Hyperbolic metamaterials in which waves can only propagate through the radial direction have achieved much attention these days due to their capability of sub-wavelength resolution. In this work, the realization and optimization of hyperbolic elastic metamaterials are mainly studied. To obtain a new hyperbolic elastic metamaterial, a specially-engineered mass-spring system is introduced. Based on the mass-spring system, the hyperbolic elastic metamaterials are proposed and realized. In addition, the sub-wavelength resolution of the proposed hyperbolic elastic metamaterial is verified by ultrasonic elastic wave experiments. For the experiments, specially-designed magnetostrictive patch transducers are developed to realize two sub-wavelength elastic wave sources. Furthermore, the proposed hyperbolic elastic metamaterial is optimized to maximize its operating frequency ranges by the topology optimization method.

This paper introduces an eigenvalue method of transforming the hyperbolic partial differential equations of a particular unsteady friction water hammer model into characteristic form. This method is based on the solution of the corresponding one-dimensional Riemann problem that transforms hyperbolic quasi-linear equations into ordinary differential equations along the characteristic directions, which in this case arises as the eigenvalues of the system. A mathematical justification and generalization of the eigenvalues method is provided and this approach is compared to the traditional characteristic method.

This paper presents a method for approximation of the standard normal distribution by using hyperbolic tangent based functions. The presented approximate formula for the cumulative distribution depends on one numerical coefficient only, and its accuracy is admissible. Furthermore, in some particular cases, closed forms of inverse formulas are derived. Numerical results of the present method are compared with those of an existing method.

Mixed finite element method is developed to approxi-mate the solution of the initial-boundary value problem for a strongly nonlinear second-order hyperbolic equation in divergence form. Exis-tence and uniqueness of the approximation are proved and optimal-order $L\infty$-in-time $L^2$-in-space a priori error estimates are derived for both the scalar and vector functions approximated by the method.

This study was performed of the research for accurate prediction of consolidation settlement at initial consolidation time. In order to analysis the program is developed which is able to analysis behavior of settlement caused by gradual load increment, and simulated consolidation using whole measured settlement data and that from beginning of embankment to end of it. The former result agrees with measured data and the latter it overestimated 13% larger than measured data. It was found the time which takes to be eliminated effect of gradual step load. This method is compared with the results from Asaoka, Hyperbolic and Tan's hyperbolic method respectively Asaoka and Tan's hyperbolic methods we in good agreement with this method. But classical hyperbolic method overestimated about 32%.

A hyperbolic two-phase, two-fluid equation system developed in the previous work has been implemented in an existing nuclear safety analysis code, MARS. Although the implicit treatment of interfacial pressure force term introduced in momentum equation of the hyperbolic equation system is required to enhance the numerical stability, it is very difficult to implement in the code because it is not possible to maintain the existing numerical solution structure. As an alternative, two-step approach with stabilizer momentum equations has been selected. The results of a linear stability analysis by Von-Neumann method show the equivalent stability improvement with fully-implicit solution method. To illustrate the applicability, the new solution scheme has been implemented into the best-estimate thermal-hydraulic analysis code, MARS. This paper also includes the comparisons of the simulation results for the perturbation propagation and water faucet problems using both two-step method and the original solution scheme.

A new method for local control of arbitrary scattered data interpolation in the hyperbolic plane is developed in this paper. The issue associated with local control is very critical in the interactive in the interactive design field. Especially the suggested method in this paper could be effectively applied to the interactive shape modeling of genus-N objects, which are constructed on the hyperbolic plane. Since the effects of the changed data affects only the limited area around itself, it is more convenient for end-users to design a genus-N object interactively. Therefore, by improving the global interpolation on the hyperbolic plane where the genus-N object is constructed, this research is aiming at the development and implementation of the local interpolation on the hyperbolic plane. It is implemented using the following process. First, for localizing the interpolating functions, the hyperbolic domain is tessellated into arbitrary triangle patches and the group of adjacent triangle patches of each data point is defined as a sub-domain. On each sub-domain, a weight function is defined. Last, by blending of three weight functions on the overlapped triangles, local MQ interpolation is completed. Consequently, it is compared with the global MQ interpolation using several sample data and functions.

We consider the projectivization of Minkowski space with the analytic continuation of the hyperbolic metric and call this an extended hyperbolic space. We can measure the volume of a domain lying across the boundary of the hyperbolic space using an analytic continuation argument. In this paper we show this method can be further generalized to find the volume of a domain with smooth boundary with suitable regularity in dimension 2 and 3. We also discuss that this volume is invariant under the group of hyperbolic isometries and that this regularity condition is sharp.

In this study, the degrees of consolidation were evaluated by analyzing the long-term settlement measured at the 3 work sites with soft ground in Gyeongnam Area. The Hyperbolic, Hoshino and Asaoka method were used, which were focused on prediction of long-term settlement of land on the basis of field measurement data. And the applicability of the settlement prediction method according to the measurement periods was investigated by analyzing the degree of consolidation at the target areas after dividing the terms into early and latter parts. According to the results obtained at the early stage of consolidation, the Hyperbolic method appeared to be in the highest applicability level, which was followed by Asaoka and Hoshino method in the order of level. In the case of latter stage of consolidation, Asaoka method appeared to be in the highest applicability level, which was followed by and the Hyperbolic, Hoshino method in the order of level.
