  • The cavitating flow simulation is of practical importance for many engineering systems, such as marine propellers, pump impellers, nozzles, injectors, torpedoes, etc. The present work has developed a base code for simulating cavitating flows past cylinders and hydrofoils. The governing equation is the Navier-Stokes equation based on homogeneous mixture model. The momentum and energy equation is in the mixture phase while the continuity equation is solved in liquid and vapor phase, separately. The solver employs an implicit preconditioning algorithm in curvilinear coordinates. The computations have been carried out for the cylinders with spherical, 1- and 0-caliber forebody and hydrofoil of ALE and NACA cross-section and, then, compared with experiments and other numerical results. Fairly good agreements with experiments and numerical results have been achieved. The present base code has shown the feasibility to solve the cavitating flow past supercavitating torpedo after the improvement for compressibility effects and interactions with hot exhaust gas of propulsive rocket.

  • A this experimental study is executed to analyze spray characteristics for air-shrouded injector and 4hole 2spray type injector used in a gasoline engine. Since spray parameters including spray penetration and angle, SMD, and atomization characteristics are very important to increase the engine performance, the image processing algorithm for measuring the non-spherical spray diameter is developed. Spray characteristics of the air-shrouded injector(2hole 2spray) and 4hole-2spray injector are analyzed respectively by this digital image processing method. Effective spray characteristics to injectors is derived from this experimentation and obtained the design guide for gasoline injector.

  • This paper is concerned with estimating the mass of a loose part in the steam generator of a nuclear power plant. Although there is the basic principle known as “Hertz Theory”for estimating mass and energy of a spherical part impacted on an infinite flat plate, the theory is not directly applicable because real plants do not comply with the underlying ideal assumptions. (Say, the steam generator is of a cylindrical and hemisphere shape.) In this work, a practical method is developed based on the basic theory and considering amplitude and energy attenuation effects. Actually, the impact waves propagating along the plate to the sensor locations become significantly different in shape and frequency spectrum from the original waveform due to the plate and surrounding conditions, distance attenuation and damping loss. To show the validity of the present mass estimation algorithm, it has been applied to the mock-up impact test data and also to real plant data. The results show better performance comparing to the conventional Hertz schemes.

  • In the present research, a new bending system using a segmented vacuum chuck for Stressed Mirror Polishing (SMP) is developed. SMP is a special fabrication method for thin aspheric mirrors, where simple flat or spherical fabrication is applied while a mirror blank is deflected. Since a mirror blank is usually glued to a bending fixture in the conventional SMP process, there are drawbacks such as long curing time, inconvenience of mirror replacement, risk of mirror breakage, and stress concentration near the glued area. To resolve the drawbacks, a new bending system is designed to effectively hold a mirror blank by vacuum. For the developed bending system, the optimal bending load to achieve the designated mirror deflection is found by finite element analysis and an optimization algorithm. With the measurement results of the deflected mirror surfaces with the optimal bending loads, the feasibility of the developed bending system is investigated. As a result, it is shown that the bending system is appropriate for the SMP process.

  • In this paper, we present an algorithm for the analysis of poses while playing table-tennis using action recognition. We use Kinect as the 3D sensor and 3D skeleton data provided by Kinect for further processing. We adopt a spherical coordinate system and feature selected using k-means clustering. We automatically detect the starting and ending frame and discriminate the action of table-tennis into two groups of forehand and backhand swing. Each swing is modeled using HMM(Hidden Markov Model) and we used a dataset composed of 200 sequences from two players. We can discriminate two types of table tennis swing in real-time. Also, it can provide analysis according to similarities found in good poses.

  • A smartphone has very limited input methods regardless of its various functions. In this respect, it is one alternative that sensor motion recognition can make intuitive and various user interface. In this paper, we recognize user's motion using acceleration sensor, magnetic field sensor, and gyro sensor in smartphone. We try to reduce sensing error by gradient descent algorithm because in single sensor it is hard to obtain correct data. And we apply vector quantization by conversion of rotation displacement to spherical coordinate system for elevated recognition rate and recognition of small motion. After vector quantization process, we recognize motion using HMM(Hidden Markov Model).

  • 카타디옵트릭 카메라는 거울을 이용하여 $360^{\circ}$의 3차원 이미지를 한 장에 촬영할 수 있는 이미지 시스템이다. 본 논문에서는 이 시스템을 사용할 때에 발생하는 이미지 왜곡 문제를 해결하는 구형투영 알고리즘을 제안한다. 흔히 사용하는 실린더형 알고리즘의 경우 계산은 비교적 간단하지만, 거울의 바로 아래에 있는 물체의 경우 전체적인 영상을 볼 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서 사용한 카메라는 포물면 거울을 사용한 카타디옵트릭 카메라이며, 쌍곡면거울을 사용한 카메라에 대해서도 이론적으로 공식을 유도하였다.
