Primary objective was to investigate the influences or the characteristic design configuration of the ITI solid implant model on the bone stress with the course of osseointegration process at the bone/implant interfaces. To simulate the characteristics of the osseointegration process, five different stages of the bone/implant interface model were implemented. As load conditions, vertical load of 50N was taken into consideration. Bone at the cervical region of implant was the areas of concern where the higher level of stress were likely to take place. Results: The results indicated that rather slightly different stress level could be obtained as a function of the osseointegration conditions. Conclusion: Under vertical load, the lower level of stress was observed at the cervical cortical bone in the initial and final stages of osseointegration. Relatively higher stress level, however, was observed during the transitional stages where the osseointegration at the cancellous bone interface were yet to fully develop.

Failure mechanisms for a solid propellant were discussed, and the stip-yield and the inherent flaw models were applied to them. Then, failure assessment diagram methods were investigated by means of modified two models. Fracture toughness tests using CCT(center-cracked tension) specimens made of a solid propellant were conducted to generate the failure assessment diagrams. The failure assessment diagram of the inherent flaw model was normalized in order to compare with that of the modified strip-yield model. From the comparison of two failure assessment diagrams, it was found that the failure assessment diagram of the modified inherent flaw model more conservatively assesses the failure than that of the modified strip-yield model.

This paper describes the development of automatic shape design program for spur gear. It produces automatically third-dimensional surface and solid model used in CAD/CAM system with inputting simple measurements. This program can maximize user's convenience and get surface and solid model quickly as accepting GUI(graphic user interface). Automatic shape design program for spur gear was developed by Visual LISP, a developer program. Besides, a geometrical method and a mathematical algerian are used in this program. Use frequency of a fine spur gear is on the increase recently and manufacture process of this gear is heat treatment after press processing with molding. In this press processing, the upper punch portion of a fine spur gear shape is drafted by CAM. Therefore, estimated that surface and solid model of spur gear used to CAM are needed in this research. In this research, after 2 ㎜ gear was modeled by auto shape design program, the upper punch portion of a fine spur gear was manufactured as giving third-dimensional model to CAM software and then, displayed the result as applying to press process.

With the advancements of the Internet and CAD data translation techniques, more CAD models are transferred from a CAD system to another through the network and interoperability is getting a common word in the CAD industry. However, when a CAD model is translated for an incompatible system into a neutral format such as STEP or IGES, its precious feature information is lost. When this feature information is lost, the advantage of feature based modeling is not valid any longer, and modification for the model is purely dependent on geometric and topological manipulations. However, the capabilities of the existing methods to modify these feature-independent models are limited as the modification involves a topological change in the model. To address this issue, we present a volumetric method to modify the solid models in neutral format. First, this method selectively decomposes the solid model to separate the portion of interest called feature volume. Next, the designer modifies the feature volume without concerning a topological change. Finally, the feature volume is united with the original solid model to complete the modification process. The results of test cases are presented to attest the usefulness of the proposed method.

The concept of Level Of Detail (LOD) was introduced and has been used to enhance display performance and to carry out certain engineering analysis effectively. We would like to use an adequate complexity level for each geometric model depending on specific engineering needs and purposes. Solid modeling systems are widely used in industry, and are applied to advanced applications such as virtual assembly. In addition, as the demand to share these engineering tasks through networks is emerging, the problem of building a solid model of an appropriate resolution to a given application becomes a matter of great necessity. However, current researches are mostly focused on triangular mesh models and various operators to reduce the number of triangles. So we are working on the multi-resolution of the solid model itself, rather than that of the triangular mesh model. In this paper, we propose multi-resolution representation of B-rep model by reordering and converting design features into an enclosing volume and subtractive features.
