In the design of mixed type breakwater, the most important factor to be considered is the wave pressure. In particular, the standing wave pressure has a significant effect on the vertical wall breakwater or mixed type breakwater. Many wave pressure formulas were developed and the Goda's formula［1］ was very frequently used among them by the coastal engineers due to its simplicity and accuracy. (omitted)

Cylindrical monopole antenna is one of most promising candidates for multi-band applications such as PCS, WLAN, DMB, and UWB wireless services. In this research, we demonstrate that there exist two types of current distributions according to the exciting frequency in a double band cylindrical monopole antenna, in which double resonance is achieved by adjusting the coupling structure of the antenna base. The operating modes of current distributions are identified from CST software simulations, the standing wave mode in a lower band and the traveling wave mode in a higher band. Also it is noticed that the mode behavior is quite similar to a helical antenna, a standing-wave (resonance) mode and a traveling-wave (non-resonance) mode according to the electrical dimensions of antenna. The effective ranges for operating modes and design formulas of the double band antenna are derived from simulation and measured results.

Cylindrical monopole antenna is one of most promising candidates for multi-band applications such as PCS, WLAN, DMB, and UWB wireless services. In this research, we analyze the current distributions of operating modes for a cylindrical double-resonant monopole antenna. Two modes, the standing wave mode in a lower band and the traveling wave mode in a higher band, are identified from CST software simulations. Finally, design formulas are derived form the simulation results.

To calculate the wave pressure acting on coastal structures under the design wave condition, it is often necessary to numerically reproduce the big standing wave profiles close to wave breaking condition. For this, the governing equation and all nonlinear terms occurring in boundary conditions should be effectively considered in the numerical wave profile. In particular, the velocity square term in the free surface boundary condition is very important. A boundary element method is applied here to calculate the standing wave profile with the velocity square term fully treated by Newton iterative method. In order to check the validity of the method, the numerical wave profiles are compared to ones calculated by the perturbation method, the Fourier approximation method and the hydraulic experiment.

Purpose: Particle separation in solution is one of important process in a unit operation as well as in an extract preparation for biosensors. Contrary to centrifuge-type of mesh-type filter, using an ultrasonic standing wave make the filtering process continuous and free from maintenance. It is needed to investigate the characteristics of particle movement in the ultrasonic standing wave field. Methods: Through the computer simulation the effects of major design and driving parameters on the alignment characteristics of particles were investigated, and a cylindrical chamber with up-stream flow type was devised using two circular-shape PZTs on both sides of the chamber, one for transmitting ultrasonic wave and the other for just reflecting it. Then, the system performance was experimentally investigated as well. Results: The speed of a particle to reach pressure-node plane increased as the acoustic pressure and size of particle increased. The maximum allowable up-stream flow rate could be calculated as well. As expected, exact numbers of pressure-node planes were well formed at specific locations according to the wavelength of ultrasonic wave. As the driving frequency of PZT got close to its resonance frequency, the bands of particles were observed clearer, which meant the particles were trapped into narrower space. Higher excitation voltages to the PZT produced a greater acoustic force with which to trap particles in the pressure-node planes, so that the particles gathered could move upwards without disturbing their alignments even at a higher inlet flow rate. Conclusions: This research showed the feasibility of particle separation in solution in the continuous way by an ultrasonic standing wave. Further study is needed to develop a device to collect or harvest those separated particles.

We developed a new standing wave type ultrasonic linear motor that can be driven bi-directionally. The operation principle of the motor was derived in an analytical form and the detailed structure was designed by the finite element method. Based on the design, a motor sample and a driving circuit were fabricated, and validity of the structure was verified through experiments.

Using a 3-D numerical scheme (LES-WASS-3D) that considered wave-structure-sandy seabed interactions in a 3-D wave field, we analyzed the wave reflection and hydraulic characteristics inside a slit caisson with two chambers in a 3-D oblique wave field. To verify the 3-D numerical analysis method suggested in this study, we compared the numerical results with existing experimental results and found good agreement. The numerical analysis revealed that a standing wave field is generated on the front side of the slit caisson due to the effect of wave reflection. For incident waves propagating perpendicular to the slit caisson, the nodes and anti-nodes of the standing wave are apparent and symmetrical. However, in an oblique wave field, as the incident wave angle decreases, the nodes and anti-nodes of the standing wave become ambiguous and unsymmetrical. It was also found that the wave reflection coefficient decreases as the incident wave angle decreases. It can be pointed out that as the incident wave angle decreases, the turbulent intensity in the chamber increases. Thereby, the increased wave energy dissipation by the increased turbulent intensity reduces the rate of wave reflection. In addition, a strong turbulent intensity generally occurs in the first chamber.

The conventional ultrasonic linear motors developed so far utilize a standing wave and are of a pi-type or a hybrid transducer type structure. Traveling wave type bi-direction linear motors have not been developed yet. This paper describes design of a new bi-directional ultrasonic linear motor working by means of a traveling wave. With the finite element method we design and verify validity of the new structure. And we determine its optimal structure size of design variables material and boundary conditions for proper generation of the traveling wave.

SMB (simulated moving bed) is a continuous chromatographic process by shifting periodically port position. Binary of mixture, Blue dextran and Orange G, was separated by SMB. These components have unique color individually, that is, Blue dextran is blue and Orange G is orange. It is easy to understand SMB process by observing the shift of color changes in SMB. These components was not adsorbed to stationary phase and isolated by difference of size exclusion factor. Mass transfer coefficient was determined by single pulse test under several flow rate conditions. Operation condition was obtained by standing wave theory and optimized for high purities in extract and raffinate streams. Experiment was performed in open loop 4 zone (2-2-2-2) SMB. There are several advantages in open loop SMB, where extract is product for high purity. It is also easy to control flow rate and monitor experimental state during operation. Experimental, extract and raffinate history is well fitted with simulation results, however, column concentration profile is a little different from simulation results. Purities were 99.5％ for extract and 98.9％ for raffinate and extract and raffinate yields were obtained as 98.9％ and 99.4％ respectively.

We designed wideband HTS antennas which consists of two triangle -radiation patches using a $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-X}$ (YBCO) superconducting thin film. The major limitation of high-Tc superconducting (HTS) microstrip antennas is the narrow bandwidth due to the high Q and thin substrate. Defining bandwidth as the frequency range over which standing wave ratio (SWR) 2:1 or less, HTS antenna bandwidths are typically 0.85 % to 1.1 %. Thus considerable effort has been focused on developing antennas for broadband operation. To calculate input impedance and design of the broadband HTS antennas a moment method technique was used. The HTS antenna fabricated in this work was designed for K-band, which is useful band for satellite to satellite communications. The bandwidth obtained was a significant 6.7 % and the other measured performance of our HTS antenna, including the bandwidth, radiation Pattern, efficiency, standing wave ratio (SWR) and return losses was reported.
