The nonlinear free-surface motions interacting with a floating body were investigated using the Moving Particle Semi-implicit (MPS) method proposed by Koshizuka and Oka [6] for incompressible flow. In the numerical method, more realistic Lagrangian moving particles were used for solving the flow field instead of the Eulerian approach with a grid system. Therefore, the convection terms and time derivatives in the Navier-Stokes equation can be calculated more directly, without any numerical diffusion, instabilities, or topological failure. The MPS method was applied to a numerical simulation of predicting the efficiency of floating-type breakwater interacting with waves.

For slope stability analysis, an alternative to the classical limit equilibrium method (LEM) of slices is the shear strength reduction method (SRM), which can be integrated into finite element analysis or finite difference analysis. Recently, probabilistic analysis of earth slopes has been very attractive because it is capable to take the soil uncertainty into account. However, the SRM is less commonly extended to probabilistic framework compared to a variety of probabilistic LEM analysis of earth slopes. To overcome some limitations that hinder the development of probabilistic SRM stability analysis, a new procedure based on recursive algorithm FORM with sensitivity analysis in the space of original variables is proposed. It can be used to deal with correlated non-normal variables subjected to implicit limit state surface. Using the proposed approach, a probabilistic finite element analysis of the stability of an existing earth dam is carried out in this paper.

Laser scanned lidar data record 3D surface information in detail. Exploring valuable spatial information from lidar data is a prerequisite task for its applications, such as DEM generation and 3D building model reconstruction. However, the inherent spatial information is implicit in the abundant, densely and randomly distributed point cloud. This paper proposes a novel method to organize point cloud data, so that further analysis or feature extraction can proceed based on a well organized data model. The principle of the proposed algorithm is to segment point cloud into 3D planes. A split and merge segmentation based on the octree structure is developed for the implementation. Some practical airborne and ground lidar data are tested for demonstration and discussion. We expect this data organization could provide a stepping stone for extracting spatial information from lidar data.

In this paper, a continuous contact treatment has been considered during FE-analysis of the sheet metal forming processes. Because the simulation is usually performed stepwise, the status of contact can change suddenly. In case of implicit scheme, the increment of punch stroke can be chosen as large value. For exact assessment of contact force and friction force between die and sheet, the continuous contact treatment is proposed. The virtual surface of sheet metal is modeled by NURBS curves or surfaces in order to calculate exact contact area and penetration depth. From the geometrical evaluation of contact behavior, additional contact pressure is imposed to the element. The deformation of bending process and hydroforming process are analyzed based on this scheme.

이미지 기반 3D 형상 복원에 있어서, 이미지에 보이지 않는 폐색(Occlusion) 영역 부분에 대한 정보가 손실되므로 완전한 복원에 어려움이 있으며, 세밀한 텍스쳐(Texture) 표현이 이루어지지 않고 심한 평활화(Smoothing)나 고립된 노이즈 메쉬(Isolated Noise Mesh) 등 구조적 훼손이 발생한다. 주로 깊은 신경망을 이용하여, 음함수(Implicit Function) 기반 방법은 사전훈련이 완료된 보조 신경망들을 전면부에 배치하거나, Hourglass 등 임베딩(Embedding) 아키텍처를 추가하거나, 또는 표면 법선(Surface Normal)과 같은 환시(Hallucination)를 생성하여 신경망에 입력하기도 한다. 이 논문에서는, 인물의 이미지를 입력받아 색상, 머리카락 및 의상을 포함하는 완전 3D 인간 복원 기술들을 조망해본다.

천수방정식에 대한 불연속 갤러킨 기법 (DG) 모형은 주로 양해법 기반으로 개발되어 적용되어 왔으나, 바닥마찰항의 처리, 과도한 CFL 조건 등의 불리한 점이 지적되어 왔으며, 이로 인하여 실제 적용에서 FDM, FEM 등 다른 고전적인 수치기법과 비교하여 경쟁력을 갖기 어려웠다. 이에 대한 대안으로써, 최근, 불연속 갤러킨 기법에 대한 음해법 기반의 모형이 연구되고 있으며, 다소 복잡한 알고리즘에도 불구하고 적용이 확대되고 있다. 또한, 널리 알려진 바와 같이, 천수방정식의 실제 하도에 대한 적용에 있어 문제점 중 하나는 나비에-스토크스 방정식으로부터 유도할 때 사용된 정수압 가정으로 인하여, 하도의 계단과 같은 불연속 지형에 적용이 용이하지 않다는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 개발된 불연속 갤러킨 음해법에 불연속 지형의 해석을 위한 표면경사법(surface gradient method)을 결합하여 이러한 문제에 효과적으로 대응할 수 있는 기법을 제시하였다. 개발된 모형의 검증을 위하여, 제방 등 하도 구조물 위의 장주기 조석흐름, 홍수파, 계단 등을 포함하는 댐 붕괴류 모의에 적용하고 실용적인 기능성을 검증하였다. 향후 구조물이 많은 국내 하천에 적용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

This paper presents calculated results of the free-surface flow around a Series 60($C_B=0.6$) model. Three-dimensional Navier-Sotkes equations are solved and Baldwin-Lomax algebraic turbulence model is adopted to simulate the high Reynolds-number flow. To reduce computational efforts, velocity components near the wall are extrapolated with a the solved by using the Implicit Approximate Factorization method[2]. The successive-over-relaxation method is used for solving pressure-Poisson equation when obtaining the pressure field projecting the divergence-free velocity field. To simulate the free-surface flows more precisely, the numerical scheme solving the equation for the kinematic boundary condition is very important. In this paper, there numerical schemes are employed and the results are compared with the available experimental data.

In the process of visualizing a point set representing a smooth manifold surface, global illumination techniques can be used to render a realistic scene with various effects of lighting. Thanks to the continuous demand for ray tracing and the development of graphics hardware, dedicated GPUs and programmable pipeline for ray tracing have been introduced in recent years. In this paper, real-time global illumination rendering is studied for a point-set model using ray-tracing GPUs. We apply the moving least-squares (MLS) method to approximate the point set to a smooth implicit surface and render it using global illumination by performing massive ray-intersection tests with the surface and generating shading effects at the intersection point. As a result, a complicated point-set scene consisting of more than 0.5M points can be generated in real-time.

A three-dimensional numerical model of surface buoyant jets with variable density was established. The model uses fully nonlinear, time-dependent, three-dimensional, ${\sigma}$-transformed equations of motion and equation of heat transport. A semi-implicit numerical scheme in time has been adopted for computational efficiency. The model was applied for thermal jets discharging into a stagnant water and the simulated results were compared with a hydraulic experimental data set showing good agreement. Comparative studies of exchange coefficients and stability functions indicated that spatial variation of exchange coefficients should be considered and the existing stability functions should be modified to simulate surface buoyant jets accurately.

In this paper, various reliability analysis methods for calculating a probability of failure are investigated for their accuracy and efficiency. Crude Monte Carlo method is used as a basis for the comparison of various numerical results. For the sampling methods, Importance Sampling method and Directional Simulation method are considered for overcoming a drawback of Crude Monte Carlo method. For the approximate methods, conventional Rackwitz-Fiessler method. 3-parameter Chen-Lind method, and Rosenblatt transformation method are compared on the basis of First order reliability method. As a Second-order reliability method, Curvature-Fitting paraboloid method, Point-fitting paraboloid method, and Log-likelihood function method are explored in order to verify the accuracy of the reliability calculation results. These methods mentioned above would have some difficulty unless the limit state equation is expressed explicitly in terms of random design variables. Thus, there is a need to develop some general reliability methods for the case where an implicit limit state equation is given. For this purpose, Response surface method is used where the limit state equation is approximated by regression analysis of the response surface outcomes resulted from the structural analysis. From the application of these various reliability methods to three examples, it is found that Directional Simulation method and Response Surface method are very efficient and recommendable for the general reliability analysis problem cases.
