This study presents a new gridless finite difference method for solving elastic crack problems. The method constructs the Taylor expansion based on the MLS(Moving Least Squares) method and effectively calculates the approximation and its derivatives without differentiation process. Since no connectivity between nodes is required, the modeling of discontinuity embedded in the domain is very convenient and discontinuity effect due to crack is naturally implemented in the construction of difference equations. Direct discretization of the governing partial differential equations makes solution process faster than other numerical schemes using numerical integration. Numerical results for mode I and II crack problems demonstrates that the proposed method accurately and efficiently evaluates the stress intensity factors.

An integral crank driven Stirling cryocooler is solidly based on concepts of direct IR detector mounting on the cryocooler's cold finger, and the integral construction of the cryocooler and Dewar envelope. Performance factors of the cryocooler depend on operating conditions of the cryocooler such as a cyclic mean pressure of the working fluid, a rotational speed of driving mechanism, a thermal environment, a targeted operation temperature and etc.. At given charging condition of helium gas, the cyclic mean pressure of helium gas in the cryocooler changes with temperatures of the cold end and the environment. In this study, effects of the cyclic mean pressure of helium gas on performances of the Stirling cryocooler were investigated by numerical analyses using the Sage software. The simulation model takes into account thermodynamic losses due to an inefficiency of regenerator, a pressure drop, a shuttle heat transfer and solid conductions. Simulations are performed for the performance variation according to the cyclic mean pressure induced by the temperature of the cold end and the environment. This paper presents P-V works in the compression and expansion space, cooling capacity, contribution of losses in the expansion space.

LNG demand has been rapidly increasing in Korea for a variety of reasons including stable supply, non-polluting, and high combustion efficiency characteristics. As a result the construction and expansion of LNG storage facilities have been continuing at a vigorous pace. Korea Gas Corp. (KOGAS) has developed the design technology of the LNG storage tank. One of the most important structural core element of the LNG storage tank is the membrane, made by stainless steel. The membrane to be applied inside of LNG storage tank is provided with corrugations to absorb thermal contraction and expansion caused by LNG temperature. Analytical results have been performed to investigate the strength of the membrane and the reaction farce at the anchor point. Experimental studies are performed to investigate the deformation and strength of the membrane which is designed by Kogas. All experiments are conducted on the basis of RPIS, and we found the results are fully satisfied with the RPIS.

Mainly, Floating Breakwaters (FBs) have been constructed in many coastal regions due to the advantages of the coastal environment and construction cost. In general, the FB becomes fixed or its width broadened because the movement of the FB comes to be large and its the wave control function lower for the long period incident waves. This study discusses the wave control function of two-rowed Fixed Floating Breakwater (FFBs) that have narrower width than that of the one-rowed FFB by using numerical approach. Boundary Element Method (BEM) based on the Green formula and Eigenfunction Expansion Method (EEM) are applied to evaluate the three-dimensional wave transformation near the wave fields of two-rowed FFBs. The validity of the present study is confirmed by comparing it with the results of Ijima et al. (1974) and Yoshida et al. (1992) for the one-rowed Fixed Floating Structure. It is revealed that the wave control function of two-rowed FFBs is more effective than that of the one-rowed FFB.

Based on the eigenfunction expansion method, the interaction between monochromatic waves and a partially immersed slotted plate with a back wall has been investigated. Analytical results show that the reflection coefficients by a partially immersed slotted plate depend on the porosity, immersed depth, chamber width, incidence angle and wave frequency. It is found that the reflection coefficient has minimum value within entire frequency range when the porosity has optimal value 0.1. Comparison between the analytical results and the experimental results(Zhu,2001) of reflection coefficients is made for various chamber widths, immersed depths and wave periods with good agreement. The present analytic method can account adequately for energy dissipation caused by flow separation behind a slotted plate and provide the design informations for the construction of slit caisson breakwater.

This study categorizes the formative aspects of dress and their implications according to the extent of revealing or concealing corporeality based on body perceptions. By considering the notion of dress as bodily practice to be a theoretical and methodological framework, this study combines a literature survey and case analysis to analyze and classify the forms of women's dress since the 1920s when contemporary fashion took hold. As examined in this study, the typology of dress was categorized as body-consciousness, deformation, transformation, and formlessness. Body-consciousness that is achieved through tailoring, bias cutting, and stretchy fabric displays corporeality focusing on the structure and function of the body as an internalized corset. Deformations in dress are categorized into two different subcategories. One is the expansion or reduction of bodily features based on the vertical or horizontal grids of the body, which visualizes the anachronistic restraint of the body through an innerwear as outerwear strategy. The other is exaggerations of the bodily features irrelevant to the grid, which break from the limitations and constraints of the body as well as traditional notions of the body. Transformations of the body refer to as follows. First, the deconstruction and restructuring of the body that deconstruct the stereotypes in garment construction. Second, the abstraction of the body that emphasizes the geometrical and architectural shapes. Third, transformable designs which pursue the expansion and multiplicity of function. Formlessness in dress denies the perception of three-dimensionality of the body through the planarization of the body.

In the current train operation system, large scaled stations like Cheongnyangni and Yongsan are not remote controlled from the central operator but manually by local operator. It is because there are so many entering and exit of trains between depot and mainline which are operating through the large scaled stations and it is very effective to traffic flow on the mainline. Therefore, Kyong Bong Technology Co., Ltd. (KBTech) and Korea Railway Research Institute (KRRI) are continuing the research and development to import 'Autonomous Decentralized System (ADS)'as part of a new train operation control system which is a national policy project of MOCT (Ministry Of Construction & Transportation). The concept of the 'Autonomous Decentralized System (ADS)' has born in 1970's in Japan by the influences of molecular biology. The special features of ADS are being a system that able to do the online expansion, online maintenance and fault tolerance. This thesis introduces the concept of technology of ADS and also describes the system designing & development to apply with large scaled stations.

Seoul Metro continuously converted the standard rail into continuous welded rail since the later part of 1990's, and currently, most of the sectors of the Seoul Metro are continuous welded rails. As the continuous welded rail is inhibited by the contraction and expansion force of the rail as well as rail-bed, this force is stored as the internal stress of the rail with the exception of portion of the both ends of the continuous welded rail. If the contraction and expansion of the rail is restricted, the internal stress, that is, the force in the direction of the axis, is proportional to the cross-sectional area of the rail. Therefore, with regards to the temperature changes, the internal stress changes in accordance with the type of rail, bolting apparatus, railroad tie and rail-bed. As such, the rail temperature becomes important data in securing the gap at the adjoining section of the rail in the standard rail section, and to determine the setting temperature for the continuous welded rail. In addition, it becomes basic data for maintenance of the track. Accordingly, this thesis introduces cases of installation of rail temperature detector in order to prevent and manage track defectiveness due to increase in rail temperature, and to utilize as basic data at the time of various construction and maintenance. Furthermore, this thesis aims to assist maintenance of track through systematic temperature management in the future by looking into means of its utilization.
