As the economy grows and the population increases, we need to develop our coastal area and make use of it for various purposes. Specifically, investigation of the wave interactions on and around the vertical cylinders is very important in the design of the offshore or coastal structures. The nonlinear potential analysis developed so far, although very useful, has been found to be limited in application, as strong nonlinear waves generated by the interference between multilayered cylinders and wave impact forces by breaking waves can hardly be estimated. In this study, using a 3-Dimensional volume tracking method VOF(Volume of Fluid), based on Namer-Stokes equations, was developed to simulate highly nonlinear effects, such as breaking waves at the interface or complicated interference waves among structures. A numerical method for nonlinear interaction wave and vertical cylinders is newly proposed. The wave forces and wave transformations computed by the newly proposed numerical simulation method were compared to the other researcher's experimental results, and the results agree well. Based on the validation of this study, this numerical method is applied to the two vertical cylinders to discuss their nonlinear wave forces and wave transformations, according to the variations of separate distance of vertical cylinders.

In the present study. we investigated the role of fillers, alumina trihydrate (ATH) and calcined clay, on the mechanical and electrical properties of EPDM compounds. Mechanical properties and tracking resistance improved with increasing ATH fillers. whereas volume resistivity, tan$\delta$ and dielectric constant decreased when ATH was replaced by clay filler. Futhermore, it was more prominent in $90^{\circ}C$ hot water test. This was explained with polarity of ATH, and the smaller particle size of ATH filler than clay filler.

The CBTC(Communication Based Train Control) system, a recent train control system, is a wireless communication based train control system that is operated in the moving block system control by tracking trains in real time. In additioin, the system helps to increase the volume of traffic by shortening driving headways through controlling moving block system control. Furthermore, driverless modes are performed by controlling ATP(Automatic Train Protection)/ATO(Automatic Train Operation). In this paper, controllable elements in ATO driverless train control system, affecting comfortable ride, will be analysed and applied to CBTC train control system that developed by POSCO ICT. Finally, the test results of improved comfortable ride will be showed by appling the developed system to the Gyeong-san light rail transit test track.

For the tracking of three dimensional free surface motions, a method referred to as the Volume of Fluid(VOF) algorithm is extended. In order to calculate the slope of three dimensional free surface which is the most important for the advection algorithm that decides the amount of fluid from cell to cell and for the application of free surface boundary condition, a simple method utilizing two dimensional slope informations is introduced. The extended algroithm is tested by demonstrating the simulation of a propagating sinusoidal wave through the channel whose width changes abruptly.

Computation is performed to predict number density, volume fraction and size distribution of soot particles in typical operating conditions of a diesel engine. KIVA has been integrated with the CMC routine to consider turbulence/chemistry coupling and gas phase kinetics for heat release and soot precursors. The compositions of soot precursors are estimated by tracking Lagrangian particles to consider spatial inhomogeneity and differential diffusion in KIVA. The soot simulator SWEEP is employed as a postprocessing step to calculate conditional and integral quantities of soot particles.

We numerically analyzed flow characteristics of the polymer melt in the screw equipment using a proper modeling and investigated design parameters which have influence on the mixing performance as the capability of the screw equipment. We considered the non-Newtonian and non-isothermal flow in a single rotor equipment to investigate the mixing performance with respect to screw dimensions as shape parameter of the single rotor equipment and screw speed as process parameter. We used Bird-Carreau-Yasuda model as a viscous model of the polymer melt and the particle tracking method to investigate the mixing performance in the screw equipment and considered four mixing performance indexes: residence time distribution, deformation rate, total strain and particle standard deviation as a new mixing performance index. We compared these indexes to determine design parameters and object function. On basis of the analysis results, we carried out the optimal design by using the response surface method and design of experiments. In conclusion, the differences of results between the optimal value and numerical analysis are about 5.0%.

This work is concerned with the improvement of the productivity and the product quality in the polymerization reactors by using model-on-demand predictive control(MoDPC). This technique is applied to a continuous styrene polymerization reactor and a semibatch methyl methacrylate (MMA)/vinyl acetate(VAc) copolymerization reactor. The regress is constructed with the most influential variables the conversion and the jacket inlet temperature for the styrene polymerization reactor, and the free volume and the reactor temperature for the MMA/VAc copolymerization reactor through open loop operations. From the simulation results for setpoint tracking and disturbance rejection problems, it is demonstrated that the MoDPC shows ...

A general purpose program for computing 3-D flows has been extended for two-phase flows with topologically complex interfaces. The 3-D interfaces are tracked by employing a coupled level set and volume-of-fluid (CLSVOF) method which not only can calculate an interfacial curvature accurately but also can achieve mass conservation well. The program has been tested through the computations of bubbles rising in a liquid. The numerical results are found to compare well with the results reported in the literature.

Ice accretion on aircraft surface can greatly impair the aerodynamic performance of aircraft. As an alternative to the traditional Lagrangian particle tracking approach, an Eulerian-based droplet impingement and ice accretion code for air flows containing water droplets was developed A CFD solver was also developed to solve the clean airflow. The results of present method were compared with experimental data and previous icing codes such as LEWICE and FENSAP-ICE and were confirmed to show good agreement each other in qualitative and quantitative ways.

In this paper, the pneumatic service robot with a hybrid type is developed. A pneumatic has the advantage of good compliance, high payload-to-weight and payload-to-volume ratios, high speed and force capabilities. Using pneumatic actuators which have low stiffness, the service robot can guarantee safety. By suggesting a new serial-parallel hybrid type for the service robot which separates into positioning motion and orienting motion, we can achieve large workspace and high strength-to-moving-weight ratio at the same time. A sliding mode controller can be designed for tracking the desired output using the Lyapunov stability theory and structural properties of pneumatic servo systems. Through many experiments of circular trajectory, the pneumatic service robot is evaluated and verified.
