The bow wave breaking and the viscous interaction of stern wave are studied by simulating the free-surface flows. The Navier-Stokes equation is solved by a finite difference method in which the body-fitted coordinate system, the wall function and the triple-grid system are invoked. After validation, the calculations are extended to turbulent flows. The wave elevation at the Reynolds number of $10^4$ is much less than that at $10^6$ although the Froude number is the same. The numerical appearance of the sub-breaking waves is qualitatively supported by experimental observation. They are also applied to study the stern flow of S-103 for which extensive experimental data are available. Although the interaction between separation and the stern wave generation are not yet clear, the effects of the bow wave on the development of the boundary layer flows are concluded to be significant.

Background: People's activities have been restricted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These changes in activity patterns may lead to a decrease in fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) concentrations. Additionally, the level of population exposure to PM_2.5 may be changed. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the impact of population movement and meteorological factors on the distribution of PM_2.5 concentrations before and after the outbreak of COVID-19. Methods: The study area was Guro-gu in Seoul. The research period was selected as January to March 2020, a period of significant population movement changes caused by COVID-19. The evaluation of the dynamic population was conducted by calculating the absolute difference in population numbers between consecutive hours and comparing them to determine the daily average. Ambient PM_2.5 concentrations were estimated for each grid using ordinary kriging in Python. For the population exposure assessment, the population-weighted average concentration was calculated by determining the indoor to outdoor population for each grid and applying the indoor to outdoor ratio to the ambient PM_2.5 concentration. To assess the factors influencing changes in the ambient PM_2.5 concentration, a statistical analysis was conducted, incorporating population mobility and meteorological factors. Results: Through statistical analysis, the correlation between ambient PM_2.5 concentration and population movement was positive on both weekends and weekdays (r=0.71, r=0.266). The results confirmed that most of the relationships were positive, suggesting that a decrease in human activity can lead to a decrease in PM_2.5 concentrations. In addition, when population-weighted concentration averages were calculated and the exposure level of the population group was compared before and after the COVID-19 outbreak, the proportion of people exceeding the air quality standard decreased by approximately 15.5%. Conclusions: Human activities can impact ambient concentrations of PM_2.5, potentially altering the levels of PM_2.5 exposure in the population.

Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is a Lagrangian computational fluid dynamics method that has been widely used in the analysis of physical phenomena characterized by large deformation or multi-phase flow analysis, including free surface. Despite the recent implementation of eddy-viscosity models in SPH methodology, sophisticated turbulent analysis using Lagrangian methodology has been limited due to the lack of computational performance and numerical consistency. In this study, we implement the standard and dynamic Smagorinsky model and dynamic Vreman model as sub-particle scale models based on a weakly compressible SPH solver. The large eddy simulation method is numerically identical to the spatial discretization method of smoothed particle dynamics, enabling the intuitive implementation of the turbulence model. Furthermore, there is no additional filtering process required for physical variables since the sub-grid scale filtering is inherently processed in the kernel interpolation. We simulate lid-driven flow under transition and turbulent conditions as a benchmark. The simulation results show that the dynamic Vreman model produces consistent results with experimental and numerical research regarding Reynolds averaged physical quantities and flow structure. Spectral analysis also confirms that it is possible to analyze turbulent eddies with a smaller length scale using the dynamic Vreman model with the same particle size.

포항지진(M_L=5.4) 시 발생한 액상화 현상은 국민들에게 지진으로 유발되는 액상화의 위험성을 새롭게 각인시켰고, 이에 대한 대비책으로 액상화 위험지도의 관심이 높아지고 있다. 현재 행정안전부가 보유하고 있는 액상화 위험지도는 2014년 제작된 것으로 전국 100,000개 이상의 시추 자료를 토대로 지하수위 0m인 조건으로 지반조건별 증폭계수를 사용하였으며 시추정보가 없는 지역은 보간법을 이용하여 2km × 2km 격자형식으로 제작된 것이 특징이다. 이러한 가운데, 2018년 행정안전부는 내진설계 공통기준의 새로운 지반분류법과 증폭계수를 공표하였다. 따라서 개정된 행정안전부의 증폭계수를 반영한 액상화 위험지도의 재작성이 필요하다. 본 연구는 내진설계 공통기준 개정 전·후 두 개의 기준으로 전 국토를 대상으로 지반분류를 수행하여 변동성을 분석하였으며, 지반조건별 증폭계수를 적용한 액상화 평가결과를 부산시 강서구를 대상으로 수행하였다. 이때 재현주기 500년과 1,000년에 해당하는 지반가속도를 적용하였으며 우리나라 평균 지하수위인 5m와 극한 조건인 0m로 구분하여 액상화 위험도를 평가하였다. 액상화 위험지도는 기존의 2km × 2km보다 높은 해상도를 확보하기 위해 500m × 500m 격자를 생성하여 위험지도를 작성하였다. 연구결과, 기존 지반분류 기준을 통해 S_C, S_D 지반으로 분류되었던 지반상태가 개정된 지반분류 기준을 통해 S₂, S₃, S₄로 재분류되었다. 재현주기 500년과 1,000년으로 액상화 평가를 수행한 결과 개정 전 지반증폭계수 적용한 LPI가 상대적으로 과대평가되는 결과를 도출하였다. 본 연구결과는 증폭계수를 이용하는 광역지역 액상화 위험지도 작성의 근간인 액상화 평가에 큰 영향을 미치는 요소로써 향후 광역지역 액상화 위험지도 작성의 경우 반드시 고려될 사항으로 판단된다

최근, 국·내외적으로 CO₂배출의 저감을 위한 기술적인 방안 중 하나로 도서지역의 마이크로그리드에 기 설치된 디젤발전기의 가동률을 줄이고 신재생에너지전원의 비중을 높여 운용하고 있는 실정이다. 특히, 국내에서는 가파도, 가사도, 울릉도 등의 도서지역에 디젤발전기와 신재생에너지, 전기저장장치로 구성된 독립형 마이크로그리드의 실증 및 보급 사업이 활발하게 진행되고 있으며, 기존의 디젤발전기 대신 정전압, 정주파수(constant voltage constant frequency, CVCF) 기능을 가진 CVCF 인버터 및 CVCF 인버터용 배터리를 도입하여 마이크로그리드를 안정적으로 운용하는 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 그러나, CVCF 인버터 기반 마이크로그리드의 정상상태 운용특성에 있어서, 출력이 불안정한 태양광전원과 풍력발전과 같은 신재생에너지전원이 계통에 연계되면서 전력품질에 많은 문제가 발생하고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 신재생에너지전원과 전기저장장치 연계에 따른 마이크로그리드의 운용특성을 분석하기 위하여, PSCAD/EMTDC를 이용하여 30kW급 마이크로그리드 시스템을 모델링하고, 이를 바탕으로 마이크로그리드 시험장치를 구현한다. 30kW급 마이크로그리드 시스템을 바탕으로 시뮬레이션 및 시험을 수행한 결과, 제안한 방법이 CVCF 인버터 기반의 마이크로그리드 시스템에서 저전압, 과전압 및 불평형 문제를 개선하는 데 유용함을 확인하였다.

The machine-part group formation is to group the sets of parts having similar processing requirements into part families, and the sets of machines needed to process a particular part family into machine cells using grid computing. It forms machine cells from the machine-part incidence matrix by means of Self-Organizing Maps(SOM) whose output layer is one-dimension and the number of output nodes is the twice as many as the number of input nodes in order to spread out the machine vectors. It generates machine-part group which are assigned to machine cells by means of the number of bottleneck machine with processing part. The proposed algorithm was tested on well-known machine-part grouping problems. The results of this computational study demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm.

To be integrated into the IEC 61970-based K-Grid, application of open communication protocol and sub-system modeling to major nodes is needed. In this paper, a module which links load nodes in customers to CIM based on psXML/oBIX, one of open protocols, was developed and data modeling and communication protocols of IEC 61850-7-42 based DER and ESS which apply the module to the customers who have DER and ESS were designed. Also the XML-based distributed database middleware was designed. The proposed modeling and protocols were applied to the building in which commercial DER products and the effectiveness of the proposed data modeling and the communication protocol were evaluated.

The application of Large Eddy Simulation (LES) in a curvilinear coordinate system to the flow around a square cylinder is presented. In order to obtain sufficient resolution near the side of the cylinder, we use an O-type grid. Even with a curvilinear coordinate system, it is difficult to avoid the numerical oscillation arising in high-Reynolds-number flows past a bluff body, without using an extremely fine grid used. An upwind scheme has the effect of removing the numerical oscillations, but, it is accompanied by numerical dissipation that is a kind of an additional sub-grid scale effect. Firstly, we investigate the effect of numerical dissipation on the computational results in a case where turbulent dissipation is removed in order to clarify the differences between the effect of numerical dissipation. Next, the applicability and the limitations of the present method, which combine the dynamic SGS model with acceptable numerical dissipation, are discussed.

This paper presents the numerical analysis results of the viscous flow for a full ship model. The mass and momentum conservation equations are used for governing equations, and the flow field is discretized by the Finite-Volume Method for the numerical calculation. An algebraic grid and elliptic grid generation techniques are adopted for generation of the body-fitted coordinates system, which is suitable to ship's hull forms. Time-marching procedure is used to solve the three-dimensional unsteady problem, where the convection terms are approximated by the QUICK scheme and the 2nd-order central differencing scheme is used for other spatial derivatives. A Sub-Grid Scale turbulence model is used to approximate the turbulence, and the wall function is used at the body surface. Pressure and velocity fields are calculated by the simultaneous iteration method. Numerical calculations were accomplished for the Crude Oil Tanker(DWT 95,000tons, Cb=0.805) model. Calculation results are compared to the experimental results and show good agreements.

The present experimental study investigates single-phase heat transfer coefficients downstream of support grid in $6{\times}6$ rod bundles. Support grid with split mixing vanes enhance heat transfer in rod bundles by generating it make turbulence. But this turbulence is confined to short distance. Support grid with LSVF mixing vanes enhanced heat transfer to longer distance. The corresponding Reynolds number investigated in the present study is Re=30,000. The heat transfer coefficients are measured using heated and unheated copper sensor.
