In this study, a newly enhanced Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) model which incorporates mooring lines was used to simulate a floating structure. The model has two parts: a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model and a mooring model. The open-source CFD OpenFOAM® v1712 toolbox was used in the present study, and the convergence criteria and relaxation method were added to the computational procedure used for the OpenFOAM multiphase flow solver, interDyMFoam. A newly enhanced, tightly coupled solver, CoupledinterDyMFoam, was used to decrease the artificial added mass effect, and the results were validated through a series of benchmark cases. The mooring model, based on the finite element method, was established in MATLAB® and was validated against a benchmark analytical elastic catenary solution and numerical results. Finally, a model which simulates a floating structure with mooring lines was successfully constructed by connecting the mooring model to CoupledinterDyMFoam.

A new computer system for the stress analysis and design of piping network has been devlo-ped in this study. For the stress analysis, the system utilizes the finite element technique in which the frontal technique is used as the equation solver. The element library of the system has (1) Pipe Element (2) Beam Element, (3) Hanger Element and (4) Spring Element which should be sufficient to model the entire piping system including flexible supports, joints, piping rack and hangers. Based on the element stresses, code check has been performed and the safety factor for each element is calculated.

최근, 급속한 컴퓨터 하드웨어의 성능 향상과 전산유체역학 분야의 이론적 발전으로, 고차 정확도의 수치기법들이 계산수리학 분야에 적용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 1차원 천수방정식에 대한 수치 해법으로 TVD Runge-Kutta 불연속 갤러킨(RKDG) 유한요소법을 적용하였다. 대표적인 천이류(transcritical flow)의 예로 순간적인 댐 붕괴에 의한 댐 붕괴류(dam-break flow) 흐름과 지형변화에 의한 천이류를 모의하였다. 리만(Riemann) 근사해법으로 로컬 Lax-Friedrichs (LLF), Roe, HLL 흐름률(flux) 기법을 사용하였고, 불필요한 진동을 제거하기 위하여, 기울기 제한자로서 MUSCL 제한자를 사용하였다. 개발된 모델은 1차원 댐 붕괴류와 천이류에 적용하였다. 수치해석 결과는 해석해, 수리실험 결과와 비교하였다.

본 논문에서는 대규모 3차원 구조해석에 필요한 병렬 유한요소해석을 위한 영역분할법의 적용에 대해 묘사하였다. 영역분할법을 사용한 병렬 유한요소법 시스템을 개발하였다. 절점 생성시, 절점들간의 거리가 특정절점에서의 공간함수와 같아지면 절점이 생성되어 진다. 이 절점공간함수는 퍼지지식처리에 의해 조절되어 진다. 기본적인 요소생성은 데로우니 삼각화 기법을 적용하였다. 자동요소생성 시스템을 이용한 영역분할법은 3차원 해석에 큰 도움이 된다. 공간함수와 유사하게 절점들간의 유한요소해석을 위한 병렬 수치 알고리즘으로서 영역분할법을 전체의 해석영역을 완전히 여러 개의 작은 영역으로 겹치지 않게 나누는 공역구배인 반복적 솔버와 결합시켰다. 개발된 시스템의 효용성에 대한 성능을 몇 가지 예를 통해 제시하였다.

In this paper a general approach for studying the motion of a cantilever beam interacting with a 2D fluid flow is presented. The fluid is solved by a general purpose commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) package (FLUENT 6.2), while the structure is managed by means of a dedicated finite element method solver, coded in FLUENT as a user-defined function (UDF). A weak fluid structure interaction coupling scheme is adopted exchanging information at the end of each time step. An arbitrary cantilever beam can be introduced in the CFD mesh with its wetted boundaries specified; the cantilever can also interact with specified rigid and flexible walls through use of a non-linear contact algorithm. After a brief review of relevant scientific contributions, some test cases and application examples are presented.

In order to evaluate the integrity of nuclear power plant components, the analysis based on fracture mechanics is crucial. For this purpose, finite element method is popularly used to obtain J-integral. However, it is time consuming to design the finite element model of a cracked structure. Also, the J-integral should be verified by alternative methods since it may differ depending on the calculation method. The objective of this paper is to develop a three-dimensional elastic-plastic J-integral analysis system which is named as EPAS program. The EPAS program consists of an automatic mesh generator for a through-wall crack and a surface crack, a solver based on ABAQUS program, and a J-integral calculation program which provides DI (Domain Integral) and EDI (Equivalent Domain Integral) based J-integral calculation. Using the EPAS program, an optimized finite element model for a cracked structure can be generated and corresponding J-integral can be obtained subsequently.

A 3D FEM (Finite Element Method) based Helmholtz solver has been commonly used to characterize fundamental acoustic behavior and investigate dynamic instability features in many combustion systems. In this approach, a geometrical simplification of the target system has been generally made in order to reduce computational time and cost because a real combustor and fuel nozzle have a very complicated flow passage. The feasibility of these simplifications is quantitatively investigated in a small aero gas turbine nozzle in term of acoustic characteristics. It is found that the simplification in a nozzle geometry during the 3D FEM analysis process has no great influence on the acoustic modeling results, while the calculation complexity can be improved for a similar modeling accuracy.

A parallel approach using a network of engineering workstations is presented for the efficient computation in the elastoplastic analysis of strip rolling process. The domain decomposition method coupled with the frontal solver for elimination of internal degrees of freedom in each subdomain is used. PVM is used for message passing and synchronization between processors. A 2-D plane strain problem and the strip rolling process are analyzed to demonstrate the performance of the algorithm and factors that have a great effect on efficiency are discussed. In spite of much communication time on the network the result illustrates the advantages of this parallel algorithm over its corresponding sequential algorithm.

The moment-of-fluid (MOF) method is a new volume-tracking method that accurately treats evolving material interfaces. The MOF method uses moment data, namely the material volume fraction, as well as the centroid, for a more accurate representation of the material configuration, interfaces and concomitant volume advection. In this paper, unstructured mesh extension of the MOF method is to be presented. The MOF method is coupled with a stabilized finite element incompressible Navier-Stokes solver for two materials. The effectiveness of the MOF method is demonstrated with a free-surface dam-break problem.
