The two-dimensional finite difference time domain algorithm is used to numerically reconstruct the electron density profile in O-mode ultrashort pulse reflectometry. A Gaussian pulse is employed as the source of a probing electromagnetic wave. The Gaussian pulse duration is chosen in such a manner as to have its frequency spectrum cover the whole range of the plasma frequency. By using a number of numerical band-pass filters, it is possible to compute the time delays of the frequency components of the reflected signal from the plasma. The electron density profile is reconstructed by substituting the time delays into the Abel integral equation. As a result of simulation, the reconstructed electron density profile agrees well with the assumed profile.

본 연구에서는 물리광학법 (physical optics)과 푸리에 변환 (Fourier transform)을 바탕으로 잠수함과 같이 크고 형상이 복잡한 수중표적의 시간영역 음파 후방산란 신호를 모의하기 위한 수치해석방법을 구현하였다. 키르코프-헬름홀쯔 적분식 (Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral equation)에 키르코프 근사이론 (Kirchhoff approximation)을 적용하여 유도한 물리광학법을 바탕으로 수중표적의 후방산란 음파에 대한 주파수 응답을 계산하였으며, 시간영역 신호모의를 위해 구해진 주파수응답에 고속 역푸리에 변환 (inverse fast Fourier transform)을 취하였다. 입사 음파의 직접조사 면적을 산정하기 위한 적응 삼각형 빔 방법과 다중반사 효과를 고려하기 위한 가상면 개념을 도입하였다. 평면 음파가 정사각형 평판에 수직으로 입사하는 경우에 대한 수치해석 결과를 시간영역 물리광학법에 근거한 해석해와 비교하여 본 연구에서 구현한 수치해석방법의 정확성을 검증하였으며, 반구형 원통모델에 대한 수치모의 결과를 측정결과와 비교하여 본 연구방법이 거울반사 (specular reflection) 효과가 우세한 경우에 유효한 해를 제공할 수 있으나 작은 표적에 대해서는 오차를 줄 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한, 이상화된 잠수함 모델에 대한 수치해석을 통해 실제 수중표적에 대한 시간영역 후방산란 해석으로의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

The dynamic and structural responses of a 1000-m long circular submerged floating tunnel (SFT) with both ends fixed under survival irregular-wave excitations are investigated. The floater-mooring nonlinear and elastic coupled dynamics are modeled by a time-domain numerical simulation program, OrcaFlex. Two configurations of mooring lines i.e., vertical mooring (VM) and inclined mooring (IM), and four different buoyancy-weight ratios (BWRs) are selected to compare their global performances. The result of modal analysis is included to investigate the role of the respective natural frequencies and elastic modes. The effects of various submergence depths are also checked. The envelopes of the maximum/minimum horizontal and vertical responses, accelerations, mooring tensions, and shear forces/bending moments of the entire SFT along the longitudinal direction are obtained. In addition, at the mid-section, the time series and the corresponding spectra of those parameters are also presented and analyzed. The pros and cons of the two mooring shapes and high or low BWR values are systematically analyzed and discussed. It is demonstrated that the time-domain numerical simulation of the real system including nonlinear hydro-elastic dynamics coupled with nonlinear mooring dynamics is a good method to determine various design parameters.

Eco-friendly and sustainable seaweed biomass energy have been under the spotlight as the future of renewable energy. However, seaweed culture is primarily conducted inshore, with the research on offshore culture still in an early stage. For massive biomass production, a systematic engineering approach is required to devise offshore seaweed culture facilities rather than the conventional empirical ones. To establish the fundamental behavior of seaweed culture facilities, the dynamic characteristics of a seaweed culture facility were analyzed in the study. For this purpose, numerical analyses of the seaweed culture facility (a frame type) were carried out by using the hydrodynamic simulation program ANSYS-AQWA. For the analysis, environmental loads were considered using the wave spectra and co-linear current; mooring variables were selected as parameters; and time domain analyses were carried out to acquire the time series responses and eventually the dynamic characteristics. Finally, the mooring performance was evaluated. It was found that the motion could be controlled by adjusting the buoyancy and mooring slope.

숏크리트는 터널에서 적용되는 요요한 주지보재이다. 숏크리트의 품질평가는 터널의 안전한 시공과 효과적인 운영을 위한 핵심 요소이다. 숏크리트가 암반에 적절히 타설되었다 하더라도, 막장 및 벤치부에서의 발파, 수축, 지반의 변형 등으로 인해 숏크리트 균열발생 및 배면공동 등의 문제를 야기한다. 본 논문에서는 비파괴 시험인 충격 반항 기법(Impact-Echo) 및 지하레이다 탐사(GPR)를 이용하여 경임에 타설된 숏크리트 배면의 접착상태를 평가하고자 하였다. 기존의 수치해석 연구에 대한 검증과 더불어 현장 적용성에 대한 검토를 위해 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 숏크리트의 접착상태는 완전 접착, 접착력 상실 및 공동 조건으로 구분할 수 있다. 실내 실대형 시험체에 이 세 가지 숏크리트 접착상태를 조사하였다. 충격반향시험으로부터 획득된 신호는 시간영역, 주파수 영역, 및 시간-주파수 영역에서 각각 분석되었다. 능동적 신호 처리 기법인 Short-Time Fourier Transform(STFT)을 이용하여 숏크리트 배면의 접착상태를 효과적으로 예측할 수 있었으며, 그 결과는 기존의 수치해석 연구로부터 획득한 신호특성과 잘 부합하였다. 숏크리트 배면의 접착상태가 불량할수록 다음과 같은 특징들을 나타낸다. 즉, 주파수 영역에서 자기스펙트럼밀도가 커지며, 기하학적 감쇠비는 감소하고, 시간-주파수 영역에서 윤곽선은 시간축에 평행한 형상을 나타내며, 숏크리트 두께가 얇을수록 그 공진시간이 길어진다. 또한 본 연구에서 제시한 상관계수를 이용하여 숏크리트의 접착상태를 정량적으로 평가할 수 있다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 숏크리트의 접착상태를 평가할 수 있는 평가 기법 및 평가 기준을 제안하였다.

This paper aims to numerically estimate the dynamic ice load on a conical structure. The Discrete Element Method (DEM) is employed to model the level ice as the assembly of numerous spherical particles. To mimic the realistic fracture mechanism of ice, the parallel bonding method is introduced. Cases with four different ice drifting velocities are considered in time domain. For validation, the statistics of time-varying ice forces and their frequencies obtained by numerical simulations are extensively compared against the physical model-test results. Ice properties are directly adopted from the targeted experimental test set up. The additional parameters for DEM simulations are systematically determined by a numerical three-point bending test. The findings reveal that the numerical simulation estimates the dynamic ice force in a reasonably acceptable range and its results agree well with experimental data.

A new technique for numerical calculation of viscoelastic flow based on the combination of Neural Net-works (NN) and Brownian Dynamics simulation or Stochastic Simulation Technique (SST) is presented in this paper. This method uses a "universal approximator" based on neural network methodology in combination with the kinetic theory of polymeric liquid in which the stress is computed from the molecular configuration rather than from closed form constitutive equations. Thus the new method obviates not only the need for a rheological constitutive equation to describe the fluid (as in the original Calculation Of Non-Newtonian Flows: Finite Elements St Stochastic Simulation Techniques (CONNFFESSIT) idea) but also any kind of finite element-type discretisation of the domain and its boundary for numerical solution of the governing PDE's. As an illustration of the method, the time development of the planar Couette flow is studied for two molecular kinetic models with finite extensibility, namely the Finitely Extensible Nonlinear Elastic (FENE) and FENE-Peterlin (FENE-P) models.P) models.

The two-stage numerical model was used to study the relation between three-dimensional local wind model, advection/diffusion model of random walk method and second moment method on Pusan coastal area. The first stage is three dimensional time-dependent local wind model which gives the wind field and vertical dirrusion coefficient. The second stage is advection/diffusion model which uses the results of the first stage as input data. First, wind fields on Pusan coastal area for none synoptic scale wind showed typical land and sea breeze circulation, and convergence zone occured at 1200LST in northern of domain, in succession, moved northward of domain. Emissions from Sinpyeong industrial district were trasnported toward the inland by sea breeze during daytime, and reached the end part of domain about 1800LST. During nighttime, emissions return to sea by land breeze and vertical diffusion also contributes to upward transport. In order to use this model for forecast of air pollution concentration on the Pusan coastal area, it is necessary that computed value must be compared with measured value and wind fields model must also be dealt in detail.

In this paper, a Cloud Model based Fruit Fly Optimization Algorithm (CMFOA) is presented for structural damage identification, which is a global optimization algorithm inspired by the foraging behavior of fruit fly swarm. It is assumed that damage only leads to the decrease in elementary stiffness. The differences on time-domain structural acceleration data are used to construct the objective function, which transforms the damaged identification problem of a structure into an optimization problem. The effectiveness, efficiency and accuracy of the CMFOA are demonstrated by two different numerical simulation structures, including a simply supported beam and a cantilevered plate. Numerical results show that the CMFOA has a better capacity for structural damage identification than the basic Fruit Fly Optimization Algorithm (FOA) and the CMFOA is not sensitive to measurement noise.

A passive control using flaps will be an alternative solution for flutter stability and buffeting response of a long suspension bridge. This method not only enables a lightweight economic stiffening girder without an additional stiffness for aerodynamic stability but also avoid the problems from the malfunctions of control systems and energy supply system of an active control by winglets and flaps. A time domain approach for predicting the coupled flutter and buffeting response of bridge deck with flaps is investigated. First, the flutter derivatives of bridge deck and flaps are found by experiment. Next, the derivation of time domain model of self-excited forces and control forces of sectional model is reported by using the rational function approximation. Finally, the effectiveness of passive flap control is investigated by the numerical simulation. The results show that the passive control by using flaps can increase the flutter speed and decrease the buffeting response. The experiment results are matched with numerical ones.
